Just relax a bit. I know it's personal !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I love Macs but the users............Jeeeeezzzzz heheheI wish I had a girlfriend in highschool !Here's what one of the "big" Norwegian resellers, "Hifi-Klubben", said about Apple's customerservice in Norway a few months ago. They have stopped their Ipod sale just because Apple will not follow Norwegian customerservice-laws on these kind of products. If you don't trust my earlier words, James, it's up to you to get the article translated;-) http://www.vg.no/pub/vgart.hbs?artid=133909

God speed. >AA > That really sucks. That's the ONLY Christmas movie we'll watch. My wife directed the stage version of ACS a couple of years back, and I played Shep's part. In the stage version, the Narrator (grown-up Ralphie) is on stage, and narrates throughout the play and occasionally plays other parts, such as Red Ryder and the Christmas tree salesman. Isn't it always the way that the fucked-up drunk loser asshole driver with no license manages to get in a wreck, kill someone who's actually worth a shit, and then walks away with minor injuries? That always happens, and it never ceases to piss me off. pabJames let's keep one thing straight, I said I was "giving you a hard time" because you wouldn't back of from the hyperbole and look at your argument or anyone else's objectively. You would follow up a technical comparison with "Macs are better", "Macs look slick", or "Microsoft steals". Hardly established provable debating points. FYI: Giving you a hard time means "joking around with you", "ribbing you", "teasing", etc. I used humor many times, thinking you would get the idea and realize how silly some of your comments sounded and just laugh it off, but apparently it was lost on you, and instead you took it personally. It's NEVER (can I make that any clearer?), been personal with me until you insulted me and my faith directly, even though that had nothing to do with the conversatio
c debate whether it was the topic or not. The problem isn't me stating my opinion, it's you selectively seeing what you want when reading my posts - as if I were writing in Chinese. Like I've said over and over again, I don't care if you love Macs - great, cool by me - just try to respect everyone else here when you post and realize that your opinion isn't the last word on the subject, whether we agree with you or not. Personal insults and bullying will get you nowhere. Congrats though, you <br
/> are the first to ever say those words to me, if that tells you anything. And you said it twice. So, how about a truce? Drop the personal insults is all I ask. I have no interest in this topic (PC vs. Mac) anymore since it seems to have hit a nerve with you, so I won't be posting anymore on platform issues (if I post at all), regardless of how technical or actually useful it would be - just too prone to diversion lately. You can do whatever you want. If there's too much Mac noise here, there are other forums - no sweat off my back in finding another place to converse reasonably.
