Yantelope Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I used to be a Nintendo fanboy up until the N64 days but I had to jump ship after the Gamecube destroyed my hopes and dreams. I've become a MS fanboy even though they're evil. I just spend so much time on my Xbox. I think Apple fanboys are the worst though. If a PC is too hard for you need to go back to school. Who are you a fanboy of and which fanboys can you not stand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zuzela Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Complete Doctor Who fanboi (girl) here. One of my many New Year's resolutions is to catch up on the pre-2005 episodes. Twilight fans need to go away and live in a hovel. Bleugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicMagicPony Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 If a PC is too hard for you need to go back to school. Okay, that is like when men refuse to go to the doctor even if they chopped their finger off because that would be sissy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yantelope Posted January 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Well, we can change to off topic if we're gonna include more than just gaming. Didn't think that far ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMagicPony Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 "PC = hard = manly apple = easy = gay" I guess I hate anti apple fanboys. I think it's a bunch of bullshit backlashing. It's still a box with them internets and a typey board. Who fucking cares. I used to work with programmers and goddammit they will give you so much shit for working on an apple even when working on an apple makes sense. ESPECIALLY when working on an apple makes sense. I DO NOT GET IT. WHY DO THEY CARE?! /issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yantelope Posted January 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 (edited) <---Forgot he was talking to a graphic designer. Well, I guess I get the other side of the coin because most of the people I know who deal with Macs make all these claims about how super easy and intuitive it is and how PCs are just to complicated and break all the time.

MagicMagicPony Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I haven't used a pc since I lived at home and I was watching a coworker (in a diff department) do some normal move-files-into-folders open-folders type stuff and I could not figure out what the hell was going on heaven help me if I ever have to use a pc again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deanb Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 @yante: I'll shift this to Off-Topic but if you want you could make a more gamer orientated repeat of this topic in GGC. Just if the topic moves then becomes 90% about game platforms then it'd mean moving it again, it can live fine as two threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewblaha Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Android fanboys are the worst. Any time a new phone comes out, it's immediately the iPhone killer. Still waiting on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battra92 Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Someobe said I'm a Nintendo fanboy. I don't quite see the merit in that. Anyway, I really am not a big fan of some of the Apple fanboys in my office. Yes Steve Jobs is selling a new product. No you don't need it to complete your task. Yes you are free to use your own money to buy it. No I am not disabling security features so that you can put it on our network. I'm anti any fanboy who can't stand to see someone else have fun because it's not THEIR choice of fun. Now if you excuse me, I'm off to go play Super Paper Mario.

deanb Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Android fanboys are the worst. Any time a new phone comes out, it's immediately the iPhone killer. Still waiting on that. hehe. Give it about 3-4months. (But don't set your alarm for then..) It's gonna end up the same as Windows n Mac. Ones cheaper n more versatile, allowing for all range of budgets n manufacturers, n the others an Apple. Several manufacturers vs one it's kind of inevitable that it's going top push past iPhone. As for Macs: I fucking hate the assumption that cos you're doing a digital creative profession that you obviously should be using macs. No they are shitty computers, I don't want to use them. I'd like to work not fucking stare at a beach ball all day when you open anything more computationally demanding than Safari. Thankfully this year all but a couple of stalwart tutors kinda got the message so now we're mostly on some nice n shiny Windows 7 machines that can actually do shit.

Mal Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'm sure present day Apple computer are great but man are they are costly. Also, you remember those HORRIBLE Apple computers back from school? Yeah, those left a sour taste for Apple computers or any of their products. Combine that with their price and yeah... not buying them. However, I have tried a iPad not too long ago and it was pretty neat. Very responsive. As for me being a fanboy... Pleinair. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akuam4n Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'm sure present day Apple computer are great but man are they are costly. That would depend on who you ask. I have a PC right now, I just prefer my Mac. I like the OS, and I tend to like the programs I can get on there moreso than what I can get on a PC. The only thing I feel I ever miss out on is gaming, and I can dual boot if need be. I can USE a PC, I just dislike it. I even have an android phone, I don't like it either.

Tiffany Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I'm a huge Halo fangirl and even did a little machinima in highschool. I don't dislike any fanboys for their interests, but it sure seems the CoD people hate on Halo people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
