    Macintosh Web surfers are more educated, make more money and are more Web savvy than PC users

    I'm offended over this survey, but then again, 2+2=1 ? am I right ?

    Seriously, If i think about the ppl I've been supporting that are using macs, and those that are using Pc's.... It is kinda right this report :rolleyes: I've seen a lot more dumb blondes on Pc's than I've seen on Macs

    But how many blonde chix0rs have you seen using *n*x?

    I don't see why Macs are so expensive, they don't seem to do anything faster, they are seriously lacking in tech when it comes to memory or video.
    Seems all they have going for them are the cpus and case styling.
    Gotta love the G4 Cube though.. *lick*

    er no:)

    Last i heard (altho it was a while ago) the G4 chips way outperformed the equivalent pentiums.

    Also, the G4 cubes were crap:) I used one for a good while, and while they looked pretty, they tended to turn off if you so much as waved your hand in the general area of the sexy off switch.

    Mac users are indeed smarter, but of course I already knew that....

    no, you are wrong, but 1+1= 2...

    Given x = 1 and y = 1, we have

    x = y

    Multiplying each side by x

    x^2 = xy

    Subtracting y^2 from each side

    x^2 - y^2 = xy - y^2

    Factoring each side

    (x + y)(x - y) = y(x - y)

    Dividing each side by the common term (x - y)

    x + y = y

    Substituting the given values

    1 + 1 = 1
    or
    2 = 1

    The NeXT cubes were nice.
    Massive expansion cards, like something out of star trek.

    I never said the pentiums out perform the G4, in fact i said the opposite, if you read my post again in that context :)
    And you mean an equivalent clock speeds :)

    Course, it matters nought cos if you want a real cpu you go for an Alpha :)

    pwned
