Seen on some the chat boards customs drivers that greatly improve..
Personally don't care for multi touch be it mac or windows
That just the way Mac-holes are....
Anyone that does not bow down and kiss their Apple on just mentioning the name ... and they call you a hater
So profess the statement of the truth faith you infidel......
There is no other Computer but Apple...and Job's is their profit
‘...Don’t put up stupid headlines that have no basis in reality, and you wont have to feel bad when people point out how dumb it is.”

If you read the linked story you would have seen that the “stupid headline” is simply copied from the headline at the linked article (as we’re supposed to do when posting an item). If you have a complaint, you should direct it to betanews.com instead to the FReeper who posted the article.
By the way, I think betanews.com is likely “neutral” and doesn’t have an axe to grind for either Apple computers or Microsoft based computers.
Hahahaha
So, 95&98 are interchangeable in that respect?
Linux Mint Cinnamon here. Nicest and fastest computer I have ever used!
It is interesting how much Windows laptops cost when they try to match Apple for hardware and design. The ones that have similar size, cpu and SSDs, etc. are all as expensive as a Mac. Why not just get the Mac, and run Windows in Boot Camp? I also have Parallels and run Windows that way on my Mac Mini, but it is a lot slower.
OK well, that's a function that I have never seen any utility for, except maybe to hide what I'm doing from someone walking up behind me. If I want a clean workspace, I just go to another workspace. Oh, that's right, windows dosn't have multiple workspaces. Sorry.
Ubuntu and Mint seem to lock up when I run “Try” from the DVD. At that point the DVD goes into the disc box and I go no further with it. It has been that way for the last four or five versions.
It works both ways, in case you haven't noticed.
From a compiled program perspective yes. Although NT could run DOS programs, it wasn’t always very good at it, I don’t believe DOS could run any native NT programs. Most people today are ignorant of the fact they are running NT, not Windows other than in name.
“...It works both ways, in case you haven’t noticed.”

Wow, in post 9 I was responding to this language: “...Apple’s user base are crackpot cultists....”. In doing so I did not “hurl insults” at Microsoft users. I do not take shots at Microsoft products or users of Microsoft products. My belief is “different strokes for different folks” and I certainly don’t “hate” either Microsoft or Microsoft users.
But if it makes you feel better believing that I hurl insults at Microsoft users, go for it. But you are, in fact, distorting reality when you believe that.
in a way it does, but if you look at just about any apple thread, you'll see that many of the posts start out with insulting Mac users and degenerate from there. I suspect that is because so many windows supporters have little, if any actual experience with apple products in general, and Macs in particular, that they really don't have much else substantial to say. The opposite is not true. I dispise MS-Windows, but it comes from much pain and frustration on my part. Having personally investested countless hours in it, I have no problem commenting on it.
Btw, I'm not an Apple geek, since I don't actually own any of their stuff other than a 3rd person handmedown iphone 4. I prefer to be known as a unix bigot if you please.
ROFL! Nice!
I’m sure that there are isolated Apple people who are “crackpot cultists”, as there are in any group, but in general, I don’t believe that’s the case.
But have you considered why someone might come to that conclusion?
What is it about the attitude and comportment of some Apple people that elicits such negative reactions?
I agree, the comment about “crackpot cultists” was a broad and insulting generalization.
You responded to that poster’s comment with an equally broad and insulting generalization.
It’s like a couple of kids fighting, and each one blames the other for starting the fight.
The parents just want the fight to stop.
A recommendation to all:
Discuss facts, argue for what you feel is right, but stop the insults and dispense with the holier-than-thou attitudes.
OK?
“...I agree, the comment about “crackpot cultists” was a broad and insulting generalization.

Sorry, we’ll just have to agree to disagree. My post 9 was FACTUAL. And if folks think it isn’t factual, IMHO, they are just not very observant.
Anyhow, I’ll continue my policy of NOT attacking Microsoft products or users of Microsoft products.
