Smoking Near Apple Computers Voids Warranty

[the86d]

I hear more juvenile posturing and bragging about "mad skillz" from PC people than I've ever heard from a Mac user.
They seem fond of dated matrix-style hax0r posturing, throwing about jargon that they consider arcane and impressive, when in fact they're simply talking about things people do every day.

There 10 types of people in this world. Those who can read binary, and those who can't! Check the rack...

Documents sometimes disappear, during a divorce, "I heard" from miles away. Racist web sites fall off these nets all the time, weeks at a time, also from miles away, or even say across the country, I've also "heard".

I am not one to argue point and fact too much, resumes speak for themselves no matter how vague. Not "every day"... FYI.

Most Mac users have no idea what is happening in the background, they are more interested in pictures and such. PC users have more of a solid foundation, since more have been on the same processor family for longer than any Mac USERs. PC ninjas tend to work IT. Mac ninjas... well... I don't know ANY. Mac fans usually work as the new person in AP, AR, or 10 key monkey-type job, where I work anyway. One wants to keep her password cryptic like 4ell0, yet she can't remember it. She is a ton of work.

Thanks for playing...

If I hear any more of this xxxxx, I'll throw up. It's become a bash-smoker free for all. I'm really tired of what the public is dictating more and more about what smokers can and cannot do, without limits, and including that ecigs should be banned. I guess they are having so much fun bashing smokers that they want to keep them right where they are.

AMEN Take a look at Dr. Siegel's blog from yesterday to see just how insane the anti smoking freaks have become. Dr. Siegel dared to criticize anti smoking for a libelous statement against a smoking ban opponent. The fact that he dared to call them on it led to his expulsion from the anti-smoking community. We need to step up this fight against the freaks or we are seriously doomed. The Rest of the Story: Tobacco News Analysis and Commentary. Don't forget to look over the comments as well as the original post just below this one.

I probably should not have made the statement about "Agents". I have bad impressions of a few, and as a consequence I have become biased against the rest. Two out of thousands is not a good sample.

Just wanted it to be obvious, yet not list the company.

Hi I'm a PC and a Mac!

I use my PC, I use my Mac they are both wonderful and now smoke free computers.

If both PC and Mac are great computers then It must be the people in front of them that are the problem, fighting over which is best with personal attacks and such! Every new Mac is a PC and with a little tinkering a PC can become a Mac they are just computers that run programs! May they both live for a long time smoke free!

Amiga on the other hand... hehe just kidding!

Yes! that's exactly the sort of posturing I was talking about...

dood, quoting thinkgeek t-shirts doesn't qualify as a resume .... nor did anyone ever ask you for one. ever.

Who wants to learn zeros and ones and watch a RAID array in the off chance it breaks when you can double click that icon right there and load an awesome golf game I fix computers in the day and play them at night that why I like PC and Mac!!

Yup and I think its a funny quote, even like 6 years ago.

Slackintosh is the closest to Apple I go. I was donated an iMac, and had to do SOMETHING good with it!
<yawn again>

YOU apparently have MAJOR issues with capitalization. So I am one up. CheerZ! Sorry if my Internet Culture offends you, that is the only culture I have. No new Mac, no rich parents to spoil me. I learned things instead of playing sports. A bit proud, I know.

It was a joke. I was trying to lighten things up, friend - hence the smiley face:

Internet culture doesn't offend me, I'm not offended by you or anyone here - we're just having a bit of back and forth for kicks, yeah?

No new Mac, no rich parents to spoil me. I learned things instead of playing sports. A bit proud, I know.

I've bought my own Macs, I've certainly never been spoiled.

The generalizations about Mac "fanboiz and ghouls" are as old and wrong as assuming that PC users live in their mom's basements and can't get dates. It's just silly.

Hehe, this is amusing. I used to build computers, and basically every computer has thermal conducting grease on the cpu. a quick google search found this - so not only do they use it, they use a lot of it. That grease used to be pretty damn toxic, I'm assuming the stuff in apple is. I'd rather eat a lump of smoker's dust than leave that thermal grease on my skin overnight.
