I'm more so talking about sites that have to be specially built for each different browser for it to work on that browser. There are few out there, but it is possible to run into them and need to have a secondary browser to open up that the site supports. Verily, but most of the issues are either just flat out not working or that things aren't positioned correctly. I actually have used Firefox only once when I needed it. |

According to my television advert viewing you should now be 10 times more artistic and cool!

It does get annoying when someone says they like macs, and then another person goes and bashes their ads. Their ad campaigns are strong and well done. It is pointless to bash an ad campaign that says you'll be better off for having your product because there is no logical reason to say otherwise on an ad.

Personally I use windows myself... (I use vista but my god is it horrible, sadly there's a lot of games only compatible with windows.) ...but I find those mac ads absolutely hilarious. They're really well done.  |

I really like the new "I'm a PC" ads, too.
Especially where it has that guy from N*E*R*D saying "I'm a PC... like BG" and then it cuts to Bill Gates just shrugging.
Yeahhhh.

I've been a Mac user for years now and I love every minute of it, but lately, I don't know why, I've been booting into windows (xp) again. I miss the non anti-aliased fonts, the snappiness, the ability to make tiny dll files. Though that's all going away with Vista it seems.

I like Macs, but I wish they were priced more competitively.
It would be a Good Thing for everyone. (Apple included)

Yeah, this MacBook Pro's going to be sticking with me for the foreseeable future, because I certainly won't be able to afford a new model any time soon  |

I am using Windows XP for a project at the moment, and I'm finding myself missing a lot of the Mac things like expose and spaces. I like that Google Desktop gives me a 'Spotlight' (cmd+space) style search feature, however. I just wish it was as fast as spotlight on the mac.

Still haven't gotten used to the Mac yet, but I also haven't really used it. There will be a Mac port of BQ, yes, and also all Future Games of Mine.  |

Well, if it's anything like walking in high-heels, I should have it down in no time!  |

Unlike most people nowadays, I started with a Mac (back in the old System 7 days) and used one up until OSX came out. System 9 was a wonderful thing, but I just don't like the newer X look as much as the older Classic line, and it's cheaper to use a PC as well. It seems, though, switching from Mac to PC is harder than the other way round, I remember everyone being really confused by it.

I get no end of hassles from my programming team for being a mac user. I don't care. I like the way I can view any image or document instantly by pressing the space bar. And about a million other cool things, like the scarily fast search.
