Why is it that apple owners think that any thing made by apple is magically better than any thing else made by other venders?
A Xeon is a workstation/server process but it is still standard off the shelf component. So are all the parts that a mac of any type is made of. There is not nothing special in any mac book or mac pro.
In fact looking at the specs for the mac pro cylinder, these parts are mostly from 2013. Not only is there nothing special here, these are all "old" parts. The high end mac pro is still supporting a PCI 2.0 bus.
If you want to pretend that macs are magically better than PC"s because they have a magic apple on them, then fine. But from the specs and hardware point of view they are nothing more than high end PC's. Over priced PC's.
You get what you pay for. If you buy cheap crap then you will get performance like cheap crap. But with that being said I have looked at the hardware that modern macs run on. That is basically the same standard hardware that a PC runs on.
Xeon processors
DDR3/DDR4 RAM
ATI Graphics Card
Intel MB Chips
There is no "magic" mac hardware. A mac is basically a high end PC with a different OS slapped on top of it.
Then as true today, you can build a PC running Windows or Linux that will outperform a Mac for half the cost.
I see no problem with this. That is how American political system works. Each of us makes our choice and votes for it. I also agree that there should have been a much better choice that Trump.
Well if anything good has come out of this shit fest, it seems more people are more aware of 3rd party candidates. So maybe one day......
Isn't that the truth. The DNC brought this on themselves. If they had fielded any other candidate they would have wiped the floor with Trump last night. Bernie Sanders comes to mind. If they hadn't been so keen on sinking his campaign they might be celebrating instead of crying today.
This would be one of the biggest reasons I didn't vote for her. "It's Her turn." The sense of entitlement that Hillary had for the Whitehouse, like it was her destiny to ascend to the throne or something. To put it bluntly, she needed to be put in her place.
Before all you women get your panties in a wad, i'm not against a woman president. I do believe its time for a woman president, just not that one. I would have voted for Condlisa Rice in a heart beat.
They don't bother to tell you the end of the story where that guy goes peddling off into the thunderstorm. He rides to the end of the drive way and gets hit by lightning.
Moral of the story. Your phone maybe waterproof, but riding a fucking thunderstorm with lightning is a stunningly stupid idea.
Funny this is. My family and friends we have all tried to use things like kix, hangouts, and skype to sent messages on our phones to each other. We always go back to the built in SMS app on our phones. Some of us install a 3rd party sms app like chomp, but basically its just good old SMS at its heart.
I don't want messages popping up on all my devices. If I'm using my tablet to read I don't a message getting shoved in my face. My phone dings and I get around to it in my own time. If it's really important they call me.
Call me ignorance, that is a laugh. You where the one that doesn't know what a domain controller is.
Dude, mixing in iphones, ipads and macs only? That is a walled garden. That is the exact example of one. One where one set of devices made by on manufacture interact with each other by specifications set by said manufacture. In this case apple. That is the exact definition of a walled garden.
Microsoft Active Directory (AD) service is usually what a DC is running. AD back bone is LDAP, to put it simply. Basically a LDAP server could be called a 'domain controller' as it serves the same function as a DC.
Just to correct your assessment. You should have said "Macs and Linux machines don't have to be plugged in to a DC". This would be correct, and nether do Windows machines. Depending on the size of the environment these machines do need be plugged in to a DC.
If you have a only a handful of machines, say less than 20, then its fine to go along with out a DC. But even in this environment its better to have one. In a medium or large organization having a DC forest set up is essential. I would almost say required.
Since you do not work in IT this would be a good thing. Please do not move into this field, less people will hate you in life and I doubt you would be happy there.
Okay, I'm going to assume you are not working in IT since you don't know what a domain controller (DC) is. If you are working in IT, you should find some other line of work.
Yes, Mac and other computers, need to be plugged into a DC just like any windows box in a working environment. I'm sitting 5 feet from a mac on a DC just like all the windows and Linux boxes in this organization. Modern computer administration is all about central management of resources. And that is usually done from a domain controller.
What I find is when people are trying to get "real work" done on a Mac in a "production" environment they are usually doing that work in a VM running Windows. I wonder if they took the cost of having to maintain Windows in side a Mac as apart of their analyst?

How about adding a headphone jack to it?
It works exactly as it was designed. The purpose of the college is to protect the rest of us from crazy states like California.
And some of us might give more of a damn about their feelings.
Hell no. One racist president a 100 years is enough.
I have this motherboard and i7-6700K. Very nice, very fucking nice.

Oh go blow it out your ass.
They got within 5 miles of the intended target. From here to mars that is a bulls eye. They should get points for that.

Don't you just love it when a Mac user losses their shit when you drag them out of the wall garden of appleness and put them in the real world?
That there is a very valid point.
What I find is when people are trying to get "real work" done on a Mac in a "production" environment they are usually doing that work in a VM running Windows. I wonder if they took the cost of having to maintain Windows in side a Mac as apart of their analyst?
Yeah, I saw that coming.
Because other than the misspelling they are correct.
You shouldn't get strung out over grammer and spelling mistakes. English is not always the first language of the posters here.
Horse hockey. Its horrible deal. You pay 600+ bucks for device with a dangerous known manufactures defect? Bullshit!
Here is a better deal. Full reimbursement for cost of the device, period.
Well, the primary choices are Orange Hitler and Grandma Nixon.. it sucks
Oh that brought tears to my eyes. I've not laughed so hard in a while. good job.
The republicans have the same structure, but did not give their superdelegates enough power to override the crazy train.
You know, I don't think I have seen a better or more accurate term for what we are watching. Good job.
I just wish we had George Carin around for this. At lease we would get a good laugh out of it.
