Out of the blue, Apple topples Micro$oft in Japan with more market share!

Hi,

I hate to say this but the reason the Asians are using the
new MACS with Leopard are because they have the money to
purchase the Apple systems. After all they did take over
nearly 75% of the American workforce.

In order for Apple to be successful in America they will
have to lower their price for the new systems. Looked at
one the other day and decided to stay with PC running
Ubuntu Linux and Windows XP for games.

Still use my Amiga, but lately I have been letting it rest
and been using Amikit on my Gateway PC.

Apple right now with Leopard can take the computer market
if they lowered the price of their system in order to
compete with Vista systems, because Leopard is great, and
VISTA SUCCS. Would have bought an Apple system but price
was too high at $2100.oo to $2495.oo, had to settle for a
Ultra case, nvidia 680i motherboard, Q6600 processor and
2 Gigs mem, sold at TigerDirect for $850.oo. so much for
being a hard working American, can't afford anything I
would really like since I became married and bought a house.

HI,

@mongo,

Vista runs quite nicely on my PC that consists of a
 $30 motherboard,
 a $7 CPU,
 a $12 heat sink and fan,
 $40 worth of ram,
 an $87 hard drive,
 a $22 case,
 a $15 power supply,
 a $34 DVD burner, a $25 CD burner,
 a $15 sound card,
 a $40 video card,
 and a $10 monitor.

I also have a $7 keyboard and a $12 mouse.


You have  either been shopping at the black market in
 San Francisco, or BS'n big time. Please give me the
numbers and where you bought stuff that cheap in order to
run Vista. I am running a $599 Gateway special, with an
e6300 chip, and I am real curious to find out what $7.00
CPU you have that will run Vista. By the way I just
upgraded to a Q6600 system because I was not satisfied with
the speed of the E6300 chip. And of course you know that
the E6300 is a 1.86 GigHz dual core, and the Q6600 is a
2.4 gighz quad core. Yes I am an extreme gamer, thats
why I bought my Amiga's and thats why today I look at the
newest hottest stuff out there that I could afford, and
most of the time I catch this stuff on sale.

By the way where you live, Phillipines, Tiwan, Korea, or
US (San Fran) because thats the only places I think where
you could get equipment that cheap.

By the way whats your speed index?

Causing hate and discontent is one of my passions.

Hi,

@little,

Ok so you are a little anal (get the pun),
anyhow just wanted to let you know you can go to

www.tigerdirect.com

and find a whole bunch of cases without power supplies. My
only concern about what mango said was a $7 CPU. They don't
make em that cheap, he had to buy it through the black
market on the streets for that price.

Hi,

@ koaftder

Very True about the extreme gamer, I play such games as Far Cry, Doom 3, Fear, Bioshock, and soon to be as soon as it comes out Crysis. Why do you think I upgraded, some of my games are playing sort of slow. I went from a Core Duo E6300 when it first came out to now a Q6600, wish I had the money for the new quad core but 1100 is beyond my price.

By the way I have a Dell with a P4 Pentium running at 2.6ghz, good enough for my Linspire box.

By the way just received the Ultra Q6600 in the mail the other day and am building it up. The Gateway GT5238E was a
pretty good computer, ran nice but was running out of horse power, if you know what I mean. Oh by extreme gamer I mean playing the newest and best on the market. Not Rolling Thunder on an Amiga. Has anyone ever beat that game, the furthest I could get was level 7. Well have fun with your P4, I am sure the original Doom and the original Quake will play fine on it, if not put it in your 603e A1200 Amiga (if you have one).

Don't play any games on the internet, just don't believe in it.

have a nice day
