Mac, but only because it's CSI: NY's lead character's name.

Also, it's funny how a lead actor on a crime show's name is Gary Sinise, which looks Glaringly Sinister.

Interesting.



Pete Warden and Alasdair Allan talking about how they discovered the existence of the tracking database on the iPhone, and what it might mean. Also how they went about exploring and visualising the data once they knew it was there, and show how it could be used to track individuals movements over time.

I dislike Macs in every way it is possible to dislike them. I hate their peripherals, I hate their OS, I hate Safari, I hate their minimalistic, Helvetica meets turtlenecks fonts and design minimalism, I hate their marketing, and above all I hate how much attention they get.

I suppose other since I honestly do not care.

Mac is probably better technically.
All I know is something that always always comes up is how it never gets viruses ever. Though a few mac fans themselves have told me while it would be crazy difficult....no one really tries and they could deff make mac viruses if someone wanted...

But yeah I have PC, but just because it's what I have. Don't care in the slightest.

Edit: I know jack about all the technical stuff and jargon and all that. I honestly hate technology and like not knowing about it LOL

We just spent an hour diagnosing a mystery computer on our router.
It was a mac.
It was sharing openly it's files.
It wasn't modded or f**ked with.
Therefore,
macs are becoming self-aware.
Imagine what kind of whiny, attention whoring AI, they will be.

Which means: 

MACs empower you. You could lead a popular revolt against tyranny. 

PCs empower the government. They can be used to haunt you down. 

Ergo, MAC all the way.
