My motto is if it doesn’t work on the Mac, it’s not worth using. Joe went on, blubbering and flubbering about how much money he saved, and how Macs were only for unemployed artists and college dropouts. At this point I got up from my seat and moved to another table. The lesson? Unless someone owns a Mac, he or she is not worth talking to.
hahaha. oh wow.

In fairness, it's completely true. I just can't take and appreciate comments given about macs unless people have actually used them for more than 20 minutes, or they only use them in school because that is all they have or something. The likes of Bertster7 has a genuine opinion to comment considering he's in the their tech support, but a ton of comments around here can be backed with no personal evidence.

...did you read it? its not really like that at all.

i'll be the first to admit that mac dominates portable computers, but they fail horrendously at desktops--which are designed to be user expandable.

what this guy is essentially saying is that bar none, all nonmac users are idiots not worth talking to. his example of choice is some random schlub who just struck up a casual conversation and had very valid points towards not using a mac, while this guy was a total cockwad to him.

When I read the story, I got the impression that he was saying "If your computer isn't white and glossy, your a moron."

He also comes across as completely stubborn, like he doesn't even want to hear anything from you unless your agreeing with him.

What? People who don't own a Mac aren't worth talking to because they clearly are stupid and have no idea what they're talking about? Get your head out of your ass. Yes, a lot of people don't like Apple for no 'real' reason, however did you ever stop to think that it maybe due to the rediculously smug attitude that seemingly all Apple users have? There is a reason why people don't hate Dell users; because they realise that it's just a fucking computer.

I agree, Macs are all good and stuff, I prefer them, but this? A complete douchebag, Bernadictus does not even get to his knees (which is a good thing)

i hope so. but he's really bad at it. the goal of satire is to be obvious whilst maintaining an air of subtlety, which he sorta did, but not really. assuming it is in fact satire.

So their opinions aren't valid? They have to use them daily for hours, and if they still don't like them their opinion just doesn't count, or is still misinformed somehow?

To me Macs are like drugs.

I know many people with them, theres good arguments to use/take them...

But in the end theyre too expensive. And im doing pretty good in life without it

I dont care what O/S your using, use what you want, but please dont bitch to me about how much more awesome a mac is than a PC.

Macs are so fucking expensive!! Maybe if college students didn't HAVE to buy a Mac they wouldn't have to bitch about eating ramen all the time...

It doesn't necessarily have to be obvious. A lot of people thought Jonathan Swift was serious.

actually they've become significantly cheaper. with an education discount an entry macbook will only run you $999, which isn't really that awful for the hardware its running. still not the greatest price ever, but much better than it used to be.

He thrives on people reacting angrily to him. If everyone ignored him, this stupidity would shrivel up.

(Also this proves, sadly, that our great state isn't immune to idiots.)
