Of course, Internet Explorer is only safe because of its tiny market share. /smirk smirk
Strange thread, with the cultist, overpriced things being tossed about. Is there a cult where people call Macs and their users cultists and foolish with their money?
For Joe user like me, I bought an iMac and a MacBook, the Imac was a refurb and the Macbook I bought new from a guy on Craiglist for about 33% off retail brand new. Maxed out the memory for cheap on both.
For 2 plus years I have had ZERO issues, zero time spent fiddling, no anti-virus, no spam filters, etc. etc. etc. ad infinitum. I’ve never once gotten mad at my computers, had to call people to explain this and that to me, fix things, etc.
My computers have never gotten slower, they work the same as they did out of the box, like the blissful 2-3 weeks I used to get with expensive PC’s.
I guess if you’re really know a lot about PC’s you can save a few bucks maybe, build a really fast computer and IF you enjoy tinkering and bullet-proofing and keeping up with all the latest tricks of the PC trade a PC is for you.
For a computer dummy like me who just wants to do his work and have fun on the computer and has no interest in the inner workings that so many PC guys totally take for granted I feel like I STOLE these computers. They’re both Intel Core 2 Duo’s 2.16 and I bet they’ll be around for years to come, even when I get a new one just for the hell of it down the line.
My computers work as good or better as they did out of the box over 2 years later and I haven’t had to do or learn a damn thing, that’s worth something to me, quite a bit actually.
