fuck this. Im at work, some clients come in to check out their house plans, and to see the renderings i did. I get to talking with the couple, and of course, computers come up. I ask what os they are using, so i know what formats to give them, blah blah blah. And their fucking response is, we use windows, were in 'business'. WTF!!! so i go on to explain how much more advanced and stable osX is, and just how unix owns. They stare at me blankly. They respond, that because im into graphics, of course i use a mac. Real business use windows. I almost jumped up and strangled the both of them! stupid people. Just because bill gates says so doesnt mean you should follow. Goddamn i hate people. Im very fired up right now. i think im taking the rest of the day off.

did they happen to mention how many times they reinstalled? real businesses find it necessary to reinstall every 2 weeks.


dont worry about it, they aren't worth it.

yahuh... That's why real BIG buissness runs UNIX/Linux, and many buissnesse's run Mac's.

Apple has a site burried somewhere that lists tons of companies that use Mac's as their main platform.

in business, my response would have been

"business!?!?!?! the only time i hear about microsoft in business, is when anohter business is suing them for THEFT, and for that matter, you think anything really really really critical runs on windows? NO, anything run by a sane admin runs UNIX, .net? have fun somebody hacks it. i hope it doesn't turn out like that one commercial with the little asian girl with the laptop cracking the autoplant....... now, what format do you want your files in?"/*at which point we would have just lost a costumer*/
