I think the reason girls are more accepting of macs is that it is socially acceptable for a girl to ask questions and make it clear they don't know about something, while guys tend to avoid any suggestion they are not lords of their realm.
In Australia, there are two types of car: Holden and Ford. If you take an interest in, say, Jaguars or Volvos you will be ridiculed - but only by the guys. The girls LOVE jaguars and volvos and volkswagens and so on.

Anyway, I just came from a lecture where the lecturer listed M$ Word as a "presentation and multimedia package", then went on to say that it is "inefficient and clunky, and shouldn't be used for anything other than word processing."
When he was asked why by some of the M$ fans in the room, he went off on a rhetoric of why M$ makes bad software. He then apologised and said, "That said, I've spent about $2000 on Microsoft products this year, so they must be doing something right."
He then went on to describe Windows XP's ground-breaking features such as burning CDs from the OS, and the new Movie Maker. Then added "Of course, Macs have been able to do both of these things for about four years now, but Microsoft have done a fantastic job of ... umm, copying ... shall we say adapting these features, and Macs are pretty much useless."
You really have to wonder how someone who spends $2000 a year on MS products can be so block-headed.

ok, so now that Phil and all you other porta-mac users have discovered how to meet girls, you are going to need some advice for dating. I have searched the most advanced sources available and found these to ensure you will continue dating after the first date.

and to make sure you dance like a pro click here

I hope no one finds these too difficult. While being yourself is the most important thing, saying and doing the right things never hurts.

crahahahahahahaha!

That's just preciously brilliant Ed.




I must admit to mastering the basic twirl myself.
Ladies care to dance?

Nice.

I must admit that my gf actually abhors macs, and really isn't that technically intuitive. Must be my inner ENTP lawyer manifesting itself.

Have managed to get 3 of my past girlfriends to use Macs. The downside? You know the 'favourite T-shirt' syndrome, where you break up and they always end up with a favourite bit of clothing? Well, my exes always seem to end up with my old Powerbooks...

Hey, what's happening to me? Suddenly I have this urge to be Tismeys ex

[ksuther]

Ummm, maybe a new topic right about now?
