Fact #1: Apple uses alot of the best hardware out there, alot of IBM. They use PowerPC for their processors, again by IBM, the G3 and G4 are dirivitives of the PowerPC 7xx series (i belive)... the G3 is in fact a 64bit chip, and the G4 is infact a 128bit chip.

The G3 is in fact NOT a 64bit processor, and the G4 is certainly not 128, nor is it 64. 64bit processors do not exist for the home computing market. You've already proved your excessive idiocy in that one statement, since 64bit processors are developed, as of right now, exclusively for the server market.

Anyone who says WindowsXP doesn't have security problems and doesnt eat close to 512mb of ram is a *****.

Sorry, you're the ***** in this case. Up until about a month ago, I had 128MB of RAM. Guess what? XP performed at excellent speeds and had no security problems. With the built-in firewall equipped, I was EXTREMELY secure.

First off, on my first examination of XP it only took me a week to figure out how to fully comprimise any XP system remotely. (I do security consulting)

You don't THINK XP consumes close to 512mb of ram because XP does a nifty trick with Virtuial Memory, meaning it can run on as little as 128MB RAM, but it's very, very, slow compared to and XP system with 512MB ram. Don't belive Microsoft, run a memory benchmarking program and see for yourself. Windows 2000 ate over 200MB RAM without running applications.

My GOD. You ARE stupid. You're apparently the best hacker in the world, since DOZENS of security sites have made testaments to XP's security, and I've tested it myself.

I know XP doesn't consume anything NEAR 512MB of RAM. Windows 2000 eats far under 200 megabytes of RAM without running applications. It runs, at the most, maybe 40.

Get a brain, you're not the only intelligent person, and you're not even that smart.

Apple's are beautiful machines. Try one before you diss it.

As for the school that has a (wow) "network" and a (doubble wow) firewall, almost every school does. Because of the saleries that the Education field offers, anyone who knows what they are really doing isn't waisting their time at a school. Firewalls are easy to setup nowadays, ytou can buy appliances that have easy instructions. Unfortinately, these are usualy peices of crap, and are, in most cases, useless after an idoit gets their hands on them. A firewall is only one component of many for network security. I can eaisly penitrate their internet router, spoof my IP, and get inside the network with little trouble if this school is like most BAD network setups I've seen.

Argueing with people who don't know what they are talking about is fun, but a waste of time. So I'll move on to another topic.

Not every school. Come to my school, a TECHNOLOGY school, and you'll see what I mean.

Apples, or if you'd prefer, Macintoshes, are beautiful systems. I use them quite frequently, and whenever I have a chance to snag some time on one that uses OS X, I do.

Nothing out there, is more sleek and stylish then a Mac, they are gorgeous, and the most powerful, home user, computers avible today. The price is very competive as well.

Anyone who says they hate Mac is just saying that because they dont understand how to use it properly, and are intimidated by them. So they make up excuesses to dislike them without ever having really used one... You usualy see this in pompus 'administrators' who like to talk over everyones head to make it SEEM like they know what they're talking about, when in reality, most of them can't even do simple IP classless subnetting...

I bow in front of your idiocy.

Macs are sleek and stylish, yes, perhaps you might even use the term "gorgeous".

Unfortunately, they are not the most powerful home user computer, or if you'd like to be more modern, desktop computer available today. Prices are not competetive at all.

I never said I hated Mac. It's not really hard to use one, unless you're a ***** who grew up with Windows 98 or higher. I've simply been criticizing your immense lack of knowledge.
