And your point is what? The Mac Book pro is a standard Intel Core 2 Duo

machine. MS don't make machines. Apple do. Or didn't you know Apple

moved from Motorola some time back? Duh.

the point is...

 

Apple is now producing the best Windows hardware you can buy.

 

Apple engineers its systems, so it shows "standard" PC vendors can no

longer keep pace with Apple's hardware talent.

 

Nobody is even close to building something like this, the most Universal

machine on earth...

No doubt it is fast. However they didn't test the latest and greatest

from everybody. Even the Alienware they tested had only 2gb of RAM and

a slower processor. Dell makes a XPS notebook with a T7900 processor,

capable of clocking to 3.4Ghz, dedicated physics processor, Nvidia SLI

video.

 

http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/xpsnb_m1730?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19

 

no doubt faster than a MBP, just not included in their test. Hell I

can go test a handfull of Japanese imports and claim one is the

fastest car I ever tested, that doesn't make it the fastest car in the

world.

Yes, I wondered the same thing. It's probably not a case of escaping the

"comp.sys.mac.advocacy,alt.os.windows-xp,comp.os.linux.advocacy,microsoft.public.windows.vista.general"

No, but advocating windows vista on apple hardware in a linux newsgroup is.

Or didn't you spot the crosspost?

It's what oxturd does.

More than half of the posts that Schestowitz makes are about either Windows,

Mac, iPod, Zune, Apple, etc. So when he makes these posts is he also

trolling?

Very true....

And putting {xxxyy} in front of the post does nothing for Google or

other weblog readers.

It's just a way of condining off topic posts, and a LOT of them.

So OxRetard, the typical MAK user, in his complete utter stupidity adds

Figures. Mac user are retards, those from CSMA without any exception it

seems. You will not find posters dumber than that anywhere else

You're genuinely bogus.

This is a result of your error, not mine. I believe in free speech, you

do not, so I and EVERYONE will start "adding extra Linux groups"

whenever you can't figure out how to set your follow ups to the proper

groups the poster intended.

 

You need to learn to be HONEST. Like I am... Why are you so scared of

the truth? That is the primary question...

 

So now, go run along, get the fastest PC on earth, that happens to be a

Mac!

crossposting is quite accepted on usenet, as long as all groups are

relevant.

 

windows vista groups are because vista now runs faster on a mac than on

a pc, and linux is since many of those users are looking for a way out

of the mess that linux has become.
