  1. Re:Business Plan on Safari And KHTML May Never Meet · · Score: 1

    Do you realize how many years Apple has been using that "free" source for from BSD? Try since the 80's. It's not like they just looked at BSD in 2001 and decided to build an OS on top of it. Plus, you act as if Darwin isn't wholly an Apple project. It is.

    Are you going to whine at Dave for helping kick off the Firefox project too?

    There's only so much he can do. He can't code for Safari and merge all of his changes back into KHTML for them while he's at it.

    How many hours would it have taken you to write the two patches from scratch?

  4. Re:Fullscreen Trailer is only for ITunes users on Batman Begins Trailer Released · · Score: 1

    Microsoft would never host a lot of content and let users leach it unless they got paid for it (Xbox Live *cough*). You're forgetting that Microsoft is the same company that was too cheap to pay for Helvetica and instead had someone knock it off as Arial.

    What is the huge difference between Mac OS X and the OS X GUI on Linux?

    Unix underpinnings? Check.
    Awesome GUI? Check.

    Why didn't they sue Sun over Java 1.5 Tiger?

    Is it still a blog when the author is drunk on whine?

    Yes, everything really was worked out in that thread.

    Zack Rusin just seems like a persistent whiner.

    I don't know. That sounds like he's whining that Apple doesn't merge the code back for them.

    Apple provides KHTML with all of their code. Asking for a whole lot more than that is just being lazy/greedy.

    Why didn't you read the whole thread? Everything was worked out in the end.

    You didn't link to the conclusion. The thread goes on for a few messages after the message you linked to.

    Apple feeds their improvements back to KHTML after the Safari version they appear in is public.

    No, the "under-configured piece of shit" is usually whatever random Wintel box that lamers compare to excellently equipped Power Macs.

    You can't just fix your mac a piece at a time if it fails right?
    No, you can. Why would you think otherwise? You can even repair an Imac by yourself in piece meal if you want to.

    The problem is that you're a fuckwad comparing a nice PowerMac to an under-configured piece of shit.

    You act like there is something special about RAM from Apple since you seem unwilling to buy it from elsewhere.

    And when the fuck did Apple call it a workstation?

  21. Re:Only 512MB RAM? on Apple Updates Power Mac Line · · Score: 1

    No, it shouldn't. They should include small amounts of RAM and keep the price low and if you want more RAM you can buy more RAM either pre-installed by Apple or from any other source.

    I bought my PowerMac G5 with 1GB stick pre-installed by Apple because they had a good deal going on at the time.

  22. Re:Only 512MB RAM? on Apple Updates Power Mac Line · · Score: 1

    There is no low-end PowerMac. If you want a low-end computer, get the Mac Mini, Emac, or Imac.
