Just walk up to his computer and covertly press Ctrl+Option+Command(Apple Key)+8 to instantly invert all colors. Press the same combo again to revert to normal - but not before having some fun. ^^ You want something to make a Mac lover freak out?

It's either not real, (meaning it's a picture) or it's an application using the motion sensor in the mac. Amazing piece of code though. This is just a joke…. it’s ART man.

It's an ART program. Give it the poetic license to call it the Newton Virus, which whether it's malware or a virus or program. It's specifically for an artistic purpose. It's a virus in the same sense that hamburgers aren't actually ham.... 2. It's a pretty neat bit of code, and the same effect can be achieved on any operating system, but only on a computer with the SMS, Sudden Motion Sensor. 3. Saying the virus looks sexier on your OS is retarded, see 2. 4. The reason the mac appears to get/have fewer viruses and mac-specific malicious software is that mac represents a far smaller population of computer users, as backed up by the following article, CNET News: "Although Apple sales typically represent less than 5 percent of the overall U.S. personal computer market, 8.2 percent of Americans who surf the Web at home do so using a Mac, according to the study. Nearly all the rest of those who go online--89.4 percent--do so using a Windows-based PC." It is not worth the time to code a bit of software to target 8.2% when you can, with the same amount of time, increase yields/infections of the virus by 10 times. 5. And just to add fire to the age-old flame war between PC's and macs, can your mac right click? Kthanks. x) Look.

i’m also interested in what super mechanic abilities a Mac has

if i were to dismantle a Mac and PC and lay the components side by side unless you were very well trained you could not tell them apart

you can install Windows on a Mac and OS10 on a PC

if you get down to the code they’re both written in the same language C++

a Mac might have a few differences in what has been coded but it is still a Personal Computer
