The point for me is exactly the point made in the YouTube video. The products that MS produces, even their commercials, fall apart under any level of scrutiny. From Vista to the Office suite to projects like SongSmith, MS reveals their complete lack…

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it now costs a minimum of $1,799 to buy a new Apple computer with a dedicated video card? -Switchy

I don't know about others who use 3D game type apps, but Second Life performance on my office 24 inch iMac with the GeForce 8800m shot through the roof after this update - I'm talking about a two to three-fold increase in frames per second (20-25 to…

What if Apple put an AMD chipset and processor (Puma) into their Macbook lineup (keeping Intel chips in the Macbook Pros? Would you want one? Pros? Cons? -Switchy McSwitcher (donning flame-proof armor)

Does anyone know if the Intel GMA x3100 drivers were updated with 10.5.5? Thanks, Switchy McSwitcher

Why is .Mac so slow? I would go with it, if my iWeb sites would load in a reasonable amount of time. People I send to my sites say they look nice, but load so slowly that they get aggravated and give up before seeing what's there. Are accounts t…
