Title: Apple OSX Post by: Titch on Friday, April 29, 2005, 14:00:21 Do any of you on here use the Apple OSX operating system regularly? Either at home or at work! I have used it a bit but want to know other peoples views on it. I am looking at buying a MAC to go with my PC so i can write some cross-platform programs! It is supposed to be the dogs but just trying to get some first-hand comments!

Title: Apple OSX Post by: Sussex on Friday, April 29, 2005, 14:17:32 Yes!
I've got OS9 at home but use OSX at work. I wouldn't have a clue what it's like for programing though, I'm just a designer, so run Quark, Photoshop, Illustrator etc.. You're right though, it is the dogs! 8) Title: Apple OSX Post by: Titch on Friday, April 29, 2005, 14:24:42 Cheers Sussex. It is supposed to be faster, more reliable (plus many other things!) and generally better than windows, would you say thats right?
Pretty sure i am gong to get one! 8) Title: Apple OSX Post by: Sussex on Friday, April 29, 2005, 14:33:40 I would say that's spot on.
Do you know what mac you'll be getting Titch? My mates just bought this and is well chuffed: http://www.apple.com/uk/emac Or there's the new one, but it's got a G4, not the newer G5 processor. And you have to buy a screen, keyboard and mouse seperately (although you can buy it all bundled in some places). Quite cool though and absolutely tiny: http://www.apple.com/uk/macmini Title: Apple OSX Post by: le god cuervo on Friday, April 29, 2005, 14:49:22 yeah macs rule! i use one at work, much better & faster than my PC at home. been wanting to buy myself one for ages but too expensive
Title: Apple OSX Post by: Titch on Friday, April 29, 2005, 14:50:57 Not really looked at the hardware side of things to be honest, been concentrating on the OS side of things but I did like look of that powermac G5 so it will probably be one of them. Was very keen on dual processor as I am seriously thinking of making it my main machine!
Intialially was thinking of getting the mini one but i am one of those people who like the latest technology so if i was to buy that and like it, which i probably will, i would only have to go and buy a new one anyway!

It's ok, it's a rhetorical question. I don't really want to know :wink: |
