I personally don't really see the point of a Mac unless you work with movies/graphics.	Death_Claw	June 02, 2008 12:02AM
Its simple. If you know what you're doing, buy windows.	cointreau	June 02, 2008 06:42AM
When I met my physics advisor a while back, I asked him why he had a mac sitting under his desk.	Inquisitor	June 02, 2008 08:27AM

See, for someone's who is like you, Isildur or I, then I could see Mac/Linux.	Death_Claw	June 02, 2008 05:10AM

What do you need to do on a windows machine that you can't do on a mac besides play video games?	Inquisitor	June 02, 2008 01:30AM
Stupid argument.	Death_Claw	June 02, 2008 05:17AM
Tell that to my mother and my mother in law. And stupid argument is a stupid argument.	Inquisitor	June 02, 2008 07:58AM
Its pointless to argue with someone who doesn't consider vendor support a benefit. n/t	Death_Claw	June 02, 2008 10:58AM
You consider vendor support a benefit? Wow, okay, now I understand.	Inquisitor	June 02, 2008 11:20AM

Try a different binary. I use Version 1.96.3. No bugs on my end.	Inquisitor	June 02, 2008 08:15AM

Hmm, yeah. I see what you mean.	Inquisitor	June 02, 2008 11:13AM

My mom's pretty smart, she's just a technophobe. My physics professor was just tired of learning new OSs. Its kind of more about avoiding stress and tedium, really, than a form of mental retardation.~	Inquisitor	June 02, 2008 11:22AM

Time for me to uninstall/reinstall. nt	Splntrd	June 02, 2008 12:55AM
I'm running all the latest stuff. OSX 10.5.3 and the latest Adium. nt	Isildur(VIP)	June 02, 2008 12:59AM
I guess it might be a conflict between the latest version of Adium, which came out after 10.5, and OSX 10.4.11	Splntrd	June 02, 2008 03:08AM

Woah, that's a pretty smart feature, I'd never heard of that. I'll have to get that when my Dell ships. nt	Splntrd	June 02, 2008 06:03PM
