hey i use a imac with boot camp but i mainly use windows over mac because its all i ever used but i do use the mac side ever so often but getting back to the subject Chris can be very arrogant towards windows users i watched some of his you tube videos and shook my head i never take his advice seriously and it seems that his opinions only matter gets irate when someone dares mentions that windows is better hes a goofy guy hes needs to take all opinions from all sides not the the damn mac side that’s why i don’t looks at his videos or see him live ..

Neill, think whatever you want, dude. In the meantime, learn to get that giant puckered mouth off Chris’s butt.

David, do not say you do the same thing as Chris. I highly doubt you could ever make as much of an audience or revenue as Chris does. You ARE jealous, and its blatantly obvious.

You know it’s really interesting reading this. I have been going in Chris Pirillo chat room for a few months now on and off. Although I prefer Mac OS X over windows it’s only down to personal choice, I’ve used all versions of Windows (including Vista) and a few distributions of Linux too. One thing Chris never really seems to talk about much at all on his live videos is Linux…why? Could it be to do with the fact it’s an open source OS and isn’t really likely to make him much money — his site is full of annoying adds — or is it to do with the fact he doesn’t know how to use it?

I have to admit, Chris is entertaining to watch and quite funny on times but I can’t help feel he is trying to make a huge mark on the world and overrates himself somewhat! It’s useful for people to have a place to go for answers but not if they are just going to be flamed for mentioning the fact they are using Windows. Maybe it should become an Apple support chat and only then may apple give him the sponsor he really really years for…

Nice one, Phil. But, jealousy has nothing to do with it. I do the exact same thing for a living that Chris does, so I can’t be jealous of his life. And, by the way, my primary system IS a Mac Pro. I could afford a Mac, I use one, and you still don’t see my openly bashing the users of Windows. Why? Because its stupid and it would insult almost my entire audience.

I believe Chris Pirillo never stated that he didn’t have his own opinions. I think in this case it’s a jealousy issue. I don’t own a Mac – maybe someday I will, but I really think, from the tone of this article bashing Chris, that someone is a bit jealous of someone’s life.

See, the thing is, Chris can afford and use any OS he chooses… but he’d prefer to use his Mac – so be it. I think I’ll get one now, just to spite you.

I agree with the criticism, however consider that Chris was blunt and obnoxious toward Apple before he “got religion”. PC users loved that attitude. It’s no surprise that now that he is enamored with OS X, he has simply changed the target of his invective.

There’s nothing worse than a recovering WIndows user.
