Gigaton: Official album thread

[Norah]

Apple is awesome and easy and if you dont get it then you are just stuck in your ways as well.

I know it's kind of a cliche at this point but their stuff just works - in my experience, anyway.

Bozos who complain that Apple is for idiots because you can't endlessly customise eight million different things are kind of missing the point. There are probably more nuanced complaints but that's the main thing I've had people yammer at me about, "yeah, but can your iPhone do this? I can change these icons, see!"

That's not necessarily my complaint. Mine is strictly a cost benefit analysis. When I switched back to PCs a comparable machine made by Apple cost 3 times as much. I get the convenience and stuff just works, but I don't think Windows is so bad that it's worth paying triple to avoid using it. And since I switched back (2008ish), Windows has improved exponentially.

Sure they are more expensive, but i went through so many PC's compared to how long my macbook's have lasted that ive actually saved money since the switch.

These anal-retentive arguments of the virtues of Mac vs. PC are perfectly fine placeholders until album 11 actually comes out.

take it to the Official WWE/Pro Wrestling thread

If you haven't used windows since before Windows 7 it's probably worth looking at again.

Also, it's a lot easier to mitigate malware/viruses now than it was in the XP days.

I appreciate this post

This is so much worse than an actual album thread.

Which is quite an accomplishment.

like there's much of a chance #11 will deserve any better of a thread

In my whiskey haze last night, i watched most of the 1998 Minneapolis show.

Man, what happened?

I was in the absolute worst back-left handicapped seating for that show, and the sound in those seats was total chaos. Anybody could have been playing. I listened to the boot once, and it could have been a completely different show for all I knew.

I was at the Rapid City (wtf) show before that, where the venue might as well have been a large club, and it was magnificent.

Yes, I find Windows 10 pretty much incomprehensible.

7 is the gold standard but 10 is better than 8 and still probably second best overall.
