    If you think about it, Apple has been using the same kind of "childish" advertising tactics for years... And they work.

    I'm a Mac and PC user. Anyone who says Vista sucks, has clearly never used it before. It had a few compatibility issues in the first few months, now, nothing is wrong with it.

    Lol WOW. Just shows microsoft is getting desperate. Everyone knows macbooks are more expensive that your paying for quality rather than a crap PC.

    So you're saying that that it is worth paying 2x more for a small qaulity differance. I have never had a hardware faliure on any of the PCs I have owned so the qaulity can't he that much better.

    Yes, I did a few months after it was released but then the complaints stopped because manufacturers released driver updates and software developers updated there applications to work with vista.

    If all of you would read, it would be great

    I said it is childish to target another company specifically, saying windows is cheap is good advertising, saying APPLE MACS are too expensive is childish. Apple's ad campaign is also childish

    Furthermore, Microsoft does not make hardware, if we would compare the price of windows vista home premium and Mac OS 10.5

    Vista = $259
    OS X= $129

    Software wise, mac is cheaper. A hardware comparison devices the public into thinking window is cheaper, where as it is actually more expensive.

    Nu uh, still slow-ish on my MacBook (Vista Ultimate using 2GB RAM bootcamped) I definitely would prefer XP or Win 7 anyday compared to Vista. It just seems so slow to me.

    The Amount Power from the Mac you get for the a price. And the Amount of power from the Pc for the same price is much more.

    Pc's Are cheap. And Great. And Many can take Hackint0Sh.

    Macs, Look the part, Are Great, But Cost Far to much.

    I do have to say though, That Microsoft has been making some decent commercials with all these young kids saying "Im a PC"

    Well, At least I like them somewhat.

    EDIT: 1,000TH POST (Happy to say I didn't try spamming to get it too, [UNLIKE MOST MEMBERS])
