3. Heh. We do have a Mac desktop for my work and a PC laptop for Mr. Brickbat's games. |
|
We bought a PC built for gaming and it's still frustratingly crashy and buggy. I'm betting our next laptop won't be a PC.

All work related. Both have their pros and cons so I don't understand the mac vs pc wars. There's no such thing as a perfect computer.

7. I have a second computer, a 4 year old Mac Book Pro. Both that and my brand spanking |
|
new iMac are both fabulous. My husband switched from PC to Mac this year. The only reason we'd fire up his PC is to see how a website we'd be designing looks on an old clunky PC.

8. When we had a Mac, we also had a PC in the house |
|
However, once the Mac crashed & burned a few months after the warranty expired, we went back to PCs only.

9. Thing is, not every program can run on a Mac |
|
And sometimes we need a good PC that won't take up HD space.

10. One Mac I bought my Sweetie which goes unused, a gazillion PC's |

So much for Mac superiority. If you can't right click, you must quit.......

There is a way to set the mouse in preferences so you can right click with it. The one click is just the factory settings.

17. Both of mine are Macs. |
|
Though I've retired my eMac. Finally boxed it up and stowed it in my storage locker after keeping nearby while I made sure everything transferred over to my new iMac. It did.
My Logitech mouse with two buttons and a scroll wheel is now on its third computer - Old PC, eMac and iMac.

19. iMac, MacBook, and iPad here. |
|
iMac and iPad are mine, MacBook is the boyfriends (formerly mine too)
Only use a PC at work because they don't use macs. I have Parallels with windows xp to play diablo 2 on, but that's not been for a long time. I haven't cranked it up in at least a year.
I don't need no stinkin' PC!

Does that really make me a bad person? or is it just sort of slutty-cute?

anyway, why bother with a second machine, when you can use dual boot?
Unless you're a big-time gamer, in which case it makes perfect sense

28. It's still sitting over there |
|
But I haven't turned it on since my friend gave me this cool old G4. It kicks ass and I really haven't found a reason to turn the PC back on since I've had it. :)
