Wow... I'm sick of windows.

Post by WiizerFanboy »

So my first week back on windows, and I already got hit by a deadly virus that deleted all of my files on my main windows account. Even though I:

- Deleted IE

- Only use Firefox ( and installed numerous pop-up blocking/anti-virus plugins )

- had AVG with everything on.

I STILL caught a very big virus. I'm sick of this shit. I can't blink without having to be on constant alert of a virus. It's annoying as fuck. It's time to get a Mac.

Yeah, I originally got my mac out of frustration too. Haven't regretted it since, either.

None!.... ok.. like.... 10 BUT i've never gotten viruses from them before < : (.


I got so pissed when this happened. I seriousley want to break the nose of the one nerd who decided to invent computer viruses....

Thank god I have 2 admin accounts or I would've been screwed.

Break, I want to get a MAC so bad, but I'll have to sacrifice gaming for it. I'll probally get a Mac laptop and leave my Windows desktop strictly for gaming.

I dunno, there haven't been any PC exclusive games that I've wanted to play since my "switch." Aren't most of the decent PC games 360 bound?

Troof. Like I've been saying for years, PC gaming is dead.

What keeps me on the PC side is the abundancy of cheap upgrades for AMD processors and the scene for completely legal software.

There's pretty equal amount of theft for PC and Mac.

The only thing I dl are TV shows I miss, but like every mac app is shown when I go to look because I'm using Safari.

Well, I am somewhat of a big pirate. I love Free Stuff :oops: . Its the only way that I can feel that some things in life are free :D . I guess the only games I ever thought were worth purchasing for the PC a little before the PC market went down the crapper were Battlefield 2, and UT2004. Reason being because they were IMO the last GOOD PC games before everything fell down the toilet. and They both have amazing online O_O.

ok so i'm planning on getting a mac book. My PC will be JUST for gaming and TVersity unless there's a good mac version. Everything else besides gaming I'll use the mac for. I just wish there was a way to use mac OSX on PC hardware like Linux's Live CD's so I can try it out. I've never used a apple OS in my life. As long as I'm free of the burden of viruses it wont matter much. Break has there ever been a problem with your apple experience?

screw that retrofitting. Go to Apple's page, they are selling refurbished Macbooks with a warranty.
