really? Considering I've built over 20 PCs, maintain a network at work (wireless and ethernet), and I've modified, overclocked, and been doing tons of **** with computers since I was 10, scored extremely high in the ACT, 99th percentile in every category with the exception of grammar, and I love tinkering/tweaking/modding things, I'd say you don't have the slightest ****ing clue who I am, or the slightest inkling as to how intelligent I am.

Simple minds? Well apparently most of these mac 'simpletons' have a higher education than the average PC user, and have a higher income level. So yeah, they must be really ****ing stupid.

But yeah, Macs are so 'simple'. They're so retarded, if only we were all still using 1.4 meg floppies and serial connectors! Wouldn't that be great! And we wouldn't have any of these things either:
The Trackpad: Apple started using it with the PowerBook 500 Series in 1994. Now it's standard on all laptops, Mac or DOS.
TrueType Fonts: They were Apple TrueType fonts. Apple, yes, our favourite fruit company, started it first. It's now virtually standard on all PCs.
The first complete laptop: I'm talking about a laptop that does not have the hard drive and co as a separate bump, but rather integrated with the whole machine. It debuted with the PowerBook 100.
The floppy disk's birth: Apple used the 3.5" floppy disk instead of the 5.25" one.
The floppy disk's death: Apple killed it in 1997 - the floppy was rapidly becoming a technological joke. These days, hardly anyone uses disks anymore.
FireWire: Apple and TI (Texas Instruments) came up with this killer solution to the difficult world of SCSI in 1996, 'implanted' it in Macs beginning in 1999, and heaven knows what a success story this has been.
A fully workable GUI that just works from the first mouse click - manuals not needed. Need I say more?

"Oooh look at how cheap this beige windows machine is I can afford it even with my tiny wage and GED! Windows is better than Macs anyway because I can download more porn and games!!! Plus I can make fun of macs even though I've never used one, and make it quite clear how ignorant I am! Yay!"
