Saw this the other day - well done video! However, what you can't see is the PC cloaked with invisibility that shoots it down right outside the window. No big deal though.

I don't know about you, but I don't want my computer to fly away.

Since I tweak my PC and build them myself a Mac would be unacceptable for me.

that was some good editing. for those of you who have lost faith in PC because of vista, i'd suggest checking out Windows 7. It's super optimized and much easier to use. my laptop got a lot faster after the upgrade, vista was a dead weight. but honestly....


(even tho it's just on OS, still badass)

IMO the only advantage to a Mac is their hardware is good. I abhor the Mac OS and lack of compatibility.

And honestly, my PC's give me almost no trouble.
