That's hilarious, and he is defnitely right about the Mac users.
But I actually happen to have no problem with Windows 7. I've got 64-bit and with my hardware set-up it's extremely fast.

i'v just installed windows 7, its pretty good and smarter than vista but im still getting used to the transition..

as for big macs, not really that satisfying... go with the angus burgers or double quarter pounders! or if you at that manly level, go for the Pounder!! so good but so bad that when you eat one, you die! and on your next life, you will only have a fraction of it, owing the rest to God as a debt repayment for what you've done for such gluttony!




im crazy.


not.


nah i am..




i am!

anywho... whatdya guys think? worth the upgrade to w7?
i think i might, my mrs lappy could use the free memory, my lappys pretty new so its not so bad but im thinking w7 is the way to go...

u guys seen pricespy?

btw, if u wanna buy w7, go to a retailer and ask for an OEM version, tell them your building a computer, will save you heaps, but you can oonly do a fresh install


so worth it

The newer windows operating systems are only crap if you've got povo hardware.

Macs are fashion statements, windows are complex operating system with good and bad points and linux distros are sophisticated but often not beginner friendly....thats how I see it, just use whatever serves your purpose best.



Also....Quarter pounder = :hoover:

Been running 7 for a while now. Its ok. Quicker than Vista. Mind you, it took me a day to make it look like an operating system should. I sorta had to learn it, Im deploying a couple of thousand machines with it on for clients :?
