It's a stupid image that was created by a Mac fan to point out that Mac just werks, whereas Windows is a messy shit that constantly breaks.
Then a Windows fan made an edit (the second frame in the GIF) because PCs (the hardware) can be fixed easily when something breaks, but with a Mac trying to open it is near impossible for a layman.
Bike fag here just for back from a 50k Sunday ride for fun. The picture really bugs me as a bicycle is more customizable then a motorbike in some ways and vice versa. Also bikes are faster then motorbikes in city traffic.
Well apple is a dumpster fire for homos so it doesn't make me feel anything really. Apple and Windows are equal.
How retarded a person should be to consider those the same category?
normies dont understand how these things work, to them its just a black box; you type things and things appear on screen.
In 99% of conversations, "Mac" refers to a computer running Mac OS. The operating system is typically (not always, but nearly always) seen as an integral part of the Apple Experience(tm).
In a lot of contexts, especially the one of the original ad, "PC" refers to "a computer running Microsoft Windows". It also works as a broader term for all personal computers, or as a term for IBM PC clones, or as a term for their descendants, or as any of a bunch of other meanings. Too bad - turns out words can have multiple meanings. Who knew? In this context, it clearly refers to "a computer running Microsoft Windows", and anyone who knows at least a little about computers and isn't autistic as hell is going to understand that.
Since this is an advertisement, you want to convince people to buy Macs, even if your argumentation is technically about software and not about hardware. Pitting "Mac" versus "PC" is therefore the sensible choice. "Mac OS" versus "Windows" wouldn't be as effective.
Now, technically, "Mac" refers to "Computer running Mac OS", and "PC" refers to "Computer running Microsoft Windows", so instead of "Linux" it should say "Computer running Linux" in order to be consistent. But that kills the presentation, and since anyone who isn't autistic as hell will get what it means anyway, it says "Linux" instead.
Sometimes terms have multiple acceptable meanings. Sometimes meanings get stretched a bit for the sake of presentation, especially in areas like advertising where presentation is extremely important. That doesn't mean that the people choosing those terms are retarded - it just means they know how to organize their priorities.
This. The original image (which is very inaccurate btw) was made for plebs assuming that people do not know anything under the hood. Hence the mac has one on-off switch and pc cannot conceal their junk. It has nothing to do with repair-ability, showing not having to repair (thus not knowing anything under the hood) is a good thing. In that sense the pic related is the better version.
Now if you talk about freedom in those pictures. That's another thing. BTW, those pictures are about hardware not software. So the background logo is wrong (but not too wrong since majority PC uses windows).
The differences between Apple-branded PCs and Microsoft-branded PCs was rather rather insubstantial. The biggest difference was the software. One was total shit, and the other was a BSD distro. But both restricted users in the same way.
GNU/Linux runs well on practically all PCs with the Microsoft logos on them, as well as PCs with the Apple logos on them. But, most importantly, GNU/Linux doesn't treat users as hostile. Most BSD distros respect users too. Systems like MacOS X and JunOS are exceptions.

There was as much difference in hardware as there was in software historically. The major difference now is you cannot replace CPU and RAM (until recently) in macs. Only HDD. In PCs you can replace graphics card, SMPS, drives, fans etc. almost anything you can imagine.
