To solve all computer problems, buy a mac...
Mac's aren't immune to everything.
But they kick PC's right in the ass at almost everything.
See this is why I do my own repairs then if I feth up I'm the one I can get mad at about it
I've fixed my own PS2 and past PCs so many times now it's funny when you think about it. I had one computer that I saved from my mates bin as it was so screwed up and for about 5 years after I repaired it, it ran fine in the end I was being called the technomancer where I worked because I could ressurect the "dead computers" PS2s are easy to fix once you have done a few most of the time it's merely a matter of cleaning the laser itself (don't use the discs they suck, open her up if you're confident enough and use an air can to spray it clean. Warning; doing so will void the warranty with sony so do so at your own risk if you know someone with a trashed ps2 I suggest practicing but then with about 7 different series of the ps2 it gets hard to work on all of them)
Don't go to pc world ever though with a problem because their standard fix proceedure is often to format and re-install even if the problem isn't the hard drive, they charge £25 for looking at it and diagnosing it then the cost of repairs (new copy of xp home = £300) and once that doesn't work they'll charge you another £25 + repairs to fix the real problem
Macs actually suffer from some horrible security flaws. No one really abuses them though, because its not worth learning just to piss off 1% of the world.Originally Posted by Dreddz
One such flaw is a driver of sorts (my buddy from work informed me of this) has a major design flaw which can compromise the system and allow a remote logon to root. Now that sucks. Especially since mac is a propiatary hardware/software set up, such problems are in a way, not supposed to happen.
And a Mac does not anihalate PC archetecture anymore, it is quite the other way around. Unless if you are talking of Window$ VS Mac OS X, then you would be quite correct.

The only reason I am not getting a Mac is the lack of Game support, and the fact that Windows programs aren't fully supported. I am going to wait till they run better.
Macs can pretty much do everything a PC can do, gaming being the exception...
I am talking about Mac OS X, I own a G5 and and a G4 in my room, I only go on my Laptop to play games. My Mac is more efficient most of the time...Unless if you are talking of Window$ VS Mac OS X, then you would be quite correct.

I backup things all of the time, if only so I can delete it from my hard drive and save space. I don't really have anything that I absolutely need. Perhaps I should make hard copies of my notes when I start school again.
