But um yeah, would be fun to play a game or two with you all. I'm not really a hardcore game, so expect that I will suck at whatever it is. and that I probably don't own it unless I bought it during highschool.

Or something like that![]()
The machine is a mid-2010 MacMini that was (and is) used as a server, no real considerations for gaming or anything like that. But hey, 8gb RAM, and while the graphics card is the shitty integrated laptop type, it's still a vast improvement over my last two computers! (the third most recent comptuter I've owned was better, but I made the mistake of buying a cheap power supply and of course that led to a failure which fried all of my ram and both of my hard drives! DON'T BUY THE CHEAPEST POWER SUPPLY)
Right now I have an agreement where I get to use the computer but a bunch of guys run a wiki server on it. This way, I managed to get the hardware for a price that was less than stratospheric.

linux is pretty shit. most games don't support linux, and I've never had software trouble. after getting used to it, it feels more comfortable than any PC OS has. if you're going the microsoft route, for the past 10 years you've been wallowing in some of the shittiest OS systems known to man, like vista and OS 8. I don't want to turn this into a MAC VS PC war thread, but it's the truth.Keldoclock wrote:samuelzz10 wrote:no, they're for people who likeusing top notchoverpaying for and having silly restrictions on hardware.
I am ambivalent towards Macs. I don't like many of Apple's practices, but the computers themselves are fine as long as you don't buy them from the Apple Store, they charge double or triple what the stuff is really worth. As a working computer they are just fine, OSX is a little bit difficult to use for some things (IE it has limits so Granny doesn't delete her own operating system) but you can always just use the Unix that is at the core of it to do stuff. It is a good way for someone used to ordinary operating systems to transition to using Linux.

So you're praising your monitor, ram and graphics card? PCs have those too ya know. Except as separate, removable, and (most of all) up-gradable parts.
For someone who doesn't want to start a Mac vs. PC war, you sure are talking a lot of shit.

When I first saw it, I was very confused, because there was just a monitor. Then I realized that the geniuses at Apple made a giant iPad and called it a desktop computer.
