Laptops: Mac vs. everyone else

Running windows through emulation software is not as fast as running it natively on a mac but it's also not "very, very slow and cumbersome" unless you are doing something incredibly processor intensive which most people don't do.

And funny how you presume benchmarks make me wrong. The fact is-- it is SLOW and CUMBERSOME on my computer.

OK let me get this straight. Fact based testing is wrong and you are right? And I am the one that is presuming?

And don't try and play it off as if it's a YOU thing when clearly you were giving advice to others.

It has been repeatedly tested with results to the contrary of what you said and you are wrong or not using it correctly.

Fact is that I own a new Powerbook with an Intel Chip.

Fact is that I tried to run some non-Mac programs on it.

Fact is that I found them to be extremely slow and cumbersome.

Fact: An Apple system running Windows natively using bootcamp has been shown to be very fast and actually beat similar Dells and HPs in speed tests.

Fact: What you are saying does not agree with a proven fact. It is similar to you saying that pigs fly in your opinion.

Fact: You should go and take a computer lesson or something to figure out what you are doing wrong.

Fact: The world is not flat.

Right. Again, there are proven test results on this so if your computer is some magical bizarre outlier, then go take a computer class to figure out what you're doing wrong.

Oh and by the way, here's a fact for you.

Fact: You are an annoying late-to-middle-aged woman who won't shutup, can't handle it when anyone proves her wrong, and makes about as much sense as 2 monkeys, a wolf, and a rhino having a sex party.

"As you can see, the Macs running Windows gave these PCs a run for their money, with the 2.16GHz MacBook Pro turning in the fastest scores on three of the five individual tests. The build-to-order MacBook configuration also tied the 2.16GHz HP Compaq in the sixth test, involving Roxio VideoWave." MacWorld

"It works. Impressively well. With games, even. Our 20-inch iMac came with a 2.0-GHz Core Duo processor, 1GB of RAM, and an ATI Radeon X1600 graphics card with 128MB of GDDR3 memory. That's roughly equivalent to a high-end laptop machine". PCWorld discussing the Mac running windows natively.

Actual statistics are available so that your ignorant, uneducated, annoying self can go read it on her own time.

Fact: You're a little child who always has to be right, even when he knows he's wrong. Perhaps you need to grow up.
