It's one of my favourites in the English language. My favourite French words are both very silly fruits.


Sounds like something rude :shock:

I voted 'no' - if you don't like it, don't look at it :)

Every sensible person knows that mac are rubbish. So why would anybody want to debate anything with somebody who is not sensible? No debates are necessary. And let's ban all mac users too, they don't bring anything to the society.

Then why aren't you all Geography teachers ;)

TBH.... I don't care, I have a go for a laugh but only because I know I will have a mac when I can afford one.... and a PS3 to add to my pc/wii/360/dsi/psp collection

Fanboys are just people who don't earn enough to own the competition ;)

There's something in that. Another thing to remember is that many Mac users also use the competition - by choice or not. We know about the strengths and weaknesses, and choose according to experience and need. Macs or PCs are just tools, and it's great to have the choice, don't you think?

My thoughts exactly. Hit the "Report" button and get them banned, I say. Problem solved, for a while.

It's why I have so many games consoles, I don't want to be limited because I don't have something.

Would I like to own a Canon DSLR on top of my Sony Alpha? Of course, but for budget can't afford it and the features I am missing I don't miss much tbh

Same with PS3 exclusive games atm and owning a Mac, although those I will change soon

At least then I wouldn't be a fanboy as such but merely have a preference based on the use I have had

Mac Vs PC
Xbox Vs PS3
GM Vs Ford
BluRay Vs HD-DVD
Mega Drive Vs SNES
Betamax Vs VHS
Chalk & Slate Vs Lead & Paper


Same old argument, different product.

The level to which some fanboys will take the fight to astonishes me. Even on this forum. I'm amazed really and I can only assume that those who wish to defend a product with such enthusiasm must be invested in it somehow. If not then why bother? Never mind those who at any given opportunity attack a product.

If there's any kind of "while" to be going on around here, it really should be a "little while" in deference to Joss.

The normal debates are irrelevant. I'm not wedged enough to afford a Mac when a PC does the same stuff for less money. I'm not a hater or a fanboy. I'm just skint.
