No, I don't want a Mac

First up, have some Poy:

Alpha version which Sam presented to the queen or something.  The music is coming on – a few things have changed since then: levels; transitions; timings.  And the ending will be fleshed out soon.  Nut I’m happy how it’s coming along, and Sam’s animation is beautiful.

Completely unrelated, but I’m currently doing National Certificate music technology at college, and with any art-based course, Macs are a huge part of things.  I’m using Logic 8.0 for the bulk of my work, but Reason and Pro Tools too.  I was talking to one of my lecturers the other day about Final Cut Pro, and he asked me if I had a Mac.  I said I didn’t.  He asked me if I was planning to get one.  Again, I said no.  He was surprised by this.  The conversation moved to trojans and porn websites, and undoubtedly Macs are better when it comes to internet safety.  But, in my experience anyway, that PCs are fine if you don’t act like a durr-brain.  I’ve used anti-virus scanners, spyware scanners, and I haven’t been an idiot, so I’ve been fine since I got my first PC.

Obviously, they have conked out on occasion. but Macs conk out too.

I just don’t like them.  Maybe I’m too used to Windows, but OSX is a nightmare for me.  A fiddly, beautiful-looking nightmare.

In conclusion: I wouldn’t mind a Apple Netbook when it is released.

    don’t be scared of macs! really, it’s not a nightmare at all. i find them much more user-friendly than PCs. but i am of simple mind, after all.
