Q. i say mac becuz windows is a peice of shit that will crah every 5 minutes
A. With Bootcamp software from Apple. Windows XP can also be installed on macs but who wants it ???? Always Mac OS X is the best and if you want windows to reach this stage? Wait till year 2012
I'm long time mac user since 1984. And i have seen windows 95 a new OS coming up in year 1995.I have been using both OSs since then till Mac OS X 10.4 and XP professional.
Mac OS X was introduced in early around June 2001 and XP was introduced in around Nov 2001. Windows is just like an empty plate for yourself to serve and eat(ie get the third party). But Macs are packed with great features and software which you won't even get from the windows third party. Finally why is the Mac user base in the world very small ? Its just same as asking why Ferrari's Market share is less.They are expensive but worth to have.
Macs are designed for students, email & internet users, professionals users.
Apple products hardware & software are designed in such a way that all the complex tasks are done with simplicity and real ease. Looks great and cool.
Eg- iPods. On a iPod you know how easy is it to select a song you want from a collection of 10000 songs library. With just a few clicks on you iPod.Right..! Try that on any other MP3 player in market today.
Thats because the well designed hardware and software and most importantly well integration of the iTunes and iPod. But along with the easy use iPods look beautiful and cool.
Macs are similar. most easy to use, great user experience, great features.
FOR STUDENTS AND GENERAL COMPUTER USERS -
Easy to use with few Examples:-
Drag and drop-
Installation and uninstallation of applications. Just drag the application you want to install from the installation CD and drop in the Application folder and thats it, Installation done. In some cases we need to do installations in conventional way(like windows) but most of the times its drag and drop. For un-installation its just drag the application to the trash and empty it. un-installtion done. Very simple for general users. Same with moving folders and files.
True Plug and play- Of course now XP is also capable of it. But not 98,ME,2000.

I am confused between Fujifilm S2980 and Samsung WB100?
Q. i really cant choose between both, and i can't find helping reviews over the internet, most reviews i found where about ppl who had just bought or received one of the cameras as a gift and were much excited about it!
i want to know if the review of ppl who used it for at least few months, the cons and pros
i know that Samsung has better zoom, and Fujifilm has a view finder but its not that important for me , iam more concerned with good quality that would last for a good period of time , idont wanna buy a camera that breaks down after few months

A. Hi "eman" and welcome to Y!A Camcorders:
You appear to be in Egypt, so I don't know what search engine results you've been getting, but there are some professional reviews on CNet and Engadget, and elsewhere, that you'd find helpful. DP Review (http://dpreview.com) is another good site for digital camera reviews.
One tip: you are asking about two still-cameras (photos not videos) in the Camcorders section. The Y!A Cameras section is where most of the photo camera users hang out. If you're mainly wanting to shoot video, neither is really the best choice for you.
I know a lot of everyday camera users now want just one "gadget" for shooting both photos and videos, but "point & shoot" cameras (or even "bridge cameras" like these two models you are asking about) are a compromise when it comes to video.
My personal opinion, brand-wise, is that Fujifilm (the "Japanese Kodak") has been making cameras a lot longer than Samsung, and Fuji is generally a better choice. Samsung entered the camera market in 1995 when they bought German camera company Rollei, but isn't as well-known for quality lenses like Fuji is. I do not like the Samsung quality in their cellphone construction (owned several).
Here are some reviews, so you can make your own decision:
Fuji S2980 "Ephotozine review" (UK): http://www.ephotozine.com/article/fujifilm-finepix-s2980-digital-camera-review-20407
Samsung WB100 "Engadget review" with many user comments (US): http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/29/samsung-brings-out-wb100-camera-with-26x-lens/
Samsung WB150F "Ephotozine review" (only similar model they reviewed - UK): http://www.ephotozine.com/article/samsung-wb150f-ultra-zoom-review-18632
Samsung & Fuji "CNet side-by-side comparison" WB100 & two S4000-series & a Nikon Coolpix (similar prices): http://reviews.cnet.com/digital-cameras/samsung-wb100-red/4540-6501_7-35430119-4.html
hope this helps,
