and That put your opinion in perspective. AppleWorks is about $80 the last time I checked. And as someone who has done more than just opened up AppleWorks one time, I would say it is a pretty good program for the money. Of course Microsoft Office would also be pretty good at $80, but at...

That must be what I was thinking of, but it is way before I knew of macosx.com so I never saw that thread before... cool that there are screen shots of it. :D I didn't remember the price being so far off though, I was giving them the benefit of just being off by a factor of 10. The real thing...

Actually that isn't Nuff said. I've never heard these claims. Where does Apple say it has either universal or near universal support for printers? I have always looked for supported printers, and would never just grab any old printer from say... CompUSA, and expect it to just work. If you can...

I seem to remember CompUSA selling Mac OS X for $1,290. As I recall it had a system requirement of a Pentium 3 or higher. This latest ad is not surprising.

Apple can only include drivers licensed to them from the makers of the printers. You should learn the difference between problems caused by Apple and problems cause by other third party venders, it would help make sure you direct your rants to the correct places (in other words, not Apple in the...

For some people the grass is always greener on the other side. Switching from Macs to PCs to Macs chasing what ever they seem to think they are missing out on. They see people happy with something different than what they have and want to change. Unless you have some real reason of your...

There is a registration code for Mac OS X Server 10.x.x though. :rolleyes: You may want to point out to the person who bought your CDs that they are going to need a Mac to run them (if they're asking about registration codes, they may not have ever even seen a Mac before).

:( I wonder what he meant by that? :rolleyes: Anyway, could someone pass me the shovel and bucket, I'm going to make a big sand castle right over here. :D

Hey, a friend of mine had this problem once. As it turned out he hadn't seeded the daughter card back into the logic board correctly... the system didn't see any RAM or processor to work with. Best way to test if the card is in is to see how hard it is to pull it out. If it comes out easily...

Yeah, stay on topic people! I'm still waiting to hear how that $400 Dell did with the real world tests I suggested. :D

GulGnu, I've used Photoshop on a Mac. I've used Photoshop on a PC. It is better on a Mac. When Photoshop is open on a PC it takes over the whole screen. What about the other apps running in the background? Why even have desktop pictures (sorry, wallpapers) on a PC? Once you open any app they...

Maybe I missed that one. How fast did the $400 Dell boot Mac OS X? What were the render times for web pages with OmniWeb 4.1 on the $400 Dell? And here is a good one I would like to know, was Sherlock faster than Watson while running them on the $400 Dell? I just want to see some real world...

Where did someone say that everyone should use Macs? Or PowerBooks? Or iBooks? In a Mac forum, the discussion is going to get Mac-centric, but I don't know of any Mac users who go to PC forums to tell them to use Macs. I got an idea, maybe we can all realize that pushing PCs in a Mac forum...

My second friend has jumped to Windows for the games. For a second time the Windows systems couldn't work with the games/graphics cards. So now my friends are stuck with systems that on paper look great but can't actually do anything. Funny having them come over to my place so they can see games...

I'm sorry, but I think I heard some where that that benchmarking thing was fixed. When I compared my lowly iMac against my friends PC I couldn't get the PC to do anything using Mac OS X. :D Even if he had an 8 GHz PC system it wouldn't make any difference because when running in Mac OS X...

Oh... like I said, it was just a thought. It is just amazing how some people spend so much time and energy hating and using products from what is just a company. Once I dislike something I just tend to leave it alone instead of spending a ton of time around that product. Is there a name for...

So I was thinking, why don't we have a forum dedicated to self-hating Mac users? Generally, this site seems to have some great info on it that is truly helpful. But there is also more than enough posts by Mac users who don't luv Apple, their software, their hardware, their board members, or...

Okay, did I miss the boat here? Since when were some of these apps free? They may have been bundled with systems or software, but iMovie is not a free app ($49.00), AppleWorks is not free ($79.00), and iDVD is not free ($19.95). AppleWorks was free with a bundle of software with some iMacs, but...

Hi, this is going to sound like a dump question, but here it goes: Why do you have to use iPhoto? Why don't you just use Image Capture to get the pics from your camera and some other apps like PixelNhance to work with them once you have them? I use Image Capture, PixelNhance, Curator (same...

Sorry, I have to ask... a download of what?
