I wonder how many Apple fanboys would be suprised to know that under the bonnet of their shiney new macbook is entirely pc hardware... Intel have been supplying processors to Apple now for a couple of years, so all your paying 2 - 3 time the price of a windows laptop is the operating system... apart from the case, all the rest of the hardware is PC stuff... makes you wonder doesn't it!!!

I'm going with pretty much none of them being surprised as this has been the case for over 6 years now, not 'a couple of years'.

Yet it has still taken the rest of the industry almost the same length of time to figure out how to make a portable PC that comes close to the design of the MacBook, so not much 'wondering' going on here :)

Snooze, old news, it's not the hardware but the implementation & design coupled with a decent eco system ; )

I'm loving the intensity of the debate... and particularly the way that certain comments appear to hit nerves!
I used to love Macs, but the moment they started using intel supplied equipment, was not convinced that they were worth paying the singificantly higher cost for. Yes they are still better packaged and until Windows 7 their operating system was far superior, but IMO not anymore... that said, my 2nd generation IPod Touch is superb and no one has produced an mp3 / games player that comes even close!!!

Re: Apple Fanboys Thread

Lol, for me they just work, working with pc & windows day in & out I find them a breath of fresh air, they fit their demographic well

Still dongle think m$ are there just yet with their os as the free iLife suite is a great start for most new to apple :D

As always each to their own but it annoys me the constant bashing on apple ;)

Does anyone know what it actually is other than the dreaded blue screen of death??

New stuff, this screen has been seen more times than the OS since we got it new a coupe of months back![/QUOTE]


It means a page of Kernel data can't be read from the pagefile into memory... usually caused by dodgy RAM or a failing HDD. Run chkdsk with 'fix' option checked and see if it finds anything, if not, try removing/swapping RAM modules.

I don't consider myself an apple fanboy, but in our family we have :

iphone 4
iphone 3GS
ipod touch 4th gen,
ipod shuffle
Apple TV
13 inch Macbook pro
ipad 3rd gen
Ipad 2nd gen

We do also have two quad core Win 7 Pc's and an old Win XP laptop. Damn that a lot when you look at it as a list!

Wow...certainly never been called uneducated before, especially since I was only making an observation and clearly stated that it was MY opinion!!! I had really enjoyed reading the debate until that unnecessary comment. Well I'll have to remember, that in future, my opinion is wrong!!! lol!!!
