:ohsnap::woot:

One more thing to say.... :lame: ok.. maybe two... :poop::stupid::worthless: alright so that is a few things... but I loath Macs with a passion... LOL

lol I built my own computer... something you Mac boys really can't do so well eh? :P... but aside from that... I have virus protection built into the CPU on my machine... as well as some of the best and tightest security around. Comes with the territory.... Besides... I know of a few good virus scripts that can shut down a mac pretty quick LOL

When your PC crashes from a virus Ill still be here typing away, and when you open up your computer and see all the mess of wires, please dont call me crying. :D

Firewall will never allow the virus to enter, also everything is backed up on the server in the house. Along with another external HD. Plus Norton has yet to fail me :D

As far as building a comp, thats cool, I am not that knowlagable, but I work for CompUSA so I probly paid MUCH less then you think. Plus I am big into Music and graphics and a Mac is the way to go for me.

As far as the wire thing I stated If you have ever seen the internals of a mac you would understand. No worries I still love you in a man crush sort of way :P

lol I have seen the inside and I know what you mean, but the old comparison for music and graphics from mac to pc... is well dead isssue now. I mean 75% of graphics cards in pc's now are capable of doing anything a mac can do. Mine... is well... above and beyond most mac's dreams.... lol but I paid about $550 for the card alone.

That is more then I paid for my whole comp including the upgrades ;)

LOL.... :lol2: Yeah.. I spent a small fortune on my system... but ur mac can't touch my PC.... :P
