  1. That’s sweet! Is the real ‘PC guy’ within the crowd? I can’t seem to find him. Come to think of it are there any ppl apart from the South Park boys (and Batman!) we’re meant to recognise?

  2. .m:
    “you have never used a mac don’t you”
    wow… simply wow.

    Tell me this: why on earth should I take stock in any of your opinions if you aren’t educated enough to form even one simple sentence? Please keep your hands away from the keyboard until your views are backed up with a shred of evidence (no, Justin Long’s testament doesn’t count).

    P.S. – I enjoyed the Linux user the most, but we’re usually more hairy =P

  3. To TD:

    When he actually uses a Mac for the first time and realizes the programmers of Winblows must take it up the ass when they write the code for windblows…

  4. I bet all you PC users all drink Budweiser and drive GM’s too.
    Market share = nothing relative to quality.

    With my sincerest best wishes to all the PC drones: good luck with all the viruses, malware, and numerous interruptions to our productivity. Seriously, it’s getting annoying when ever I walk into my bank, talk to customer service, check into my gym(happened this morning), try to make reservations, or try to order anything, and I get the ‘my system’s down right now’ or ‘my system’s really slow today’ excuse.

    Justin Long is an actor reading lines of script, just like Martin Sheen while he was “President of the United States.”
    If you’re confused…god help ya.

    Ironic to this “OS religious war” SouthPark is produced on SGI machines.

  5. Mac sure looks happy compared to the PCs…

  6. Awesome! But one question…

    I see Kenny, Kyle, a couple of Stans, Robin Hood pops up a couple of times, Batman is there and there quite a few Village People, but

    WHERE THE HELL IS CARTMAN????? 🙂

    Great post Long!

  7. @jwo
    Urrr, and SGIs have been “PC compatible” for years. The problem with Mac zealots
    is that, besides forgetting what the term actually means, they conflate architecture with operating system. i.e; Baldy in the corner “I run Linux.”
    And BSD. And Solaris. And FreeDOS. And ReactOS. And BeOS. And and and You’ve may have heard of the Microsfot tax, well at least it’s optional.

  8. Macs are gay

    Macs represent conformity, as there is hardly any choice when buying on.

    you can run limited software, and games

    PC’s represent choice

    theres many cases, monitors, keyboards.. etc.. you get what im saying.

    with a pc you can run linux, heh.. emulating osx isn’t hard.

    let me put it this way.

    Macs are made for Retards, hence the simplistic approach

    PC’s are made for normal people, who prefer support over cheesy white plastic…

  9. @Danial:

    conformity
    noun

    Compliance with standards, rules, or laws : conformity to regulations | the goods were in conformity with the contract. • behavior in accordance with socially accepted conventions or standards : loyalty to one’s party need not imply unquestioning conformity.

    I’m fine with my computer representing that and also, what exactly in “buying on”?

  10. Want have the latest and greatest hardware?
    Want the ability to upgrade your computer?
    Want to play games and use popular software?
    Want more than one button on you mouse?
    Want out of the box compatibility with nearly every peripheral ever made?
    Want to not pay allot for this muffler?
    In other words, do you want diversity?
    Then you want a PC.

    Want near zero choice in hardware options?
    Want to use last years technology?
    Want upgrade to mean throw the old machine our and buy a new one?
    Want to never play games or use the software the rest of the world uses?
    Want to have questionable peripheral support?
    Want to pay 10 times more what you should?
    Want to be locked into crappy proprietary hardware and software?
    Then you want a Mac.

    PC = Power and choice at a reasonable price.
    Apple = Last years proprietary technology at inflated prices.

    If you are young and hip with a sense of individuality you own a PC, because it can be customized to your specifications; it becomes a reflection of your ego, and still have money left over for a car, school, and something besides ramen noodles.

    Mac users think they are being anti establishment by choosing a Mac over a PC, but fighting the machine by locking yourself into someone else’s version of your needs is reminiscent joining any other brainwashing cult that wants you to hand over all of your cash.

    The above picture illustrates that Mac users are cheesy white guys who think they are hip because they over paid for something that doesn’t work and that PC users are more diverse than that.

    Apple has, and always will, suck.

  11. I like running Windows on my Mac. When the system dies unexpectedly or bogs down checking for viruses and protecting me from Microsoft’s bloated, sloppy code, I upgrade by rebooting into MacOS X or Linux.

  12. I own 3 Apple Machines. 1 PC.

    Year 2000 G3 400
    A Pismo PowerBook.
    Running Tiger. 1GB Non Apple Ram, 40GB HD, 54MBps Extreme PCMCIA Buffalo.
    I keep it because it was my first Apple. I have had 20 PC’s.

    Year 2004 G4 1.25
    An Aluminum PB. Running Tiger. 1.25 GB Ram Wide Screen. 80GB HD, 54MBps AP.
    All stock.

    Year 1999?
    PowerMac G4 450. Running Tiger. Aftermarket AGP Graphics. Aftermarket 2GB Ram.
    Aftermarket 80GB 7200RPM HD x 2. Aftermarket 54MBps Wireless. Aftermarket USB Firewire ports and cardreaders on the front panel. Aftermarket DVD Burner.

    A KVM USB 2 Port Splitter.

    The PowerMac shares a Monitor/ Dell Keyboard with built-in USB Ports/ An Aftermarket Mouse with 2 Buttons With a
    Year 2004 P4 Intel
    Dell 4600 Dimension. 2.8 GHz, 3GB Ram, 200GB HD x2, 256MB Graphics, 2 Burners. 54MBps Wireless.

    I like my desktop set-up. I can game. I can do anything.

    So I still own a PC.
    Macs can be updated when new OS’s come out.
    Aftermarket Hardware will work.
    Both Platforms are useful.
    I don’t want XP Pro on a Mac yet. When I game I want to do it on a PC.
    I work on a MAC.

    I like them all.
    If I had to pick 2. I would keep my G4 15 inch PowerBook with the wide screen and The Dell Desktop.

    If I had to only keep one. The Dell would have to go.

    These are OS’s and hardware not a religions. Nations should not war over them. People should not fight over them.

    In conclusion, You all seem to be dicks.

  13. @ PeopleGeek

    THANK YOU

    p.s. (to Danial) what are you? 13? using “gay” and “retarded” as forms of expletives does not really prove your argument that PC users are “normal”. you’re just embarrassing your peers.

  14. Wow, it’s funny how defensive people are about their OS religions. Macs suck and Windows rocks – it’s really very simple! 😛

  15. Mac worshippers are great at dishing out their anti-windows jokes, cliches and insults, but they suddenly lose their sense of humour when the jokes are aimed at them.

  16. It’s become Mac vs PC war rigth now. Why we have to be brand’s slave? Why we need to fighting for who is the best (PC or Mac)? It’s really nonsense, guy. You just buy and use what you like and what’s good for you, nothing can be the best for every aspect — don’t lie to yourself. I think Long try to point to another fact rather than for the battle.

  17. Great job and… oh, it’s so funny 🙂
    “I’m a Mac” at home and, “I’m a PC” at work. The first one is perfect at home because of it’s a “no problem” machine. It works well and I don’t have to loose time over the many Pc things (as virus, blue screen, etc etc). It is also a long life machine… I’ve an old iMac G3 (1999) and it works as well as my iMac G5.
    In my job is better the PC. I can open my pc and install hardware built by me (with not worry of… doing great damages) or… well it is more versatile than a Mac… Obviously, windows lacks in many things but, nothing and no one is perfect in this world, isn’t it?
    Maybe… I could ask to Microsoft guys to “copy” the way applications are on Mac’s system. I suppose I’ll give a more stable way to run…

    Sorry for my rusty english… I’m Italian 😛

  18. Awesome. Except the Mac user doesn’t have a turtleneck with some Kool-Aid mix in his hand. Other than that, perfect.

  19. Is that a pirate and Hulk Hogan? LOL

    Except Hogan’s skin color is really wierd… maybe it’s not Hogan…

  20. Mac’s suck. They are obnoxuious just like their users. They do have pretty 30″ screens though, but an XP, customized how i want, is prettier on a 30″.

    And yeah, it was the iPOD that even gave life to Macs, just like eBay gave life to an otherwise bankrupt Post Office, because of the inclusion of UPS and FedEx.

  21. only a question: do u have request the royalitis and permission to publicated the pictures of south park on your blog????? 🙂
    i use only free softwares and free materials 🙂
    io

  22. Hmmm. If it’s more about the diversity of the users, and not how many there are, it would’ve been better to have an equal number of identical “Mac men” in the top half.

    Still good, though. 😛

  23. Y’know, with my recent installation of Vista, I’ve been thinking about it a lot, and I realized–

    The Mac people are *right*. Windows *does* constantly screw me over. It crashes, freezes, has inexplicable slowdowns, etc.

    But would I give it up? Hell no. Glitchy or not, Windows is still the best-supported OS out there, and the only one that allows for constant hardware upgrades while still maintaining user-friendliness. And assuming you have the patience to deal with the glitches, Windows IS intuitive and user-friendly. Oh, and hardcore gamer that I am, I only need to point you all to Long’s own http://www.gamesformacs.com to show you the main reason I love it. (And to seal the deal, http://media.pc.ign.com/media/694/694190/imgs_1.html )

  24. Now, that’s such a bunch of HS! I’m running AVG anti virus software now on Win Vista, but I could as well use nothing for a while. I’ve been ultra-checking my machine for years with Norton Antivirus and the only folder that was always found “dirty” was the one I used to download my stuff into. So, if you stay away from .torrents, e-Mules, Limewires and porn sites —damn hard to do, I agree—, your life should be a walk in the park. Well, most of the time.

    But then again, Mr. Mac zealot, HERE’S THE TRUTH: who the heck wants to behave when having fun? You’re not having bruises because you’re not getting outta the house! Now, adventure means that: being exposed. It’s normal. Life’s full of bacteria!!!!

    Now don’t come and tell me life=iLife=FUN. Fun is being out in the open. Fun is is getting your hands dirty. Fun is being naughty. Fun is living it out!

    Wouldn’t you want me to lend you a couple of viruses, ha? A tiny, harmless one? Just to find out how it feels to be ALIVE??

  25. I’ve been a long time PC user until this christmas when my girlfriend gave me a MacBook for my birthday and i mosta admit that is impressive i don’t mean PC sucks but i most admit that Mac rules.

  26. So the bottom line is that PCs are good for upgrades, faster technology at better prices, and wide compatibilty with software. Macs are good because they are simple and easy to use, dont freeze or glitch as much, dont have security issues and have slower technology because you cannot tailor them?

  27. You guys are so retarted. Windows supporters are just to lazy to switch to the higher technology. The only reason mac is not the largest computer software company is because people do not feel like switching, not because windows is better. People have been using Windows all their life and they are ignorant in switching.

  28. Anti-spyware, Ad-blocker, anti-spam, anti-virus, firewall,Anti-phishing filters, the amount of shit running to protect your PC doesn’t leave much capacity for anything else…..FUCK this, I’m off to buy a MAC !!

  29. Vista is the best and windows have the more intensly broader vison and strategy to cover technological developments.
    Apple marketing is childish – Apple feed into the imagination of consumers to buy a good looking product capable of providing a platform for easy lifestyle tasking and running software. They do not in my opinion look at the programmatic issues concerned with complexities of forward thinking technologies.

  30. Guys, things are really really simple: both Macs and PCs have their pros and cons. Now, someone may say that in a Mac the pros outnumber the cons or the other way around. All this however was before they introduced Intel-based Macs that run Windows (even Vista!) NATIVELY (meaning it runs like it would on a PC and possibly faster). Now ONLY MAC users can have the best of two worlds–> END OF DISCUSSION!

  31. More PC users than Mac users. So?

    Is this supposed to represent some line of logical reasoning?

    There are more Muslims in the world than Christians or Jews. Should one convert to another religion just because another religion has more believers?

    F.Y.I. Batman uses a Mac.

  32. Woah. You guys are way too defensive! It’s just a funny picture. That’s all!

    Well, I thought it was funny anyway.

  33. I love how retarded and biased all those Mac commercials are. They should be like:

    Mac: Hi, I’m a Mac
    PC: And I’m a PC
    Mac: I have this digital camera, I just plug it in and can get my pics lol
    PC: Yeah, it’s called Plug and Play. It’s been around for about 7 years now.
    Mac: I have an onboard mic
    PC: I have 2 8800 GTX video cards in a SLI on my nForce 680i motherboard, 4GB RAM, 11 750 GB Hard Drives in a 8 Terrabyte RAID in my Antec P182 case, water cooling, and I can run Counter Strike: Source and Half-Life 2 at 200 FPS
    Mac: My monitor only has one cable lol

    It’s a fucking joke

  34. I can tell Mac is better because I use both PC an d Mac. The majority of people saying “Mac Sucks” never tried a Mac computer. So, instead of speaking without knowing what you’re saying, go to an Apple Store, try a Mac and then, only then, say your opinion. Until then do us a favor, shut the f… off.

  35. I have both a Mac and a Pc, and i must say that, well… i love the way i can run more than 2 programs on my Pc without it freezing.

  36. In the past I thought like many of the above, that Macs sucked, because they were slow, didn’t play games, etc, blah blah blah. I now realize that macs aren’t so bad. With Bootcamp apparently they are now able to run Microsoft software, like games. But games aren’t the reason that I would get a mac. There are tons of programs specifically for mac that I have become acquainted with and come to desire. I wouldn’t say that either mac or PC is better because firstly it all depends what you would use it for. BY THE WAY macs are not slow those of you who think so have probably just been using an old mac or have never even touched a mac and are just running on speculation. 😉

  37. The things that I have been able to do on a Mac have blown my mind. I have learned more about all hardware and software since I have started to use Macs at home and work, than I have the first 20 years using a PC. My advice: put the joystick down, grow up and move on now before you become embarrassed later. The company I work for wouldn’t pay me to use an inferior computer; productivity is unmatched. Unfortunately, it is not clear what the above illustration is trying to say, just like half the comments from PC users.

  38. Amazing. I actually love re-reading stories such as this, as you really get a good perspective on what the online community is thinking and feeling!

    But yeah, it’s not about fan-wars. Nobody WANTS to support Microsoft or Apple. Both companies are utterly weak, horrific, and beyond pathetic. If I’m gonna support any company, it better have a kickass name. Microsoft? Microprose, Microcock, whatever. Weak. Apple? Oh, come on. Fruit vs. Nerdtalk?

    But all arguments aside, do what you like. I don’t care how my operating system LOOKS. It just better run whatever the hell I want it to, and in my case that means Maya, Rhino, and Photoshop. Multi-cored. 64-bit. Sorry, Apple. You still don’t have one single 64-bit program to date outside your OS. Time in money.

    See all those pretty buildings that you live in, called houses? Those weren’t made on a Mac. You know those plumbing fixtures we all enjoy, and running water? Nope, Macs don’t do that. Notice how all CG movies (aside from South Park, which WASN’T made on SGI computers, but designed in Photoshop on Macs and rendered in Maya on Windows and Linux servers) are actually made on non-Mac platforms? It’s not really a question here.

    Either you seek knowledge, or you believe you have it all. Mac users don’t seek knowledge. Their lives are already over. The wonders of the world belong to the rest of us to enjoy and behold.

  39. Apple needs to grow up, bashing PC to again importance isnt the way to go..

  40. “I have learned more about all hardware and software since I have started to use Macs at home and work, than I have the first 20 years using a PC.” (Freak180)

    Hah haa! You are just now learning what kind of hardware is in a computer? Right when Apple decided to use INTEL hardware, just like Windows PC’s have used the entire time?

    How is this any indication of Macs superiority, when in fact they both use the same hardware now? And how would you still negate the fact that Intel creates inferior hardware anyway? You obviously haven’t “learned” anything at all about hardware. Back to Basic Computer Courses for you, son.

  41. did you guys know that the southpark studios uses final cut pro (mac only) and maya to create the series you love?
    They’re running macs… and you love southpark… just thought you should know.

  42. Aye, and originally they used paper and cameras, Macintyre. Your’e claiming that the weakest of all CG enterprises is any shining example of the Mac’s prowess? How droll.

    The reason they use Macs is simply because they need no level of expertise whatsoever to create South Park. The Macs are simply end-user workstations, which were also entirely subsidized by Apple for the mere reason that in the future people like you would refer to South Park as some shining example of Macdom. It’s an advertising campaign, and you’re their free mouth robot. South Park is easily the LEAST technically challenging of all major CG animation projects, so it’s no wonder they hired high school dropouts who “learned” their software in (also subsidized by Apple) middle school, goofing off between tests.

    Also, did you know that South Park isn’t rendered on Macs, but on illustrious AMD-powered Linux computers?

    http://www.apple.com/pro/profiles/southpark/index2.html

    “The new Mac workstations are fast and reliable. They’re also coupled to a 120-processor (AMD Athlon) Linux render farm. “When we made the switch to Maya on the Mac we were able to use Linux-based boxes for the render farm,” says Franzen. “And we effectively doubled the amount of shots we can do.” Now the system can spit out 30 or more shots an hour. Those shots — and every element of animation — are stored on an 8.5-terabyte Xserve RAID running Xsan.”

    But where he says, “When we made the switch to Maya on the Mac we were able to use Linux-based boxes for the render farm,” he fails to mention that Windows machines interface with the Linux renderfarms BETTER and more efficiently than Macs, and makes it sound like ONLY Macs can use renderfarms. Windows machines ARE renderfarms, compared to Macs.

    So South Park wouldn’t even be POSSIBLE if it were rendered on Macs, Macintyre. They would never finish an episode in time, and Macs themselves will NOT form a render farm like the AMD systems.

    Also, from that page:

    “Hardware

    * 34 Power Mac G5 artist workstations
    * 3 Power Mac G5 Avid Adrenalin workstations
    * 3 Power Mac G5 Pro Tools workstations
    * 10 iMac production staff workstations
    * 15-inch PowerBook production staff workstation
    * 3 Xserve RAID
    * 6 Xserve

    Software

    * Motion
    * Shake
    * Final Cut Pro
    * Xsan
    * Maya
    * Adobe Photoshop
    * Adobe Illustrator
    * Corel Draw
    * Qube
    * Pro Tools”

    So when you stated that they were using Final Cut Pro and Maya, you missed ALL the other applications they use, and on top of all that there is one key app which is cross-platform and makes the entire thing possible: Maya.

    I am a Maya professional as well, only in arch/viz and not entertainment. Did you know that Autodesk hasn’t even developed a 64-bit version of Maya for the Mac? And did you know that it’s Apple’s fault that they couldn’t settle on coding soon enough to allow Autodesk to build this version? And on top of THAT, Autodesk doesn’t even care about the Mac version, because Macs still make up less than 10% of the CG industry!

    Get your facts straight before trying to present us with BS information.

  43. Ok heres the facts on
    mac’s OS
    Window’s OS
    Linux OS

    mac’s are for Video editing picture editing video game design such as car models… music (car sounds engine noises) VERY expensive games… best thing ever to come out of apple is there Iphone iPods and even there no great shake as i could get the same thing as an Ipod for half the price twice the quality. only reason ipods are so expensive is that silver plated back plate on them XD they weigh a ton…. have not gotten a chance to try out the Ipod touch or much of the Iphone…. i do like the iphone tho i was messing around with on at the Rogers store in the Oshawa center.
    Windows depends on the program’s Video editing picture editing game design (all game design) more programs yes windows has viruses but umm hate to tell u but mac’s do too. there just less common cuz nobody needs to break somthing thats already down the tubes.

    Linux OS 🙂
    Free
    modifiable (too big off a word… custom meaning u can change it around but if u dont understand modifiable i wouldn’t endanger ur poor computers life)
    i really do love the linux OS… i recommend you download a linux Live CD from http://www.ubuntu.com just to test it thats what i use… i can still save stuff. n when im done useing linux and want to play video games i’ll restart take the dvd out n load windows. i could just install it but im not into the hole duel boot thing i have done it before i had windows vista windows XP and ubuntu linux on my computer it gets confusing when ur trying to mod games and stuff
    but let me get to the point for linux
    BEST for running servers as it doesnt take as much as windows OS or MAC (i dont know of any servers on mac)
    im sure every OS is good at video editing sound editing etc. depending on the program’s you’ll pay for i do have to say apple is the leading computer’s for most hollywood movie producers but everyone hollywood movie producer has at least one PC 🙂

    lets see looks from a apple laptop or a reg ol toshiba or somthing (banned laptops for this study include
    HP they overheat… how do i know this… thing f***in tried to burn my leg off… and im not the only one…

    apple laptops:
    dont look like thay have a very good cooling system.
    although i have only messed with them at Best buy… lol
    i do like there sleek look same for the iMacs but i honestly dont think i could run a apple flat out like a do my PC… it would be suicide for the poor mac…

    im going to use the BEST fastest laptops u can buy pre made…
    im going to go with alien ware 🙂 hit u hard…
    AWESOME video grafix u can throw some hela lot of hard drive space and memory into thoes things and you know what ummm i think they cost about the same as the most expensive mac laptops 🙂 and if u custom build it (via online) unlike the macs were u get 3 or 2 options…. u can customize EVERYTHING color… screen type DVD rom types hard drives… memory…. hell u can even add on a big high def flat panel TV gaming mouses everything… that will cost a little more obv… but whats worth it… buying a computer that cant run anything more than quicktime n buying expensive programs that are like 200 bucks that i could download for my PC for free… legit…

    its your choice people….

    (no im not a Windows employee. obv)
    no im also not an alien ware employee)
    this is purly truth…
    i was reading somwere about true bright screens on the MAC’s the guy was dissing that… cuz it was annoying… dont sit in the sunlight at starbucks u dumbass the truebright screen is the best f***ing thing ever it does take out the dullness in LCD screens…

    hey if anyone wants to talk smack about mac’s iphones or PS3’s email me at [email protected] 🙂 i like venting 🙂 so umm yea ( i will not censor my self if u add me to msn or send me an email and i reply back… im only doing this because i dont know the CoC on this site and i like my words to make it up) if i get junk mail ETC i will go to my ISP and ask that ur email account be blocked perma internet ports if i get another email and i know its u i will go to the police. saying im getting threats/stalky emails and trust me they can trace it back to you (IP blockers ARE A SCAM…. go to http://www.ipchicken.com write that IP down install ur IP blocker go back to that site 🙂 notice it doesn’t change…. notice that nice info at the bottom that gives them ur IP address account info…. ETC that would be how they track u. proxy’s do work but umm if i file a police report they can go to the owner off the proxy server ask for users on so and so date… track it back to you and ur a little messed. and for thoes of u that use the WiFi at starbuck’s u need a subscription there WHICH they keep track off ur activities…. so… dont use these ways to slip around or they will catch u. i know how the police and ISP’s work u think they dont see when u download that awesome new movie or game? wait for an email from abuse.yourisp.com

  44. oh one last thing YES microsoft did make a little bit of a mistake with vista they shoulda worked harder on it… let them go… if it wasn’t for both people bill gates and steve job’s we wouldn’t have this wonderful thing.
    they both deserve credit without them we wouldn’t have GPS. cell phones. GOOGLE!!! YOUTUBE!!! its just sad that they went diff ways if steve job’s and Bill gates worked together we would have a 99% working operating system…
    but its too late now…

    Oh and F*** YOU JACK THOMPSON LEAVE VIDEO GAMES ALONE!!!! asshole…

    i would just like to say about this part of ur msg “final cut pro (mac only) ” im sure there is a way to run this program or any mac program on a PC/Linux useing an emulator or othere such things and did u know apple is so money grubeing that u can be charged for installing a Legit copy of MAC OS on a PC computer u can be charged?
    also why would u use “final cut pro (mac only) “? is it because its probly like 300 dollars plus a yearly activation fee? XD (i dont know the exact price but i know mac programs usualy have a little more zero’z after the higher number… we all know this)

  46. Well, erm I’ve not read all these, but surely it’s MAC vs PC or Apple vs Windows vs Linux.

    Not MAC vs PC vs Linux – Linux RUNS ON A PC!!! How many people overlook this simple thing.
    PC is a hardware platform, not something that is comparable to Linux. Linux is an Operating System, but it’s like Jazz – there are so many different varieties.

    I have a PC, but I run Linux (Fedora 12 on desktop, or Mepis 8 on my Netbook (Samsung NC10).

    Mind you, PC stands for Personal Computer, so once you’re on a network, you don’t have a PC anymore, as it’s shared!
