macintosh OS

I thought you "completely stopped using Windows two days ago"? We are glad you are back on the Microsoft band wagon, again. Yes, Windows 7 is incredible. There is no better OS for gaming, art, movies, whatever you are going to do. No OS is better at doing everyday things than Windows. Linux is for industrial purposes (servers, programmers, etc.), and Macs are for the "creative, I got a Mac, Mac is so much better" idiots.

So whoever says Winblows, Windows sucks, or something like that, I bet they are secretly looking at a great PC game and saying "Wow, I wish I could play that, if only I had a Windows PC".

Windows gaming = All of PC Gaming, period.
Linux gaming = Game console emulators and open-source, free game projects that never get finished.
Mac gaming = Whatever you could play in your browser and the few games that gets ported to OS X.

I saw a buttload of windows downloads
on bittorrent.

last time i checked i could play any PC game on my Mac. Since my Mac can dual boot any winblows software. Oh i guess your PC can only run winblows must be a bit limited then

Celtic Frost = Troll

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room or blog, with the primary intent of provoking other users into an emotional response[1] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[2]

Lithium is 100% right. I love my macs. notice the plural! I can run all my PC games on the machine and still enjoy the reliability of having a mac. (and it still blows my husband's PC out of the water) lol

Mac... PC... What's the difference? PC stands for "Personal Computer". Isn't the Mac a "Personal Computer" as well? There is becoming a lack of difference between Macs and PC's. They can both run Windows, they both are on Intel platforms, etc.

Snow Leopard, being Intel-based rather than PowerPC-based, can run on Intel-based PC's. (like I would care)

So the only edge Apple has left in the PC market is its "reliability" and image. Now all it needs to do is reduce the price of their computers to realistic levels, which I doubt Apple will do. Thankfully, they have the blissful ignorance of their consumers to count on to buy iPod's and iMac's which were produced at a much lower price than they are selling them for.

Enough! My ship sails in the morning! I wonder what's for dinner?

LOL

I'd like to inquire as to why, within the first page, this has become a Mac vs. PC war, when the OP only asked what Mac OS is? Who cares what OS you prefer, just buy what one you like better and use it. You don't hear me saying everyone should buy a Ford because I like them, do you?

A Mac is a PC, get it right!!

I don't know how it turned out to be Mac vs. PC, it should be Mac OS X vs. Windows.

Talk about the spread of idiocy.

That's what I said.

windows isn't worth the price,
if it were only about $10.00 USD
I might think about putting it on
some machine, but since its overpriced
just download it off of bittorrent,
don't pay for crashy trash
and save your computer from being
smashed.

Was it really worth exhuming a pointless, two year-old OS war thread just to add that?

Sure.
Wanna go pick some boogies with me?

We could play with Legos

What about makeing fake mudpoops?

The name says it all can download the Mac osx from AppStore for $ not like windows $$$$$$. But each to their own.

True.... although there's the small chance he's following the GOOD guideline of, "It is always better to post in an existing thread than to start a new one."

Mac-OS is a terrible operating system on terrible hardware, Apple even proved it when the decided to bail on their own PowerPC technology and go with the windows option of Intel which is the Industry standard IMO, AMD is the alternative, and although I had various AMD's for years, I'm much prefering my current Quadcore Intel.

If you want a decent UNIX based operating system, try one of the many distro's of Linux. Ubuntu is the most "famous" of the lot, and looks similar to Mac-OS, but anything and everything in it is free, and you can do anything you want (not that I don't do that with my Windows installation). If you want a Linux distro that looks more like Windows, try Linux Mint.

But honestly, keep away from Apple Desktop's and Laptops, i've used and owned them, and they are crap, and use proprietary hardware, which means, if something breaks, you have to get expensive apple hardware, and you have little upgrade or customization options.
