Mark Cuban Effuses on MacBook, Flails English Language

Mark Cuban, owner of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks, was so frustrated with his experience with Windows Vista that he purchased a MacBook and apparently loves it. Interestingly enough, the self-anointed 'technology maverick' once starred in his very own HP commercial.

First is that when I close my MacBook without turning it off, it doesn't lose power. It can sit there for hours and then work when I open it up. The 2nd is that it rarely freezes up. Maybe 3 or 4 times in months. Finally, i LOVE the fact that it boots up in 1/1000000000 of the time it takes my PC. It probably will add years to my life .. (ok an exaggeration).


Great Mark, now maybe we can do something about this:
When you get as many emails as I do. Thats a problem. When it also causes the system to freeze, its more than just a problem. My first step was to get a copy of CPU Magazine with Vista tricks. The tricks helped. Everything froze or crashed less often. Significantly less often. But the annoyance factor was beyond belief. I dont run any special applications. I run outlook, Office and firefox. Thats it.

Seriously, Mark there's this thing called a comma, try it sometime.
