What's the most annoying company ?

[Mod]

Hey ! Name that ! :D

[thcdru2k]

apple..i hate those things

[LORD-eX-Bu]

Apple and their dumb commercials.;)

[stncttr908]

"My name is so and so and I'm a dumb **** that can't use a ****ing computer."

I'd kill them if I could.

[pelly]

Certainly Apple...

We have great systems that look good and are easy to work on.....we have a great new OS and some excellent video-editing capabilities...

With all this going for us...why bother using a fast CPU?

:rolleyes:

Honestly, with the fastest dual system running at roughly 1GHz.... with 2.2GHz AMD and 3Ghz Intel CPU's on the market, their systems are very dated...

With a good x86 CPU, and the ported Jaguar OS...I'm sure Apple would be a force to be reckoned with....

:D

[thcdru2k]

or the "i don't have to download and install drivers and software" talk about selection

[|JuiceZ|]

Apple! :mad:

[stncttr908]

That cracks me up.

"Who wants to spend Christmas afternoon downloading Windows drivers?"

No one. That's why it comes with a driver CD you stupid ::insert derogatory obscenity here:: :mad:

MICROSOFT!!!!!!!!!!

download the pdf and you will see why MS sucks and why its being sued!

And yes, Apple sucks too!, but Microsoft is trying to destroy the linux community, so I hate them more.

The link above shows you what kind of cruelty they're doing to the community.

I can deal with the Apple rhetoric. But, MicroShaft has to take the cake. I can't stand having to install Windows XX.XX. Once it's installed, the upgrade game starts. Upgrade this component...reboot. Upgrade that component...reboot. And, it goes on for about an hour. Upgrade sound or video drivers? Reboot. Why? I reinstalled linux the other day. How long did it take? 1.5 hours tops. I haven't updated yet. But, that would just be a 100+ mb download. And, if I'm not updating the kernel, there is not reboot. If the kernel is updated, one reboot. Need to update video drivers? Shutdown X, install drivers, and restart X. How simple can it get? I hope MicroShaft remains complicated.

MS, Apple, and....

Well, Armadillo Aerospace (I believe that's the name of it). It takes up JC's valuable time away from Doom 3!

damn them... damn them all to hell.

OK, not really. More along the lines of the record and movie industries (so it's a collection of corporations, sue me).

Microsoft wants to destroy their competition, how horrible. why in the world would they ever want to do such a thing :D

it's just like the Apple commericials, discredit Wintel machines so people think they suck and switch to Apple.

[Ryo-Ohki]

Apple for their general attitude, Microsoft for everything else... :)

[saturnotaku]

I don't hate Apple nearly as much as I used to. If OS X didn't improve as much as it has in the last year and if Apple didn't have the iPod, but they maintained their same holier-than-thou attitude I'd say they were the most annoying. I find it hard to argue with a company that has a simple to use operating system based on Unix. Their commercials piss me off to no end, but from a business perspective I understand why they do it.

Microsoft - yes everyone thinks they're evil. I certainly don't agree with many of their business practices. But let's face it, there is a lot of good MS has done for the computing world. MS also produces some excellent hardware. Their mice and game pads are the best I've ever used, period. Plus, in a sort of ironic way, MS has helped spur on the development of Linux. Would Linux be where it is today if Microsoft were such a friendly company? I think not. :D

ATI - the company doesn't bother me as much as the people who think their products are the second coming of Christ.

So that leaves me with the opinion that there really isn't one company that's more "annoying" than any other. I'll let you know if I think of one.

It's funny the two biggiest companies in puters and you guys are crying. :confused:

[thcdru2k]

i like microsoft...probably because i've never used anything else. microsoft os has the best compatibilty and selection out there.

i guess no one hates nvidia :) only thing annoying is how long the nv30 is taking to come out

[SavagePaladin]

I'm for Intel....
I hate any company that has advertising in my face every ten seconds, and that includes Intel when reading game magazines and Dell on TV :P

Apple is the second biggest computer in computers?

[ALobpreis]

AOL maybe? :D

[thcdru2k]

AOL how could anyone forget they are most annoying company on the face of the planet. i've gotten like 50 cds in the mail over the years

[UDawg]

oops

[vampireuk]

ack AOL CD's, those things turned up faster than I could dispose of them

[Smokey]

Has to be AOL, maybe its because I dont live in the US and see those Apple commercials :confused: But AOL is everywhere and have stupid commercials here in France on the tv :rolleyes:

[bigC]

those stupid apple ads just piss me off. i don't really care a lot about microshaft, but i hate apple even more. there are no blue screens in xp: it's stable, more so, than os x, from what i've heard, which doesn't "just work" like those dorks want you to believe. and, why would you buy a mac anyway? what can you do with one that you can't do with a pc, for a 1/2 of the price?? you can't game on a mac, that's for sure.

you can turn them on. otherwise the OS just restarts by itself. in other words, you still have "blue screen" crashes, just with no blue screens, by default.
