WOWfactor, I stand by my point. There are no viruses for OS X. That isn't a virus anyway, it's a Dashboard widget installed via an exploit, and I may be wrong, but I don't thing Dashboard is closely interwoven into the OS enough for a widget to actually cause any real damage. And What The Hell Is With Typing Like This? You're using extra effort to make things more difficult and annoying to read. Are you trying to get attention? It'S aLmOsT aS aNnOyInG

I purchase my software as I would bet that 99.9% of the folks here do. I'm sorry, but I think you're being naïve and giving the general populace too much credit as a whole. Not everyone's as moral as you.
I'm pretty sure those exploits were patched, and Opener's just a malware script, not a real virus. Heh, after a quick Google search, look what I found: http://www.lindqvist.com/index.php?ID=1735 You'd have to be pretty stupid to infect yourself with that. And yes, I did hear the contest was cancelled, but I couldn't remember the details earlier a
it's the responsibility of the browser's developers to ensure full compliance. Then standards-compliance is not enough. Feel free to disagree like you always do. Happily. If the Firefox developers added support for non-standards compliant code, that would encourage people not to bother making their code sta
Valid point, Jafo, can't really argue with what you said first, but what exactly can't a Mac handle? TexasJoe: Games developpers ain't big on Macs because it's all about money: designing games for a platform that's not popular is a waste of time. I'm not saying the Mac is a strong gaming pl
I trust Apple a lot less than I trust Microsoft. I'd rather trust a company that isn't a convicted monopolist over one that is.
MAC lacks this graphics card upgradability AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. ... Wow. You clearly don't know shit about Macs. ... lacks comp
Mormegil, Dashboard is hidden from the normal desktop so it doesn't take up any CPU time while running in the background, kinda like how Aquarium Desktop apparently works with fish when they're hidden. And Bichur, you said: Maybe spellcheck doesn't come packaged with Tiger? OS X has had a
There are plenty of games for a non-hardcore gamer on the Mac, but that's not the point. Computers are for working. Buy a console.
10.1 was a free update.. And just because the version number doesn't change hugely doesn't mean the OS doesn't.
2003 Server is basically the server version of XP, except slightly newer.
is 2003 considered 'later' than XP? Well, XP is NT 5.1 and 2003 is NT 5.2, so you be the judge.
Oh, and about comparing Tiger to SP2, this taken from Anand Lal Shimpi's (anandtech.com, awesome site )review of Tiger: ... the argument that Apple charging $130 for Tiger is like Microsoft charging $130 for Service Pack 2 is quite possibly the
Vorsavhit, I agree with everything you've said. I want a Mac so bad it hurts..
I tried to do both.
Omfg, are you a moron? I've lost all patience with you now. You said there was no evidence of regression. The removal of WinFS is a prime piece of evidence.
Why argue symantecs when you know what someone means? Because you were acting like you were right about everything, which I wanted to prove wasn't the case. Explain how that i
such as? You say Judge hasn't been keeping up with the news. He clearly is, or he wouldn't have made the comments he did, which are based on things he's heard in the news, such as Microsoft dropping WinFS from Longhorn. You say that Judge hasn't seen the latest on how Microsoft wants everyone t
Apparently jeffsosta has some facts wrong.
Nothing but the best and Microsoft should not be used in the same sentence. That includes Internet Explorer, kona. </
HyperTransport is a replacement for the front-side bus, nothing to do with Hyper-Threading.

AMD chips are by no means "second rate", I'd actually say they're currently the [x86 CPU] industry leaders, looking at their success with 64 bit CPUs as compared with Intel's lack thereof.
Didn't Apple patent spring-loaded folders?
