In the Army...!
by Clay Mitchell, Sep 10, 1999 11:56am PDTOk, this isn't games related, but pretty freaking funny nonetheless... the Army has dumped NT as it's webserver and chosen.... the Mac OS! ok. This is pretty funny. Macs are great for like artists and "thinking different" and nifty colors, but not for dishing up web pages. Will our national defenders choosing such a.... pansy? web server send a message to all our enemies saying "come take us over, we're weak!" ? I can just see it... Canada and its hordes of eskimos marching over the border... :) Thanks Hyper. Flame away here.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS NUTTYX BUSINESS?!
I\'m sorry, I just gotta know... I can\'t figure out what the hell it is, even going to that link that Pokey left us below. And I sure as hell ain\'t downloading anything without knowing jack about it. :P

...they certainly are shallow consumerists. vanity pc\'s? ugghhhh... people need to pick out a \'blueberry\' pc like they need a hole in their head. same for the ibook, its not just a laptop, its some kind of extension of your own unique personality as a forward thinking art-terrorist.... computer as feel-good-appliance for the masses. go capitalism!
btw, they do suck, lock up, and a bunch of up tight quark-headz arent going to convince me otherwize...... (smiles!)
Five, ten years ago, Macs were definitely better (I was stuck with DPaint 2 on a 486) for some graphics work, if not most. Now, however, there is no question that -- for someone familiar with the platform -- PCs are the better choice.
They\'re faster (even at graphic apps), a properly set up one doesn\'t crash any more than a Mac (plus you don\'t have to wonder \"what the hell is Memory Error #128???), and there are very few titles either not ported to the PC, or that don\'t have PC versions developed at the same time (But when will you see 3DS for the Mac???).
For someone that has used a Mac for years for graphics work, but isn\'t really a computer person, I\'d reccommend that they stick with the Mac, but for a new user or a professional with PC experience, PC\'s are the better choice.
you make me :~(
PC\'s vs Mac\'s
or
Quake vs Unreal
BTW i am a pc user, BUT almost all the professors at M.I.T. use Macs
I know this because my brother goes there and I went there with him to tour the campus and all the profs. even have the gay Apple sticker on their doors. Scary isn\'t it?
lets see it pull 75 fps in quake3 with its shitty intergrated ati card...
hehehehehee
Give them time..
think about this..

English please?
linux is free, just D/L and install
I must be cheap too!
P.S. I have and run every major OS, everyone has a place
WINDOWS=GAMES
APPLE=DESIGN/CONTENT
UNIX/LINUX=WEB SERVER,CORP SERVER,FATE OF THE FREE WORLD
BeOS=MULTIMEDIA
at this point BeOS holds the most promise for the masses.
Windows is dead, the body just hasn\'t quit twitching
;-P Computers are not a religion. Just once I wish the best tech would place first, not the \"easiest,mosthyped,userfriendy,bloatware\" that the pea brains of the world can manage to load and run without screwing things up. But thats just me wishing again. ;-P
OH FUCK IT, you can lead a horse to water, but you can\'t make him drink.

If everyone of you WINDOWS SLAVES would take the time to learn UNIX, the world would be a better off.
Your mission is to go buy a book on linux(cause thats all your pea brains can hack)and start reading, in a year or two install it and see what a CLONE of a real OS can do.
P.S. Pray for apple and BeOS, cause thats all thats stopping microshaft from tattooing SLAVE on your fore head.
Thats right keep on building Bill gates house (that was designed on a mac)
You fucks go to school and haXor out of that for the rest of your pathetic little wigger lives.
