We get it Apple trolls. You went and wasted all your allowance on that over priced toy so now you feel you have to use it to post on every single Windows related thread to make sure you get your moneys worth. Who cares. Enjoy your Mac.

I am typing on $150 machine I bought at yard sale with Ubuntu slapped on it that does exactly the same thing you are doing right now. And don't bother telling me all the wonderful things your wonderful little Apple toy can do. If you actually did any of the things your little Apple toy could do you wouldn't be trolling Windows articles, you be off with your Apple toy doing them.

That tells me we both use our computers for the same thing. Surfing the internet, playing our music, watching movies, wordprocessing, playing games, downloading torrents and basic computer use. I saved myself $950. Now go troll another Window article. While I go download some more FREEWARE that will not run on your TOY.

Ok, first this ad makes you want to P.U.A.L. (Puke Up A Lung). Second is Dean Cain that hard up for money? Couldn't he just sell his Superman shorts or something? W.T.F.
