Stop The Madness!!

OK... here it is. I'm absolutely sick to death of hearing all the talk about getting Windows to run on a Mac. How is this news worthy? And more importantly, WHO CARES?!?!?

If I wanted to run Windows, I wouldn't be a Mac user. I use a Mac because it ISN'T Windows!

Have Mac users gone crazy and forgotten that?

And what's Microsoft's response to all of the hoopla? "This just proves that Mac user's have a need for Windows". BULLSHIT! You know what? No one with a brain and any real common sense has a need for Windows, and that includes all the corporate drones who've been locked into their fucked up Windows environment for so long, they're unable to see any other way of doing things, or to extract themselves from the legacy mistakes they've made over the years. At least not without looking like they were wrong all along.

So... can we PLEASE stop all this "talk" about running Windows on a Mac. It's quite ridiculous. I've been looking for news items to post here, but it's been rather slim pickings because of all the Boot Camp crap.

For the record, I will never, EVER (never, never, never, never, never, never, never...) put Windows on my Mac. I have to work in environments where it's all Windows, I have to support those environments, I have to constantly repair, maintain, and secure those environments, and I'd rather be hog-tied, bent-over, and ass-raped by a roving gang of grizzly bears (repeatedly), than subject myself to having Windows run on any of my PERSONAL machines!

And for all of you IT drones (you know, the folks mentioned above) who think that this is just a super-duper thing, and how NOW you can recommend getting Macs because they'll run Windows...? I say, LOSERS!! You could've always recommended Macs, or any other platform for that matter, but you don't, or you didn't, because you either don't want to "rock the boat", or you're too incompetent to support any platform OTHER than Windows. There is no reason that Mac desktops couldn't have been replacing Windows desktops for the past 3 or 4 years in MOST corporations. Why haven't they? Because IT departments are full of people who know only one thing, and are unwilling or unable to change in order to benefit the companies they work for. They aren't (as a whole) concerned with the companies well-being, they're concerned with saving their own collective asses, and to do that, they have to lock everyone in to the one thing they know, no matter how screwed up it is.

So here's my pledge to you, oh faithful readers... I will not post one more article on here about Boot Camp, or running Windows on a Mac. I think it's ludicrous, sick, sad, et al. Of course, if you disagree with me, please feel free to sound off and let me know why...
