"A teen who wanted an Apple Macintosh computer (Mac) for Christmas after seeing one of the ubiquitous apple ads on the apple website, but instead got to inherit his father’s older Windows PC, finally got mad early Saturday morning and threw out the inherited Dell PC out of the window in a bizarre case of life imitating 'the internet world,'" hipFOX reports.
hipFOX reports, "The 16 year old boy, Dam Enkhbayar, threw out the computer after it froze while he was downloading video files online. The boy said, 'If this had been a Macintosh, I would never have had this problem.'"

MacDailyNews Take: We only advise throwing Dells and other Windows PCs out of windows in cases where you are 100% sure that nobody will be hurt (as always, send your videos to ). As Dam Enkhbayar is from Ulan Bator, the capital of Mongolia, where the population nearly 1 million, the old "out the window with that Dell" might not have been the greatest idea. That said, we are intimately familiar with how Windows frustration can drive people at least temporarily insane. We recommend that Windows sufferers first count to ten and then make use of the Apple Recycling Program: Apple will take any old PC (or Mac) and recycle it for free when you buy a new Mac - no matter where you live.

Too bad the kid didn't make a video of this.
That would have been great.
