General Chat / New Intel Macs

    Bruckner, you're not looking at the whole picture. If you ever tried OSX, which although you say you have done, I still doubt you have, then you didn't try it with an open mind. Most Mac-haters hate Mac because they've never tried it. That was me a year ago. Then I thought "let's give it a try". I must say that I have enjoyed the benefits of it. But not just the big things, such as not having any spyware, ad-aware, or viruses, but there are lots of small things that I have appreciated. The interface is one of them. The fact that if you press F11, you can see where all your windows are going. The way that when you print, it prints the last page first so you can just take your document at the ready. The way there are constunt software updates to improve on the OS - there's always room for improvement. The way my Mighty Mouse doesn't have buttons - it has touch sensitive. How OSX automatically uses anti-aliasing for text out of the box (for windows, you have to download an add-on). Dashboard is another neat feature. There are just so many things I appreciate that would make me stay at Mac. I'm interested to know what makes you stay at Windows.

    Everything you mentioed as a plus Windows or its software has. Don't tell me I haven't used a Mac. I use new iMac at school for graphic design. I'll give you this, the way it handles Photoshop is neat, I like how it just floats on the background.

    So how are those single-button mice working out for you Mac guys?

    It astounds me that it's 2006 and Apple STILL won't ship a real mouse with the computer. Either they're too cheap to, they think their users are complete idiots, or they're in complete denial that Windows with a 2-button scroll mouse is hella easier to use.

    Yeah, I know you can go buy one and plug it in but why does Apple make you go through that? Just ship one with the product!
