My highschool was all macs and I spent about 50% of my free time fixing them and working with them (Apple Classic series). I then moved to 386-equivalent line of Macs, then supported PowerPC, etc. etc. etc... Need I go on? Look, your apple wouldn't exist if Mr. Bill Gates didn't inject close to $500 mill when Mac was on its death bed. And what did loyal Mac users say??? No, it wasn't "thank you" - it was more Bill-bashing. Whatever.

Bill gates wouldnt exist if it werent for apple, and he only put 150 mil in non voting shares of stock.

Originally posted by fr0st dont forget the windows operating system was heavly influenced by the mac OS. Notice the start menu and the apple share some similarities. I dont think either company could be where its at without the other..

Are you an idiot? Windows is just a cheap SHIT ripoff of Mac OS, fuck, do your fucking research and then post facts. The only reason why windows is where its at is cuz apple made a deal with M$ so that they could use some features of Mac OS in trade for every mac coming with internet exploDer.

That being said:

Im gonna agree with CynepMeH about consumer puppets. IPODS ARE FOR TRENDWHORES who dont know a good product even if it slapped them in the face *cough*sonyHD3orriokarmaoririver*cough*

Im an apple user, and i love my mac, but this apple pwns all shit is JUST FUCKING LAME.

Give me a fucking BREAK!

For one thing i was trying to make a quick mac windows correlation, that even a person with the most minimal mac experience would reconize. And without microsofts brilliant marketing the windowed operating system would have taking a much longer time to grab the vast majority of consumers of the time. Do not attack me with hostility and make your self look like a idiot...

Bill gates was a genius when it came to getting his business working, but he did work for apple for a short period of time. From this he got most of his ideas for windows, at least how to impliment them. If i remember my history correct.

quote:

Graphical User Interface (GUI) The GUI had its roots in the 1950s but was not developed until the 1970s when a group at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) developed the Alto, a GUI-based computer. The Alto was the size of a large desk, and Xerox believed it unmarketable. Jobs took a tour of PARC in 1979, and saw the future of personal computing in the Alto. Although much of the Interface of both the Lisa and the Mac was based (at least intellectually) heavily on the work done at PARC, and many of the engineers there later left to join Apple, much of the Mac OS was written before Job's visit to PARC. When Jobs accused Bill Gates of Microsoft of stealing the GUI from Apple and using it in Windows 1.0, Gates fired back: No, Steve, I think its more like we both have a rich neighbor named Xerox, and you broke in to steal the TV set, and you found out I'd been there first, and you said. "Hey that's no fair! I wanted to steal the TV set! The fact that both Apple and Microsoft had gotten the idea of the GUI from Xerox put a major dent in Apple's lawsuit against Microsoft over the GUI several years later. Although much of The Mac OS is original, it was similar enough to the old Alto GUI to make a "look and feel" suit against Microsoft dubious.

Hah! The fact that you put that in your arguement loses all credibility. Sony makes the worst fucking mp3 players on the market, they are all shit. Iriver is genius, and Rio isnt half bad, but god why the fuck did you mention sony?

Sony has shit products? Okay, well then look at this:

CLICK HERE YOU, SHEEP

Its WAY smaller than the iPod, and if I had the money, this would be the HD-MP3 to get....only problem is, Sonys marketing sucks, so noone knows about it. But thats also good, because if i ever go back to HD-mp3, i wont be a trendwhore loser.
