Watch This Linc Before You Buy Your Mac Mini

Post by mowestusa » Mon Mar 06, 2006 9:52 pm

Just want to post this with all the stuff going around about the Mac Mini. My understanding is that it is a little outdated because the first half of the complaints are about OS 8/9 and the last half are OS X. If you just want to watch 3 minutes of funny stuff give it a listen.

Pat will love this one and the superior apple products that it discusses. A little ironic, but the other list where I saw this posted a guy responded that he was going to show it to all of his friends by putting it on his ipod, another superior apple product. My apologies if this has been posted already.

Oh man this is classic, and hilarious at the same time! :lol:

Yet another reason why I'm getting rid of OS X when I get a Mac mini! :wink:

I still dont understand the devotion to throw money at steve jobs. I will rather go and buy some other company hardware, specially if that company supports linux like Gibabyte Network, Linuxcertified, EmperorLinux or Mini-ITX.

I don't feel like I'm putting money in Steve's pocket by buying a used Mac mini, and especially because I'm determined to throw OS X right in the trash where it can live sadly, along with Windows, everafter! :wink:

Another reason why I don't feel bad, in any way, about buying a used Mac mini is because there is no one here in Denmark selling computers with Linux preloaded, not even something similar to Walmart, there is none, everything is Microsoft, you could almost put a picture of Bill Gates in the window of every shop you come across.

Right next to the hookers?

Nah probably not, I was reffering to computer stores and stuff like that.
