Arthur Posted August 29, 2011 Posted August 29, 2011 Shouldn't WALL-E be the Mac? He does make the same noise when booting up. http://www.tuaw.com/2008/06/27/wall-e-robot-with-the-heart-of-a-mac/
CESIL Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 I think DaveP needs to find a new PC supplier... ps I love the look of Apple hardware but am too much of a tightwad to buy it... pps In 1995 I worked at a computer roadshow and took along my work PC (PIII) running a pre-release version of Window 95 just to show off a bit. A woman came up to me and said "Oh Windows 95 or as we Apple users call it Apple 84". So I said "Yes you're right and if Apple had shared the OS with other hardware manufacturers then we would all be using it by now..." ...and I still believe that today!

I hadn't looked at it/considered it any deeper than this: The creator of the wallpaper is suggesting: A PC is old, tired and out of date. A Mac is shiny, new and ultra-modern.

So true I had to thank you, I always get the 'We need macs in music as there made for it.' They use GarageBand, thats like saying I need XP as it has Solataire on. Drives me mental!

john Posted August 30, 2011 Posted August 30, 2011 But Wall-e functioned fine for over 800 years (as PCs do go on forever and a day) but yet Eve was locked down remotely and has no end user replaceable parts thus Wall-E is the much better robot
6Foot2 Posted August 31, 2011 Author Posted August 31, 2011 (edited) Here is the XKCD.COM take on the PC vs. MAC debate: http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/mac_pc.png Edited August 31, 2011 by 6Foot2 Correct formatting. 1

Wall-e got squished and nearly died completely as Eve had to find replacement parts etc.
Arthur Posted August 31, 2011 Posted August 31, 2011 Eve has a laser plasma canon arm and didn't once die and I love the blue LED's / lights etc lol. ... and anti-gravity technology too.
mac_shinobi Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 ... and anti-gravity technology too. Plus one to that
SYNACK Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Plus one to that Indeed, just like a Mac, they have very little substance as well 1
mac_shinobi Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 (edited) Indeed, just like a Mac, they have very little substance as well It has all the substance I need It won't let me edit my original post to scratch out laser Edited September 1, 2011 by mac_shinobi

Wall-e got squished and nearly died completely as Eve had to find replacement parts etc. Notice how easy they were to obtain and included end user self fit and setup unlike Crapple ones.... and he survived being squished and attacked, Eve was going to be rebooted and would have exploded etc
