What's the matter Asher? You really don't get it that people don't have to go Wintel to have a successful, enjoyable computing experience? |

That's not what this thread is about. I don't give a crap if people buy Macs, I give a crap when Apple is sleazy with its advertising. I personally don't like them, I don't care if others do.
Now when are you going to clue in that this thread is about :
1) Hardware capabilities
2) Marketing bullshit
rather than Windows or MacOS is better?
The sooner, the better.
quote: You put up a thread saying Apple are announcing a new machine - and then you go balls out to find every weakness in their argument.
Not even realising the weakness in your own - that P4's DON'T COMPETE WITH RUNNING MAC SOFTWARE!!!
Got it now? Or do I have to use a bigger point size? |
Hey genius -- are you telling me SPEC and Photoshop don't run on P4s?
That's NOT MY ARGUMENT. Do I need to use a bigger point size? If you'd care to pay attention, I'm interested in the technical capabilities of the chip and Apple's incessant bullshit about them. I don't care what programs they run, as I'll never use one, but as a geek it is my duty to keep up with technology because I find it fascinating, and I find it disgusting that Apple markets it the way they do.
You're being so stupid here because you're constantly trying some other argument and wonder why I ignore your previous posts.
I will reiterate it as you apparently have difficulty reading:
I don't care what people buy, I don't care what software the G5 runs.
Comprende?

I agree with his view completely (aside from the "we should wait for independent sources") -- in fact I've expressed similar views here. You apparently skipped the post, it's the same one where I discussed how Apple's "response" to the accusations digs themselves deeper. Not only did they insist their bullshit was true, they added more lies to the mix which anyone can verify with google.
quote: The last sentence expresses roughly what Cloud9 and I have been saying for most of the thread (as far as I can remember).
So either you are going to admit that this guy has it right (because you are putting him forward as an authority on the subject) in which case Cloud9 and I win the argument; or you admit that this guy doesn't know what he's talking about, in which case you are an idiot for putting him forward as an authority - and we win; or you didn't read it and you are being dishonest - and Cloud9 and I win the argument. |

Again, you pull this "you agree with the whole thing or you disagree with the whole thing or you admit you lie!"
Does that actually work in the Philosophy departments? If so, that's fascinating...
I don't believe you need an "independent" source to go over it, although it would be nice, but for whatever reason Apple refuses to allow independent sources to get their hands on it. I'll leave it to your superb logic skills to figure out why.
quote: Whichever way it goes you are screwed. You really have to be more careful about what you link to. |
You have to actually think before posting. Really, Agathon. It's astounding.

Let's face facts -- Apple, without a doubt, bullshitted and skewed their benchmarks.
Agathon and Drake are ignoring that fact, plugging their ears.
And you are on some absolutely irrelevant discussion and trying to "get me into a corner" over something I'm not even talking about.
The problem is not me and my "narrow-view", the problem is Apple's been publically busted in cheating, the Mac users are willfully remaining ignorant about it, and you don't have a clue what's going on in this thread.
My views are wide open -- I think BSD is the best server OS, I think Alpha is the best CPU dsign ever. I also think Windows is the best desktop OS (because, well, it is) and Intel makes the best desktop chips (because, well, they do).
You call me narrow-minded because I hold opinions on these things, and I don't change them because a clueless philosophy professor and some brain-fried druggie from England present rhetoric and red herrings. My opinions haven't changed because no one has presented any competent counter arguments.
And that's your problem, not mine.

Ignoring the fact that a lot of people have heavy investments in their software isn't a very clever thing to do. Most people are careful where their money goes, and most will certainly not consider buying a new system if it means a complete rebuild of their software suite.
I'm sure you would go out and buy a G5 if it had the performance of an Alpha but most of us aren't that narrow viewed - or so unworried about software becoming obsolete.
What's the deal here Asher? Do you pirate? DON'T answer that question... but if you do, how does that fit with your given profession as programmer?

People people people people people people...
You still don't understand, do you? This argument isn't about people. At all. And I don't want to make it into one, because there's no grounds for any arguments. People use what they want to use, end of story.
I'm not arguing against it, so stop acting like I am. People can buy whatever the hell they want for whatever reasons they want.

The argument was about whether the G5 was worth $1,999-$2,999 for people. You said it wasn't, and gave reasons. I said it was, and gave one pretty damn good reason.

Of course not. It was bogus.
Just comparing hardware specs across platforms is meaningless. Comparing what each system offers in terms of running WHICH software on WHICH operating system is not.
I congratulate you on an excellent technical thread. But any thread about a new machine that ignores the consumer it is aimed at doesn't really cover any meaning.

This counts when you are posting something as an authority. That's what you did. You can't offer something as evidence for your view when they disagree with you without additional reasons. In this case you didn't, you just said roughly "here's someone who shows you are wrong".
If you want to use them as evidence without relying on them as an authority, you need to come up with your own independent arguments, which you didn't do.
Let me give you an example. If I were to say, "look at this article on Albertan separatism, this guy is a knowledgeable source, he shows that Albertan separatism is unconstitutional". You read it and the guy gives several arguments against separation.
Then you read it to the end and the conclusion says, "Albertan separatism may be unconstitutional, given what I have said, but further investigation needs to be done".
If I said to you, "look this guy shows that you are wrong, he's an authority, separatism is unconstitutional", you would be entirely justified in pouring scorn on me, because I've offered in support of my view an authority who disagrees with me without providing additional commentary on why his conclusion doesn't follow from the premises. This is basic first year logic.
That's what you've done - you endorsed a link to someone that disagrees with your extreme take on the matter, without providing any of the (required) supplementary argument. It's quite simple, although you don't seem to get it since you've done it three times during arguments with me now.
quote: Does that actually work in the Philosophy departments? If so, that's fascinating... |
Yes it does - its called refraining from misleading quotations and misrepresentation. If I were to do this in a piece of academic work I would fail.
