    caption fail.
    .
    there are a lot more than 113k bugs in windows…

  2. Uncle Fester says:

    Isn’t Windows technically a virus?

  3. Anniee451 says:

    Wait a minute, 113K bugs mentioned and NOT A MOSQUITO among them??? I’m sorry, fail for not even bringing up the mosquitos.

  4. Dan says:

    Someone make a chart on graph jam to show how likely this picture was made by a mac user.

    • FaileV says:

      it’s okay, we can quietly laugh as their computers are destroyed by trojans. Honestly i can care less what OS you use, but if get up on a high horse about how great Macs are and you get a trojan…you’re an idiot.

    • ubr says:

      more likely built by someone who uses a pc… mac users don’t know what viruses are…

      • James says:

        Anyone that thinks OSX is somehow immune to viruses is in for a “bag of hurt”, to quote Mr. Jobs, once the user base gets to a point of being on virus writer’s radar. Right now with the number of people using OSX it just isn’t worth the effort.

        • Uncle Fester says:

          OS X is BSD in a party frock. Unless the user has too high a security setting, then there’s an issue. Unless Apple have seriously Borked the BSD security shell, there’s not much that one can do. There aren’t that many root-equivalent process that one can hijack. Still, I’m always pleased to hear from spreaders of F.U.D. with their news on security holes in stuff that’s been around since the 1970s…

        • AK™ says:

          I think Penny Arcade did a comic about Macs and viruses

    • ethana2 says:

      Be sure to compare with how likely it was to have been made by an Ubuntu user.

  5. Enigmatick says:

    …3.1. Windows 95 and up have far more, of course.

  6. Odilon says:

    It they’re known, they’re not bugs.

    They’re features.

    Carry on.

  7. crazykitteh says:

    Windows jokes will never die, it seems.

  8. oranegreen says:

    I just got a blue screen like that on my XP computer :<

  9. penguin_man says:

    All those bugs are user caused bugs. There comes a time when your grandma’s IBM just wont cut it.

  10. Bob Newhart says:

    Mac fanboys are truly pathetic.

  11. LOL says:

    Just throwing this out there. The only time I hear mention of arrogant mac users, it isn’t from a mac user, it’s a PC user assuming it. I use a Mac. I like it because It came with recording software and it user friendly. PC’s have better features, I’m not sure what, but they are there.

  12. IowaSucks says:

    completely off topic, but the new Kindle 2 has been announced. it’ll ship on 24Feb(?). i ordered mine today! i love my kindle one.
    any other kindle users out there?

    • IowaSucks says:

      and no, i don’t work for amazon, nor would i or anyone i know benefit in any way if anyone buys or doesn’t buy a kindle. i just love it, that’s all.

      • And I envy you your new toy. *sigh*

        • IowaSucks says:

          thanks, v2 just looks so nice, thinner, couple new features, better screen etc
          [link]

          do you own, or have you used v1?
          i’ve become additced

          • No, it’s just one of those things I’d have if I could afford it.
            Love the idea of it. Being able to carry a bunch of books around with you and only having to carry less than a pound? It’s up there with some of the stuff we were supposed to have by now. It’s the 21st century, and I still don’t have my robot maid or my flying car, but this is close enough.

            Sadly, I don’t have $360 to spend on one item that’s of limited practical use. I’m assuming at some point the price will drop, or I’ll pick up a used one.

            • Uncle Fester says:

              but I bet you have the silver jump suit…

            • IowaSucks says:

              start looking for the used version 1′s now. you could get a good price.
              honestly, it’s not something i would have thought to buy for myself. a friend bought it for me, and now i love it.
              i was going to upgrade both of us to v2 until we went over the specs and desgin changes.

              • Uncle Fester says:

                It doesn’t sound like an upgrade.

                • IowaSucks says:

                  exactly the conclusion that we, and a whole bunch of people posting up on amazon came to.
                  .
                  if v2 is a first time purchase, it’s still a great product and i highly recommend it.
                  .
                  balancing out the pros and cons of the changes made to v2, it’s as good as the v1, but not better.
                  since i already own v1, there’s no reason to buy a v2. they’re not giving current owners any incentive other than we can be put at the beginning of the list to buy v2. i think they made a huge mistake in addressing only form and not function.

      • IowaSucks says:

        nevermind. if you’ve got the kindle 1, keep it.
        - they removed the sd card
        - they don’t include the book cover (hard case) which is necessary to help prevent damage
        - the still haven’t added the ability to categorize books, so all of your books still show up in one long list, no matter what
        - screen is the same size (not an issue for me, but some people wanted bigger)
        - can’t replace the battery
        .
        + it’s a little thinner
        + digital ink technology now allows 16 shades of gray instead of just the 4, but i didn’t buy it for pictures, it’s for reading.
        + it does text to speech, but how good is it? don’t know
        + longer battery life
        .
        i decided to wait for v3 if they can actually make improvements. until then, i still love my v1.

    In the words of Homer (Simpson not the Greek Guy) “Funny because it’s true” :-)

  14. Niho says:

    I’ve honestly never had any major problems with Windows. I think the problems that most people have with it are either simple technical problems (like not having enough RAM… that’s one I’ve seen a lot), or users not really understanding how to mantain a computer, and what to avoid.

  15. kr0w says:

    The old adage of something like the only people that own Harley Davidson motorcycles are people that can afford them in both time and money.

    Well to share the love, OSs have seemingly taken on route or the other. Mac (or Apple products in general) are taking the “money” route.

    Windows takes the time route with required maintenance to keep you relatively clean from malware.

    the *nix scene, also taking time, there’s a learning curve there that makes for a lot of nights reading man files…

    These are all based off of total utilization of the OS, not just checking your email and surfing LOLsites…

  16. Susie says:

    I think it’s funny that most of you who bag on Windows know absolutely nothing about computers. I have Windows Vista and I have absolutely NO problems with it.

  17. cat says:

    Why is this on the politics page and not lol celebs?

  18. Blawr!! says:

    BILL GATES WHAT DOES THE SCOUTER SAY ABOUT THE ERROR LEVER?

    IT’S OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!!!!

  19. Leager says:

    You know, I’m surprised all the people commenting on here about the user being the real issue haven’t just shortened it to something more familiar (and infinitely more entertaining). PEBKAC. Funny shirt about it on thinkgeek.com as well. For those who don’t know, and don’t care enough to look it up on google, PEBKAC means:Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair. Customer Service technician win!

  20. Nikki says:

    Damn right it was stupid. Considering the amount of money he’s being paid by the sponsors. Those sponsors are paying him to be a roll model, so if he wants to be a ‘normal’ 23 year old and do pot like normal people, he can not get paid millions of dollars by sponsors like normal people.

  21. Lance E Sloan says:

    Looks like that picture was ‘shopped. Too bad if it was.

  22. Shitiria says:

    I love it how ‘ASS’ is right next to his head.

  23. SmoothLikeJello says:

    Photoshop much?

  24. Uncle Fester says:

    If that’s the case he’s a bigger cretin than he seemed. Case hardening Windows isn’t that hard… but it’s more faff than *nix

  25. James says:

    Glad security by obscurity is working for you so far :) .
