    How about we try to simplify it for you? Hmm?

    PC stands for Personal Computer. Are you following along so far? (Yeah, that was condescending, but you can't honestly tell me you didn't deserve it.)

    Macs are used at people's homes, correct? Then they fall under the umbrella of Personal Computers.

    Now can we get back on topic before all 3 of us get modded?

    Look at the post above you.

    Read it.

    Its amazing how people dont read things and then throw out garbage.

    READ READ READ READ.

    Again I will repeat since its hard for people to read so many posts back.

    Not ONCE did I say the hardware side for MAC's are not PC's.

    I said the SOFTWARE side of MAC's are still MAC's.

    There is a DIFFERENCE.

    BUT IT IS IRRELEVANT!

    In the end they will lay their freedom at our feet and say to us, 'Make us your slaves, but feed us.'

    1) Yes. As in the fact that they are both Personal Computer games.

    2) No. You pried it open with your crowbar of irrelevance.

    3) Again, No. Not your place to do so. Shouldn't correct other people. It's rude.

    4) Should I even answer this one? There was nothing to be wrong about.

    I am wrong in an irrelevant context.

    As I have said from the very beginning of your digression, and the point I have been making the entire, the discussion is "PC" vs "Console"; not "Windows" vs "Console" or "Windows" vs "MacOS" vs "PS3", etc...

    In a discussion of Apples vs Oranges, you are saying "Braeburn Apples need to be a treated separately". They don't.

    MacOS is a operating system which exists on PC's, Windows is an operating system which exists on PC's.

    That they are different is completely irrelevant to the topic, as that Braeburn apples and Pink Slipper apples are different is irrelevant.

    In the end they will lay their freedom at our feet and say to us, 'Make us your slaves, but feed us.'

    It seems your memory is like a fish.

    When I said D3 and SC2 where not PC only games. YOU and read this again YOU made the point that MAC's where PC's when it came to games, which I elaborated that, that is not true.

    Go look. You opened it up for discussion not I.

    So lets not go with bending words yes?

    Actually, you were the one to crack this crap hole open. Dhampy made a generalization about the PC gaming world on the second to last post of page 4. You misunderstood him and told him they were also on Macs. He wasn't saying that they were Pcs only, note the lower case of "c", he was saying that they were PCs only as in they are not available for console systems.

    Go look for yourself. Link

    And Macs are Personal Computers. That they're a different kind of PC is irrelevant.

    Your argument can be summed up as "No, Windows is PC". And that's wrong. Macs have always been personal computers, as were Commodore's and Amiga's and Timex-Sinclair's and TI-99's.

    To go back to a parallel: In a discussion of Sedans vs SUV's, you are drawing a distinction between a Toyota Corolla and a Chevy Malibu. A distinction which is irrelevant in the discussion.
