[MOCK]Yeah dude. Like MAC cases are way better than PC cases man, cuz they got that side thing that opens. PC cases suck compared to MACs man. Even though "PC" isn't a company and there are 50 trillion manufacturers of PC ATX cases out there, making this comparison absolutely impossible. [/MOCK]

Also, see these comments made by some of Rob's buddies over at MACnn forums.

Ca$h reaks havok over all internet forums like a plauge — screaming women and children run from this monster as authorities try to block him from their cities with special files that include his address! Yet he keeps respawning anew; creating controversy and leaving chaos in his wake! Experts suggest that his course is likely to lead him from the City of Mac Zealots to the State of PC Elitists... and then onwards to STRONGBADIA!!! We can only pray that Trogdor gets to him, before even he is Ca$hinated!!

However, I do feel obliged to point out that by capitalizing "MAC" you really did manage to hit on a pet peeve of most Mac users. "Mac" is a diminutive, not an acronym; capitalizing it like that is taken in most Mac circles to signify that you are intentionally trying to make people angry. It often works, if that's your goal. Just a minor point of etiquette that you may wish to take note of in the future.

Besides which, MAC really is a kind of network address. It stands for Media Access Control, and has been a part of the Ethernet standards since the very beginning. This use of the term actually predates the Apple Macintosh.
Notice my capitalization of MAC in this thread.

Regarding the Mac... I think people like Ca$h actually hurt the platform.

Quite hilarious, aren't they?

Let's see. If I can count correctly, that would be 1 program.

And I'm the one who's yapping about things I know nothing about.
