It's an Asus though.
If you wanted you could buy a new battery for it for around $50.

Tell me more about how 'macs suck'




What, are we living in 1999? Macs traditionally weren't targeted by malware and virus makers because it was such a small demographic, when like 90% of home computer users were on Windows. They were never invulnerable, just weren't targeted NEARLY as much.
That's not the case anymore, thanks to all the Apple fanboys.

Plays most new games?
Good
luck
with
that..
Sure, you can play all games on mac if you really want to. But you have to install a Windows emulator....
If you want a gaming PC, you play on a Windows box.

My OS upgrades are free too. My computer is over 5 years old and it plays all the latest games at the highest settings. Oh and I upgrade it, because I built it myself.

As far as resisting destruction... no.

You can't just drop facts on a Mac fan like that.. You might upset their delicate nature when they find out they paid 3x what they really should have for a logo.

Lol "paid" Now your all gunna be outraged by my telling you I gave a crackhead a QP of bubba for it; so only drawback is I can't bring it to mac store for service, its stolen for sure.

Just plug it into your PC and transfer the music.

Oh wait you need a secondary app called itunes or special software to do that.

LoL.
Pray tell how are you using all 8 GBs of your RAM? Doing some hardcore heavy video editing and rendering are we.
I have 32GB of RAM and I barely peak 6GB for most things I do... and I have the paging file disabled.
I have nothing "against" macs per se.. except that they suck..they have good screens, that's about it. But when someone calls you a PC fag.. lol.

So you essentially gave a crackhead $1200 worth of weed for a shit computer with no warranty.

I just finished up building a desktop I've been working on for over 6 months and came out to roughly $700. I can guarantee you it utilizes its 16mb's of RAM a lot more efficiently than your 8mb's at a fraction of the price. As well as run just about any game currently out at high graphics settings. That is something you just cannot do on a Mac. Facts.

I will admit that if I had money to blow I would buy one of those Mac Airbooks just to have as something portable. Only reasoning behind that is because I think it looks nice, is light(er), and I'd only be using it for email/web browsing. When it comes to desktops there simply isn't a comparison in the performance department. A PC will blow a Mac out of the water every time $ for $.

That's only a common problem for idiots running more than 4gb on a 32GB OS.
That particular picture, the person probably either has a bad stick of RAM, or needs to set the memory timings manually in the BIOS (try doing that on your Mac). But probably has a bad stick of RAM.
Definitely not a common problem for most people. (Source - 15 years in IT)

Mine is a desktop though, that I built myself and upgrade every couple years. Not fair to compare it to a Mac really.

Yea, I was on a tight budget building it but I could upgrade/expand it to 32gb's tomorrow if I'd like for under $100.
That's really the point I was trying to make, a Windows machine doesn't become obsolete anywhere near as fast as a Mac since you always have those options of upgrading for very cheap.

I personally don't have anything against macs and honestly, I don't really know shit about computers. I just can't stand by Apple products due to their prices and lack of upgradeability (is that a word?)

Yes, but I had a good laugh at it.

Yea my life has been mostly mobile the last 7 years, so I don't even desktop, my MBP is a godsend, if I could change one thing I'd have it be liquid cooled or something, mutherfucker sure does get hot, but at least the heatsink and fan is easy to access and clean out, not like a PC (laptop) where you have to completely disassemble it.

Right on. I was really into PCs of any variety growing up. Really interested in hardware and programming but shortly after high school I dramatically lost that ambition to keep up with technology. That was over 10 years ago now.

It wasn't but 6 months ago when I decided I needed to get a proper machine that I started catching up on all the current technology.

And as far as computers getting hot, I had a laptop about 2 years ago (I think HP, not sure) that would get incredibly hot. I ended up getting way too drunk with it on my lap too many nights and that damn thing gave me a weird heat rash that didn't go away for a good 3 months. Looked like I had varicose veins surrounding my balls :lol:
