Arguing on the internet is like running in the Special Olympics. Even if you win youre still retarded.

I learned how to use a computer on a Apple II.

Apple was the computer at the start (up to the first Mac) - nobody had anything else

...and when color monitors came out...that was fucking awesome(with the tilt screen) - (and double floppy drives) :)
 
Supra I bet you never thought this thread would inspire such passionate debate. :)

I still think you're going to overpay and could get a much nicer Windows based laptop for the same money but hell when all is said and done we are all just offering our opinions so get whatever makes you happy because in the end that's what's important..Right?
 
My wife has a MAC which she loves but she but windows7 on it. For the price of the mac I could of gotten one hell of a great windows lap top. Macs are over priced.
 
Who cares why he's getting one, like you said it's his money he can do what he wants. He's already got a killer gaming machine so what's the big deal with getting a laptop he likes. It's like condoms, your preference won't necessarily be mine. For instance, I like the ribbed on the inside. Fuck her pleasure, this is for me! lol

Thanks, bro! This is where it's at!

Now, to clear the air, God Damn It... LoL! If any one of you actually believe that I am under the impression that I got some kind of good deal or that technology peaked with this frackin Powerbook, then you need mental help! :)

I certainly did not buy it to replace my gaming system. I bought it because I got a great deal on the damn thing ( see zero down with very extended payment plan ) with all the software I wanted ( and then some ) available on the machine for free. The only other deal the school had at the time that came close to zero down with a similar payment plan was Dell with these little over-sized calculators running Intel Atom chips and Win 7 STARTER edition. What the fuck was I supposed to with that? :rotfl:

Now, this thing suits me fine for being portable and it most definitely suits me fine for all my academic ( and porn ) needs on and off campus. As for all the great deals and all the super systems I could buy for half the price, SHOW ME THE SAME FUCKING SYSTEM FOR ABOUT $15 A MONTH...

As stated, I quit my job to go back to school in order to try and make shit better for my family. That means right now we survive on her paycheck and my side jobs. We are by no means hurting for money, but we certainly don't have the lump sum of money necessary to walk away with a new machine from anywhere else not offering one hell of a payment plan.

But most importantly, I bought the damn thing because I wanted to... And if you don't like it, then bend over and kiss my apple! LoL!

You jump out of fucking planes for a living... Nuff said!



J/K


You know that I highly respect your service, even though you found the most insane way to serve. And I don't have a fucking apple sticker on my truck, you fucking knob-gobbler! When did I ever strike you as being one of those types? Typing all this bullshit and you probably drive a fucking Prius! :)
 
i drive a toyota but it sure as shit aint a prius

 
15 bucks a month? Geezus you're gonna still be paying them long after they've gone out of business.

And I don't know what jumping out of planes has anything to do with having an apple sticker on your car. LULZ to that one.

And by my calculations with 8% APR you should have that MAC paid off in about 10 years. LOL to that one too. Only thing I would pay for for 10 years is a house. Sure as shit wouldn't be a mac or any other computer for that matter. But there prolly is a deal attached like you can trade that one in on a new one. Thats how they get you hooked.

Shit, they gave up on that finance plan real quick. Seems in Cleveland you just can't find enough people with good enough credit and bad enough finances to to fit the fucking deal. I think they got maybe 12 of us at the university before they gave up.

And the thing about the planes was a reference to your lack of basic intelligence. I respect the hell out of your service, bro, but who in the fuck jumps out of a perfectly good airplane voluntarily?
( Of course, I mean that with the utmost respect! ) :)

Yes, Renno, yes... I was truly and realistically calling you a dumbass and saying how stupid you are in real life and all that...

Think about that for a second. It's called sarcasm and I'm sure you've heard of it. I rarely tell someone how much I respect them and then insult them in the same instance. In fact, I can't remember the last time I intentionally did that.

The thing that makes this really ironic for me is remembering you telling me two months ago during my introduction to TBG that I had better have some thick skin because people here like to joke and sometimes it can get a little rough. Well, I obviously have not had a problem with that at all.

However, I do have a problem with not knowing exactly when I can joke with a person and when I can't. It makes for a one of those weird "walk-on-eggshells around this person" environments.

But perhaps, worst for me right now... How in the hell you believe I would really be calling you stupid just perplexes me beyond anything else in life. Staff-mutha-fucking-sergeant in the U fucking S fucking Army, not at all an easy status to attain, not to mention all the specialty shit listed above. Oh, and that little thing about all the respect and admiration for the people that volunteer to go in to harms way and all that...

Fuck it, bro. I still got a lot of respect for ya. But, all that training and all them schools aside, if you honestly believe I was really questioning your intelligence, then maybe you're not so bright after all.
