I thought this was pretty lame until version 1.3, then had myself a good SNORK.

Hi, I'm a MAC.
Hi, I'm a PC.
We're both first.

Sorry, my PC half came down with a virus that prevented actually being first.

what ever happened to that stoner "dude, your getting a Dell" guy?

mud -- That dude blew up.

Mudstuffin,
the stoner dude who did that ad got caught with what made him a stoner. Don't know if served time or not, Dell then dropped the ads and probably burned every copy of them.

By throwing them on a burning laptop.

Excellent, especially as Mr. PC reminds me of the annoying nerd I hate from West Wing.

Sorry, that was Mr. MAC!
What a moron (me, not him).

Every nerd knows that games are best on a PC. So I've been told.

Mudstuffin/RedRat: The dude lives in my son's apartment building in NYC. (They also went to NYU together). After a minor run-in with law enforcement his services were no longer required by Dell. As far as I know he's still working as an actor, though.

Mr Dude is also an Eagle Scout and otherwise a quite upstanding young man, as I'm told by Scouters that knew him.

Having spent time the last two-weeks trying to help my brother with the Mac/ PC dilemna, that was great. For the record, Mac performance is awesome, but boy is there ever a price premium. My brother will have to part with his dong.

CJrun -
I've heard of things costing an arm and a leg before, but that's just ridiculous.
Apologies if someone already made this joke on the dong thread. And yes "Dong Thread".....nuff said.

Yeah the PC/Mac reference is great. They forgot to mention that PC has games and Mac.
Posted by: Alfred | July 10, 2006 at 05:41 PM
oh yeah Jeff...Joshua Malina? he does look like him. I don't hate him that much though, but he wasn't a good replacement for Rob Lowe.

Mac Guy: I'm a Mac.
PC Guy: I'm a PC.
MG: Macs can edit video, music, or images.
PCG: PCs can also edit video, music and images.
MG: Yah, but with a PC you have to buy a program, install it, configure your PC to make sure it works.
PCG: That's true. Reading the specifications on your software is important.
MG: But with a Mac, you don't have to do any of that. You buy a computer, bring it home, and it already has everything you'll ever need installed on it. No reading required. It's completely idiot proof.
PCG: (Gestures to MG) Case in point...

Mac Guy: I'm Mac.
PC Guy: I'm PC.
MG: I'm a total non-conformist.
PCG: So am I.
MG: Wait. No, dude, you're not. You own a PC.
PCG: And your point is...?
MG: PC's are total conformity boxes. We... all... must... be... beige... boxes... in... cubicles.
PCG: I built my PC from the motherboard up. I have a motherboard that I bought direct from Intel, with dual-overclocked GeForce graphics cards that I'm cooling with a liquid cooling system that I designed myself. I have 4GB of RAM, a 160GB hard drive, a DVD re-writable drive, and ports for every flash memory format there is.
MG: But what color is it?
PCG: Beige.
MG: Haha! Micro$oft zombie tool! My mac is sleek, sleek white and chrome.
PCG: But what's inside it?
MG: Duh! Same thing that's in every other Mac on the market. That's why I'm a nonconformist! DURR!

Smug alert!

Apologies-- the Mac versus PC debate makes me deploy my snark module.
