The unEDUCATED DC Boards Lounge

[Charlie Boy]

Well that's just madness. If someone should happen to be visiting while I'm watching tv I simply watch something else on my dvr... Then the main event. I can't co back to commercials. I cant

 

[Mystirious]

I do that with the movie trailer commercials. F*** yes, I'll take a commercial-free episode if I watch this 2-minute trailer first... and then I'll mute the 2-minute trailer and do something else.

That is neat

I watching movie trailers so those are the only commercials I do not mute

Hulu shows some really terrible movie trailers. Right now they're plastering stuff for The Virginity Hit, which looks like one of the most godawful movies ever conceived, everywhere.

My cousin is trying to persuade me into watching that movie.


I'm scare.

your cousin is soft in the head.....slap him

The Virginity Hit

What is that about

From wikipedia:

The film itself is a mockumentary on a teen's countless attempts to lose his virginity. Most of the cast used their own names for their characters, as well as strong improvisation to give the film a convincing feel.

your cousin is soft in the head.....slap him

Definitely should

Translation: Young, aspiring actor/comedians (both terms used loosely) act like complete jackasses on film for a couple hours, edit it on their MacBook, and call it a movie.

 

[lixdexia]

i iwsh i had a macbook...finalcut is the ****. tired of vegas

 

[TheCorpulent1]

MacBooks are expensive. I'm on the market for my very first laptop right now, but I'm not really looking at computers that start around $1000.

 

[Mystirious]

From wikipedia:

If this film had a face I would punch it

 

[BlackLantern]

got my new laptop for $550...Toshiba...so worth it....no bloatware, Windows 7

 

[Tron Bonne]

Yeah, Macbooks are brain-numbingly expensive. I mean, getting less viruses and such is good, but not $1000+ more than a good PC good.

 

[BlackLantern]

if Im paying $1000 for a laptop....damn thing better play with my $%^& when Im using it

 

[lixdexia]

yeah...the price is an issue. i'm thinking about running a mac os on my pc, but i probably don't care enough to go through that much trouble

 

[Tron Bonne]

I was looking for that pic when the game first came out but could never find it.

if Im paying $1000 for a laptop....damn thing better play with my $%^& when Im using it

Well, that probably would not be a good thing. It just boggles me that people will pay that much for pretty much nothing but a brand name.

A great way to not get viruses on a PC is to not be dumb. The virus issue is blown way, way out of proportion. I've had nothing but PCs my entire life and, ever since I stopped sharing computers with my mother, I've never had a virus at home, where I get to control everything. I've gotten a couple at work, but that was because they refuse to put in adequate adblockers on their browser (which is IE, so it pains me every time I go on the internet there).

 

[BlackLantern]

the people that get viruses are the morons who do all those surveys, sign up for sweepstakes, give their email address to everyone and their mother

Good idea in theory, but in practice, people are dumb

Did a Google image search with safe search turned on it was on the sixth or seventh page

Kim Pine makes a thread more

Pretty neat

In fairness, you are getting some pretty great hardware and software for that $1,000. It's not like Apple is unfairly cheating you out of gobs of money and giving you a sub-par product in return. They're giving you something that's arguably worth $1,000. But given that I already have a pretty good desktop and I mainly plan on using my laptop for schoolwork and a bit of web browsing, a MacBook would be so overbuilt for my needs it's not even funny.

Right now I've got my eye on a $550 Gateway. 17" screen, Intel Core i3 processor, 4 Gbs of DDR3 RAM, a 500 Gb hard drive, built in webcam, mic, and media reader, and Windows 7 64-bit--Home Premium, granted, but what are you gonna do? It should still work okay. I imagine it'll have some bloatware, but I can easily format that s*** out and maybe upgrade it to my copy of Windows 7 Ultimate. Of course, this laptop is also overbuilt for my needs, but a little extra power never hurts and it's only half the price of a MacBook, so I'm cool with that.

Well, yeah, I'm not saying that MacBooks are crap or anything. They are solid machines, and they have some great software from what I hear, but I just can't imagine that being worth $1000-2500 (which I think is roughly the range of their laptops).

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, it's basically $1,000 for the MacBook and between $1,200 and $2,300 for the MacBook Pro.
