[...] I keep coming back to the notion that most people really don’t have any particular desire to switch operating systems. If Windows 7 lives up to its promise and expectations, it’ll leave fewer Windows users tempted [...]

I don’t use Macs but since the most tech-savvy people I know use Unix machines and Macs are based on BSD, I’d disagree strongly that anyone using Macs don’t know how to do anything.

So once again, as I said previously, you’re an idiot. The fact that you spent >$1000 to build a PC to play games when there are comparable alternatives for less than a 1/3 of that illustrates that fact quite clearly.

After I switched the southbridge of my HP Pavilion tx1000, affected by the Nvidia issue that nobody wants to talk about, but everyone is experiencing 18 months after buying that laptop, the voice of the technician in the service center quietly came out. And I was astonished. He said simply two words, and an explanation.

“Buy Toshiba”.

Why? Cooling systems, in his experience, are all scaled down, except in Toshiba laptops. Even Apple’s are scaled down, and they DO NOT COOL LAPTOPS PROPERLY. So, if it is an advice of someone who has repaired hundreds of laptops, I’m going to take it, and I suggest you to take it too. And Toshiba hasn’t paid me a buck for this.

What System 7 will primarily do is to stem the tide of defectors. It wouldn’t necessarily result in Mac users going back to Windows “but” here is reality. The percentage of Mac users that are Windows literate is much higher than the reverse. As a result, if System 7 proves to be even 80% as good most Mac user wouldn’t have too many qualms using it if they need it. The same can’t be said about the remaining Windows users, if System 7 works then why would they change?. So will Apple loose market share? Who knows particularly as Apple has integrated its other products so smoothly into its OS. What’s certain is that the OSX user base wouldn’t be growing much if at all. Of course that could all change if Snow Leopard changes the computing speed paradigm.

For most people who’ve recently switched to a Mac, switching back to Windows means either purchasing new hardware to replace new hardware or purchasing an unnecessary additional operating system. I don’t think there are many people who see the economic sense in either one. I certainly don’t.

Alex Crawford Says: “I’ve built myself a top end gaming machine for half the price of the relatively poorly spec’ed MacBook Pros, and with windows 7 there’s no contest really. Sorry Mr Jobs, you’ve had £1600 of my money but you won’t be getting any more.”

And for a fraction of the cost (and hassle you) spent on that gaming PC, you could have bought a game console. Why would anyone waste that much time and effort on a machine just to play games? You’re an idiot.

You have obviously never had a good pc gameing machine. Xbox is alright but absolutly nothing compared to an 800 dollar gameing pc. let alone a 2500 dollar machine. The resoulution, antialising and framerates rip xbox apart. not to mention the available use of cuda. I rip whole dvds from dvds to mp4 in around 15 min. But let me tell you i wish i had spent the 2500 dollars to get a base priced mac tower and another 200 just to put windows on it. then i would still have less power than my 800 dollar rig i built in an hour and have never had a crash. Just Kidding ill stick with my rig. :). better equpment better warranty ( lowest warrenty on my system is a factory replacement 3 year) and I didnt have to pay an additional 300 for it ;)Macs bite the big one.

Ps if you dont know how to do anything with a computer and have more money than brains then you are a mac. hope you dont want blue ray or media on your tv. lol
