what bizarro world are you living in?

OS 9, while leagues ahead of anything Microsoft has ever made, was not very good. It wasn't until OS X when Apple started using BSD code that they had a usable OS. But still, you should just use GNU/Linux. It supports user freedom.

GNU/Linux > BSD > Mac OS > shit > dog shit > Windows

Umm go outside? Go to the library, go to any coffee shop with wifi. Nobody uses windows anything anymore.

Probably because the latest update broke their system and deleted all of their files. There's no reason to use proprietary software in 2018.

It's plug and play. Macs, still today, are PCs for dummies

Jobs was an expert marketer, one of the best ever to have lived.

Jews

Do you have an idea how BIG monitors used to be? These were the smartphones among all the nokias

At least Mac OS is POSIX compliant, that makes it usable to anyone who knows what they're doing. I don't know why they don't just move Mac OS to the GPL.

Piece of shit, but it's the first computer I ever took apart :')

Pretend innovation was better than no innovation. They were competing against boring beige boxes. A liittle effort went a long way.

i used to have one of those. it was pretty cool

Apple has a lot of movie influence and Apple pioneered the electronic fashion accessory.

I still have one. I play dvds for my white children on it.

Yeah but instead of keeping the tradition, pcs are just as retarded as macs because people were too stupid to use their computers and it intimidated them.

Has anyone noticed that when computers were harder for stupid people to use, there were less shitposts in the world?

Literally only enthusiast programmers and Autists ever use Lynux

Linux is the most popular kernel in the world.

fuck off with your meme OS faggotry. Most people use computers to browse the web, communicate or to do work that doesn't involve terminal commands

PC looked like elderly house sanitary equipment at that time. They were more relatable to the general public.

Calm down, Pajeet. Just because no one wants to use malware like Windows anymore doesn't mean you should be so hostile.

>Has anyone noticed that when computers were harder for stupid people to use, there were less shitposts in the world?
That was also before you could shitpost with your phone.

What? Surely you mean Unix

Apple got major sales in the early 2000s but they have basically shunned their PC division in favor of handhelds since the iphone was released. Windows rarely makes PCs.. just the OS which continues to be massively popular

Because colors. Literally the look and not the function is what made them popular.

Norms are so goddamn stupid.

He’s probably near a uni or college they target those places to sell apple shit.

They are the perfect machines for the daily use of an NPC

No. I don't. I mean Linux.

I have only seen this computer once in my life in the early 2000's in the staff area of a college. Very few students were allowed access.

Now if we were talking about apple ii/e's it would be a different story. I have seen way too many of them. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a landfill just devoted to them.

They aren't that bad, actually. I used to run Debian on one.

>great marketing
it's all you need

you are a deluded faggot

"According to California analytics vendor Net Applications, Windows 10 retreated by four-tenths of a percentage point in September, putting its user share at 37.4% of all personal computers and 42.8% of those running Windows. (The second number is always larger than the first because Windows never powers all personal computers; in September, Windows ran 87.6% of the world's systems. The remainder ran macOS, Linux or ChromeOS.)"

Only morons use Windows. It is the OS of choice for pajeets, gamers, and boomers. Its only purpose, as far as the Microsoft kikes see, is to collect data on the users, or useds as I say.
Why anyone would ever use a proprietary operating system is beyond me. Imagine having that much faith in the company that made it.

As far as computers and laptops go apple is pretty small player. There are concentrations of their users in some places, but that's not common.

I can happily say I never bought a single apple product in my entire life, be it pc or phone. It's the ultimate normie meme

People are attracted to colours, most everything else was offwhite nicotine stain coloured at the time. It was also the first all in one that didn't suck, the OS is idiot proof and they marketed it extremely well. It was in every movie in the late 90s, just sitting there with its flashy colours. Apple's marketing turned computers from tools to entertainment products that were also lifestyle and fashion statements.

Never seen these IRL, i guess they weren't all that popular here in poorfag nation. I've used a g5 though and they were great computers.

Whoa I had no idea. I only know two people who run Linux, one is professional computer nerd and the other is autistic.

Did you know that Google's spyware mobile platform, Android, uses the Linux kernel?

What a fucking faggot you are.

Are they counting tablets as personal computers?

This shit computer came out around the time Apple was thought doomed to fail. This garbage was so bad that apple had to abandon the personal computer in favor of handheld trinkets, for which the stars aligned to save them.

I think apple users are great - it's a healthy community. I'm not an apple hater and have a couple hackintosh installs and just got an old mac pro , I just hate open source shills - some of us have no desire to program anything, and we like products that have non autistic workflows and non-tyrannical tech support

Oh shit I completely forgot to account for phone operating systems

I miss the trend where you had see through plastic electronics.

1. Microsoft wasn’t decades ahead of anyone. Windows XP was much better than 9x, but was far from the strides they hit with 7 (which they ganked a lot of features from macOS 10.6 for)
2. Surprise, people like pretty things. It’s a major reason the iPhone generated a lot of buzz and interest when it came out vs Blackberries and what atrocities the Windows CE phones were.

People buy things for various reasons. What you might want/need in a product might not line up with the masses. A good parallel to this would be bringing up the Toyota Prius or a Tesla Model S in a performance car forum. You’d hear the same kind of whining as in this post.

I also despise open source. They miss the point of free software.

I'm a 40 year old Zoomer so eat my dust as I surf the web on a win 10 netbook

They weren't that successful, but they helped dig Apple out of the ditch they had fallen into. They looked completely different from everything else at the time, which was white/yellowish plastic, so they stood out in a somewhat positive way. Unsurprisingly it was the more stylish look they made after this that really became popular.

Why are you so proud of being a bluepilled stooge? Windows useds are foolish and will pay for their disregard for their own freedom and privacy.

He thought communism should be free. Let us all laugh, comrades.

The state of American English.

Wtf
Apple doesnt even want you to repair your own machine. There is nothing good about their tech support whatsoever.

Mac mini was the best Mac.

But Intel NUC blows it out of the water now.

I honestly would not mind using an Apple PC and macOS if their hardware was not so outdated and still triple the cost of other PC’s. And I do not feel dealing with a Hackintosh.

Although I do not trust any of the three major OS’s now. I am just waiting until China or Russia releases a usable OS so I can switch. I do not care if either of them spy on me.

>Library
>Coffee shop
The hang outs of the pretentious mac user. Only hipsters and Stacey's use macs because they are consumerist sheep who are easily manipulated by quirky ad campaigns
>Remember "think differently"

>Apple doesnt even want you to repair your own machine.
But it's very easy to repair Apple machines. I repair them all the time. They're so much easier now than they used to be.

>Windows users are foolish and will pay for their disregard with their own freedom and privacy.
ftfy

I don't think there's much concern about user data from apple or microsoft but I could be wrong. I am such a horrible consumer as it is in terms of spending behavior that they probably ignore me out of spite. Google on the other hand worries me

No, they are used by Microsoft.
Why don't you just use free software rather than trying to persuade yourself that being used by Microsoft and Apple is a good thing? Why let the Jews control you?

I remember when my elementary school probably spent tens of thousands of dollars on these things.

This crap is still going on, schools wasting millions of useless craplel thinking that it's going to magically change education. lmao.

BIZARRO I LOVE YOU

>this is what appletards believe

check his flag, you know the answer.

They were shit but there was Bugdom. If you didn't play Bugdom you aren't allowed into the ethnostate.

Public institutions should not be allowed to use proprietary software. It is basically child abuse.

Of course I do. I stuck with my Compaq black box. I liked the position of the floppy drive being next to me for easy loading when it took 98 floppy's to load a calculator program.

Sorry snookums, that would be a pentium 3 with Voodoo graphics card.

I wish we had killed off x86 when we still had the chance. Awful shit.

>I think apple users are great

No. So much no.
They are the most obnoxious users ever.
"OMG you still use windows? I quit using it because I had lot of issues doing things. Mac are the best ahahah."

NO YOU STUPID MONGOLOID, YOU ARE JUST A TOTAL IMBECILE WHO CAN'T DO SHIT AND HAS NO HUMILITY TO ADMIT IT. YOU CAN LITERALLY FIND DOZENS OF GUIDES TO SOLVE MOST WINDOWS PROBLEMS ON THE WEB, BUT NO, YOU ARE SO RETARDED YOU CANNOT FIND THEM AND BUY A 2000€ PIECE OF CRAP HARDWARE. REEEEEEEE

Steve Jobs realised something very important, namely, that yuppies, hipsters and other libtards are retarded and don't know anything about computers and, for that reason, base their purchasing decisions on criteria such as: (i) which computer has the best looking case; and (ii) what computer has the coolest logo on the side, &c. That is the secret to Apple Inc.'s success.

Please tell me you don't use Windows. It really is the worst operating system imaginable. How can you be on Jow Forums, knowing full well that you should not trust the Jews, but still using Windows?

>school dumps thousands into new computers
>puts 5 in every classroom
>they rarely (if ever) get used because class sizes are 25-30 students

Every time.

What's wrong with x86? Apart from the complicated assembly of course.

Mutts should not adopt white children.

>how did they end up overshadowing microsoft
Implying microsoft didn't want them to do well, i.e. maybe microsoft reduced production or marketing and gave them the edge needed to flourish.
>1997 microsoft saved apple by granting them $150 million to fuel competition in their industry

From a totally theoretical standpoint, it is a closed architecture that can only be produced by those in agreements with its creator, Intel. But practically, it is full of vulnerabilities.

Not everyone has a need to type 500 commands in a terminal to print a document. I use Linux and Windows, but there is no doubt that windows is more convenient for the average person.

>only high IQs use linux
>no one you know uses Linux

I have some bad news fren

>overshadowing microsoft
Mocroshit had 90%+ of Personal Computer market share. The Apple meme took off after the iPod/iPhone era.

It really isn't. And learning a couple of commands won't kill you. All the average person needs to know is how to install software, de-install software, upgrade their system, and activate their firewall.
Windows is not convenient, since it spys on you and sells your data. That isn't convenient to me.

it's lizzie mcguire's fault

>500 commands
Shit like apt make linux very noob friendly

chillax it's not 2006 anymore ok - both camps have civility online.. I can't speak for all the graphics designers that you may encounter in ur life
Ouch
Ok fine I'll admit it - I'm not worthy of using Temple OS

>he fell for the (((kitchenaid))) meme

Breh...

Because I came to Jow Forums knowing I'm not going to convert into a computer science nerd turbo incel autist.
Do you know how much easier it is to change my background to a synagogue in New York? It's like 3 clicks and I didn't have to type sudo once because I am always a superuser, faggot.
