"That makes me a tech person, and you a... poet..."

I appreciate the compliment. :blue:

Now, don't you have some campaigning to do?
spreadfirefox.com

Or better yet, since your such a tech dude and all, perhaps you should get your site back ONLINE LOL, FireFox Nazi. :banana:

first of all
Duke:

if you're a gamer, forget MAC. Also, the only reason that there isn't a lot of virus' for the MAC is because virus writers aren't bored enough to infect what, 3% of overall market share?

First of all Macs are not Personal Computer made for all kind of underdeveloped kids that don't do anything but games all day long. In the graphics industry a Max is better than any PC.. and almost all the major players in this industry use Macs instead of PC's
About the Mac viruses.. your version is.. let's say not true.. do you think a virus writer would not be interested in being one of the pioneers of viruses on Macs??? and this is just an example.

And what i don't get from your post:
What's the problem with Mac users.. their boxes really are more powerfull than PC-s.. but don't think they need more features than their Mac offers them. If you buy a Mac you don't want to play games all day long and scan your computer for viruses.. you want to work on it..

. We'll see how much people are ranting about it if it ever gets nearly as popular as IE because when it does, it'll be exploited as much as IE is, count on it.

Think about this: Every PC with Windows on it has already a version of Internet Explorer installed..
Let's imagine Uncle Bill forgot about including and Internet browser in his OS.. do you really think IE would be so popular now?? come on.. you can't compare this..

Why people are so jealous of Microsoft and their products, I'll never know. I mean, this was a guy who dropped out of school to pursue a dream, while his friends, family and colleagues balked. Not only did he succeed, he changed the world as we know it today. He is an icon of what America and the American dream is all about, meanwhile pouring billions in charity here and abroad.

jealous???? that was a joke right?? Those people developed an alternative to IE. and from what a lot of people are saying.. a better one. Think about what i said above.. what if IE was not distributed with Windows...???


I LOVE FIREFOX.. it's great and i will support it as much as i can
Cheers and sorry if i was mean..

... and Paul.. i must agree with Alexandru.. how can you talk about something without using it???? poetry is nice.. but not in this domain..
don't get to comfortable... a new IE exploit might be on the pipe

"Think about this: Every PC with Windows on it has already a version of Internet Explorer installed.."

Facts are strange things, aren't they?

"Let's imagine Uncle Bill forgot about including and Internet browser in his OS.. do you really think IE would be so popular now??"

Who invented the first browser? Who invented the OS, which enabled everyday people to use computers? How many PC companies ship their PCs with a MS OS?

"you can't compare this.."

Yes I can. If our site's catered to the MAC Nazis/Alternative Browser folks, we'd have gone broke a long time ago.

People e-mail sometimes (Maybe twice a year), crying because our program isn't, "Mac Compatible", As if we were practicing discrimination lol. No, the e-mails DON'T get returned. We do however, kindly answer e-mails from customers/potential customers who have the right equipment in todays Global, E-Commerce driven economy. The smart Mac users even have a PC for, "Real World" E-Commerce.

"First of all Macs are not Personal Computer made for all kind of underdeveloped kids that don't do anything but games all day long"

That's ing uncalled for.

Can you count to TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY MILLION?

"They're not all kids, either. The largest group of gamers is 35-49 year olds, hardly the pimply faced teenagers usually portrayed as avid gamers."

"and Paul.. i must agree with Alexandru.. how can you talk about something without using it????"

Sorry, as I'm just not the kinda guy who is quick to click the, "Download" button every time a new, "Fad" is introduced. Kinda like that Google desktop search everyone was Gah Gahing over lol (Security Issues are now being brought to the forefront).

I'm more of a, "Research Before I Download" typa guy. And based on the negative feedback I've seen throughout the internet MSG boards today, I think I'll pass.

" if you're a gamer, forget MAC" - this what i answered to.. Mac users are probably not using their Macs for gaming.. and games are not a decisive factor in buying a computer (IMHO)

Sorry fot that, Cheers

Ya I know that but I was on a rant and it's hard to think when you're ranting :?
