  • Gateway's new Profile 4 commercials are genius. It's advertising, they are supposed to be geared towards their own products. When the Profile 4 sticks it's tongue out and gives the iMac a raspberry - that's just hilarious. Gateway is not lying. …
    in The Gateway Profile 4...what a joke... Comment by patchouli September 2002
  • They are just as retarded when it comes to PCs too - so don't feel too bad. Whenever I am in there, I always seem to correct them whether I am in the Mac or the PC section. They also blatantly lie to customers who simply don't know any better. …

  • Apple needs to add the following for me to buy either an iMac or an eMac (without a price increase): 1GHz G4 (or better) 60-120GB 7200RPM HDs (faster HDs make a huge difference in performance) nVidia Ti 200 or nVidia Ti 4200 - 64MB Video Cards …

    in CF PC card adapter Comment by patchouli September 2002
  • I have a $9 Dane-Elec PCMCIA Compact Flash card adapter in my PC Notebook. I just popped it in and was ready to go (showed up as a regular drive). Same thing with my MicroDrive and PC Card adapter. I am sure OS X will have the same plug and play …

  • With Windows XP, I hear that SP1 is going to check and see who is running a group license copy of the OS (leaked corporate licnese). In other words, if you got a copy of XP Pro from a buddy at work or school with an open and multiple license (no ne…

    in Jaguar family kit vs XP rape kit Comment by patchouli August 2002
  • If Apple doesn't know how many computers you're installing the OS on, then why would anyone buy this package? Why not just use the one CD that you bought for all your (home) Macs? With WinXP, the serial number must be registered with one compute…

  • Sorry, but Apple does not own the all-in-one computer idea. Not all-in-one computers = iMac. If it doesn't look like the iMac, they have no case. Also, the new Celeron processors are built on the P4 core - they are not shit for the $$$. You woul…
    in Gateway's new iMac ripoff Comment by patchouli August 2002
  • What an (awful) blatant rip off of Windows 2000! Only, the Lindows GUI is ugly, inconsistent and looks thrown together. Not that Windows 2000 is pretty, but it's at least neat and well organized. The start menu, the dialogue boxes, the buttons,…

  • Exactly why would Apple sue this company?! Their products look absolutely nothing like Apple's, the names of their products are different and there are no other similarities even worth mentioning. I personally have never even heard of this company…

  • Ah yes, I remember the day when I had my RoadRunner installed. I was hitting every site and downloading everything possible! The larger the file, the better! Have fun.

  • The Woodstock era perhaps? Were Steve and friends hippies? Don't forget about the psychedelic 60's/70's inspired groovy FlowerPower design.

  • The new font is pretty cool. I can't help but notice that the text on Apple's site (with this font) looks a bit fuzzy and jagged in comparison to the previous one. This new font is also not as clean and sophisticated as the other (IMO). The site …

  • It depends on what bit rate the MP3s were ripped at, and the quality of the encoder that will burn them to CD. If we are talking your average MP3s downloaded from the internet (128-160) burned onto a CD using Toast (or the PC equivalent), then ye…

    in Black iMac?? Comment by patchouli July 2002
  • WOW that iBook looks amazing! I wish Apple would offer different style colors (no, not the tacky colors from the past). I would love a Ti iPod, iMac or an iBook. I am so hating this white thing!
