and also, to get back to the real topic, this pic is pretty awesome, except there is always a story behind every image.

i dont know what neb is saying, all i know is that since i switched to the Apple, i dont know how to format Word documents on the Vista version of Word (or whichever version it is). i dont know also what neb is saying about problem with programs, coz even before the new OS, u can use Fusion and run windows. i dunno also what neb was saying about viruses, because the fact that there are not much viruses that invades a system makes it much dependable, such as a wear and tear type. i dunno dude, Apple for me is worth every cent that ive spent my money on it, and to most people who still has it seven years have passed.

You are silly. What you don’t have on this that the ORIGINAL poster had was the fact that the microsoft guy didn’t use this mac. Two people before him used that mac for the presentation, while the microsoft ceo just had a slide show not even using a computer.

you know i kind of agree with neb, mac os is much better than vista, bit its still not as good as xp.

plus apple computers are so taxed its ridiculous. You can buy the same hardware for a little more than half the price if it wasnt an apple. Check out psystar they are making computers that will run mac os now.

you can get a computer twice as fast for less

plus running vista on a mac is like putting monster-truck wheels on a Ferrari.

Neb, either you’ve never used a mac and just bitching cause its the trendy PC user thing to do, or you were far to incompetent to use it, which believe me is saying A LOT. Stop being the classic, ignorant douche, please.

…seriously, neb. Do you have any idea what you’re talking about. The mac interface is actually pretty sweet. Have you used OSX leopard edition? The ’spaces’ and ‘expose’ utilities are really great. Much much better than any Windows interface, and at least as visually pretty as Vista without the bugs. Additionally, it is pretty much a fact that macs process multimedia better than PC’s. Images just look cleaner.

Also, there are a wide variety of programs available for macs that cover a wide range of applications. It’s out of the box functionality for multimedia is well beyond what windows has to offer. The only thing lacking really is gaming. I don’t really game a whole lot, so this really doesn’t bother me.

Don’t get me wrong. I’ve been a windows user for quite some time, and i like it for the most part. But i’ve recently gotten a macbook and I’m really impressed.

The macbook pro was left by the last presenter. So it’s not his.

Sorry about that, the previous comment was addressed to the comment by Neb who obviously has little or no idea what he or she is talking about.

why does everyone host their images on flickr and photobucket?? can they not host their images on their own server?? I would say alot of schools/buisnesses block out flickr & photobucket. so all their images are also blocked out. Which leaves many many blogs and pages image less. You will program for 10 different browsers to make sure your site is viewable for everyone and then you go and host your photos on a site that offers alot content that is not suitable for work or school. hmmm I think mabye the web community should not proceed into this imageless abyss.

This looks shopped. I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time.

It’s shopped - look at the slide being presented:

“Innovation for future graduated”

don’t make sense.

Why you people like Macs, I still have no clue. They are horrible machines that are generally incompatible with more than basic programs. The interface is, also, quite shoddy. Why do you like them? Because the current “sub” culture says it’s cool? Would you like to know why there aren’t many viruses on Macs? Because they suck, and no one bothers writing viruses for them because they reign over such suckiness.

This is pretty funny, but *it iz photoshopped becuz i sez so, nub!!*

….

Everyone who cries “photoshop” should be slapped, then brainwashed into believing that their entire reality is a lie, and that they in fact were made by Photoshop.

And we will video tape their reaction and put it on youtube. And photoshop the video. And beat them. And put it on youtube.

I am done.

I don’t think its edited. Saw the original post earlier on Facebook and another user posted a similar shot taken from a different angle. Apparently there were two MacBook Pros in use.

Yes, it’s likely photoshopped. But still a hoot, no? Besides, PC Magazine reports that the best laptop to run Vista on is a Mac, so it’s not a long stretch of the imagination. I know people who buy a Mac to run Windows on (shudder).

Looks like its edited. The outer shell of that Macbook Pro is weird. And the podium where the Microsoft logo looks like it was just superimposed.
