I remember how they priced their first computers. If Apple had their way, we'd be paying $6500 for a personal computer.  

Funny how Apple is the "antiestablishmentarianism" darling.  They're an example of the dark side of capitalism.  They deserve to fail miserably.  Too bad they found a profitable product in the music player thingy.   I'll never own one.

Well, Numberz... you have to remember that most of the guys posting here don't have a Mac with OSX or Tiger, so they don't know what they're talking about. But that has never stopped this crowd  - they'll gladly give you their opinion about books they've never read or movies they've never seen, too.

HTC chose to use DirectX for video and not porting to Mac is understandable, based on that choice.

Sure, Apple has gotten a little behind in processor speed; that's why they are moving to Intel chips. The notebooks will be first to move. All indications so far are that you will be able to dual install Windows on an Intel-based Mac. But, you won't be able to install a Mac OS on a Windows machine.

I don't think you're going to be happy with any PC emulators. You might be better off putting that money into either a PC, or an Intel-based Mac next year. Aces High runs great even on Win98SE.

And just so you know, I'm a satisified, paying customer with a PC just for this game. There isn't anything I can't do better and easier with my Mac and Tiger OS. Good luck with whichever path you decide to take.

Oh puh-LEAZE rolex.. I've been using OSX and Tiger for a long time now, for work and video editing and sound editing. You want to know the NUMBER ONE reason mac sucks?

Because every Macintosh is MADE by Macintosh.... You *CAN'T* just go out and buy a Dell, a Gateway, a fill-in-the-blank MAC with OSX on it. You CAN'T because they don't allow them to, from the way I understand it. If maybe they had concentrated on making the OS more of an OS (secondary to the machine itself) then for one we'd have better hardware for the MAC, we'd have better hardware support, we'd have a better more stable OS (it wasn't til they stretched into unix that they became stable, and it still crashes more in one week than my PC did in the past 5 years).

The reason MAC is and will always fail is because they only sell all-in-one packages. And those packages SUCK. If they would branch out into hardware AND software, and keep the two separate, the OS/MAC combo would be far far better today than it currently is.

It's the Sonic, Bob, I think. However, since that sonic guy bought the rights to a recipe using foul-tasting aquatic wildlife from a guy who didn't technically own the rights, I'll never purchase one.

Apples arnt actualy behind in speed because they put out there power at about half the watts of a pentium. Plus OSX runs a bit more clean so it can run more programs without it lagging. And wtf are you talking about, my PC crashes like a million times more. Since ive gotten this, nothing has happened. AH crashes all the time on my PC. I'm not looking towards the pentiums because the power will drain much faster. I only wish they found a way to put the powerpc 5 processor in, but the proccesor would run so hot, that they needed abesto shorts which cant be found in great quants.

And guys, im not a handsomehunk, ive owned like 5 Pcs in the past 15 years, infact, i still own 2 of them. I would have perfered to have it on my notebook, since this thing is better than my desktop in everyway.

Hope you dont think he invented the "windows" concept.

Both Mac and Amiga were using the same concept well before windows ever came out.

I remember when windows first arrived I walked into my then bosses office to check out what all the hubub was about.
(Since he was proudly showing it off to everyone he could like a newborn kid I figured why not)

I took one look at it. Fiddled around with it for a minute. turned to him and said.

"Whats the big deal? This is old news I've been doing this for a couple of years now".

The man about looked like a kid after someone stole his lollypop
I was never "invited" into his office again LMAO
