why would you need HDMI at all?

DVI is what you'd want on it. sicne it can convert to VGA if you need it to, and most, if not all, HDTVs have at least a VGA in

after they explain stuff they've obviously been told by either commercials OR by an Apple representative I ask them what specs they are paying for....

I put it this way for them.... for 1500 dollars you are buying a computer with an outdated graphics card, a third the memory of my computer the SAME PRICE, a monitor that doesn' have an HDMI port despite Apple saying theyre stuff is HD, and a processor that stopped being used in top of the line PC's 3 years ago...

then I point them at ASUS.... who make AWESOMETACULAR PC's and laptops

If i pay you, can you come and tell my friends that?

Not necessarily. I think you will find that Microsoft are going downhill and Apple are climbing upwards. Apple are becoming more and more popular because everything they create is so easy to use. They aren't complicated like Microsoft are.

What's confusing about Windows? What's any easier about Apple products? You hear this accusation so frequently that you just sort of accept it to be true. I've used many Apple products, including an imac and two mac books, and I really don't see what is so 'easy' about them. They have a user interface with BIGGER icons.

Well that's an advantage over Microsoft because it helps those with poorer eyesight to see the icon better. Seriously, nearly everything Microsoft have done is more complicated than any other brand. If you wanted to look at it from another point of view, you could say that both Apple and Microsoft have their advantages and disadvantages over each other.

So, Microsoft is more complicated...because it's icons are smaller? Do you even realize how retarded that sounds?

I'd like to hear some advantages that Apple has over Microsoft. I'm not saying that there are none. I'd really like to hear some because I never really looked into it.

I absolutly despise the Apple Mac.
I find the PC so much easier to use, with it's, non gay interface. It almost seems that Apple intentionally went out of their way to make everything worse and more problematic for you. And I don't understand how people could find it a easier program to use. They go on about how their drag and drop system is so great, when it is (For Everything I use eg: PS brushes, PS texts, files) Exactly the same.
One thing I always Thought was weird was how they took out the "Delete Key." It isn't a big deal at all, but it just makes me wonder who would have though, at some time, while they were developing the Mac, thought for some strange reason, that it would be a smart move, and in the companies best interest to get rib of the key.

Why are you guys so hard on macs i used one at my uncles and didn't really see a difference between a mac and a pc so quit complaining they will probably drop charges although i do agree about mac being at fault in their ads i never really had a problem with Vista and it seemed like they made a lot of stuff up scratch that all of their stuff up great marketing though it worked really well.

Reasons I hate my Mac and all others Because:
They are gay.
And not only act as if they are not gay. They treat the PC like they are some how worse, all though all there accusations are widely known as lies.

If they suck, they can STFU, and I would just ignore them, but they choice not to, so they are practically asking for hate

useless for games, less customization, OS that is less supported by third parties than Windows, expensive pricing, the fact that it is an Apple product... ect.

Good points Toaster but I never really had trouble with Apple Product in general but the pricing is ridiculous.
