Apple has to specifically go out of their way in order to keep MacOS from running on such a machine. I seriously doubt this is true. More likely they simply use an unsupported instruction in the start up code.
I seriously doubt that they are actively checking for the Atom processor. More likely an efficiency cut in the code has left out something that the Atom needs to initialize properly. Or possibly the Hackintosh crowd have a bug in their installer that messes this up.
Nope since it never officially existed it can't actually be killed. So it should work officially as good with the Atom processor as it officially ever did.
How does one actually officially Kill something that one never officially had? And any other company would get pretty much the same treatment as Apple if they didn't actually have the support that they um "officially killed" at least on/.
I've seen the "evidence" and it just does not add up to a fact. "Biological things change and the better things sometimes stay around" is the observable fact. I've also seen "Generally things tend to mutate to adapt to their environment" if the change is gradual enough. "Evolution" is one explanation for this fact. "Evolution" is not the fact it's just one name for it. We thought that it was a fact that people like to have sex to keep the species going too but the Shakers disproved that fact.
There are an entire class of people hanging in lockers and with their underwear pulled around their necks that would swear there was an anti-intellectual bent in this country.
Well there was a good reason for that, literally half the country was waiting for Bush's impeachment. But Olberman never preached HATE the way the Fox network has. I'm just waiting for the first person to be killed and for the killer to give Limbaugh's proclamation of the left's march to socialism, or Beck's proclamation of President Obama's hatred of white people as his excuse.
Wow and that never happened in the previous administration to people that disagreed with their ideologues. Still don't make it right but I happen to agree with most of what he (the one who called Beck a traitor) said not necessarily the traitor part but Beck skirts that pretty close at times..
Yes, hatred of the beloved B/L/F should be quashed as quickly as possible. but I do look for a certain level of intellectual honest(y)(sic) on/. and this makes you somehow more trustworthy and worthy of our consideration? Beck/Limbaugh/Fox "News Network" peddle fiction as "News" and expect us to kowtow to their insane crap. If they ever checked a fact before spewing it onto the public stage I would have a slight bit more respect for them. The fact that there are that many people out there that watch and believe this drivel saddens me no end.
Yes, but I'm not a public figure. I'd thank the person for my 15 minutes, let the police investigate to their heart's content and then move on with my life. If they found evidence that this indeed did happen I'd defend myself through all legal means.
Sorry if I gave you the impression that I'm a creationist, I'm not. I'm an empiricist. Big difference. Devil's advocate or maybe just a bit dense when it comes to people that make blanket statements of fact that have not been fully vetted by experiment. I find that evolution is the best theory that fits current observed behavior, but I don't accept "evolution" as a fact, merely an observed effect of nature and I believe that evolution is the agency. A theory that an observed incident fits to a T is not in my mind yet a fact. It is however the best theory of how things got made in a biological sense and therefore far better than myth and speculation.
"confirmed to such a degree that it would be perverse to withhold provisional assent."
Does not a fact make, it merely confirms that an observable event has taken place and to deny that would be perverse. I suppose that "the behavior was observed" could be considered the fact. So at least as far as that is concerned I'll accept that it is both.
Why? God put that stuff there and then made it all come together to form life. You can't debunk a myth as powerful as this when you have a God that is omniscient and omnipotent it just can't be done, faith will rationalize any argument you present into the ground. Blind Faith by it's nature is unbeatable. You anti-creationists just need to sit back and wait for a creationist to die and then say "told you so" but um wait... that won't work either. I guess we're hosed no matter what we discover. Can't win, can't break even, can't even quit the game.

I like the shit load of money part. Apple stock has been good to a lot of us.
Wow why go to all that trouble. Just get an Apple computer and you can run actual OS X.
Nope since it never officially existed it can't actually be killed. So it should work officially as good with the Atom processor as it officially ever did.

Oh that, it's just his fondest wish if Beck himself can be believed!

Have you actually watched the show. I'd have used worse terms but those will do.
Probably MSNBC. They paint with them all the time, of course it could have been he just picked it up off the floor at Fox too.

George Lucas got it right!

Sorry but evolution is a theory not a fact. Get your facts right if you expect to get any where.
Ahh piss on it, they won't care anyway, no alcahol involved.
Not true, facts are facts, they just don't believe that the facts add up to the same conclusion you do.
