Exactly. Put down the bucket of Chicken and STOP clicking "YES" on the download permissions dialog box.

Get the mid range G5 with a gig of ram.
Hard drive storage to taste.
a 20 inch wide screen flat panal.
If there are any pc program you just HAVE to run, virtual pc for the G5 should be ready in a month or so...
But hey, if you dont end up with a full blown 64 bit G5 as your main computer. Do yourself a favor and get a flat panal imac or a low end laptop to surf. You'll be sooooo much a happier surfing around, believe me

ehhhh, you dont use a two button mouse with your laptop?

I used PC's since 1981, always recommended aginst MAC's. OSX has changed all of that. I use a MAC now, we switched most of our office machines to Macintosh and I do not regret it. The extra cost is well balanced by the lack of down time.

If the application software you use is available for a Mac you will accomidate to the new interface in a couple of hours and really enjoy the stability and lack of trojans and viruses.

Yeah, I have 2 buttons on my laptop but the macs only have one retarded button. I imagine I could use a mouse with a Powerbook but c'mon! I would switch totally if it weren't for this one stupid little issue. :feels-hot

Your only one sale away from that problem being fixed.
Whats a mouse cost these days anyway?

Pornwolf 12-25-2003 10:11 PM

Huh? I don't want to have to buy a fukkin mouse to use with a notebook. That's the point.

Digipimp 12-25-2003 10:35 PM

I guess we all know my opinion on this subject already.

:thumbsup

I could see if you were a Linux guy and you wanted to run AMD64 maybe.

moron - we use the 64bit version og XP

wait for the powerbook G5 ... if you can't wait get the G4 17" !!

Wombat 12-26-2003 06:06 AM

We only use Macs now.

Anybody who says Macs are only good for graphics obviously hasn't used one recently.

:2 cents:

bigdog 01-03-2004 07:12 AM

sleazy did you ever get the mac?

Murderous 01-22-2004 01:26 PM

I know this is an old thread but I could not resist to respond to those bitching about the single maouse button issue...

Did you know...
That if you hold your button down an extra second the right click dialog pops up?

Or...
If that don't work, or is too much a hassle for you, try holding the 'control' button down when clicking.

Both these options are useful for the one button guys, some macs don't work with the first one, but if I remember right that was designed just for the notebook users.

You would think the hardcore mac users would have known this.

BTW...

OS X.3 Panther ROCKS!!!

dig deeper into your features and options and there is a lot of cool things that rule over PC.

way more advanced.

I am running an old G3 iMac with panther, adobe creative suite, and macromedia studio MX 2004.

Nothing better than this killer combo for ANY web developer.

liquidmoe 01-22-2004 01:29 PM

So what are a few of these options that you can dig deeper to uncover, just curious. Thought about getting a mac myself a few times.
