If Mac was better than Windows, I would be using it. It's not, though. It's just different. Why should I switch to an OS just because it comes with a different set of glitches and problems than the one I'm currently using?

Here's an interesting little note to ruin your fond childhood memories:

The Commodore 64 ran on "Commodore Basic v2.0" As seen here:

Commodore basic, was not written by Commodore. They hired a small company that specialized in OS software to write it for them.

The Company: Microsoft.

Apple Basic was the shit! (Partially because that's where I got my first programs written.)

Well, I use both PCs and Macs... But I am a semi-Justin Long fan. So Mr. Jeepers Creepers wins.

I thought Mac was played by Charles Robinson.

No, not the classic WCW referee. The black one.

The site would be infinitely better if it wasn't set up like a PSP.

Closer examination reveals it's actually a hybrid of Ninteno and Sony portable systems, btw the site is more pro-Nintendo than pro-Sony.

I did notice that the site tends to favor Nintendo. The whole Bowser trial thing was pretty funny. "You want some begging? Try Dr. Wily."
