@thor Liking the OS is fine, its a nice comprimise if you want something easier to use like windows but isnt complete crap.
Problem is they effectively force you to buy their hardware too, so you cant escape it being a ripoff (legally).
I own a mac, i dont really use it, but I have one.
@ned Neither of them, and shame on you for attacking one innocent group to raise up another... lets not.
@thor Macs will always be under powered for any particular price point... They are like strippers, you are paying for the looks, not for what it can do :)
@robcinos I mostly agree with this... But more importantly if you dont have the needed expertise to determine if something is true, its your obligation not to push your uneducated opinion on others too.
@louis Its important to note most paid doesnt mean its the best field to get into. A lot of times with some languages its high paid simply because there are very few jobs and few people who know it. so the jobs are very hard to actually find and get despite being well paid once you get it.
@thor
Well the only 2 people I was gonna rob... I guess I'll give up my life of crime and just go back to ethical piracy.
@realcaseyrollins @freemo
Wait, I thought Women were minorities now.... clearly I am not getting all my memos.
So I just joined a gun club in the city with a nice shooting range I can shoot at for free for a year now. I even paid extra upfront to bring my own bullets.... On a related note I bought a bulk pack of x1000 9mm parabelum and x1000 10mm auto.... shits about to get real!
If you havent already saw attached are the two guns im training on.
@AmpBenzScientist Kimber rapide dawn is probably the nicest 1911 out there (at 1600$ I hope so :)).
Isnt a double-stack 1911 a 2011?
@Pjcoyle I even tried oiling it, but alas, I cant easily get it out
@AmpBenzScientist Not sure I know that saying...
@Pjcoyle Nope. The little piece you need to take out to take off the top slide (the same button you hit to release the slide) doesnt come out very easily and requires a tool to push it out.
@LouisIngenthron I can see some reasons the design might be popular with some. A good exampleis that it is one of the few only single action pistols (most are DA or DA+SA)... for some that may be a safety feature (as it is hard to accidentally go off if you uncock it). The single stack also gives it a nice feel in the hand.
But I agree, if all platforms came out today for the first time I dont think 1911 would come out on top, and its the historic aspects thatlikely cause that overall.
@rchrd Yea its great. the drawback seems to be int he 1911 design in general, just not easy to field strip.. otherwise seems like a nice platform and amazing when the kimber makes it.
@rchrd My baretta 92x performancd defensive is my best overall, adustable trigger easy breakdown, customizatiomn options, and hits the target.
Now if all i care about is shooting id say my kimber 1911 is a very close second.
