The industry I work in everyone works with Macs. About 500 hundred people I've worked with who use macs never ever get a virus. I've never had a virus since I've worked with macs close to 7 years. There is a reason why macs don't come installed with an anti-virus program.sgotskillz

Sorry to burst your bubble but you obviously dont know very much about your system, it does have malware/anti virus built in to it.

Apple like to keep it quiet and have hidden it well, after all there selling there products to customers on a lot of hype and hot air.

So much to say as they dont actualy name it but are using a type of variation of ClamAV, Check out Xprotect.plist which apples updates regulaly.

Typical MAC users need keeping in the dark to keep them beliveing the apple hype.

Also a little about my experiance , i hold both my MicrosoftMCSE and Apple Certified Support Professional Qualifications, i currently look after 125 Mac`s in computer labs and 560 pc`s,

The hardware failiure (average ratio)between both Mac`s and windows pc`s are pretty much even, the same goes for software problems.

From my perspective Apple products may look nice but your paying over the odds for a brand name nothing more.

Windows 7 is currently a far more secure and robust OS than Apples current offerings.

ClamAV is only pre-installed on OSX server. You do know the difference between OSX server the the OSXdesktop counterpart right?

Thank you for your remark yes i know server and desktop.

But may be you should learn how to read understand and quote ;)

I did not say it had ClamAV.. i stated it had Xprotect.list on desktop.

Might i suggest you ask here instead of Gamespot.

You should get some sound advice.

Personally i have found if im burning 2 simultaneous DVDs both on SATA the buffer handles it pretty well,

But if i try SATA & IDE or IDE & IDE the buffer does tend to struggle / bottom out, giving me the odd coaster.

I have installed a GTX 260 in my partners machine and a 275GTX in mine,

There is no reason to be thinking of upgrading if i were you.

I used to one of those guys who upgraded cards pretty regular but from a personal level the cost never justified the means.

As long as its not choppy and plays a good frame rate for you dont worry about what reviews or tech sites say ;)

Was it Populous (bullfrog games) by any chance?
