I wouldn't say the macbook and the iPhone are crap. Sure they're pricey but people who have the money for that stuff it is convenient for I guess. and they probably get more use out of it than 3k spent on performance mods to a car. hahahaha. My friend won a macbook pro in a raffle and it is amazing. I'm a PC user myself though.

I 100% agree, I build my own computers for that reason. Macs are really good computers, just far over priced for what they are. This is coming from an Windows fanboy to.

I have always been with windows myself I'm starting to use Linux on my other computer to get a feel for it trying to see if I should use that as the OS on this computer I built. It runs pretty good overclock'd to 3.2gHz

If I wasnt lazy I'd learn linux, I've herd a lot of good about it. This computer was a quick fix when I sold my old setup. My old rig was OCed to like 3.6-8ghz. Still going today and its about 4~ years old now. Never shoulda sold it haha.

I am pretty dam stable at 3.2-3.4 but yeah thats the big deal with Linux I'm learning I can probably get better performance and push it to 3.6 or 8 but I don't really think I'll need that difference lol. If I can design stuff in AutoCad while browsing the internet skyping and listening to music emailing and making a word document excel spreadsheet and powerpoint presentation all at once I am all set hahahah.

I rock windows cause I game on my PC, and my windows XP is as stable as it gets. I've never had to crash on me. :fingers crossed:

And there isnt a whole lot of performance to be had, but when gaming tho a few fps makes a difference, in my eyes atleast.
