That's right. If you have a problem or want to upgrade it, you just throw it away and buy a new one! What could be simpler than that? ;-)
Ha ha, Whistler is a computer noob and doesn't know what Linux is. *points and laughs* ;-) |
Uh, your mom doesn't know what a Linux is! Probably...

Why, did I spell it like that? Heh, heh...
Oh, wait, never mind. Sources say they're both accepted. Crappy sources...

Linux must be really good - you can run it on boxes now. Windows only works on computers. |
Fixed.

Eve Mac can't solve the human equation.
I've only had slight problems, and they were due to my not being very good at d.i.y. The only major problem I've had was the same as Trademark's. I also got hit by lightning, and fried a motherboard. My first Mac too. I had to trade it in for a PC. After that short time with Mac, I couldn't stand Windows anymore.

Twenty-two years with six different Macs and I've needed help only one time when a lightning strike took out my logic board. The local shop had me back up and running in less than 48 hours.
