end of xp in a month and 11 days? I think

Okay Microsoft fan boys, here's a pure fact. Bill Gates was a staff member at Apple who was later fired and stolen ideas and concepts from Apple to create Windows. So if it wasn't for Apple then your operating system would of never of existed. Also when Apple was going bust it was because of bad management, it was infact Steve Jobs who returned to Apple and saved them by creating the iPod. Microsoft had nothing to do with it.

Apple > Microsoft and everyone knows it. Even Windows developers use Mac OS to develop things like widgets and GUIs, just go to a Windows convention and you'll soon see.

A lot less than what he stole in the first place. The only reason Bill Gates invests into Apple is to get friendly with them, otherwise he'd be completely left broke as he'd no longer have access to the latest ideas and projects.

It's not long before Microsoft will be knocked to the ground by a combination of Apple and Google. It's been long coming but will happen soon.

Why are you calling us fan boys, you're a Mac fanboy?

Apple make overpriced junk. They glam everything up. Why buy an iPod for say 250 pounds when you can get a better mp3 player for 40 pounds?

Also, how many windows conventions have you been to?

You said he stole ideas, not money. Please keep with the tenses, he INVESTED not invests. Why would Google merge with something? It's rich and sucessful as it is.

Also, Microsoft takes a step ahead with their Microsoft Surface.

I love that article though, "XP will seize to exist." Cease.

I agree with overpriced but not junk, and also the iPod statement isn't correct

I don't have to go to them, simply watch them online. Also if I'm a Mac fan boy then you are a Micky fanboy, simple as. Apple price their products perfectly. Sure the original product is highly priced however software and OS are extremely cheap. You are more likely to spend more money filling a Windows computer than you are a Mac. For instance the Vista Ultimate is $319 from the Microsoft website while Mac OS X Leopard is only $129 from the Apple website. There alone you're saving hundreds, and before anyone says "the Home edition is cheaper" the fact of the matter is Mac OS X is the full edition, which Ultimate is so they compare. Even the Home edition if more expensive and it's limited.

I feel more at home using windows, partly because i've used it all my life and macs feel very cheap when you use them, the clicks and the mouse are all kind of 'bubbly'

I think they'd sell better if they put a toy computer in the same case. Why not? It'd still look expensive and top class.

The point is mac users are mostly show offs, the people who use them for design work say they're better. They're no better than a windows, you can get the same software almost all the time, there's much more for windows.

Also the depreciation of macs are incredible, a windows will last you a good deal longer too as it isn't as limited as a mac.

Apple is like a fasion statement, but a fake version of a great brand. Like Gucci, fashion icon but you get the fake ones don't you?

Out of 10,000 mac users taking a servey, 86% of them were gay or bisexual ;)

There's no point arguing with him, he doesn't even have the maturity to respect what we're saying. Not only that but everytime someone proves him wrong he moves onto a new 'Point' and then has the cheek to call people MS Fan boys?

Google would never begin a large partnership with anyone, they're friendly with everyone just so they get their own way. If they made tie's with Apple it could halt a Google OS in the future, Google just can't risk chucking away MS Users and limiting it's future.

Hardly anyone has a legal version of Vista Ultimate anyway so it's unfair to include it. It's only $319 for an upgrade anyway, it's much cheaper when you buy or build a computer which is what over 90% of users do.
