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 i'm writing this from a [now outdated] ibook which i used for about a year before getting a custom built pc which i recently killed with linux.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?

how is it retarded to buy a product that does the desired jobs that the user wants? this pc vs mac debate is the most pathetic shit ever and needs to fucking stop. have you owned a mac, windows users? actually owned one? no? shut the fuck up. do you own a windows machine, mac users? no? shut the fuck up.

and i'm sick of all these psuedo tech einsteins claiming one thing is better than the other. the line isnt getting blurred between the two products, its been completely erased. face it and move on.

jesus...

>>1 do whatever you want with your money. if it meets your needs and you enjoy the OS, go for it. apple products are reliable in terms of OS architecture and hardware, which seems to be what urked you about your other computer and its multiple OS's. i've been using a PPC G4 for over 5 years daily and its never let me down with a kernel panic or freeze, so i can attest for the stability.
