Alright, im sorry but i have to rant on how retarded Mac is. My g/f has a mac book thing whatever, its trash. She helped me revise a paper i had to write for Terrorism because shes great at english. Any way, i sent her my paper, as an attachment of course, cuz PC's are amazing and there is no problems with simple daily activities. Any way she gets it, revises it and now she cant send it back, ive had several mac user try to send it back to me, but it wont attach, its like transparent not black like most of the other files, so it is not able to be clicked on. Then i said eff it and i tried to put it on a flash drive and transfer it over. Nope, for some reasons all that came up on the flash drive were PICTURES of the paper... nothing i could change, just a PICTURE... WHAT THE HELL, i thought macs "just work" there is NOTHING working about this trash can piece of shizzle. Shes really upset about it. As am i. I have to email my teacher this paper, and i cant email it form her computer because it wont attach, and so i guess i have to copy paste it into facebook or w/e and just re-space it out and such.... Macs are TRASH. Ya it came with a free printer and ipod but that is not worth the constant hassle.

PC is where it's at buddy, people that don't understand computers like MAC because it's supposedly "user friendly" and pretty and fun to play with.

At the end of the day, anybody that knows anything about computers, knows that PC is the standard.

Sounds like user error to me. Just like a PC you can decide what file format you want to save a document in. Anyone who thinks there is a big difference in the effectiveness between Apple and PC is ignorant at best.

Yeah, unless you changed the default save as format, then apparently you would have the exact same problem. Laughing

I guess you expected the mac to read your mind? Was it suppose to *know* what format you needed?

Reading this thread reminded me of some middle aged man pounding on his keyboard, because he couldn't get the stupid machine to start, even though the monitor just hadn't been turned on yet.

DRAGON88, I didnt know that when i sent over my paper, in one format, the mac would take the liberty to change the format.... retarded. And macs whole slogan "it just works" is NOT true, because it didnt just work, and like i mentioned b4, my computer woulda never had this problem.

Did you make this post from your macbook wheel?

This sounds like user error, not an MS f*ck up.
