    Vista's Security..the honeymoon's OVER!

    General Software is software, isn't it? The reason I made my posts in the 'General Software' catagory is because I was under the impression OS's were software related? Aren't they? I'm not bashing you or any one because they are hobbyists, I was simply stating my opinion on Vista security. I...

    Vista's Security..the honeymoon's OVER!

    Missing the point! I acknowledge that a lot of people like to tinker with computers, but still, they are only a tiny percentage of the computing public. The vast majority of Window users have no desire to thinker with their machines. Second point: people in this forum keep refering to games...

    Vista's Security..the honeymoon's OVER!

    It wouldn’t matter if you could build or assemble a super-duper computer for a measly buck, what’s the point; in the end you still couldn’t run OSX legally. Yes, Apple hardware is a little more expensive and we Mac users admit we would dearly love to be able to assemble our own boxes, but...

    Vista's Security..the honeymoon's OVER!

    Wrong! Wrong! Check out the new Mac-Pro (http://www.apple.com/macpro/) and then tell me if your box can out perform it? It can't, for one reason it is the only computer with the new 8-core 3 gigabyte Xeon... you can't buy, let alone build one. As the most impressive cpu out there I doubt...

    Vista's Security..the honeymoon's OVER!

    Emulation, who needs emulation on a MAC? As for games on the Mac, emulation is not is required. Games have and are being PORTED to the Mac without emulation! If a game runs natively at 100% speed, how can you call that emulation? After all, even though most of the American population resides...

    Ha, ha, the link is a Total FAKE! QUOTE=moon111;13386]Or maybe not. http://www.zdnet.com.au/news/security/soa/mac-os-x-hacked-under-30-minutes/0,130061744,139241748,00.htm Regarding the zdnet.com article, it is not only old news; it's a TOTAL FAKE! Zd Net should be ashamed of them...

    American record companies at their best...

    Yes, but aren't most American record companies owned by the big four, all but one based in Europe. THe other being, of course, Sony which is, in fact, half owned by European interests.

    Vista's Security..the honeymoon's OVER!

    VISTA SECURITY, The Honeymoon’s OVER! Looks like the honeymoon is over for Vista’s so-called superior security. Bill Gate, on Vista’s introduction, said that the Mac’s security was bombarded every single day with critical security attacks, but you could never do such a thing with Vista’s...

    If Mac OS was offered on PC, would you buy?

    Think again about Mac video cards! It is true that Apple itself only gives Mac users the choice of a few different video cards, especially on the all-in-one machines, but the Mac PRO will take any video card that runs on Intel hardware. All-in-one machines like the iMac and Mini can, of...

    If Mac OS was offered on PC, would you buy?

    OSX a security risk, you got to be kidding? OSX a security risk, you got to be kidding? OSX is built on Unix, just like Linux and is highly recommended by the US government as a very secure system. After a full six years of use there has yet to be one system that has been reported infected...

    If Mac OS was offered on PC, would you buy?

    Windows Games on a Mac, absolutely! Window's games on a Mac, why of course, my good man. First, you could always boot into Windows or use Parralell's, Cross Over or VMWare solutions, but then again, thanks to Trans Gaming out of Toronto, the full-range of Window Games will be available soon...

    If Mac OS was offered on PC, would you buy?

    Yes, of course, OSX on a PC! Of course I would buy OSX if it was available on a PC the way Michael Dell dreams of. As a user of OSX for the past six years and running all five major flavors of OSX from Cheetah to Tiger, the system is so simple and intuitive that I buy it if it was on a...

    XP or Vista

    XP or Vista? The real question should be: Linux or OSX. However, if I was forced to use Windows I definitely would prefer XP. Better the flaws that you know then the ones you don't. Yes, Vista is pretty. But sadly, its also pretty slow, buggy, and demands too much of a premium in...

    If Mac OS was offered on PC, would you buy?

    One button mice... were have you been? As a Mac and Linux user I must ask: when it comes to the one-button Mac mouse, where have you been? Multi-buttoned mouse support comes built-into Mac OSX and all Apple mice are now multi-buttoned even though they look one-buttoned. Personally I use...

    System Mechanic and Windows Vista

    Sorry, I meant to post it on another part of forum! Sorry, I meant to post this on another part of the forum but I was having trouble posting it. Not sure why, but I tried it here and it worked! I didn't think it would, but it did. Why did it not work any where else, I really don't know? I'm...

    System Mechanic and Windows Vista

    Vista... Been there, done that! As a mostly Mac user, regarding Vista, all I can say is, "Been there, Done that!" I have been using Vista a year before LongHorn was ever annouced, it was called Mac OSX. Mind you, the early version known by the code name 'Cheetah' performed more like it...

    Anyone using Opera?

    Like you, I find Opera to be a great browser. Since my main OS is OSX Tiger, I find Omniweb to be the best of the best, even though Safari is now my main browser. I like the private browsing feature and since it is based on Konquer it is very stable. Shiira, the new open source Japanese...
