Any Other Mac Users?

Post by gavtodd71 »

So i was at work a little while ago and my boss offered to sell me a really nice titanium power book for very little. And i was like WOAH i got to try this thing out. Ive been using it for a month now and have fallen in love. The operating system is extremely nice to use. Expose and dashboard are probably the most usefully computer applications i have ever tried.

Anyhow i was wondering if anyone else uses a mac, and if you guys know of any good free software for it. What do you think?

YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!!! It was said you would destroy the Macers, not join them! You were supposed to bring balance to the geeks, not leave us in darkness!

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.

*slowly backs away from thread*

Queens Of The Stone Age-Someone's In The Wolf

Once you're lost in twillights's blue
You don't find your way, the way finds you...

Tempt the fates, beware the smile
It hides all the teeth, my dear,
What's behind them...

So glad you could stay
Forever

He steps between the trees, a crooked man
There's blood on the blade
Don't take his hand

You warm by the firelight, in twilight's blue
Shadows creep & dance the walls
He's creeping too..

So glad you could stay
Forever

Gavin, you should join the Honourable Organization of Mac Operators.
I hear they throw tastefully decorated dinner parties.

I was going to get a MAC but then I decided I wanted to be able to get software for my computer.

Thats the only real downside though. Macs are far better than PCs.

That's a big matter of opinion. I enjoy actually being able to troubleshoot my computer when it's doing bad things. :P

1 downside vs 0 upsides. It STILL loses.

You really believe that? Technically, Windows comes with everything I "need".
