I knew this would happen eventually…
I’m a computer geek. I also have friends who are mac users. (Why they’re my friends, I’m not so sure, but be that as it may). Constantly barraging me with their propaganda as to why their OS is better than Windows, I usually have little reason or motivation to return their banter.
However, tonight provided a great opportunity to remind my “friends” why I’m a dedicated PC user. This evening, I got to attend a concert presented by the L.A. Philharmonic, and before the performance their was a pre-concert discussion by two music composers about the pieces we were about to hear. Part of the evening’s performance included a video segment, which these two composers wished to preview during the pre-concert talk. Unfortunately, they chose to do so on a mac. They received the color wheel of death, and moved right along, while a tech specialist fumbled with disc ejection, OS restarts, and system preferences, all in a vain effort to play a simple DVD. Yes, we all remember when Windows 98 crashed on Bill Gates during a live presentation, but it was finally nice once again to receive a little vindication :)

Is this the vindictive side of Kyle I have never seen before? Well, I’m glad to see that I’m the one with you crappy MAC for now. Given that I’ve heard the trash talking by MAC users, it’s nice to see that they’re just as likely to have their stuff break down on them!
Peace bud.
