i have leopard its fast in s ome areas slower in others and general not very efficient (networking is broken at this point). Also i never understood why people rag on MS for being a monopoly and not Apple. they have there own OS and you can only get the hardware for it from them, that is a monopoly (They can charge anything they want for there hardware and they do).

That is different though... it's their own operating system on their own product. Microsoft has Windows on Dell, HP, Gateway, Compaq, etc.

It's not an opinion, it's a fact. Why do you think only Microsoft is going through court for monopoly?
I am still scratching my head over what microsoft was thinking while they were creating Vista. "Hmm, consumers won't mind the fact an OPERATING system will require 2 GB memory to run smoothly". Geez, even gamers don't have that much memory.ryank285

Maybe it's just me but it's hard to laugh when someone tells you to "STFU".
[QUOTE="kieran88"]Sorry if I hurt your feelings on a message board.ryank285
You didn't hurt my feelings, you are telling me to "take a joke" when i thought it wasn't funny. Simple as that.
Okay, concidering it was a joke - not aimed at anybody in particular.... I think you're getting worked up over nothing. Also, why not take into concideration what you're saying to others before you get worked up over a joke. Let it go. I'm done with this topic.
Back ON topic, something you're not interested in, I see no logic for apple to support the playstation other than to take on microsoft in another form, apparently loosing on one isn't enough for them.

You haven't seen me worked up yet, buddy boy.
im not a mac user... just a ex windows user :)Billionare-Boy
lol :) I can see where you're coming from in a sence, but apple clearly aren't interested in gaming. Which I personaly think is a big mistake concidering their latest hardware is actualy quite good, maybe they can pull it together in that department, who knows, but I don't think the playstation is the answer for it.
Apple and Sony compete with each other in the PC market space. Ever heard of a Vaio, what about the MacBook (Pro)? :roll:CellAnimation
Though I agree that it would never happen, don't count out partnerships of competitors. Ever heard of the format war between Blu-Ray (Sony) and HDDVD (Toshiba)? Do you know who helped create the Cell BE processor with Sony and currently makes them for the PS3? (HINT: It's Toshiba!)

This would never happen. Apple only cares about their OS and the iPod line, they don't need to be in the gaming scene, and obviously don't care about the gaming scene.fntsycloud
Exactly. I warned my friend of this when he was tempted to get the new mac. He got it anyway and I get a message " WTH it doesnt play games!?" lol ¬_¬

itll be more painful that way, so sure ;)I wouldn't know, i never inserted a straw there.
i have leopard its fast in s ome areas slower in others and general not very efficient (networking is broken at this point). clarkportmankenWTF? In what way is networking broken in Leopard. I have multiple Macs here and I have many friends with them. You're the first person I've ever seen complain about the networking in Leopard. Also WTH does "not very efficient" mean? Leopard is a hell of a lot more efficient than Tiger for everything from memory management up.

Yea but if you look way down the road. And if you look at how EA and Micro work. A merger between two that actually know what their doing, would be sweet. And it would be dominant, at least quality wise. Because EA and Micro do ok, And they have no quality.
This would never happen. Apple only cares about their OS and the iPod line, they don't need to be in the gaming scene, and obviously don't care about the gaming scene.fntsycloudIs that why they released an 8 core desktop yesterday with 2 16 x PCIe 2.0 slots. With the option of using a PCIe 2.0 8800 or 2? With machines like that saying they only care about the OS and iPod line is pretty dodgy.
[QUOTE="SPD_WeBmAsTaH"]I hate the mac. CellAnimationWhat an ignorant statement. If you knew anything about Apple's computers (or computers in general) you would know that the Mac is nothing more than a PC that doesn't use the outdated BIOS but in fact it replaced it with Intel's EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface).
Its just the case of following the 60 and Micro. And not understanding the past and now. And transferring that thinking into the companies as a whole. And thus its what the kids will say. Thats all the statement was. Thats why the 60 is also bad news, it upd Micros rep to millions who have no clue. Why the 60, because Micro wants the media area. And even more control over cooperate US outside of the basic tech area. Which is everything from movies to whatever. Thats the reason for the 60. More control.
[QUOTE="chrisr913"]think about it like this, if Apple knew that they could get an edge over bill gates with getting into the gaming industry by forming a partenership with Sony, they would be all over that opportunity!CellAnimationApple do have partnerships with Sony. Ever heard of Blu-ray? Apple are on the board of directors of the Blu-ray Disc Association. Gaming on the other hand is just bad business. How long did it take Microsoft to make a profit on the Xbox? Oh right they never did. How long did it take the 360 to make a profit... oh right they had to spend millions and millions of dollars on fixing broken hardware. Anyway time to back away from this thread there seems to be a distinct lack of knowledge about Apple and Sony as a whole here.
Why are you getting touchy about people opinions? Remember the majority of home computers are PCs with windows. Not to mention gaming rigs :P Keep this in system wars if you feel like midlessly backing a company.

How am I mindlessly backing a company by spreading facts? Hell I have just as many Windows Vista boxes here as I have Macs. I work for an IT company and specialize in Network OSes. So that means at work I use WIndows 2000 Server, 2003, Server, Linux, and Unix. But okay I'm an Apple fanboy... :roll:Ok, has anybody here actually ran vista in a PC with more than 1gb of ram and not basic vista, premium. Ill tell u, vista beats XP by alot, and the tools are really easy to use, I havnt crashed once and it loads faster than my xp. My XP laptop was the most expensive avialble in compaqs line up in early 2006. The vista laptop is a cheap HP laptop that probably does the job better than XP if I were to install onit. But wat I really want to see is skype on PS3 just like the PSP. That would be nice. But vista does have alot of stuff that you wasted memory like the graphics on the pages being all cool looking see through and stuff like that.Yea, very bad idea. That wouldn't ever happen either.
But I do agree that Leapord is much faster than Vista. Vista = Windows ME #2. XP is just too dang good, they can't beat their own product, lol. That just says alot for XP.
