Probably.

Ok here's my retort to the jokes.

Beige: Yeah you know what? Macs were beige too. Most 'Windows' computers are black or silver now. Have a nice day.

Floppy Drive: Dell doesn't put floppies in their computers anymore.

Date in the name: XP? What?

Winamp vs iTunes: iTunes is MF`ing slow on both platforms. Good Lord. Winamp 2.9 is bad ass by comparison.

Screen Clutter: has nothing to do with the OS, dumb witt. I've worked with creative directors on Macs who had so many icons that they over lapped.

I don't see what this has to do with Mac vs Windows. More like modern versus old school - you can say the same derogatory comments about a 5 year old Mac.

I like floppy drives. They're good for when your computer is really really hosed and you need to flash the bios.
 
I like floppy drives as well; how else am I going to save a report or document?

Ever heard of CDs? Dell's computers are even flashable from the OS. I mean, the flash programs that run on floppies run from DOS, why not Windows? It makes sense. Apple's computers flash from within the OS as well.

As far as saving your documents ... that's what the hard drive is for. You'd like to move it around? That's what the Internet is for. Email it to yourself. There are also services, like .Mac (for Apples), that provide you with an easy online virtual disk.

FLOPPIES ARE BAD, MMMKAY?

What a coincidink! I just PM'd Duke about how my Chem teacher insisted that I use a floppy to transfer my PowerPoint presentation to her computer instead of me just uploading it to a server and downloading it to her computer, because she said that downloading it would infect her computer and cause it to crash.

Goddammit lady, the floppy is more likely to cause a problem!
