where were you before I tried it!? ;)

oh my, it's horrible.

chornbe, first clue that you were dealing with a "genius" was that he went from notebooks straight over to desktops. Not saying anything crude, but I'd walked away as soon as he stated "You can't upgrade that notebook." Duh. Anyway, if Torvaldes is on the PPC environment, like said...

If so... about time.

He's an idiot because he has some grievances against the OS? Wow. I should go hunt down Jakob Nielson then based on that criteria.

I have two, had three. I've upgraded the CPU, the RAM, the video card, the hard drive, about to upgrade the VRM and probably tap out at 1.6ghz here soon enough. I've changed the case on one to the all-aluminum Powerlogix "supercube" case, but kept the other one in the stock case. And I've...

Oh, I didn't take it as you were cutting my experience, not at all. Just stating things from the other side of the fence. Security on Windows - a big, popular target - is just a full-time job.

I don't think some people do, quite honestly.

Who exactly is the troll?

You say this like I don't have experience. I managed 270 servers for 6 years... 260 were windows, 5 were Mac Xserves, 4 were Sun, 1 HP UX machine. And still no viruses (virii?) within the network until a week after I left that company... I'm not talking about your rank novice. If that's...

although I run Mac mostly here, I also run PC's... haven't had a virus since the MonkeyB virus in '92 or '93. Some users just are idiots. The computer doesn't mean a thing. In fact, I know a few Mac users that in their rush to avoid 10.0 - the MacOS 9.x hardcore anti-dock types are the...

or C... since MacOSX is BSD based, you have to have authentication in order to install damn near anything. Not so in Windows.

ok, I'll add to your conspiracy... but this one might make more sense. Microsoft didn't invent spyware, but they're about to license out MS Windows licenses for spyware to all of these dubious companies out there. How? Let me tell you how. Via Microsoft's acquisition of Giant, they now...

Wow. The lack of humor above is amazing. Calm down. This is what is commonly called satire...

No. More like you smell Apple trying to fatten the bottom line and try to expand the iPod "halo" effect. Good luck to Apple.

Surprised that nobody has reported that not only will Target not sell the Mac Mini, it seems as if Best Buy will be selling them... Target's citing something about "supply issues", yet Best Buy is going to carry it? Sounds very fishy to me. Oh well. You guys can get back to arguing about...

now if only a 2gb stick of RAM would fit and register. somebody confirm that, and I'm all in it.

yeah. definitely can't have that.

Well, IBM actually *does* have a Linux OS but have yet to release it to the masses. I'd love to see Eclipse, Linux, and the rest of the tools optimized for the Power5/Cell architecture. Or MacOSX on Cell too. Parts of what I've read thus far impresses me the most about Cell is the bus...

I'd doubt this one. No third party produced the G4 Cube external power supply either. And with that said... it's probably much like the G4 Cube. You'll have to order an extra power supply via part number to AppleCare.
