I have always been very anti-mac (mainly because my dad worked for IBM for over 20 years) however, I've been using macs a little bit at work, and have even had to support them.....I'm not a mac hater anymore (but you won't catch me on one of thoes "I switched" mac commericals either). I like the OSX, they have a nice GUI, but i can't imagine switching.
ever.
and as far as games go....there is a reason the XBox was built from PC parts. |

Alright!
I am seeing the nimbers, and they are good thus far.
After all, a styrafoam cup has a lot of versatility. |

My honest advice: NEVER USE A MAC. I honestly can't give you an honest opinion on this, since I've never owned a Mac, but frankly, I never hope to own one.
Ask Howkeye, he named his firstborn "Macsrtrash.  " (his firstborn personality that is, his first born son hasn't seen his first day yet.  ) |

| If you rubbed it on the right surface, you could generate static electricity a VERY inexpencive generator. Then you can get charged up, and touch someone in the room - A very good wepon! Especially if you touch them when they're not expecting it. So I think in these ways a styrofoam cup is way better! |

Yeah, and besides, you can pour water into a crumpled styrafoam cup, and watch it flow out!
Also, while it is fun to destroy macs (i.e. throw them down the stairs, throw them at a cat etc.) this is discussing macs as a gaming system. I can't MAKE myself have fun when I'm on a mac.  |

Hehe... They have potatoe launchers, sock launchers, so why not a mac launcher?
Also, considering all the (excellent) anti mac sentiment, check out this site. http://www.powlus.net/macintrashin/
