Jesus Christ you are thick.

THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU SAID! REREAD WHAT I QUOTED! ALL YOU SAID WAS THAT SINCE THERE WAS ONLY ONE VERSION IT SHOULD BE COMPARED TO THE FULLY FEATURED WINDOWS VERSION!

It wasn't until I asked that you pointed out which version it is actually closest to! Your original point was that there was only one version, and I called that moronic logic.

AND I NEVER ONCE DISAGREED WITH YOU OVER WHICH ONE IT WAS CLOSEST TO, I JUST SAID YOUR LOGIC WAS MORONIC!

So I gather this is just your roundabout way of saying "yes, MeatForce, I am indeed just chapping your nuts"?

As far as I can tell, this all started because I used the imprecise phrase "XP Pro=mandatory because Apple doesn't make an 'OSX Home Edition'", and since you didn't really know what I meant by that, you assumed my only rationale for doing so was "jacking up the price of the dell." Right?

Well just because you didn't understand what I was saying the first time I said it, doesn't mean the logic is moronic, and saying so only presents you as a jerk. There is nothing wrong with the logic behind my assertion that a comparison between OSX and XP Pro is much more fair than a comparison between OSX and XP Home. It seems as though even you can see the sense in that once it's been more adequately explained.

What's moronic is saying shit like

Incidentally, there's no "OSX Pro Edition," so your logic would make XP Home = mandatory.

Because not only does that have nothing whatsoever to do with my logic, but you're simply ignoring the fact that feature-wise OSX is "OSX Pro Edition". It's a very advanced feature-rich OS that's at least the equal of the best Microsoft has to offer at the moment, which is something I thought was plain common knowledge. Since that offering is quite clearly NOT XP Home, I trusted folks would just be able to put 2+2 together and figure out that's what I was talking about..

My mistake. I'll try to be more clear in the future.

As for webcams, you're flat-out wrong about many people using them daily.

OK, so I'm wrong then. The fact that Google returns 156,000,000 hits for the word "webcam", but only 146,000,000 hits for the word "porn" clearly bears this out.

Do I give a rat's ass? Not a bit. It's irrelevant.

The presence of a webcam is still a bonus feature for the Mac, so why the hell wouldn't I have included it on a list of pros/cons?
