Thank god my parents have a Mac. I'm reading these horror stories and I am cringing thinking if I had to support a PC for the P's... I do support one for a friend, and my god what a clusterf**k. The're going to Mozilla for good.
I'm 25. I wish they sold cable ala carte. I'd have only a few channels:
Discovery Channel - MONSTER GARAGE!!!
Cartoon Network - need I say why?
Comedy Central
ESPN - sports
2,5,7,9,32 - for the rest of the sporting events
everything else sucks.
Whoa, is Legend of the Red Dragon playable through the internet and telnet??? I actually *own* this for my old BBS. I'd like to play. Is there a server somewhere that someone knows about? Go Renegade BBS!
Oh Man. FlAC support Rocks. How freakin hard would it be to add it to the iPod??? My one gripe about digital music would be smashed. Lossless compression is KING. Now my Phish live downloads don't have to be re-compressed. So do I sell my iPod now?
I bought my 867 G4 last year, December. I have ran OSX on this thing full time. I love it. I'm getting so used to OSX, that I don't think I could live without it. But here are my gripes:
You ever run OS 9 on one of these newer G4s? WOW. I mean the computer feels like it's going faster than a crack addict's heart beat. Of course I am swiftly reminded that a crack addicts heart beat stops quite often, resulting in some sort of crash.
iPhoto and iTunes are slow as shit. I have 40GB of Mp3s stored on a drive for iTunes, and it takes quite some time to load up. I wont even mention how it feels to run iPhoto with a couple thousand pictures. but hey, you can't do iPhoto on OS9, and iTunes would probably suck as much with a 40GB library.
I have felt that OSX has grown with the new releases, just we're not all the way there yet. Dont get me wrong, I love it, etc., etc., but it's not exactly the fastest feeling OS. I attribute most of the problem to latency in opening menus and click responses. Speed that up and the OS feels 1000000000x faster.
yeah.
Am I the only one that bought the Cowboy Beebop DVD set because of Adult Swim? I dont think so. I'm a big fan of random anime. Too bad I don't get cartoon network now that I'm out of college...
Damn college kids get it all.
