Why did Apple have to run those stupid ads?

After a long process of watching videos and the suggested threads I stumbled onto our favorite friend... The idiot computer user. I recommend you watch the whole video but it goes down hill after 4:55.

How is your post related to your title? Really just don't understand, no hate intended

For the video: I saw it as well and even though I don't mind people buying Apples products I saw several flaws in his video the first time watching. But tbh anyone who buys a Mac won't care for his video or will buy it because of this video. People who hate macs won't biz a Mac because of this video. It's sole purpose is to piss off apple haters and according to the responses I saw forwards this video it seems to be working perfectly

It relates at the point where he mentions that Macs don't get viruses. And I'm not an Apple hater. I hate when people give out false information.

[tpoar]

"Macs dont get viruses" you heard it hear folks

 

Macs have more features hmmm i didnt realise this while playing every single game on steam

I just couldn't resist, replied to that video:

 

You must be really stupid...
1. A lot of Laptops come already with office preinstalled on them
2. I haven't seen anyone who has actually bought windows upgrades...
3. Use free antivirus software as Microsoft security essentials and they work fine
4. You don't need an antivirus if you know how to use PC correctly...(Don't download any junk from unknown sources...)

 

I don't have any hate on Apple products, just on him because he says that mac is the best computer you can buy...

Yeah it was the ones with Justin Long and a guy who I don't remember during the mid to late 2000's.

On an unrelated note: I don't know if you follow the Olympics but kudos to your Men's hockey team for holding off Canada for that long. I was amazed.

I know, I don't follow hockey that much(prefer other winter sports) but yeah... I guess Linus might talk about this tomorrow

[Ertman]

Ya, this thread title misleading.

I get what you mean in the title, the answer is to sell computers. Pretty much like every other company.

[qwertywarrior]

there is just soo much fail here i cant even ......

[Ertman]

John Hodgman

Thank you. Hopefully I can remember that now (I won't).

[Hoppa]

The mac costs an extra $2000 for the gun you have to shoot it with.

Seriously this guys logic is beyond stupid.

In their defence, there were so few viruses at the time for macs, that getting one was extremely unlikely. Of course that has changed.

[KamiKatze]

Woooooow. i haven't seen this video before. What a shame! That's halarious! I really don't know what to say other than: i smell fanboy!

 

I don't even want to start on how stupid he thinks windows users are, but I'd just say that in thze last 3 years i payed a total of 40€ for software for my laptop and PC, which was antivirus software. I got windows from my university. I got full Office from my university. And that's just an example how to avoid 140 stupid fucking dollars for word. You could also get it from...... other sources  which you pretty much can't with a MAC.

[Whiskers]

How many viruses has the Mac had at this point? And how many hundreds of thousands of viruses has Windows had at this point?

 

It's still a valid point. Dismissing it because Mac happens to have a few viruses now is utterly silly, because it will never be as bad as Windows was in the past and still isn't as bad as Windows is now. Just sayin'...

1. you can get free word processing software with the general functionality of word (libre/openoffice) And, surprise surprise, it's compatible with word!

it's painful how he keep saying that "most people" only use word to type stuff up, yet says that pages is more professional. if you're so professional then you'd know what specialist software you'd need and wouldn't be "most people ":P

[GeTecknics]

most people arent gonna pay 350 to fix fix a 400 laptop wtf 

to put it in his terms "when you adddd tttthatttt to the price of the computer you will see that" you are making irrelevant costs that most people arent stupid enough to pay for

[tobben]

this guy doesn't know what open office is does he? or avg, or any program ever.. he is just throwing a bunch of "what if" out there in favor of the mac, ahaha, i just finished the last part, ahh this is amazing , "i got a virus even if i have antivirus! and payed 350$ to fix it!" sooo what exactly, his argument is that pc is more expensive because he got ripped off because he is gullible and doesn't know how to use a computer?.

 

who even keeps a 400$ laptop for 5+ years, he doesn't even seem to be capable of realising the the insides of the 1200$ mac and 400$ laptop are indeed very different.
