And your point is what? The Mac Book pro is a standard Intel Core 2 Duo
machine. MS don't make machines. Apple do. Or didn't you know Apple
moved from Motorola some time back? Duh.

the point is...

Apple is now producing the best Windows hardware you can buy.

Apple engineers its systems, so it shows "standard" PC vendors can no
longer keep pace with Apple's hardware talent.

Nobody is even close to building something like this, the most Universal
machine on earth...

No doubt it is fast. However they didn't test the latest and greatest
from everybody. Even the Alienware they tested had only 2gb of RAM and
a slower processor. Dell makes a XPS notebook with a T7900 processor,
capable of clocking to 3.4Ghz, dedicated physics processor, Nvidia SLI
video.

http://www.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/xpsnb_m1730?c=us&l=en&s=dhs&cs=19

no doubt faster than a MBP, just not included in their test. Hell I
can go test a handfull of Japanese imports and claim one is the
fastest car I ever tested, that doesn't make it the fastest car in the
world.

Yes, I wondered the same thing. It's probably not a case of escaping the
filters though (same name, different format).

Did you read the groups list, dim-bulb?

"comp.sys.mac.advocacy,alt.os.windows-xp,comp.os.linux.advocacy,microsoft.public.windows.vista.general"

I guess using a MAC has made you stupid.

No, but advocating windows vista on apple hardware in a linux newsgroup is.
Or didn't you spot the crosspost?
It's what oxturd does.

No, but cross-posting to Windows and Linux groups is.

More than half of the posts that Schestowitz makes are about either Windows,
Mac, iPod, Zune, Apple, etc. So when he makes these posts is he also
trolling?

those are all legitimate groups to help save people time and effort.

so learn to understand the future of computing or stay in the past.

i'm clearly, just trying to help!

and will do so until everyone is up and running on a modern open
standards based platform.

Very true....
And putting {xxxyy} in front of the post does nothing for Google or
other weblog readers.
It's just a way of condining off topic posts, and a LOT of them.

The Wintrolls need to be shown that the Mac and Linux are superior to
Windoze.

So OxRetard, the typical MAK user, in his complete utter stupidity adds
groups to his SPAM to *penalize* correctly set Follow-Ups

Figures. Mac user are retards, those from CSMA without any exception it
seems. You will not find posters dumber than that anywhere else

You're genuinely bogus.

This is a result of your error, not mine. I believe in free speech, you
do not, so I and EVERYONE will start "adding extra Linux groups"
whenever you can't figure out how to set your follow ups to the proper
groups the poster intended.

You need to learn to be HONEST. Like I am... Why are you so scared of
the truth? That is the primary question...

So now, go run along, get the fastest PC on earth, that happens to be a
Mac!

No wonder Linus moved to the States to be close to Apple, he saw the
writing on the wall long ago... while you are still stuck in Germany?

Correct?
