Yeah, I just checked on my PC and saw that I am using a quicktime clone. It is basically a full featured QuickTime player with out all the junk and crippledness of the non Quicktime Pro.

Nothing to bad. Just getting around. I really don't like the program install process. It feels almost like it didn't actually install anything. I know it has a different system than Windows and I understand that the basic idea is better than the outdated 1000 dll, 10000 registry edits, and...

Um, eject a DVD when I tell it to? (joke) Support for just about every game? I've seen tons of games that are never made Mac compatible, but what was the last game released only for the Mac? Manufacturers like Blizzard are not the norm. All but some of the most popular console games were...

I've used CD drives since they first came out. I have never had a computer fail to recognize that it even had the CD-Drive installed due to inserting a disk that IS GOOD. I burned the DVD about a week ago. It runs fine in every computer I've tried it in. The Mac just doesn't like it...

It was inserted rightside up.

I'm not seeing the hole if you can.

LOL, if I had SAID my post to you, you would have known that it was sarcasim. Yeah, it was annoying that one of the simplest mechanical functions of a PC is totally lost on a Mac. That putting a disk (that should be readable, all of the other DVD's that I've put in were) into a brand new...

I can understand why it wouldn't eject a CD if a program was using it. Honestly, I wouldn't mind if the button on the front of a Windows PC didn't work if the CD was in use. But the thing that is annoying is, it never once read the CD. No program started using it, because it apparently didn't...

Point taken, but seriously...why no eject button on the CD drive?

Nm

I have a logitech keyboard that is Mac friendly. It has most of the mac commands on it. It just doesn't have an eject key. F12 for 2 seconds DOES eject CD's. It's just that my mac mini wasn't even recognizing that I had a CD drive in the thing.

Okay, apparently I had to hold the mouse button down while restarting the thing. Who thinks up these things?

I swear to God if this $#!( DVD doesn't eject in the next 20 minutes I am returning the thing to the store. I don't have an icon for the DVD on my desktop. I held down F12 for 2 seconds. I tried going into the disk utility and ejecting the volume, but there is no volume listed. I tried going...

I used to play WoW. Infact, my WoW character is what is financing me purchasing a Mac. Sold my account for $1500. I just bought a Mac Mini. I figured that it would be good enough for now and by the time it is to slow to use, a nicer intel version will be out, and by then there will be a...

I have copies of Adobe Primere Pro and Sony Vegas Studio for PC. I'd have to dig for some boxes to see if I could install either of those on a Mac from my origional disks. Most of the time I do my design on my primary PC and then will copy it over to secondary for the...

We shall see. I'll have to look at cost vs beneffit of the two options. I do do some high end stuff on my secondary PC. I have done a bit of video editing/encoding. I do use it for some intensive stuff every once in awhile. A lot of watching movies while I'm doing other stuff. Internet is...

In the past, when I've tried using PS2 to USB converters on the PC end with my KVM it works fine untill I switch to another computer. It doesn't like emulating the mouse/keyboard when using the converters, so the PC thinks that you just ripped the mouse/keyboard out of the sockets.

Short answer = no. Slipstreaming a windows CD requires not just getting an image, but you have to run executables that will modify/patch the install files. I doubt this could be done on a Mac without some sort of emulation going on. Now, if you got the OS files slipstreamed on a windows PC...

I swear I must be speaking Greek or something. I say what I'm looking for and what I want to do and I get a bunch of replies that totally ignore it, down talk to me like I'm an idiot, and then tell me the "RIGHT" way to do things which is pretty much what I said I wanted to do in the first...

This is great. When I came in here I was fully intending on buying a Mac and using it a lot. Thats part of why I don't know which system to get. I don't think I truly need to get the iMac just to learn Macs, but the Mac Mini is a certain downgrade from what I want to replace in my current...
