buying a mac.

so.

i decided to completely dump windows and every other microsoft product i use [mainly just windows and msn] about a month or two ago, and switch in full to linux. i was running windows 2000 pro, installed mandrake 10.3 or something that i already had on cd, it failed, two weeks later, i get ubuntu on cd and do a clean install.

two problems; i can't change my screen res to anything larger than 1024x768 [which is really pissing me off], and my wireless card isn't supported. i know ways around that, but with the recent wwdc a month ago and keynote today, a mac desktop is looking more and more appealing. i'm writing this from a [now outdated] ibook which i used for about a year before getting a custom built pc which i recently killed with linux.

i have this delicious large monitor that i'd like to keep, so right now it seems like my only option would be to get a custom mac mini. should i do it?

Look, if someone out there is such a sub-genius that they are considering buying a Mac in the first place, I say just let them.  I mean, if they buy a PC they'll probably be asking questions like 'how do I inserted DVD' on forums like this for the next year, and I can do without reading more of those sorts of questions.  Solution.... retard buys Mac....retard goes to Mac retards forums... we don't hear from said retard again except for the occasional 'will that run on my Mac?' question, to which the answer is always 'NO' anyway.
