Dang... I heard this rumor sometime ago. But I dismissed it. This is really going to disappoint a lot of people...

I hate limewire. It just screams "poorly built" and "virus central" to me. \ It's not even a bittorrent client. It's a p2p network app. (which as we all know is a haven for piraters.) Typically I don't really like java based apps. But Azureus is…

I don't own a HDTV, and polled as such. But when I do end up getting one, it'll be over the air television for me. To be honest, I can't get cable, and satellite is far too expensive for me in my area. I'll most likely be getting a Blu-Ray or HD-DVD…

Wow... Just... Wow. If you're really that lazy, go back to Windows and save the rest of us the hassle. If you really want to learn about Macs, open the lid and use it. If we just tell you everything, you won't learn anything. Furthermore, .dmg's …

Though I see your point, my initial point remains. Mac OS isn't for tweakers. I've played around with various distributions of Linux. in fact my Windows PC is currently a dual boot machine running XP and SuSE 10.1. But my point is that while play…
