| Sorry for a EXTREMELY late reply. I had gone on a trekking trip. I'm not yet fit-enough to climb Mount Everest, so just went to the lower base camps.
Anyway, some reply to the previous points, pluse some more questions (Again, please give me detailed answers to the questions asked below, you can also provide me links for further reading - I'm looking for a detailed answer - please take your time):
1. I don't want customisation in looks. Why anyone would want to change the looks of the Mac is beyond me...
What I meant by customisation was in the way things work. Didn't Mr Jobs say that design is how it works and not how it looks like or feels like?
My Windoze friend said this in e-mail:
"you start up the computer ...and you get tired of that same old look!!?? download a nice theme which is found in a numerous amount in internet you search for you love and just apply it..wanna start PS and apply cool effects?? again just search plugin from the net and apply it..wanna play games?? just burn the image file in the virtual drive and start playing...again tired of the games same feeling..why not download MOD and experience whole new game...know you system well?? why not edit the registry and create you own little tweak?? need a upgrade in graphics card?? just open up the CPU casing and slot it on..same goes for CPU harddisk..or any other parts..
got the customization part??..I kno Mac has got some customisation too..but it's no match for Windows!!"
What reply would you give to above?
2. Why is OS X limited on Macs? Some of my anti-Mac friends say this is a "monopolistic behaviour of Apple".
3. What is the average boot time of a Mac? How much time would a iBook G3 with 900 MHz proccy, 512 MB RAM take time to load Leopard? What would be the average time on the current Mac models?
4. How fast is OS X? How does it compare with other OSes?
5. How is multi-tasking in OS X? The Mac users I've seen generally have more apps open than the users of other platform. Is this just a coincidence or is the multi-tasking really better than on other platforms.
6. What are other things that sets the Mac apart from others?
(Thanks for the replies, btw)  |
