| Apple and Microsoft Suck, Mozilla Kicks Ass | ||||
| This article is about Apple and Microsoft's bullshit, how much they suck, their stupid feud, and how awesome Mozilla is. I'll be going from shittiest to most awesome which means I'll be starting with Apple. First off, they have two products: Macs and iPods, both of which suck. The Mac moreso, so let's talk about that first. Let's start off with the number of programs Mac's support. How many? About 20 or so as opposed to the PC's 200 or so . These numbers are by no means acurate, but they define my point perfectly - Mac's support a very limited amount of programs in comparison to the PC. Then there's their internet browser, Safari. What the hell is Safari? You know what Safari is? It's Internet Explorer with a different name. Come on, seriously. If you're going to make a shitty browser, at least be like AOL and make it an original shitty browser. Then there's the name. It's like they tried to be creative and failed miserably. If you're going to try to be creative, come up with an awesome name, like Firefox. If you can't do that, just make it something boring like Internet Explorer or America Online. So, back to Macs. Have you ever noticed that the only people who claim to "like" them are people who own them and people who work for Apple? Well the people who own them are just saying that because they're too embarassed to just admit that they were stupid enough to fall for Apple's ploy and actually buy their bullshit. I think it's pretty obvious why people who work for Apple would say they "like" Macs. Next, we have the fact that they're a pain in the ass to use. Apple has tried so hard to make them "easier to use" than PCs, that they've actually made them harder to use. My school has Macs in some rooms, and I've tried using them but I never know what I'm doing because of the awful layout and design. Then, you have Apple's bullshit website. Below are a couple quotes from it. "Leopard just works. It has over 300 amazing new features. But most impressive, it just works the way you want it to." First of all, I highly doubt it has over 300 "amazing new features". If you're going to bullshit your customers, Apple, at least use a real-sounding number, like say, seven. Amazing? Probably not. I'm sure most of it was in the old Leopard (and what the hell is Leopard, anyway?) and the rest you can probably find in one of Microsoft's shitty programs. However, my biggest problem with this quote is the end. I highly doubt that "just works the way you want it too". Am I wrong? Okay, Apple, if I want to use this Leopard to launch missiles at Colorado, can I? Try to answer that question. "It's incredibly easy to make great stuff on your Mac." Wow, I wonder how long it took them to come up with that phrase. Apple's marketing team is full of shitheads so I'm guessing at least three or four hours. Then it probably took another hour or two to self-justify releasing a slogan that says absolutely nothing. Oh, I just remembered what a Mac user's typical reason is for why Macs are supposedly better than PCs: they are more secure. Well, if that isn't the biggest load of bullshit since "I did not have sexual relations with that woman", then I don't know what is. The reason why Macs don't get nearly as many viruses as PCs is that not nearly as many viruses exist. Very few people in their right mind own Macs, so virus-makers don't make viruses for them. They make viruses for PCs so that they can target a much larger number of people. Apple's second product is the iPod. Oh, how I can't stand the iPod. Everyone with an iPod somehow thinks their more special than other people just because have one. Okay, assholes, tell me: what the hell is so special about an iPod? The answer is nothing. Do you know what an iPod actually is? It's a device that plays music files and occasionally video files as well. I think they have a name for that. Oh, right, an mp3 player. Yeah, I'm sure you've heard of those. But I bet you iPod users never would have guessed that's what you actually have, because Apple tries very hard to conceal that fact. The only thing that is remotely special about an iPod is the large amount of memory. But even then, what douchebag has 20,000 song library? Seriously, my library currently has maybe 400 songs or so (it's still growing though). I can tell you right now that I will never need 80GB of storage. What you thought that was it?
