wow! this is amazing! hehe i get my PowerBook soon! w00t! i cant wait for panther though have to get it just before
oh well maybe the X-Mas or Birthday fairy will bless me!
Morse: Thanks for the clearup, seems like macs has come a long way since I last tried one with like, under 50mb of RAM, maybe I ought to try one sometime.
You really should …
esp w/ OSX, which is now the most stable and versatile OS on theee planet … basically it’s another flavor of UNIX
…I find that most detractors are in that class not unlike the guys that put the stickers of that kid peeing on the other brand - most of whom are barely likely to qualify for an opinion much less criticism :sure:
Heh, i like the stickers of the guy peeing on stuff.
I’ve got nothing against macs. I just don’t like them cause they can’t do what I use computers for. They’ve only got about a dozen good games you can play. Plus, I’m just so windows oriented, that I prob. couldn’t use them. Gates has me for life I think.
the Calvin stickers. i usually see those on the backs of people’s car windows and stuff.
:beam: Yeah he’s a cute lil’ guy and funny too, but methinks that most pipples that put him there know next to nothing about the product they are dissing - and only do it because all there buds say so…
…that was my pernt
:!: And so the belGatesabub owns you
… I know not and care not for games so can’t personally vouch for it there (tho I’ve heard contrary)… admittedly would be less than windows but “12” sounds a bit exagerated
but…whatever floats yer boat =)
I’ve got a Macintosh SE “super drive” left over from the war. Old but cute. Mighty cute. :bandit:
Those black and white one-piece mac units were fun… The ones where you could type faster than they could display the words…
Never got the entire “OS X” thing, why can’t they just name it simple, like, 98, 20000, or 2003???
Or XP, or NT, or ME or something…
X = 10 in roman numerals
OS X = OS 10
Not very hard to figure out as Mac OS HAs gone from one through nine before the release of OS X.
Easy peasy.

i love the flame wars…

laters!

I have nothing against Macs… It looks to be a nice computer. I would like to try Video Editing on one, but alas I can not justify dropping $2k on a Mac just to try it out… Ahh well all you mac users have fun with it.
Cheers!

I’m gonna stay away form your fancy “Roman Numerals,” I like numbers better.
I shouldn’t hope Flash MX on Win XP is giving you any trouble.

For those who havent seen this already
http://www.haxial.com/spls-soapbox/apple-powermac-G5/
kind of discouraging :-\ then again Im not at all surprised.
Some of the mail at the bottom is funny
Wow Sen, that kind of takes the wind out some Mac sales eh…
bull**** hes no mac user…
i agree with mario fan, i doubt they would lie like that, cause they could get false advertising up there butt.
Actually. The G5’s aren’t actually ‘faster’ than the better PC’s.
I wouldn’t know why, but to me, Brett Larson’s word is law. And he said it.
Oops. Didn’t see the link already saying as much.
Brett said it just after it was announced. So yeah. I knew first!!!

They arent really lying - they’re just trying to make things look good in their favor. Everyone does it - there was even that recent broo-ha-ha about the Nvidia tests and how they were ‘rigged’ or whatever.
When companies try to make themselves look good with specs, they’ll try to make themselves look good.
