Thanks, but I've done my homework on the drives. All I was asking was can I just buy a MBP with a standard drive, and swap it out with an SSD without any other changes to the hardware. But it looks like the answer is yes, I can. So thanks.

Nah, it's not a virus. A Virus is characteristically malicious. Vista didn't "intend" to cause all those issue, it was just immature.

Based on everything I've read about this case, I still feel that Adkin's claims that Papermaster broke his contract is questionable... Personally, it looks very much like Adkin just has a personal grudge against Jobs, and Apple for whatever reaso…

Actually I was thinking of projects like Adium, and games like Supertux. The likes of which "are" still done by college students.

Anyone remember the olden days where large scale corporate funding and big development teams actually meant a less buggy, higher quality product than the "open source" projects made by three 20 year old college freshmen in their free time? *cough*al…

The kernel panic is the Unix (and in this case, Mac) version of the Blue Screen of Death. Basically, the spy alert software that Yama mentioned is making the entire computer unstable. You don't even need software like that on a Mac anyway. They'r…

http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/7...p022508qh3.jpg I care about my desktop too. Make fun all you want of the selected media on the screenshot. The point of it was to show how elegantly OS X handles multiple preview files. Vista looks like a…

I really hope this means nVidia will actually bother with Apple as a real customer from now on. The last SEVERAL point releases containing GPU driver updates for OS X with nVidia hardware have been an absolute nightmare while the ATI machines have b…

I just go ahead and leave Mail.app open all day and have it check for new mail every few minutes. Because of the way OS X handles memory allocation, it uses less ram to just leave it open than opening and closing it 20 times a day.
