So I'll just say that OS X is clearly a superior OS to MS Windows, and if more developers and users would realise that (<b>and non-apple PPC hardware was available</b>), the world of computing would be a much better place. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Fixed

    That way, other companies than Apple could make the PPC hardware, making it cheaper as a whole. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    non-apple PPC hardware <b>is</b> available, like <a href='http://browse.to/emerald/review2/peg2review.html' target='_blank'>this</a> for instance. Didn't your mother ever tell you not to fix things that aren't broken? <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    It's there, it sucks compaired to Apple's.
    <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Probably, but it is there.

    That link is a 1Gzh G4.

    And that kind of hardware is rare.

    Let Apple make CPU's like AMD or Nvidia, and give out the specifications to other manufacturers so they can release motherboards and stuff.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Apple doesn't make CPUs, motorola makes the G<i>x</i> line of PPC processors.

    <!--QuoteBegin--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin-->It's not very easy to find PPC hardware, let alone recent PPC hardware unless you get a whole new system from Apple.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Mostly true, but beside the point. The only reason you don't see a whole ton of non-apple PPC motherboards on the market is that OS X won't run on them.

    Yes Depot, thank you for helping me see the errors of my ways. I have now seen the light, IE is clearly better than Firefox. And Windows, with it being dumbed down for old people, who work at home improvement stores, it vastly superior to Linux in almost every way. I mean, adware is like a feature, rite?

    Home Depot isn't a home improvement store, it's a walmart with plywood.

    Yes, yes it is.

    I'd say you're lucky you even got 2 pages out of this one.

    It's like the subject of Combat ... the thread dies off or gets locked ... then it'll pop up a few weeks later.

    Isn't home depot in a quasi-sexual relationship with Walmart anyway these days.

    (In my mind I see sexual orgies involving old women and chubby fat bearded men ala Home Improvement(That old show) )

    Seein' as how Depot used my rant to start a war <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->, let me chime in with my two..

    IE is adware free. It's PEOPLE'S intervention that causes it to get all jacked up. If you can't surf the web with IE without getting 85 thousand active-x plugins installed on it, there's a few courses of action to take..

    One - You're retarded, and your parents need to take your computer away. It'll save the rest of us from hearing you people gripe.

    Two - Learn how to get porn from Kazaa or something.

    Three - Get a Mac, and cut together a Switch video on Final Cut Pro, saying how bad Windows is compared to MacOS, so I can parody it later.



    It may be human nature to find something to b¡tch about, but quit bitching on public forums, and go get a blog you spineless bastards. Sure, in the long run, I won't be able to bank off of you people who's computers are overrun by spy/adware because you don't know how to correctly surf the internet, but the entire internet will thank you for the bandwidth you'll stop wasting.

    ...and yes, I love you all.

    Well, guess what! A majority of users are #1. It's only logical therefore to go the apple way and only give them 1 button (by default). Microsoft is selling cars without seatbelts. Firefox has dual airbags.

    Sometimes my friends and I have the same stupid debates about what kind of contact solution works the best...

    In any case, I say we call this one a draw burry the hatchet.
