TrueType Fonts? Who invented them again? Apple or Adobe..I know that much.... Sorry, just reminding you that even if you hate Macs, they're responsible for just about every development in the computer industry, for had apple failed, IBM wouldn't have made any PCs, now would they? And what OS would there be to rip off for windows95? (Innovation my foot!) Sorry. Mac Rant. LinuxPPC 5.0 Will RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!
True, but don't stats start over after DES-III, like they did with DES-II? Meaning that any close lead you have to them will be lost after the DES-III contest. Macintosh Computers have PowerPC processors, not suited for DES-III, but for RC5. I know a lot of Mac Users just skip the DES and save up the RC-5 blocks, waiting for the contest to end (in this case, >=2 days) and just let loose. That'll basically give them an advantage.
Oh, and if you think MacOS isn't for those of us who like to hack (in the old school reference) then deal with this fact: We're #1, and 36% of the Blocks submitted from D.net are macs....
Now if Apple would just bundle the D.net Client with the iMac.........
