This one promotes file sharing. Isn't file sharing illegal?

Theres a loop hole that allows the sharing of uncopyrighted material.

Only if the material is copyrighted. There's nothing illegal about me sharing a photo file with you of a picture I took.

A video encouraging homosexual midget porn is bound to go down a treat with some of the people on here. :p

I hate the real Mac Commecials (ones in the link are hilarious). The real ones suck. "Everything kind of works with a Mac." BULLSHIT!!!! Try installing any game on a Mac and see what happens. Nothing works with a Mac!!!

Macintosh is the devil. Why do you think the logo is an apple with a bite taken out of it? Obviously a reference to Satan's participation in Adam and Eve's expulsion from the Garden of Eden.

They have improved over the last 5 years... just watch out for overdownloading on Windows and it is better.

Mac's can get viruses; in fact, they're very vulnerable to them. The reason they don't is because no one uses them, so no virus writer bothers with them.

I know that fact. I just had to write that quote down.

I know you knew that. I just wanted to get the facts out.

See, Mac bashing works best when it's a team effort. ;)

well, it depends on the interfacing method they are using... and whether or not they are using protection but looks like they are using a simple handshaking method that should keep them Virus free.


then again, it does matter if they are using a backdoor entry with the owner's permission and how brazen they are about the sharing.


Oh, and as for your title, looks like they have everything in Hand... so to speak.

Think about it a bit. Mac talks about how you can run Windows and all Windows software on a Mac? That, uh, sounds like viruses would work too. Don't tell me it'll only affect the Win portion of your computer, either, because melting your motherboard will screw up both.

Besides, buying a Mac and saying it's a better system is like buying a Dell and saying "Dude, I'm gettin' a Dell" all the time. If that's your preference, keep it to yourself. Don't be pretentious.
