Hmm DVD wise? I mostly use netflix to get my documentary fix. I tend to go for animal ones like I was bitten and this one called most dangerous or something like that (about the deadliest animals in africa/australia/etc). my girlfriend had me watch the katy perry one and it wasn't bad.

i'm 6'1 and about 170. I've always been kind of a slim guy. I stay pretty active and eat a wide variety of foods.

@deeliman: lol!

i'm real camera shy...so this is the best you'll get

shouldn't this be elsewhere?

i'd probably end up doing what I always do on roller-coasters...close my eyes and put chin to chest lol...seriously.

sadly, little mermaid; i was helping my gf babysit her boss's daughters for some extra cash

i'm a mental note kinda of guy, unless it pertains to school, then I'll jot down key concepts.

tried checking for it under currently installed programs and not seeing it

is having issues running Sims 3.

She said she installed it twice, and both times it it brings her back to the installation window. (she clicks on the CD icon that shows up when something is in the drive)

She said it never gave her a desktop icon.

I'm thinking she opted out of it during installation and is fine, but not sure. Neither her not I are the most tech savvy; I know a lot of the basics and that's it.

I've never owned a Mac or used one extensively enough to know of any shortcuts here and there.

Specs:

processor: 2.6 intel Core i7

RAM: 8 gb 1600 mghz DDR3

Graphics: Intel HD 4000 384 MB

Software: OS X 10.8.5

Space: 750 GB SATA disc

..;..;I've read through the system requirements and feel that I'm fine there.

My guess was to do a complete uninstall/reinstall, using a program like revo (but need to find a good one for macs).

Any suggestions?
