Dell's XPS One leaked: watch out, Gateway (Engadget)

Oct 24th 2007 8:27PM Yeah like you would know about iMacs... It is obvious you don't own a Mac. For all you Mac bashers... your fear is what you don't know but if you want to know, shut up and put up. Go plunk down a few grand and get you a MacPro with dual quad processors and 16 Gb of ram like my machine. Then when you are streaming along in WOW at over 550 fps without a glitch then get back to me on how these little hacked together POS wintel machines operate. Don't bash the Mac till you try the Mac.... YOUR IGNORANCE keeps others from learning.

Oct 24th 2007 8:21PM I agree this machine has No advantage over my Macbook Pro and I can smoke it's preformance specs anyway... and as for Blueray burner.. Who needs it, anyone remember thos mini-discs from Sony... Yeah none of you can play them now but you can all play CDs. Will be the same fate for Blueray, HD-DVD is the future, get used to the idea.

Ten things we love about Microsoft (Download Squad)

Dec 2nd 2005 1:59PM Seems Like there is a lot of potty mouth but only a few people really saying anything of value. I will try to add some value here. I teach IT to high school students. I have all three platforms and various distros. I will say that yes microsoft does innovate, so does apple, and the open source community. It seems to me that they all serve a very important place in the IT world. WIndows lends to more competition and innovation in the PC architecture market place so that there are affordable machines for the masses. Apple does make great machines and a great OS that works seemlessly together for those willing to pay the extra cash for what is the best machine/OS combo in the market right now. Linux and the OS community offers the students and future geeks of tommorrow an opportunity to get involved in Tech Development in a way never before available. They can build their on boxs, install free Open Source software and then play around with changeing it, a GREAT learning experience. So for all you haters out there. We should be giving MS a HUG, we should also send out hugs and kisses to the people at APPLE, and to all those who are members of the Open Source community (which includes SUN and GOOGLE). BTW I am writing this on My 17" power Book. It sits on a LAN with other machines that Quad Boot-- Win XP, 2K, & 98 and Fedora Linux. They all reside under a LInux server that is a kitchen sink server, acting as a mail, web, file, ftp, authentication, and print server. And I use the Power Book to administer it all. The mere fact that I can setup a system like this, that it is stable and secure and that the IT guys at my school never walk into my classroom, to me makes it seem like my thoughts should merit a little respect. my 2 cents
