  • While that may be true, I wouldn't count XP out just yet. I know quite a few people (myself included) that still run Windows 2000 reliably and will for sometime to come. I'm sure if Vista doesn't work optimally, as you say, XP will more than suffi…
  • That's what I meant. For people like you, it doesn't make sense, but the average user is not a web developer, or application tester or what have you. There are many, many more gamers out there, and I see dual booting as a solution for them. Then …
  • I think in the short term it makes sense for people to dual boot. Obviously 95 percent of the world uses Windows, and while most people can get by with using Mac OS X exclusively, there are instances when a Windows installation would be useful. An…

  • Yeah, like I said, ATI is not 'late.' In a year, when ATI is ahead, and nVidia hasn't released a competing card yet, will you say they're late too? Quote: Originally posted by Lemon Bon Bon Well, I saw plenty of sites. Nvidia was comfortab…
  • I should have mentioned that I'm not really as big a gamer as I used to be, so not having issues is probably relative to the number of games I'd install, which isn't all that many. But, that's an interesting question regarding Mac versions. I wo…
  • That's great. If I still owned a PC, I would be interested in that, but since I only own a Mac mini at home now, I'll be hoping the chip that card is based on makes it into a Powerbook someday. Regarding the comment about drivers, I did hear t…
  • ATI and nVidia have been going back and forth for years now. They flip-flop for the performance crown about every 6 months. nVidia is on top at the moment, but ATI will bounce back and take the crown again. Up until February, I was solely a PC us…

  • Quote: Originally posted by SS3 GokouX An updated version of WebKit was included with the update. Does it include the patches to pass the acid2 test? (I'm using the nightly build from the opensource WebKit page so I can't tell.) If it does, maybe…
  • Well, I basically stuck the open end of a firewire plug that was in the Mini into the audio Line Out port on the iPod dock. In any case, I will bring it somewhere and find out how much it'll cost to fix. If it ends up being very expensive, or at l…
  • Quote: Originally posted by two They aren't manufacturing a new machine. For all intensive purposes, it is the same machine with a few part bin swaps. If the powerbook sales are slowing, it doesn't make economic sense not to update it. Apple k…
