    Macintosh Pride & The Apple Store at Tysons Corner, VA

    Ah.. I refuse to speak to call centers and demand, usually furiously, to speak to someone in this country, or at least to someone who can understand me. It is not really acceptable, perhaps if the site owners/mods here could start an online petition and get/force everyone to add their name to...

    Mac under attack...

    I think Mac is a UNIX variety and attacks on UNIX machines is lower, some say Windows having a larger share of the market means it is the major target of attacks, some however are just idiologically opposed to the dominance of Microsoft and attack them on principle, usually from other UNIX...

    Macintosh Pride & The Apple Store at Tysons Corner, VA

    Having had to ask Apple UK/Eire (you should have called them lilbandit) some technical questions about CoreImage on the Mac mini I was really disgusted by their attitude, they were rude, terse and condescending. I almost cancelled my Mac order. Apple really need to get that attitude in check.

    Tiger on the Mini

    I've just spoken to Apple UK/Eire about this, I had to hold for a long time while they spoke to the Tiger team in the US. They say Apple is not going to speculate on the capabilities of an OS before it's even slated for release, any copies in circulation are unfinished works and nothing should...

    Tiger on the Mini

    So, Apple are selling new machines like hotcakes which aren't going to work properly with the OS it's releasing the next few months? Don't think so.

    Complete ripoff of iPod Shuffle

    I just laughed and laughed... It's amazing, the pure cheek of it. Oh my! I do think Apple have a responsibility to protect the investments of it's users and protect it's own work by making an example of this company. A lot of cloned products come from the far-east, I've had cloned...

    Macintosh Pride & The Apple Store at Tysons Corner, VA

    I also agree Adonsa, I've been out in the PC (UNIX not Windows) wilderness for a good many years now due to circumstances beyond my control, but I am now coming back. I owned a PowerMac 5500 and PowerBook 520 with great pride. One thing I was always proud of was as a Mac user, it didn't matter...

    Future of eMac? Impending demise?

    Well, this is what I was thinking, whether the market outside of America was being taken into account, as I've said, here in the UK our biggest supermarket chain, Tesco has started a campaign for 'computers for schools' on TV featuring the eMac. I've also been told that here at least they are...

    The PC-Mini?

    YEAH! Rage on!! :p It's amazing how much Apple stuff inspires others, then again it has had a major impact on societies all over the world. Apple just make great stuff, everyone wants to copy it. I'm so happy I'm getting a Mac!!

    Future of eMac? Impending demise?

    I'm getting a mini, but my elderly neighbours have bought one and their friends are getting them too. They are beautiful, wonderful machines. I had a good play with one about a year back and it was great. I'd buy one now but I needed one for me and my partner, so the minis were more cost...

    Future of eMac? Impending demise?

    I get a feeling of animosity towards the eMac from some. Is there some kind of elitism at work agains't anyone who doesn't buy a G5 or something? it's sad and really quite pathetic. It's a Mac, a Mac is a Mac. If a model stops being made, so what? I don't get it.

    CherryOS Released! Run MacOS X on x86!

    DONT TRY IT - It will damage you! I recommend a poptart and two hours on the Mac to redeem yourself!

    Quick question about Xcode

    Thanks, I had done that before I ordered. ;-) If I recall I saw Xcode updates? I wasn't sure if they were the full thing, I'm sure they were quite big. I've no blank CDRs at the moment, so I may have to wait until the Mac comes and if the tools aren't with it, I'll buy some more disks and...

    Future of eMac? Impending demise?

    People love rumors etc. but I don't believe so, I know lots of people buying them and they'd have to provide another all-in-one machine. They are perfect for the education market too. If they did, I think it would be a very silly move - and would it REALLY matter? I'm still recommending them...

    CherryOS Released! Run MacOS X on x86!

    LOL! I'm going to do the same ;-) The modified moral of the story is: Never get a pig to do the job of a Panther :p

    CherryOS Released! Run MacOS X on x86!

    I'm not talking about 2004. The info and the rumours about it being a rip off came out late last year, which the author denied repeatedly. However, the actual product was released publicly YESTERDAY, and the actual product which they are now SELLING is a rip off. What I find incredible...

    CherryOS Released! Run MacOS X on x86!

    Sounds great eh? Well, actually it sounds blasphemous to me. As someone who is STILL waiting for Apple to deliver his Mac mini, I've been using PearPC which is a SLOW emulator of the Mac to play with. I can tell you that the much hyped CherryOS is nothing more than PearPC, a copy which apart...
