MacDailyNews - Where Mac news comes first

It oughta be here in less than two hours! Hooray! One question though, does the system really take up 9 gigs??? Or is that just what's necessary to install?

'Leap forward' in what? Certainly not games. All Apple cares about are I-Pods, and even those are getting long in the tooth. Soon Microsoft will release magnificent new Zunes which will make I-Pods look like cassette Walkmans.

The MAC OS is a 30 year old UNIX dinosaur that's run it's course. Get with the times, Apple. You want a leap forward? Get up out of your smug chair MAC lemmings and try the awesome Microsoft Windows Vista. There's sure to be a version for everybody because Microsoft believes in customer choice. Apple only made one version of Leopard or Pussy or whatever—once again limiting customer choice.

Your potential. Our passion.™

Zune ... you are oh so boring ... please get a new routine ... this one has run it's course ...

@zunetang

It's funny. You always mention games! Why do you have a computer in the first place? Do yourself a favor and get a console. That's where the games are, and that seems to be what you're always talking about.

Zune Tang needs to stop smoking crack. Try a Mac and iPod dude, you will never go back!

i love how pc users call macs toys and no use for business

then spend all day playing games on their 'business' pcs

how sad

zt , you need a new schtick

Great, this thread has been Zune-jacked.

Mine was being delivered to my office by UPS, I must have seen 4 UPS vans drive by - when normally I wouldn't see (notice) any, it then got delivered by a non-descript white van just as I was beginning to think something had happened. Now I just have to wait until I get home to use it.

Take out the languages and the myriad printer drivers and it takes 30 minutes to do fresh install.


BLISS!

FedEx just delivered a Leopard!

Maybe I'll wait to install it....

@ Macaday

I agree with you. With ubiquitous internet connections nowadays, I would be in favor of them not including any print drivers then have the OS download them on demand. I think they should include an option on install to leave out the extra language packs so I don't have to use a third party app like monolingual.

I must admit that all these reviews are getting tedious. Since when was the Dallas MN a key opinion former? It'll be the Falklands Island Flyer next.

Btw, does anyone know if Leopard will be pre-installed on the new machines or does it come on a disk? I'm planning to replace my iMac in the near future and would use the disk to install a copy on my PB.

Who gives a rat's ass about games?!? If I want to play video games, I have a Sony PS3 connected to an HDTV that is better than any Windows PC anywhere is for gaming. For my computer, I just want an OS that works and isn't bug and virus ridden like any flavor of Windows out there is.

No one
DMN is a conservative paper with a large circulation in Texas.
What do YOU consider a "key opinion former"?

Keep it Zune . . . As long as you get responses like NeverFade's. It's the responses I find more amusing.

@ TowerTone

National press or TV -- which you probably don't have in the US. Apart from USA Today, which always seems to be free in hotels. or CNN? In the UK: Times, Telegraph etc. Not sure if Mac readers buy The Sun. Sun readers get stuck on page 3.

Hey Zune,
how does it feel to watch your empire crumble? Apple = the future

Hey Chimpy, how does it feel to be one of the only ones who visit here not to recognize Zunetang's obvious satire.

Zune Tang, you're my hero, you know that?

<3

I hope all these windows loosers don't come around to mac os. why? 'cause those Asshoe will bring virus infestive asses with them to our God given's Leopard... Stay over to your ms crapshits vista over there. don't come here to our mac os x. WE DON'T WANT YOU!!! GET IT...! (Especially for you!... Zune Tang! What's your last name? Dumass?)

or is it DUMB_ASS?
