Ah yes... and Panther is looking much, MUCH cleaner than previous installments in the OS series... This will definetly convince a lot of people to switch to Mac OS X. Posts: 2 | Registered: Monday, June 23 2003 07:00 |

Panther looks good, but the "iTunes-like Finder" is not impressing me. Exposé looks useful, but it's something that should have been included a long time ago. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Vahnatai Did Do It desperance.net - We're Everywhere The Arena - God Will Sort The Dead ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Plus the Jaguar icon is a lot cooler :P But anyway, Flavius, I am 14 years old and therefore can do whatever I want with money I get from working, as my parents pay for food, clothing.... the house.... you know, stuff like that. Still, $2000 - $3000 is kinda high... although my dad did buy a $3000 laptop a couple years ago, maybe I can use that to my advantage. -------------------- And though the musicians would die, the music would live on in the imaginations of all who heard it. -The Last Pendragon TEH CONSPIRACY IZ ALL Les forum de la chance.

Okay. I've seen the G5 and I have one thing to say... I think I'm in love. Forget having a girlfriend, I want one. I'd rather have one than a girlfriend. God, if you see it fit for me to have G5, please give me a sign. I mean I really want it. I would kill someone to get one of those. Must get job. Must get parents to help me buy it. Must learn magic. Must raze PHS to ash. Oh wait. Anywayz. I will do almost anything to get one. I haven't been that impressed with how a computer looked since I saw that powermac in a macaddict that was painted in a way that made it look really cool.

Once I get one of those, I will be able to run every Spiderweb game simultaneously! Of course, this is based on the faulty assumptions that someday I will have one. This may or may not be true, but the emphasis must be placed on someday. —Alorael, who will have to go off and console himself with skribbane since he cannot console himself with Panther or a G5.

LoneFlame scares me. And to think, I thought the G4 I'm typing this on was fancy... -------------------- We're all amazed but not amused By all the things that you said you'd do.

And I'm on a G3... *sigh*... sooo does anyone know when it's actually going to be out?

Interesting... I'm still, unfortunately, not a mac fan. I'm much too attached to the process of opening up my computer case and banging around on various objects therein. Macs just don't seem to give that same feeling. I like to be able to pick and choose what parts I'm gonna use, regardless of their actual quality. ;) That and I like to play computer games, a direction Macs seem to be sadly lacking in. No offense to Jeff or the like, but one can only play Exile or Avernum so many times before they start wearing on a person. :P -------------------- Stuff? Don't mind if I do, thanks. This may, in fact, be a long, rambling post without much bearing on the topic of the thread. Consider yourself warned. Posts: 32 | Registered: Monday, February 3 2003 08:00 |

Uh, there are many PC/Mac games out there. And there are also many Mac only games that are really good. There are also many good PC only games out there. So really there isn't much difference in the grand theme of over-allness. Although I still find it funny that I took my iMac appart and put it back together and it worked perfectly, but when I did the same thing to my Zell, which was a tower pc, the motherboard kind of got fried and I had to get a new one. Then spend 3 or 4 hours bouncing between Microsoft, Dell Tech Support, Dell Customer Care, then Dell Tech Support, and finally a 3-way with Dell Tech Support and Microsoft just to get XP to work again. However, few things in life are as sweet as knowing that while you're on hold, some poor vole at Dell is also on hold at Microsoft.

You know, Mac towers are just as expandable and tinkerable as PCs. *has a G4 iMac and use of a 12" G4 PowerBook. Also a Quadra 610 and a Mac Plus.* And most games nowadays are cross-platform. -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Vahnatai Did Do It desperance.net - We're Everywhere The Arena - God Will Sort The Dead ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

Amen to that.

quote:Does that mean, if I did get a Mac I could still use my PC games? I only have lower end stuff anyway as my "game pc" is only a 233 and my laptop is a 166. Might be worth looking into this more.... how are the imacs?
