Apple users?
Anyone on here an apple user? I just (5 minutes ago) ordered a 60gb iPod and 12" Powerbook with extended coverage on both, iPod dock, wireless mouse, and airport base (wireless modem). Can't wait to get them, tired of my pc giving me hell all the time. (not to plug but it is listed in classifieds if anyone is interested) Wondering how well HMT functions within Safari, Mac's web browser, or if anyone has any input about OS X. I've heard nothing but good about it.

HMT looks good, between Safari and Firefox I havent had any issues where Ive had to use explorer. OSX is lightyears ahead of Microsoft, its very stable, easy to use and intuitive.. I just wish they had SolidWorks and a few other programs I use. Im waiting to upgrade mine when the intel macs are released next year youll be able to run non emulated XP programs and have OSX.

RAWR,
Have you used the new OSX. Its unix underneith so you have infinite control if you know what your doing. You can command line if it floats your boat.
And Im using a PC at work right now and I hate it. ---- crashes almost daily, for no reason with fucked up encriptic system error codes. I spend like an hour a week dealing with MS bullshit... Ive been running OSX for like the past year at home and never had a hard crash and never needed to reconfg.

Re: Apple users?
my pc on windows 64 never crashes. its been on for about a month and a half now. i run a few servers, so thats why. if you have windows configured right it works great. somthing about being on a mac is agervating for me its probebly because ive never sat down with one and messed with it for longer than an hour. plus macs price tag doesnt like my wallet. i could be running a dual core amd system for less than a powerbook cost.
