# Reminds me
why I never owned a Mac ;P

# It was 9 inches
of black and white goodness! You could see a good third of a page in a way that looked something like you'd end up printing out on a behemoth printer.

My AppleWriter weighed 3 whole stones!

# While I was sat
there with a ZX Spectrum and a thermal receipt printer :)

# I bet that was handy
for printing school work!

I still have it all knocking around somewhere. The mac needs a bit of fixing mind.

# Nah, I went to
one of those "handwriting" schools. ;o)
The Mac does need fixing, yes.

# I'm left handed
with a habit of smudging what I've written and I write in teeny tiny handwriting.

# I love the fact it says
"Mouse button"

I couldn't live without a right click:'(

# I like having
A mouse wheel, 3rd, 4th and 5th mouse buttons too...

Hell, more mouse buttons, it saves me having to use my other hand on the keyboard!

# I have a mac
and I have a three button wheel mouse.
I've had at least two buttons on my mac since 1997.
you pc users are going to have to come up with a better complaint than that one about macs. it's all I ever hear. "macs are shit because they only have one mouse button and I can't play such-and-such game on it and I can't afford it."
well, 1) hasn't been true for years. 2) buy a playstation. playing games on a computer is gay. 3) you get what you pay for. I chose to be poorer and have a better computer.
4) hi fuzzbucket! I saw some funny pictures of you taken just mere hours ago! and you looked wasted in them already? what state are you in now?

# did you pass out
and sleep off a few pints?
they didn't say anything, you just looked sort of 2 1/2 sheets.

# Anything where I have to drag my cd's and disks to the
trash can to ekect them is a worrying sign. The fact that the macs in our computing lab won't let me play audio cd's on them.

Havn't tried os X though...

# It's purty
just puts some things in odd spots, but other than that.

Top of my list to santa: G4 Tower + 20" LCD display.

# it's totally different
it does do some weird stuff.
but I think they're trying to retrain old mac users to do new better tricks, like stop using list displays and start using the new multiple folders thingy.
sure, there are things about it that piss me off, that's inherent in any tool.
I dunno, I hear great things about windows XP, maybe it's really good too.

# xp's okay
bit too flashy runs things more slowly than 98. Still crashes: my computer just freezes every week or so...

# sigh
apple+E ejects CDs.
macs will play audio CDs, unless someone has programmed them not to, or your macs are from the early nineties/late eighties.
osx rekindled my love for mac. just before that I was saying, "you know...these aren't that fucking great. maybe I'll get a new pc next time I buy." then osx came out and life is good.

# I object to 2
