Yeah, it's not like every windows computer has a rin -3 vulnerability built in that give anyone access to the computer, the hardware, andthe firmware.

Joy of Tech comic strip: http://i64.tinypic.com/21lvr4j.png Nobody said that Windows is better. If anything, Linux is the only one that's truly any good when it comes to security. However, with sandboxed apps, a built-in anti-virus, UAC and SmartScreen in the browser, it's making more of an effort than Apple is IMO. Security experts have already stated that most of the Windows issues would be remedied by making it harder to obtain administrative rights and that simply means tweaking UAC. If people needed to do more than just press OK when something wants to install itself covertly, Microsoft could solve a lot of problems. Also, say what you will about forced updates but they're a good thing considering how many stupid, stupid people still exist. While most of us know how important it is to update, the majorty believes that their time is too precious and the end result is that the rest of the world has to suffer for their laziness. |

I really feel sorry for Mac users and hope that they'll find a cure for their mental illness soon. |

Mac users and Linux users can never change their habits even if their machine can't do the things that modern computer users need. This is mostly true with Linux users who needs an excuse not to do something useful by simply saying "This can't be done in Linux". You need Windows. They keep telling us that super computer users are using Linux so it must be good; How many users actually need Super Computers for day to day work? They can't answer this. Hey, leave them alone and let them remain stupid until they realise the world has moved and they have remained behind so it is time to go to Taliban caves and become terrorists.

You're too kind :-) I bought an iMac to get stuff done when my time was money - something that was becoming increasingly difficult on Windows machines. Also, at the time (2008), iMac's were one of the few near-silent reasonably powerful PCs available for something approaching reasonable money. While I do have Windows PCs they rarely get used - rarely see the need. -- Cheers, Rob |

My tenant asked me to fix her Macbook Air which has the 3 beep problem, bad ram. Apparently this is very common on the Macbook Air. When I took it apart I was amazed at how cheaply it was made. The RAM is soldered directly onto the logic board. So you can't upgrade it, change it, replace it, fix it, or remove it. So much for the Mac being any type of superior product. Macs requires premium prices when you buy but they are built with the cheapest lowgrade parts. Older PCs can be fixed or upgraded easily but the Mac is a throwaway if anything goes wrong. Mac users are suckers if they think what they are buying is a quality product. |

While I do have Windows PCs they rarely get used - rarely see the need. The word "power" and Macs do not go together. My mom has a fairly recent Mac Mini and even with 8GB of RAM, that thing is so sluggish that it's embarrassing. I imagine the fact that Apple is cheap enough to continue selling that hardware with HDs in an era when everyone else has at least an SSD/HD hybrid is a part of it and no, it's not up to my parents to shell out _more_ money to remedy Apple's decision. |
