Edit:
Btw, Ketchup, your math fails hard.

Voided, if you weren't such a red neck, you'd understand 7th grade level math.
Go git me dat der possum, boy! - K
Even Danke agrees that your math is stupid. Go read some books Ketchup, your knowledge is obviously lacking.

Voided, you do realize that both of those examples are acknowledged from multiple mathematicians worldwide?
Please tell me what you think is incorrect with them. (PM me, this thread isn't for your lacking of intelligence.) Red neck.

That would be godly. A fully supported universal x86 distro that runs on any old PC. Be a lot easier than having to throw together the whole OSx86 thing.

PC> MAC

Reasons:
-PC is much easier to spell
-PC's are cheaper
-MACS have less games and stuff

2: Depends on what class you're comparing. I posted here (but it got deleted...?_?) a statement I remember from Apple's WWDC 2006. Apple compared a Mac Pro to some Dell server: same specs, Apple's costed like $400 cheaper.

That is because Dell is stupid. Personally I want a Mach V... It's only around $9,620.

Uh...I don't know what your source is, because T1 is actually pretty slow, it's 1.5 Mbps. My Comcast is faster, at around 3-4 Mbps.
OC3 is 155.52 Mbps.

Also, Macs can have any kind of internet that PCs have; mine had Comcast. Use facts, please.

Lmfao.
Yeah, I bet Macs can't handle 56k either.
Oh wait, yes they can, it's called AppleTalk. -_-

Facts:
  • Any computer with a working NIC can use ethernet technologies; the same goes for Fiber too.
  • T1 isn't really that fast.
  • T3, while being quite faster than T1, is no where near Fiber speed.
  • T3 is the fastest ethernet connection. Not T1 and enernet.
  • Lastly, Optical Carrier lines are the fastest in the world. It is laughable when they are compared to Tn lines.
While there are unused OC technologies out there, the fastest connection available is is the OC-768 line.
Capable of speeds up to ~40,000 Mbit/sec.
Now compare that to T1's measly ~12 Mbit/sec.

Yeah, T1 is definitely the way to go.
And, as Voided pointed out, anything OC is LOLEXPENSIVE.

Even:

expensive++;

Yeah I didn't really feel like typing all that out.. Sure gave me a laugh though.

I mean honestly, anyone who spells internet "enternet" obviously knows a lot about stuff.
