My Windows 7 blasts your mac books away because of user friendly browsing and easier to access things.
User-friendliness and easier access? I don't see how Windows 7 beats Mac OS X in those regards.
EDIT: I have a 2007 iMac that runs OS X Snow Leopard, Windows XP, and Ubuntu Linux.
EDIT: Also, let's not start the age-old Mac vs. Windows flame war.

I'm going to fix this debate once and for all having owned both devices. macs better for work but over priced aswell as compatibility issues (did I metiob over priced?) pc is cheap compatible and generally faster. so depends on your needs and budgets. so there stop the centuries biggest debate :p

Why?
Bear Grylls is nothing compared to a real survivalist or bushcrafter, he's stupid, he doesn't teach you about real survival, if you listened to him in a real life of death situation you would die... from dehydration....

How do you know that Bear Grylls isn't a real survivalist? Did you try his advice and nearly die?

Macs aren't overpriced. You're paying extra for a sexy looking computer. Maybe if you don't care about the way it looks then they're overpriced. Mmm, Sandy Bridge IMac.

My Lenovo Ideapad is sexy. It is overpriced because of its qualities, but still. It's sexy, and you don't need a mac to have a sexy computer.

I would drop in the half-gutted TVs and microwave ovens which they refused to take away at the recycle yard mad

Seeing as though this thread has basically turned into a win v mac v linux thread I will just leave this here.
