Laptop Hunter Bash: Still Hunting...

Where is Frank?

So funny b/c I actually know Sheila (I just talked with on her on phone which is why I decided to look up her commercial) We were speaking via iPhone btw,.
She really was shopping for a PC that day and they spotted her shopping and got her to do the ad. But yeah, she knows everything you are saying; she had to play dumb for the commercial. She is a professional editor (she's actually worked on many feature length films) and actually uses a Mac for work. That's why these commercials always cracked me up. But they did pay for her PC (I forgot what happened to it but I think she sold it not long after).

Compared to it's price, it doesn't suck. You get what you pay for with OSX. You definently don't get what you pay for when you buy apple's computers though. If one part goes out, have fun with their shitty customer service. Also, not once did I say OSX is better than 7, because it isn't. The only thing I ever got to run faster than my copy of 7, is Gentoo. That's saying something, since Gentoo is basedgod in speed.

you dont work in IT do you...

OSX dose suck. it wont work properly when installed to an ssd. ironically comparing just the big 2: windows and OSX, windows 7 will boot faster than OSX mountain lion on an ssd todays standard boot drive

Seriously, I built a 1200 dollar PC that would annihilate any mac pro, or any mac for that matter. Fuck you, apple.

@Obsidion626 Using a mac gives you the freedom to install windows 7 easily without any extra efforts. With todays GPUs in Macs you can play games just as good as on any other laptop. Oh and about "customization"... I think it was mentioned before but lets say that again for you... we're talking about laptops here.

this guy dosent know a shit....2gb ram isnt fast enough these days i got 12 gb ram in my computer still is slow sometimes and i got a intel i7 processor

omg dude you suck i own a mac book pro and it sucks in comparrison to my hp laptop that i bought 5 years ago and even still the laptop that i personally built from scrap parts is better than my mac book pro. And she was shopping at fry's electronics when you said the guy wouldn't look at her and was instead looking at the mac book pro. They get paid commission so of course he'd try to talk her into a more expensive piece of garbage. Cost more = paid more

haha silly mac fansboys, they will never learn :p

watch?v=bm7JH1FT_yM

could get her a way better spec pc computer than a shitty overpriced mac

she want's a webcam and she is film creator.... hmmm..... i guess she is going to be on those webcam "adult" sites and needs a big screen to be able to see her own body fit.... and wtf dude, there a many good pc's out there that is just as good (if not better) than macs, and they are cheaper. mac is fucking expensive for what you get, they sell on the brand (the apple logo)... and if you don't like windows than get linux... linuz is just simple and clean no over flashy menu stuff there..........

Also, why were you bashing on Movie Maker so much? Yet iMovie is just as terrible? You go on to say there is Final Cut also. There's Premiere and Vegas on PC as well... all very good too. There is nothing Premiere Pro can't do that FCP can. Lastly, she never said she wanted to be a movie maker. She said she wanted to cut video, Movie Maker would actually be a lot better than Final Cut and what not if she just wants that, which she does.

Macs are wonderful. I love doing my Graphics/Video work on a Mac, but there is only one little thing keeping me away. Games. Yeah, herp derp. I'm a huge PC gamer and I love ripping my PC apart and adding new shit etc. it just interests me. But that's the only thing keeping me back. I would love to have a secondary computer that's a Mac, but my iPhone and iPad do a job of my portable stuff, and I never need a powerful computer on the go. People like you annoy the fuck out of me anyway.

@NO1MACFAN noway, i discovered something: mac means Must Always Crash...

no she would be holding a peace of crap in a box if she got mac rofl god im so glad jobs died maybe the punch distillery will finally close for good.

MACS are crap, true story.

ok , i'm not trying to be rude or anything , but i'm a pc user , i've always been a pc user , i like the macbook pro design and look , but it's too expensive to buy a macbook pro , and it would be too expensive if i change the OS , i'll have to buy new software , it'll take time to adapt to a new os , so i'll stick to my pc . it's been good to me.

Mac rocks !!! worth for anything :)

Piece of crap in a box!!!...hehehe,...well said!!

all people forget the fact that mac is a PC(Personal Computer), why not mac vs windows maybe. PC vs Mac(or Mac vs PC) is idiot because mac is a PC

to tell you the truth why would you want to pay $2500 mac, when i can upgrade my pc more for that

@NO1MACFAN not really

PC stands for Piece of Crap...

you know it was because of these laptop hunter commercials that Mac stopped their bashing of PC.

SORRY FOR THE LAG, HHAHAHA

You said what Mac doesn't have a webcam? The Mac Mini and Mac Pro don't without buying one for it like a cinema display or a web cam from Logitech or Microsoft.

Why the hell would buy a PC if your going to do video editing? She is gunner struggle to find software that rivals final cut pro for pc for the same price? I mean if she was into gaming fair enough buy a PC there isn't many games out for mac (Yet)

Yeah of course, OS and Specs don't have ANYTHING to do with eachother, right? How come a Mac with the same specs is DOUBLE the price of a PC??? Also, even if you DO spend less money on a Mac (impossible, but still) you will have to pay 130$ for every lousy update. Windows gives free updates and service packs for free, even 8 years after the initial release. That way, Mac are even more expensive.

It's so amusing when people laugh at movie maker. Is it bad? Yes. Does it matter? Not really, for professional that is. Professionals wont use movie maker or iMovie for that matter, because there is professional video editing software that is way better than movie maker or iMovie. If a professional is buying a laptop to edit video with, iMovie or movie maker wont be an argument on which side he/she should choose to go with. Both are bad for real professional needs. Equally bad? No, but still bad

when you're buying a notebook, you've lots of choices mac only has like 2 choices: macbook, macbook pro unlike pc you've tons of choices

could you be any more stupid? because it's not a mac it's automatically a piece of crap? grow up you fanboy, all manufacturers have good and bad products, mac is no different.

fucking mac fan-boy. at the end of the vid he said he will be stickin with his mac, and i know why, he's scarded to get a real computer

Looking at the laptop she bought, I KNOW that the graphics card is not powerful enough to "cut" video, and even though it has 4gb of ram (memory) it's probably the bottom of the barrel crap ram.

hey macintoshtipz ur A FUCKIN MAC FANBOY WHO IS FULL OF SHIT JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE HELL UR TALKIN ABOUT

The ad is obviously full of lies, but just as the apple ads are. I got my computer for gaming so of course I got a PC, but if it wasn't for gaming I sure would have taken a look at macs.

Actually, in the commercials, they bring in retarded holes who don't know anything about the interior. They may say fast, but they don't know what they're talking about. It's scripted. And Mac has all the stuff they want without purchasing apps or downloading 3rd party apps. If she was a film maker, she would know that she needs a Macintosh. Even with Final Cut, she could get one for under 2G. The other computers only had 2GB of ram too. She's a dumbass. + she could have added.

2 gigs is fast enough, burn in a fire

Don't you have anything better to do with your time than to bash a commercial? Having owned numerous Macs and a PCs and having used them both for years they are pretty much the same. Also 2gigs of ram gets used up quick when your video editing... Nice try.

what about sony vegas? or the adobe suite?

Well, the point of the ads is that for everything a Mac has, there is another computer on the market that has the same components for a lower price. The point this ad is supposed to be making is that for 1000 dollars, you can get the features of an apple computer with a higher price tag -- albeit, with better construction and a slightly faster OS (although, Win7 is a lot better with the speed issues).

That isnt a 15 its a 17in. Another thing is your already showing a bias Mac fanboy. Also just becuase there is a $2000 limit doesn't mean she wants to spend it all because if you can find something cheaper thats better you will get that. Movie maker is crap but for a film maker windows has so many better programs you can buy to use if shes that serious. With the processors also you just claim fast. Another thing is Intel makes Mac processors cuz Mac sucked. They had BSOD issues with it.

@jackthePS3GAMER you forgot about adobe premier

lol

I tell people to use what they like. I'm into PCs and I do Interactive Media for a living (and get paid well). I won't knock Mac users nor PC users. The one thing that I will say is TRUTH is that the brands are meaningless now. Whatever you can do on a Mac you can do on a PC. So buy what you like more and what you're comfortable with. If I wanted to be a film maker, then I wouldn't bother with Movie Maker or iMovie. That's for the kid making home movies, not a professional.

@obbma4ler22 Yes and i like it but people whom never tried to use a mac is because Job$ choose another "type" of target people'$.

@XPeedy Apparently not, according to NASDAQ

Fanboy...

haha wish her luck with windows fucking movie maker and wants to be a film maker lmao! fuckn idiot
