Apple Just lie, it's their thing

Lies Lies from Tiny Eyes
Ok, what I am doing here is going through the apple site and dispelling the lies that are spread like butter across the whole of their propaganda site

Why switch:
Mac Say:
What a PC does, only better (apparently)

WHM Say:
ok, so two well known and reputable anti-virus/Anti-spyware companies are building virus protection for the Mac, one of them states 'With PC Tools iAntiVirus™ you are protected against the most nefarious cyber-threats attempting to gain access to your Mac and personal information.'
so there you have it, viruses on a Mac aren't just viruses, they are nefarious as well.
OK, so, 'never-ending security dialogs' I tell you what, I am still clicking the cross on my dialog now, this really is never-ending, actually, no they aren't, never ending means for something to literally never end, which is some serious bullshit on Macs part, the security dialogs in windows are there for the customers protection, not to annoy you, Oh and did I mention that you can turn them off if you don't want them. This is silly, why bullshit like that? As for safely controls, you have the access content filter on IE6/7/8 and also you have software like http://www.netnanny.com/"

High Performance:
Mac Say:
"With the latest Intel processors and other engineering leaps, a new Mac does all the things that only a Mac can do - at astonishing speeds"

WHM Say:
"Really, Like what? I have yet to actually see Mac tell me a software that is non-bespoke that can only run on a Mac, the only software I have found is final cut pro, which if you think about it isn't really worth the thousands of pounds you would need to spend on a G4 to use it properly, I would just use premier or one of the other hundreds of video suites available on Windows, also, if Mac are talking about 'all' of the shit 3rd party software for the Mac then really I don't care, I can get the same stuff, better developed for the Windows based PC.
Latest Intel processors? Really, it's strange that the processor in a Mac is set by the point they start building the type of system it will go in, for instance you go and buy an iMac, its got an Intel Core2 2.66, this 2.66 is gonna remain 2.66 until you buy a new Mac, so really, its not that great, cus I could go out tomorrow and move my chip from a Core2duo 2.66 to a Core2quad 3.0, I think in this situation I win, I can change the config of my system easily up or down, I can buy the chips on the day they are released whereas a Mac cannot, you have to wait for apple to upgrade their systems before buying 'cutting edge products' and also, can you define these leaps in engineering, is the leap just like how they fit all the tech in that small of a case? Cus if it is I don't see the point"

Born Ready:
Mac Say:
"Unlike other computers that require you to spend hours configuring devices, a Mac connects your digital camera, wireless devices or external drive and it just works, really"

WHM Say:
"This is Bullshit, it's not that a Mac can't do this, it's just that by saying 'other computers' they are quite obviously hinting at a Windows computer, and surprise surprise, windows can do this and has done this for years, fact is that windows supports a far more expansive hardware base and you will find that actually more works on a PC purely because more is available for a PC. Also all of this bullshit about spending hours configuring devices is pure speculation, I am positive if I search for issues setting up devices on a Mac I will find some, actually, I just have, 390,000 hits for the phrase 'Mac Hardware Troubleshooting', then I searched for 'Windows Hardware Troubleshooting' and guess what, 490,000, now think about this, granted its a single search, but windows holds a 96% market share and if you do a ratio projection on that I am positive that makes it so macs have more problems than windows. This statement on the Mac site is totally speculative, they will have no facts to back this bullshit up"

Instantly Wireless:
Mac Say:
"A Mac makes wireless easy, Networks automatically appear, then you can get on the internet in a few clicks"

WHM Say:
"Ok, so whats this:

I'm sorry, but you would have to be seriously stupid to not notice this staring you in the face for longer than a Mac has had this, Oh, and did I mention, it only takes 'a few clicks' on windows as well, however many 'a few' is, looking at this bullshit from Mac I am really not suppressed that a lot of Mac users think that Macs are the mutts nuts, if they seriously believe that windows doesn't have that ability already then I don't give a shit that they are using Macs, they shouldn't be left in control of a real computer"

A Conversation Piece
Mac Say:
"Lots of Computers come with built-in cameras these days. But only a mac comes with iChat software that lets you have four way video chats, give presentations, and even share your screen with people all over the world"

WHM Say:
"Ok, so you have some chat software, great, like that hasn't been around since the beginning of time, and, Can you chat with people on MSN Messenger? No, and MSN messenger happens to be what everybody downloads anyway, and yes, you can do video chat, and conferencing and share your screen with people all over the world, (why you would want to I don't know, possibly so you can amaze them with some shit you made on iMovie) The pointless thing about Mac's statement here is that windows has had the ability to chat in conference mode since windows 95 (OSR2) to windows XP, which allowed, wait a minute, VoIP, Videoconferencing and that was way before the likes of MSN Messenger and Yahoo Messenger.
But WAIT!, I here you cry, only until windows XP? That's right, MS is always moving forward so they replaced NetMeeting in Vista with Windows Meeting Space. Windows Meeting Space allows you to share not only your desktop but also allows you to show people things like PowerPoint presentations and all sorts of other shit from office2007 and above. Strange that this little nibblet of info slipped past Mac when they were drafting their bullshit website, oh and here are the two software's next to one another just so you can see how shitty iChat looks"



Safe for you and your kids
Mac Says:
"Designed with security in mind, Mac OS X isn't plagued with constant attacks from viruses and malware. Likewise, it isn't inundated by never-ending security dialogs. So you can safely go about your work -or play - without interruption. And easy-to-use parental controls let you manager what your kids can do on the computer and when they can do it"

WHM Say:
"Designed with your security in mind...LOL, Let me tell all those people too stupid to know, MAC DIDN'T BUILD THEIR OS, a Mac is just UNIX with a flashy UI, there isn't much more too it, they just ripped off FreeBSD, that's it, they didn't design anything with your anything in mind, all they did was take an already secure base and make it slightly more user friendly, but ok, if Mac's aren't at threat by viruses then please explain this:


ok, so two well known and reputable anti-virus/Anti-spyware companies are building virus protection for the Mac, one of them states 'With PC Tools iAntiVirus™ you are protected against the most nefarious cyber-threats attempting to gain access to your Mac and personal information.'...so there you have it, viruses on a Mac aren't just viruses, they are nefarious as well.

OK, so, 'never-ending security dialogs' I tell you what, I am still clicking the cross on my dialog now, this really is never-ending, actually, no they aren't, never ending means for something to literally never end, which is some serious bullshit on Macs part, the security dialogs in windows are there for the customers protection, not to annoy you, Oh and did I mention that you can turn them off if you don't want them. This is silly, why bullshit like that? As for safely controls, you have the access content filter on IE6/7/8 and also you have software like http://www.netnanny.com/"

Always Up-To-Date
Mac Say:
A Mac regularly checks for updates to Mac OSX and included Apple software and automatically downloads then. So really, a Mac gets better with age.
WHM Say:
"Again, what's the what? A windows pc has been doing this since the release of XP,



See, there it is downloading an update for 'other Microsoft products' with vista it also downloads for ANY Microsoft product and I believe games that are certified also get updates downloaded through this system. I think Windows update is far superior to Mac iUpdate or whatever they call it purely because they don't bang on about it like fucking morons, it's an update software, WHO CARES! Windows is known to get better with age, XP is now called a perfect system, and its supported and it covers 96% of the world so it can't be that bad, all this bullshit is starting to hurt"

To Finish
Finally I am going to mention a few of the other points that Mac have put down as positives to buying a Mac:

- You can connect to networks both Mac and PC
Great stuff, so can windows, with ease, what's your point?

- You can run MS office
What's your point, windows can and has been for longer, also Microsoft Build the fucking thing you retards

- Yes you can run windows
So one of the positive points of your system is that you can install an OS that you have been slating throughout your website, Great stuff, so I can go out and buy a Mac for a stupid amount of money and then you can install Windows on it...You're having a fucking laugh, have you got shit for brains?

Stupid tossers.
