Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Go and pick a pink one then Fred, they work well. lol

Fred,

"5 Reasons You Should avoid Windows:"

1-5.. because it's Windows!

As always Fred.. get a Mac and forget about upgrades, security software etc etc.. And a whole shed of down time and money.

Best model on the market skinny. Pink ones work far better than black or silver. :-))

Macs are much, much more expensive. Bang for bucks, you can't beat a PC with windows.

Fred, only wants a door not windows. lol

This has got to be one of the funniest threads on the internet. Thanks chaps :-)

I should add, in all seriousness, that when I go to my local Sainsburys I can get my car handwashed there for £5 by one of the Polish guys who do a great job. At least with some immigrants you know that they are not making bombs in their spare time.

You get what you pay for, buy cheap and you buy twice, "you can't beat a PC with Windows" What proven nonsense you do come out with H/S. Year after year Macs come out top in independent consumer surveys.

Just warn the polish guys not to stand to close to the motor with the high powered jet wash guns as they blew the lights on mine and my sisters with water penetration to the back lights. lol

Ps doodlebug, bring your car to Bishops Stortford Homebase and for £8 more they
wash and hoover the car and destroy all the seals around the lights. Make sure its before lunch otherwise you have no lights to drive home with. I just love 'em'. lol

The sales of PCs are approx 17 times as many as Macs. I don't know who these satisfied Mac owners, but they are being oubought by PC owners somewhat,. I have been in IT since 1965 and have never felt the least temptation to buy a Mac. They are overpriced, underpowered for the money, difficult to upgrade, not much use for gaming, irritating to use and long overdue for the scrap heap.

Dreams.

Read back and you can see why I took what you wrote with a good pince of salt.

But possibly I was using computers when you were in nappies, but haven't bothered to update for 3-4 years and liked buying operating systems tested by the brighter boys.

============
Stan,

Maybe, but I was playing with a MAC yesterday and it means that like myself my daughter would have to relearn hotkeys etc.. To lazy and can't be bothered to change over 30 years of accumulated junk,

Stable,


Are you still backing the tories?

Maybe you should not the horse has bolted,

You guru, Cameron, is being written of as "yesterday's man" and not fit for purpose.

He is do incompetent that he can't even control his own party leave alone the country.

He has been christened the "Mistake a Day Past Minister".


8-)

As usual H/S talking tripe again, this time on Computer platforms when evidence proves him wrong.

Stable,

Leave Tinker alone.

He represents the Right wing of the torie party.

Many, will align themselves with UKIP and the BNP.

I wonder if cash from the Cayman Isles will flow in the party coffers.

Mind Cameron should be able to borrow a bob or two from Beccy's setlement.

The evidence on computer platforms is firmly against Macs. You can't really say that Macs sell less because they have poorer advertising when Apple are better at advertising. People just do not buy Macs. They are too expensive for what you get. They are prettier but poorer value.

Notice how the spelling gets worse once the alcohol kicks in, would still be shite anyway :O)

H/S has elocutions lessons from Tanker alert

Important areas where a Mac is a far the better bet for your money is security, reliability, and stability. The fact that the software and hardware are put together by the same Company is significant.

i know bugger all about anything and even less about computers, but i understand that if one's job entails design and similar, Mac is far and away the better platform

Oh Cynic don't be so modest -):

As long as the bl ***y thing works who cares. It will not spell any better. lol Also take what you write with a pinch of salt Fred. Mind you mines done in the best possible taste. lol
