		<description>you truly are a moron...run along now back to your Crapintosh and continue jerking off to your grandiose flights of fantasy.  Believe me I&#039;d like nothing better than to step on you like the P.O.S you are.   </description>

		<description>Amazing that you think of Apples OS as &quot;ripped off&quot;. You need a history lesson. Apple innovated early desktops and was soon copied by MS, if you don&#039;t believe me you can check your newspaper archives and read about the lawsuits.</description>

		<description>Aww, macs can have issues... but not often. I have had to rebuild many windows systems, and have lost endless amounts of data. I no longer use the system hard drive for data on windows computers. I administer a computer lab at a university by the way, I just thought I&#039;d add that before you told me I didn&#039;t know computers.</description>

		<description>Every USB keyboard I have seen has two USB ports on it so you can plug the USB mouse and another device into the keyboard, taking up only one USB plug on the computer for three devices.

Yeah, there&#039;s a slight chance that someone&#039;s USB printer and/or scanner may not be supported by OS X. In my experience working in a mixed platform environment and in helping over 2 dozen people switch, I have run into no incompatable USB printers and one incompatable USB scanner.

There&#039;s a much higher chance that someone&#039;s Windows box is infested with malware.</description>

		<description>There are plenty of used macs that you can pick up very cheap for you to test out.  Look around on the net or your local computer store or newspaper.  It wouldn&#039;t be nearly as fast as a new machine but would give you an idea of why people who use macs love them so much.  Maybe then you&#039;d find a way to afford a new or newer mac.</description>

		<description>I got in a fight with a Mac user once....I beat the crap out him with his own IPod. Then shot him in the thigh just to watch him squeal and flop around...he called me a young, ignorant, gamer punk.  Oh wait....I was playing GTA San Andreas.</description>

		<description>Having purchased OS X 10.3.0 over a year ago, I am now using 10.3.7, paying nothing to get there, and getting revamped versions of Safari, iCal, iTunes, GarageBand, Address Book, Mail, more verbose Network &amp; system options - the list goes on.

Apple may not send them out, but my OS didn&#039;t critically NEED any of the updates either - nothing was crashing unexpectadly, nor were any third party devices, software or otherwise causing conflicts. Beside a monthly security patch (always lower than 1MB to &#039;sit through&#039; downloading), Apple&#039;s updates have only expanded on functionality, not an inherent lack of it... unlike the SP&#039;s i keep HAVING to install on my windows box two metres to the left, in order to feel confident having it positioned on my LAN with a continuous high-speed connection.</description>

		<description>uh...prone to crashing?  Sure sounds like every Windows machine I&#039;ve ever used.  What&#039;s nice is when they do crash (because they are still running on Microsoft WINDOWS), the Mac OS is still just fine.  As for pear shapes, they look far more like pears on a Mac than a Windows machine.</description>

		<description>I have used both Windows and Macs for years.  The Macs are better in practically every way. It sounds like the first poster in this thread barely gave it a chance.  Try it for a month and I guarantee you won&#039;t feel the way you do now.  Maybe you&#039;re just to cheap or stubborn to accept that you made the wrong choice in  computers in Windows. You&#039;ll never know what your missing unless you give it more of a chance dude.</description>
