realize i know macs do alot of things great. But so far i have been able to do everything i have ever wanted with my PC. And for those people complaining about BSOD's its been years since i have had a true out of the blue one. With a Pc the average person just has the ability to mess him self up bad because he has the power too. And for all of you think Mac is god talk to my ex roomy who had a kernel error or something awhile back on his ibook and lost everything. so... nothing is perfect.

And one other thing for you guys that use mac and use it to its highest possibilities good for you. Get the most out of everything. But if your using it just because it looks pretty and that’s it... *hits with newspaper*

and yes i dont like punctuation....

Yeah, it's $9.95 for the media, and April 12th is the starting date.

I returned it, but plan on getting a G5 desktop in the next six months or so. I did enjoy my time on a Mac.

I have 2GB of memory, and can fill it with about 4 apps open. Perhaps you need to read up on the FreeBSD memory management model?

VenomXt, stay out of the thread if you have nothing on-topic to stay, further off-topic posts from this one will be deleted without prior warning.

funnily enough I have been able to do anything I ever wanted with my iBook as well

**VenomXt** · April 27th, 2005

i suppose i should give them a try one of these days would be good for me to know the basics i suppose. I guess its kind of like growing up knowing a language and then all of a sudden you realize there are other languages and need to know them as well. But your first language is still your favorite. hehe

anyways tdinc good for you i must admit the mac mini's are rather nice looking. Beats the hell out of my server case in size practicality.

I know all about it, but I still found it to be strange. Comming from a long line of Windows platforms it was like... whaa?

If there is memory present, then what's the point in not using it? It's a simple and extremely efficient concept

Indeed. Memory is for keeping App code in .. well .. memory so it's quicker for the CPU to do calculations. Keeping RAM free for no reason is rather silly if it can be used for something running.

Agreed. And since much of it is caches and buffers they can be thrown away the instant a program needs more memory.
