I am getting older... Of course I did not see ...... I am getting older... Of course I did not see OS "X" on a 512ke... <br /><br />For some reason, MAC OS X has replaced the label MACOS in my brain, it seems.<br /><br />But then, I only really converted to the Mac with OS X. Before that, my preference was NeXTStep. <br /><br />My iMac actually offers a nice comparison of Windows and OS X on the same hardware, via bootcamp. And that really makes you aware of how much Microsoft sucks.Duckiputzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07474521994011071213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-79374539598739198672009-04-27T15:01:00.000-07:002009-04-27T15:01:00.000-07:00Oh, and Apple isn't evil.

I got one of the first ones through the University of Texas' lovely student bundle program. It was an original 128K machine with a second external floppy drive. I now own a Mac mini and despite the fact that my hard drive is almost full,I love the damn thing.<br /><br />So I will echo the penguin and say you can take my Mac away when you pry it out of my cold, dead hands and not one moment before. I sincerely wish I could use one at work but they've bought into the stupid talk and think that MS is the proper business model.

Mine does.<br /><br />Your Windows PCs cannot do any of those, can it?<br /><br />If you want to use your computer, and spent less time to fix it, then a Mac seems to be the choice to me. I have to use Windows at work, and it sucks. All the time. I use Macs at home (as clients, servers are Unix and Linux), and I can only support Tux´ statement: out of my cold, dead hands. <br /><br />Even though M$ is "adopting" Mac OS X (and others) features like there is no next wednesday, they still cannot offer a comparable user experience. <br /><br />Unfortunately, the presence of Micro$oft in the market has warped things so bizarrely that statements like your comment are to be expected.<br /><br />Doesn´t happen for me... I was there before Windows. Or rather, my first Windows-System was Sunview ;) and then X11. Oh, and Mac OS X on a 512ke Mac I saw at a demo.Duckiputzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07474521994011071213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-20510379028235345902009-04-26T18:01:00.000-07:002009-04-26T18:01:00.000-07:00that is:

Don't give my secrets away!
This particula...Shhh! Don't give my secrets away! <br /><br />This particular screwdriver was by the checkout register at Fry's Electronics for something ridiculously cheap like $5 and is a tiny little stub of a screwdriver looking much like a revolver cylinder with multiple bits arrayed around its periphery like revolver bullets. It is not sonic, but it is quite handy for the electronics maven :).BadTuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345749557330760251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-71048691156835092992009-04-25T19:34:00.000-07:002009-04-25T19:34:00.000-07:00"the services of my "Teeny Turner" screwdriver"
