rant about PC's
NSFPC
im a mac.
and ill tell you why.
i am on a vaio that i have not used in 3+years... just remembered why. it was top of the line in 05. ran 4k after taxes and frys "loaner laptop" warranty shit. well... thats still not enough to get a decent PC.
ill give the ID team some cred it looks great is great for the dev's out there that need to type a lot the keyboard is a 10 on its ease of use and response. but....
i have let my dad use it a few times and he has somehow been able to turn the once fast and agile dev box into a "hot young milf" wmv storage dump..... ie will not stop loading virus warning's and you cant get ie to ever stay closed and the windows just duplicate until it freezes....
i am a mac guy since my mac classic my grandad gave me when i was 2. 24 years later i still cant stand windows.
sorry but the fight is just a landslide for macs at this point. windows is a fucking virus.

If I struggle through your labyrinthine rant, should I understand the moral of this tale to be "don't let idiots borrow computers, regardless of OS"?

Flatten it, start again.

- cool. your not an idiot redneck looking at porn. i totally blame my step dad. but your vaio sucksapplepirate
- No, it really doesn't suck - it's just a tool that does exactly what it's supposed to, well, and doesn't let me down.Nairn

i refuse full time jobs all the time that require flash devigners to use PC dev boxes. its just not fair.
no one would tell a plumber he had to work with only craftsman wrenches. its the same for a dev guy in my mind.
fuck i hate windows. seriously. im posting this from an MBPRO 17 while trying to debug this vaio. if i am working on this VAIO and the sun goes down i might drive straight to redmond stopping only for gas and drive to this house and toss this 17" 6.2lb VAIO straight at the Microsoft software dev HQ front window like the discount tire lady.

Tell your dad to stop using your laptop to download porn from questionable sources and you should be fine.
- i basically gave it too him... i feel bad for the old guy. he just trolls myspace, foxnews blogs and porn... is that too much to ask XP?applepirate
- like father.... like sonlambsy

my mac just froze for all fairness. computers are the devil. i want to go back to designing websites with cardboard and letterpress like they used to.
web 2,000 b.w. that was a boom i tell ya. the first social networking cave painting multitouch.. man what a moment in time.

make pops a limited user account for his porn surfing. you should only log in as admin on xp when you're doing admin stuff. much safer on that swiss cheese os.

fire is the cleanser
- dibec0
applepirate. you are my new friend. thank you for the laughs.
good luck with vaio.
- poopy_pants0
yeah self medicated for sure airey.... it makes the voices in my head sound better. more of a babersop quartet telling me to kill steve ballmer not so much the voice of Angra Mainyu
lots of rx-green was needed for this rant for sure. had to take a nap i was so stoned.
thx dibec i found a woodchipper for the vaio in his shed.. it's in laptop heaven now

my alter ego poopy_pants just spoke for me..

I think it's amazing that multi-touch technology hasn't yet become a pervasive technology, yet there are already people complaining about devices that don't have it. It's like complaining that your electric car isn't wimax-enabled.... or something like that :)
I do however feel your pain, as do most of the other people here who've had to help relatives with PCs. Wipe it and use the recovery CDs to start the thing from fresh with all the drivers.
