Audio DVD has already been out for a while and hasn't really caught on. Record companies have resorted to releasing CD/DVD hybrids where one side is an Audio CD and the other side is either an Audio DVD or a Video DVD and may even contain DVD-ROM content that can be accessed with a PC.

"What really makes me sour on using a Mac or even buying a Mac is firstly the fanatical Mac community that acts more like a cult at times" Who cares what other people say, think, or do? I just use whatever works for me and makes me happy. I don't care at all about any fanatical community of any product or company.

Bush is liberal on some issues like illegal imigration, for example, but to criticize him for spending money on the recovery from a natural disaster is totally something else. I find it pretty extreme that you care more about not reducing your wealth than helping people who are now in a situation they were never prepared for. I consider myself a conservative, but a mainstream one and far from exteme.

Of all the software available for Linux, how much of it is any good? OpenOffice, GIMP, and Firefox are probably the best applications available for Linux and have been ported to other operating systems. With Mac OS X, you can have the best of both worlds. Mac OS X is built on BSD which is another open source Unix-like system but has strong commercial support from Apple and is as easy to use as Windows. There are lots of open source programs availab

Skinning is a hobby, not a career. People who skin for money are doing it for all the wrong reasons and really should not skin in the first place. As far as paying rent, bills, taxes, ect, there are real jobs out there.

All new Mac software that comes out after the Intel-based Macs start getting made will be dual Intel/PowerPC compatible. All software packages/installers will contain binaries for both Intel and PowerPC. If you buy a Mac now, you should be able to upgrade it to Leopard in the future since Leopard discs will contain both an Intel version and a PowerPC version on the same disc and be able to use the newest Mac software. The only reason to wait for a I

There is more to a good quality chip than speed. As far as I know, speed is the ony advantage AMD holds and the speed really isn't that much faster than Intel. Energy efficiency is also an important factor. So is the amount of heat a chip gives off. A chip that gives off less heat will mean less chance of a computer that dies out from over heating. Also I do not want to have to deal with noisey fans or having space taken up by those liquid cooling

I would take a little lower speed for better energy efficiency and a lot less heat. Intel is the better choice, and Apple's decision to use Intel over AMD to me says a lot about Intel's quality since Apple ony uses high quality components to build their computers with.

Well of course anything running under an emulator would be slower. Take note that what you have quoted is PPC software running under the emulator Rosetta on an Intel based Mac. Only software compiled to run natively on Intel should be used to test the difference in speed.

You might want to rethink the title. I clicked on the link to it at JoeUser thinking it was going to be an uninformed bashing rant from a 1337 733|\|.
