Official Mac vs. PC vs. Linux Thread

Lets do it!

This is going to get messy!

Posted by echosystm on Jun-20-2009 08:32:

Linux is for elitists who never do any real work... because when they AREN'T trying to get their PC working, they realise none of their software is available on Linux anyway.

Macs are for hipster gays. Particularly Macbooks, which lack a 2nd mouse button, home key and end key. Shits retarded.

Real people use Windows. YAY CONFORMITY.

/Thread. This does not belong in the COR. BYE2U!

ChrisJizm, you've been here since May. You don't get to make 'offical' threads.

Please calm down immediately.

No it's not Hasn't been for years.

The hardware is Intel (ie PC) and the OS is now Linux based. Fail on all accounts.

Why do you need one when you can just put two fingers on the pad and click the giant button

Posted by Fledz on Jun-20-2009 14:36:

Because you should be stroking your penis with your left hand. Using it to push buttons defeats the purpose.

I run all 3 OSs in my house.

My main computer is my macbook pro, which I love. I used to rag on OSX a ton, but I tried it out and now when I go to a windows machine I miss things like expose and quicksilver.

I run a quad-core windows machine (which used to by my main machine) for gaming and other random windows only stuff.

My fileserver is ubuntu server and sits headless in my basement. I just boot to it and then ssh in from another computer to do anything.

I used to run ubunutu desktop on my old alienware laptop and I liked it a lot. I never had any problems with it that prevented me from doing things.

That's what I'm saying. Unless you only have one finger on your right hand

Yea, using a PC laptop with a track pad drives me nuts now...

I always hit the right click just cause I expect there to be one button.

Ctrl/Double Finger-Click is so much easier.

So is two finger scrolling... I hate the trackpad scrolls that are just on the side of the pad.

seriously guy?... seriously?

why do you need to do all that when you could just push ONE button instead? As I said, shits retarded and having a bigger button for your uncoordinated hands is no excuse lol.

"why have a home key when you can just push shift+ctrl+letter". more to the point, why have any non-function keys at all? lets just make a keyboard with 5 buttons and make every character out of an elaborate key combination. AWESOME!

its not bad, lol i always found it more akward to right click with a normal track pad anyways

also there are very few times in OSX that you have to right click anyways...

its a whole different design paradigm. Mac has always been more focused on keyboard movements and less on precise mousing. Stuff like Quicksilver, and Expose are a testament to that. I throw my mouse down the to lower left corner of the screen and it shows me all my windows. I need to launch something I double tap the command key and type the name of the first few letters of the app and press enter.

I type faster than I mouse anyways.
