That sleek and lovey looking laptop finally making you angry because you knew the specs suck compared to a PC laptop?

Plus, you could've went out and bought a nice PC Laptop that has great specs and is guaranteed to run GMod for how much you paid for a Macbook.

I'm not even sure if Gmod is supported on Macs.

To be fair, your insistence on posting your "advice" in almost every PC help thread thus far warrants us some payback. The irony at play is just too delicious to pass up on.

Any way, have you considered dual booting. Most of my friends whom use Macs have a copy of XP installed on a separate partition for issues like this.

1. Sell mac
2. Buy very nice HP, Dell, Exc
3. ???
4. Profit

In my opinion (Which is correct, of course) Macs are for lazy people who just want what they buy to do interesting flashy stuff. Think of it as a dall house. PC's are for people who want it to do interesting flashy stuff, do lots of different work, and be able to change it easily on demand. Think of it as a box of legos.

Then you have linux. Think of it as a box of modeling clay :D

That's taking things a little too far. A more accurate statement would be that those whom choose to purchase a Mac sacrifice some flexibility, compatibility and cost effectiveness for the convenience and reliability of a system completely designed by one entity.

Linux is more difficult to use but being open source allows the user complete control over their system. If you have the technological knowledge needed to use linux to it's full potential then there are many options available to you, even jobs.
