Ok so... Number one..
"1. The only business model for Apple is narcissism."
Narcissism is common among Apple products, but it isn't the ONLY business model. Everyone I know who uses a Mac does so because of the simplicity. For people who need to use a computer for work but can't be bothered learning the ins and outs of a PC, Mac is a good alternative.
"2. Macs are ridiculously overpriced."
Ok, well, I admit that Macs are a bit expensive. However, this article compares a $2500 17" Macbook pro to a $600 17" PC. I've used a 17" PC, and I had nothing but trouble with it. However, I'm sure there are brilliant $600 PCs out there, but, based on personal experience, I'm going to have to disagree with this point or, at least, the evidence being used.
"3. Macs regularly ignore mainstream industry trends."
Ok, fair enough. I'll give you that one. Steve Jobs refusing to have certain software based only on personal quarrels with the CEOs of companies is ridiculous.
"4. Mac OS X is merely a locked down version of open-source Linux."
I've never used Linux, therefore I cannot comment on this point.
"5. There is no right-f*cking-click!"
It's called control+click. It seems that the writer is basing his opinions of Macs on photos of them he found on the internet. Then again, I could be wrong. Tl;dr being that there is a right-click.
"6. The Dock, and general screen layout, is retarded."
Ok, so this is made up of many sub-sections, being:
"The clock doesn’t display a date."
Well, the calendar icon does. You don't even need to open the app. Also, clicking on the time displays the date.
"The Dock concept is cute, yet still, retarded. You not only can’t see any of the windows that you have minimized, but you also can’t truly adjust the way The Dock behaves or appears."
Umm, you CAN see downsized windows. Furthermore, you can arrange the icons, make it smaller, larger, appear on a different edge of the screen and also hide it when not in use. I like it more than the windows layout, but that's just me.
"Trying to “X” out of a program doesn’t close it, it simply minimizes it. Just like the minimize button. Except it begins to kill your CPU after you’ve done it a few times by keeping programs running as ghosts."
Ok, yeah. I was actually thinking that myself. It's pretty weird in my opinion.
"Trying to alt-tab through your windows cycles through every single window of every single application one at a time instead of cycling between alternative applications"
No, it doesn't. I don't know when this article was written, but as of at least 6 years ago, it doesn't.
"Maximizing a window doesn’t actually maximize it."
I have found that annoying, so yeah.
"Opening 100 images in the Mac image viewer opens 100 separate windows."
No it doesn't. At least, not anymore (again, 6 years At least).
"You can’t drag files around to new destinations such as applications on The Dock or other directories without first preparing both source and destination windows so they are both visible."
I've never tried this, so I really can't say anything.
Ok, back to the main points.
"7. “It just… doesn’t work.” (Macs crash, freeze, and have evil viruses.)"
My Mac does freeze, but so do all computers. As for the spiralling rainbow ball, thats pretty much the same as the hourglass icon on PCs.
"8. Software and hardware options for Mac are lame, or slim at best."
This point basically says the programs such as Garageband and iMovie suck. I love all the iLife apps, so I really have to disagree with that. It would be nice to use some of the PC apps, but most mainstream programs like Photoshop and Final Cut are available on Mac, so I really don't see the problem.
"9. Gaming, and graphics in general, suck on Macs."
Ok, I do agree that Gaming is harder on a Mac. However, with many Valve games coming out on Mac the same day on Mac as they do on PC, and with software like Crossover and Bootcamp, it is possible. Also, I can't say much about the graphics sucking because I place gameplay over graphics. PCs are probably better for gaming though, I agree. However, just because Macs aren't as good doesn't mean that they suck.
"10. Macs are not flexible or customizable."
Flexible? A tiny bit. Customizable? Past upgrading your ram, not really.
Ok, so after debunking almost all of the main points of this article, I must say that it truly seems to me that it was written by somebody who knows almost nothing about the topic they're writing about. If anyone has any other opinions, I'd love to hear them.
See you soon, internet!
