Get a Mac

I was thinking of an interesting movie I once saw - Pirates of Silicon Valley , starring Noah Wylie and Anthony Michael Hall ...

Based upon the book, Fire in the Valley: The Making of The Personal Computer, by Paul Freiberger and Michael Swaine, this film documents the rise of the home computer/personal computer through the rivalry between Apple Computer (Apple II and the Apple Macintosh) and Microsoft (MITS Altair, DOS, IBM PC, and Windows). The central story of the film begins in the early 1970s and ends in 1985 when Steve Jobs resigned from Apple Computer ...

I've never had a PC but I've heard the horror stories. You out there that have PCs, in the name of all that's holy, do yourselves a favor and get a Mac! :-)



- the Vista episode of the Apple commercials

(Long-time Mac columnist and book author John Rizzo noted in an eWeek article that Vista incorporated features which Mac OS X has had for some time such as fast searching, seen in the "Spotlight" feature on the Mac, Smart Folders functionality already available in the Mac's Finder, and that the icons, terminology and visual appearance mimic those of Mac OS X. Others have come to a similar conclusion that Aero is an imitation of Aqua.) - Wikipedia
