JUST GET OVER IT!

Day after day it just sickens me seeing all these reckless people spamming chat rooms with windows/mac /Linux hate messages! JUST GET OVER IT! I mean, I do understand that you want to contribute your point of view to the rest of the world. But please but some thought to it. Don't just scream: OMG! MAC SUCKS! At least give it a reason, or just write a blog about it.
If you write it in a sophisticated way, people might listen to you for once

I used to work in tech support but gave up after years of putting up with stupidity.

I've thought and said everything you wrote in your post.... LOL

Comment by Wile E Coyote on January 18, 2009 at 9:30pm: True I believe the same. Stop complaining I know Mac sucks therefore dont buy it. I tend to like windows even with its flaws. Linux is great as well, but not that user friendly and if you play games just not that good to use. Plus its fun bugging Mac users since they cant get all the software Windows users can get. Oh you cant get that game>?????? Well thats because you suck....I mean you own a Mac which is soo great....and now you bitch. Damn wireless doesnt work I'll get a Mac and then bitch to the ISP that its them!! So everyone who got that message usually its from you having a virus! Not the ISP. Try learning how to use wireless instead of blaming Windows then go get a Mac and same problem....plus Macs are crap with wireless. Have problems with wireless all the time?? Then just use a WIRED connection. Oh damn it wont be so high tech! Well wireless isnt high tech its only supposed to be used if you NEED it not because your modem is 2 ft from you!

Comment by Matthew Johnson on January 18, 2009 at 12:27pm: I'm not going to lie, I like to tease certain Mac users. Rarely online. Mostly just around where I am. But that's because it's so funny, they get all huffy and red in the face. But I suppose it's possible that it only makes them want to post online about how awful Windows is.

Hard to say. I'm a big supporter of "if you like it, and you can get your work done, then use it." It's just so much fun to tease. Much like many Mac users like to tease windows users. And both like to tease Linux users.

Comment by gypkap on January 18, 2009 at 8:10am: The *"Sux" people are typically either fanatics for a particular OS, or they have no idea what they're talking about. I prefer Vista or Unix, but my wife prefers Mac OSX, and we don't fight about it.

For whatever reason some Linux fanatics are particularly bad, and say everyone should run Linux. Never mind that most people don't like command lines at all, and don't use them.

Dan: the error messages may mean something's badly misconfigured. Check with Apple sometime.
Also, Macs can and have been infected with viruses, but virus writers haven't targeted macs much until lately. Trust me on this: I had to clean a virus from a network of Macs years ago.

Comment by I am EJ on January 18, 2009 at 4:58am: People just waste their time fighting over this crap.
Sadly it will never end.

Comment by Gordon Keenan on January 18, 2009 at 4:54am: LOL! Dan the more I read your stuff the more I just feel so related with you in the doom and despair you have experienced! Years of working with the whole computer industry as a whole has made me look and treat things in a very different style from everyone else.

Comment by Martin Stuessy on January 18, 2009 at 1:02am: Dan, i'm not a mac user ^^ I use Linux (ubuntu hardy).

Comment by Dan on January 17, 2009 at 6:20pm: You want reasons? I'll give you reasons. HERE. Better?
Read the PDF too.
