Either the people with them are super happy with them or it's buyers remorse.

Judging by the amount >lol u too poor for mac I'd probably go with buyers remorse.

People who eat shit from their hands have a lot more free time since they don't have to worry about cooking, grocery shopping, or using the bathroom.
>>
>>51959799
Those polls vary greatly. Very often you'll see them with 50% windows, 25% Linux, 20% os x and 5% "other".

A better question would be "Why is the Linux community so vocal and poisonous here?"
>>
>>51959838
anonymity

>>51959799
Vocal minority and probably a small targeted shilling campaign.

Just stop replying to them all the time, dumbshit.

You're assuming these threads are started by actual mac users and not just shitposting freetards, which is far more likely

>>51959799
LOL that graph went from 78% Windows to 40%.
Totally not some sad neckbeard botting that shit you guise...

GNU/Linux user here. I regularly shill for Mac OS X because it's better than its reputation and because Windows users are so easily anally inflammated.
>>
Because people like this >>51959850 are so buttmad that they start threads pretending to be Apple stills so they can perpetuate their memes.

Explain the GNU/Linux threads every day.
Explain the Windows threads every day.

You just consider Mac/OSX to be the odd one out so you notice it more often, the reality is they're not being posted in any disproportionate frequency.

Why do you expect people to know about this when the wrong acronym is used 95% of the time except on hardware?

The author of Speccy could know

>>51960729
This is part of the answer.

I just Applepost to meme you up, and it's working damn well.

>>51960834
G is correct for Giga according to SI, why Gi? Another extra letter for no reason.
Is that some American nonsense? (in which case it is wrong, Giga is a SI term and therefore part of the "metric" standards) or is it some CS snowflake thing?
>>
>>51961048
GIGAbytes (G) and GIBIbytes (Gi) are different.

>All anime threads are made by congenital pedophiles who post loli when other desktop threads are made because they don't want to lose their main hobby and, say, have to find a job or to make studies

Nah, the other poll with more options showed similar results.

It's probably because of Windows 10 botnet.

The worst combo here is the linux neckbeard vim-adoring freetards.

freetards use GNUshit like emacs though

Have been using rmpb for engineering for 2 years now. It's great. Some of my peers have switched to osx after seeing how comfortable it is. I have windows in a virtual machine though

because it's some few faggots who got a macbook pro with retina display 19 inches as a gift from their moms/gfs/grandmas/etc and since they are NEETs and don't have a job to buy something else, they are stuck with it. Now they are trying to convince themselves that they are acturally acceptable to use

linux is still shit tho

why?

literally any PC of any importance in the world uses it
How is it in any way shit? Just because you can't use it, doesn't make it shit

>>51962309
why has this become about me?
Literally ad hominem

>try harder
>>
>>51962327
since not all users need to be relevant and/or have an important PC, and linux is all but a user friendly OS. You probably don't even need to use it but you want to be special, as most of your folks
>>
>>51962327
That doesn't answer his question.
