Is that an Inspiron 6400? I have an Inspiron 1000...totally state of the art. And my sister gave me a skin for it, this awesome alien one. It doesn't fit though. Doesn't matter, I have to replace the entire top half of my computer anyway. Ty stepped on it and cracked it a few months ago, and I was fine with it...'til the whole stupid thing crashed, so I've been using a Mac ever since. *groan*

OH LOOKIE I'M NOT DOUBLE POSTING! There's your present. xD ...now I forgot what I was gonna say.

Yep, it's a 6400, replaced the screen TWICE due to dead pixels. Keyboard's been replaced too.

And I've upgraded the RAM to 2 gig Very Happy

OOH! Fancy.

SCREW MACS! I've been using this stupid thing for two or three months now, and I HATE IT!

Tyler just won't cough up the $300 he owes me. He says it's my fault I put the computer underneath his fat ass.

Macs are inherently flawed in their design for one reason: Their mouse has ONE button.

I know you can get two-button mice now, but it was originally designed with one, and therefore destined to fail.

One mouse button . . . that is quite proposterous. Shocked Nothing should ever happen like that. One mouse button? *spits*

It's insane.

Any other tragedies?

Well...the windows never take up the entire screen. Unless you force it to, and the dock (mac equivilant of a start bar) is unhidable. I mean, when you open a window, it CAN take up the whole screen, but it can't cover up the dock. You can make it smaller or bigger and move it to the left and right, but...eh. The buttons are ugly, too. I mean, the PREVIEW SUBMIT buttons aren't square and don't go with the theme of 'GOTF'...xD...they're oval-y and white and shaded and such. UGLY!

The nice things about macs are that it takes about three seconds to hook up to wireless interenet (whereas on a dell you need to type in a code and such) the volume and screen brightness can be changed easier, there's a built in mic and it doesn't take as long to load.

Well, I've got the "objectdock" at the bottom of my screen and start menu at the top, giving it a sort of mac-esque feel, but this one DOES hide Razz

We had a mouse with one button once... that wasn't so bad... It was still curved... so you just had to push on either side of the middle and it worked... That was for a normal computer...
