Take it to work, boot it into Windows for your database apps and tools, take the laptop home and boot into Mac OS X to run your iLife, Safari and other cool apps free from a virused environment.Aaron Bhatnagarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06359690269570060896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10662640.post-1144872749975292302006-04-12T13:12:00.000-07:002006-04-12T13:12:00.000-07:00Grand Turismo 4 on Playstation is one of the bette...Grand Turismo 4 on Playstation is one of the better ones out there....<BR/><BR/>Still having the ability to have windows on the MAC in the new format is great.

The reason being that Apple tend to put in the higher spec equipment like faster RAM and/or video cards compared to the Dells and HPs out there.<BR/><BR/>The nice thing about the Mac Mini is that you can keep all your old PC hardware like monitor, keyboard, mouse and just buy the Mini. Remember, its not just the hardware that makes the Mac great, but bundled software like the iLife suit with several high quality digital content tools like DVD makers, Movie makers, music making programs etc. <BR/><BR/>If you like your games that much, Playstation or Xbox is probably the best way to play them, since all the games are designed to run perfectly on the specs of the box, as opposed to constantly upgrading for PCs.Aaron Bhatnagarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06359690269570060896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10662640.post-1144751676390161532006-04-11T03:34:00.000-07:002006-04-11T03:34:00.000-07:00Thanks Aaron.

This is getting insane -- going into the 'net is now like backing out of your gate in Joburg, you could get mugged locking up without even going anywhere. My next computer is definitely gonna be a Mac, I'm eyeing a Mac Mini. To think that they're wanting to make appliances connected to the 'net. WHY???

So along with the games, you get the viruses too. Hence why it will appeal to some, but why I will probably never bother installing it when I get an intel based Mac in the future.Aaron Bhatnagarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06359690269570060896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10662640.post-1144683894341844832006-04-10T08:44:00.000-07:002006-04-10T08:44:00.000-07:00It is meant to be a ghost system, therefore I am n...It is meant to be a ghost system, therefore I am not sure that that will happen?Rob Goodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03696059924886120946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10662640.post-1144658197853094552006-04-10T01:36:00.000-07:002006-04-10T01:36:00.000-07:00Pardon my ignorance, but does that mean that all t...Pardon my ignorance, but does that mean that all the usual suspects -- trojans, viruses, and other unwelcome gate-crashers will once again be a worry?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10662640.post-1144451860482109872006-04-07T16:17:00.000-07:002006-04-07T16:17:00.000-07:00do it now.do it now.Aaron Bhatnagarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06359690269570060896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10662640.post-1144444956781033602006-04-07T14:22:00.000-07:002006-04-07T14:22:00.000-07:00And I can get an Apple lap top.And I can get an Apple lap top.Rob Goodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03696059924886120946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10662640.post-1144376553835157132006-04-06T19:22:00.000-07:002006-04-06T19:22:00.000-07:00Just think, every single kid who whines that the l...Just think, every single kid who whines that the latest games won't work on his or her mac can now shut up. Every person who has spent thousands on special software related to their business can migrate to a mac and know that they can still use special legacy software.<BR/><BR/>Graphics professionals can go out any buy the latest professional macs when they start using Intel, knowing they can use a Windows version of Photoshop or CS Design until the optimised Mac version is ready.Aaron Bhatnagarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06359690269570060896noreply@blogger.com
