I am NOT a Fanboy.

Its been brought to my attention by my esteemed *ahem* roommate that I might just be an Apple fanboy.  While it might be hard to argue that point seeing I'm on my second Apple laptop, have an iPhone, and have an Airport extreme plugged into my modem, I'm going to try.  

Here goes:

While I loved my first Apple laptop (iBookG4...RIP), I FUCKING HATE MY NEW MACBOOK PRO.  Let's begin when I took it out of the box.  I searched for 20 minutes for the remote and VGA adapter thingy before I realized that those are SOLD SEPARATELY.  Fuck Apple for nickle and diming my ass after I spend roughly a month and a half of salary on a computer.  

I try and move on, and I think to myself "That's fucked up, but surely the user experience will make up for it, right?"  That's when I was introduced to the new buttonless multitouch pad thing.  Using this thing is like trying to fuck with a limp dick.  Half the time I try to move the pointer I end up rotating some shit or enlarging text instead of closing a window because of the stupid multi touch "feature".  Apple knows about this problem, but their stance is "Fuck you, its a feature, we're not letting you turn it off".  The real kicker is if you DO get used to this bullshit, the trackpad has an issue where the pointer will randomly jump around the screen to fuck with you more.  Awesome.

Speaking of dicks, after about an hour of doing nothing but web surfing, the fucking thing would heat up so much I thought it would set my pubic hair on fire. Why would it get that hot?  Because Apple wouldn't let the fans go above 2000 RPM because they would make noise then.  DOn't know about you, but I'll take a quiet whirring noise over scorched junk 100 times out of 100.  Maybe I'M the weird one.

As with any good love story though, despite have a rocky start, me and my Macbook are working things out and learning to love each other.  I'll spend another post on how we settled our differences (i.e. what programs I installed to fix this broken motherfucker) sometime later this week.  And I do have to say, I frackin love my iPhone, and the Airport was pretty kickass too.  So maybe I AM a bit of a fanboy in the end, but lets compare my options:

Welcome to the Social indeed, Microsoft.
