    Re: imac vs home pic/macbook vs labtop

    one more thing I like about Linux... is DOS Box ..If there is an old DOS game you still like , chances are very good you can get it running in DOS box. Sure there is a version for windows7 bit the Linux version is more stable than dos ever was. And all the games are on abandonia for free down load..
    like the original Civilization or empire deluxe .. it is out there ..
    or are you a leisure suit Larry fan?
    all with a few clicks and free downloads...
    not sure of the MAC version... probably pretty good speed on an Intel chip...

    get that dead PC going with a new OS , and a new life
    or craig's list it so some else can...

    Macbooks are very over priced . Look at the hardware specs and go get all the same stuff and a TV for your living room for the same price lol. I don't recommend Mac OS to people that don't web development or some kind of media editing . I like Lenovo and asus computers . I web develop and game so Mac OS sucks for me since I game. If your like my dad he lays in bed and surfs the web or pays bills so he got a Windows 7 tablet. Its like a iPad but full windows 7 on it.

    Yup Mac is the way to go, you get what you pay for. They may be expensive but well worth it and you can pick up a 1 year old Macbook for a good price if you look carefully. The only time I'd recommend a windows based pc or laptop is if the user plans on gaming with it.

    that is just not true ..in fact a few years ago someone hacked one in 10 seconds

    sure there are more kits for a Windows but as Macs become more popular they will become more hacked.. there is nothing special about macs..

    I also read there were bugs in the Mac that Apple refused to deal with until the anti Virus people threatened to reveal then to the public.

    I got nothing against Macs, ( hell I bought Apple stock in 2001 and have the paper work to prove it ) I just hear the old Mac are more secure thing ..and know you are living in a denile..

    They can be hacked but viruses are almost if not non-existent
