The Mac Panthers will come after you for this. Seeing how the Mac and PC are becoming more homogenized performance-wise via using the same processors, etc. I completely agree that the commercials have the 'Mac' guy coming off as a condescending, holier-than-thou closet homo. I like the two different brands pretty much the same, but these commercials are so ftl.
Also Cox.

I don't know why you would want windows on your computer anyways, considering it's complete sh*t, like everything else microsoft makes. Also, the inability to hack a mac isn't due to hackers lack of interest, otherwise some PC loving f*gs would have been hacking macs for years and creating creating assloads of viruses for macs. Also, considering multiple government agencies using macs for their extra security, I don't think it's complete bullsh*t that they're more secure than your sh*tty windows machines.
People who subscribe to Apple's corporate philosophy ( human slavery) often espouse the notion that Apple products are somehow inherently more liberal than other things built out of metal and silicon. While this is true for the special case of Ann Coulter, Apple users are in all other cases simply the delusional but willing victims of trendy advertising, which makes expensive computers made by fascists appear to be a counter-culture political statement.
You have to wonder who those commercials are for. They seem to be aimed at making existing mac customers feel better about their purchase. Instead of getting PC users to switch. The Mac Guy vs. PC Guy has to be the most alienating set of commercials ever made. The fact that they lie through their teeth in them constantly is telling. Where is the mac commercial where the PC guy has tons of friends, and the mac guy is all alone. I guess they haven't made that one yet. Give em time...
Macintosh is a far superior machine in fit and finish to any PC. And you know what? Why would you want would-be hackers to take an interest in the compuer you use? I'd be perfectly happy with hackers having no interest in the computer I use. Now that macs will run WinXP, pretty much naturally, the only thing that keeps me from buying one is the cost factor. Other than that, I don't see any reason to buy a PC. BTW, this Mac Vs. PC debate is older than time itself. SHUT UP.
All you morons who are downvoting this obviously forgot what the ytmnd was about instantly after viewing it or didn't even see it at all. It's not bashing Macs but those unbelievably lame Mac commercials that try to berate PCs in amazingly superficial ways. Why are Mac users always so over-defensive when it comes to this?
i had a buddy that worked for the department of defense, there's no way in hell they would use a mac for anything important. macs are the same f*ckin thing as a PC just with a more limited interface that caters to the "creative" douchebags that think a fruity interface and LCD optimized video drivers means that it's better for creating media.
Alot less secrutiy flaws, is another term for "No one gave have a sh*t enough to LOOK for a security flaw" since the mac really ISN'T worth hacking. Its alot less customizable too, sure you can load up windows xp and its all good right? Wrong, you still payed more for lower specs, I'd rather spend that extra money towards better CUSTOMIZABLE hardware, instead of something you have to throw out when your done with it.
Well Actually bootcampp is going to suck because then not only will Mac be vulnerable with weak hardware to viruses but the viruses from PC and Mac will merge and create a c*cktail of bad mojo that will cause you to pay steve jobs money to fix it.
Also, John Locke was a man who helped come up with a social contract that was pro-anarchy
I really have nothing against Macs or mac users, but those commercials really suck. I'm pretty sure almost everybody, those who use macs and those who do not, agree with me. The commercials potray mac users as really arrogant, and no one wants to be that (Although, he is only an actor, I'm not actually mad at HIM). And the PC character is just so loveable, and many can relate to him. Apple's ads really have backfired with many people.
I love how people that use PCs make up the majority of the population and still feel the need to constantly insult and belittle the Macintosh and its users. Is it really that enjoyable to pick on a clear minority? What is this? Penis envy, or just Nazi mentality?
By the way, it seems quite telling how Mac-bashing and gay-bashing seem to go hand in hand.
As for this site, I didn't find it particularly clever and the computer voices are annoying and incoherrent at some points.

LMAO LOL… YOU JUST OWNED YOUR SELF!! OMFG let me guess you own a Mac because it’s the computer of Republicans, U ass!
...and as you can see from the posts here, Mac users just hate to be insulted. However, they don't mind insulting PC users (or at least attempting to do so with their crappy advertising). Perhaps if they stopped thinking that they're so special for using that platform and lose the attitude, then Mac vs. PC arguments would not need to exist.
"Seeing Windows user crying like babies for our superiority always make me laugh ;) Thank you PC-losers ;) "- Actually, no one has ever cried over this. We are simply sick and tired of being condescended to by a small clique of people who feel a need to belittle those who use a more popular type of computer in order to feel better about themselves.
