The Virtues of Macintosh

I honestly like Macintosh more than I like Windows.
There are numerous advantages to the system. First of
all, the entire system is simply more aesthetically
pleasing. Now, I know that there are those chromed
out computers that Sony, Dell, etc. put out, which are
infinitely more attractive than the ugly, plain, off-white
monitors that resemble kitchen utensils you'd use to
cut vegetables rather than cutting-edge
technology--however, they are simply not as attractive
as Macintoshes. The Apple iMacs are positively
adorable. I love the monitors--the colors pop out at you
like manufactured happiness. How can one be upset
working on an iMac? Everything about then, down to
the simple, cheapishly made keyboards, is lovely.
Jobs is a genius. An absolute genius.

Another thing that is advantageous to the entire Mac
system is the structure of organization. Instead of a gazillion
icons that serve only to clutter space and confuse the PC user,
the Macintosh system separates icons into categories. There is
the Harddrive icon, which includes subcategories in it. There is
the Launcher icon. There is the little trash can that sits
sullenly in the bottom right hand corner, which, if filled,
has cute little trash sticking out of the top of it, and the
lid sitting to the right, by the ground. It's so cute. And
what about the awesome links at the top? File, Edit,
View, Go, Favorites, Tools, Window, then a cute little
icon of a printer, and finally, Help. Then, the time,
which is right now 2:24 PM. Then, if you have AOL
instant messenger, the little icon of a yellow man
running (this is a cute icon too). I'm not going to get
really specific (as if I haven't already), but I'm telling
you...Macintosh is better. Don't whore yourself to
monopoly--buy a Mac!! You can't be unhappy when
there are so many pretty colors!

The final thing I'd like to say about Macintosh is that it is
technologically ghetto. The icons, albeit cute, are not
exactly stunningly cinematic. This I love. How cool is it
to have a computer that looks as if it walked out of a
1960s space video (a woman in a silver body suit
would use an iMac) that types and reads like a ghetto,
cheaply made version of graphing calculater Tetris?
(TI-83, my friends). I'm sorry, but this computer is just
too cool...buy an iMac! Endorse ghetto! I love graphing
calculator games--you can play these on an iMac, and they look
authentically graphing calculator-ish too!!

AHHHHHH!
