ugofoscolo Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Two Years ago for me there was one o.s.... winsozz... now I use winsozz xp, vista, linux, mac os x, mac os x86... Here I think that all users have a mac os x 86 on their disk, so, when you will buy your next computer, you will buy a pc??? a mac??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mifki Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I already have a couple of Macs, but im getting a mac-mini for a small footprint server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugofoscolo Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 For server I use a Linux Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper Drake or 6.10 Edgy Eft (both Desktop version), with samba, apache, php, mysql... I think that linux is the better server os Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandmanfvrga Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 In time, I will get an iMac to replace my PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro17 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I dream of a Mac Pro, but not in its present form (it should use less "esoteric" hardware). I don't know if and when I'll be able to afford one. However my hackintosh is only 7 or 8 months old, built with quality components. And BTW, isn't it remarkable? Only 9 votes so far, but nobody wants to buy a PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe75 Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 isn't it remarkable? Only 9 votes so far, but nobody wants to buy a PC. I'll be the first. I will never own a mac, if I cant run an OS on a PC, I dont need it. I like osx86 but it hasn't influenced me to buy an overpriced Apple product.

nagal Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 Unless Apple release OS X to install on any machine you want, I will be getting a Mac Pro. Actually I am saving up for one as we type/read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

head Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 i will get a new macbook pro in 2008 or 2009 i think ... for that time the power has to be enough ;-) maybe, in 2 years, if i earn any money after studies, i would like to have an imac or a mac mini, so that my macbook pro is really only the portable device...

kernalzero Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 macbook pro when leopard comes out. I'm not in any desperate need for a new computer right now...I'll wait patiently until that times rolls around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baliw Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Macbook/Pro, Mac Pro are very nice computer no question about it, but it doesn't generate income for me. So for me a PC workstation ( 4 of them actually ) is on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erbic Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 (edited) Already have my MBP, gonna buy Leopard when I finish paying my dad for the computer. If Leopard's ever suitably hacked, my next computer will be a custom-built Hackintosh. Otherwise, another Mac of some sort. Not really looking that far ahead ATM - I expect this MBP to last me through college. Should do it easily, too. I hope.

Synaesthesia Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I want a Mac! Any mac, i'd be happy with a Macbook, MBP or iMac. I mean this computer is *very* nice, it runs all my oses wonderfully, it's been really stable and fast, and cheap, I'm very happy with it. But compared to an imac, it's just so ugly, inside and out. I cannot compare it to an iMac, those computers are just amazing. The design and everything, all the little details, the fact that it's completely silent, has digital audio, things like that... Even my friend's G4 emac which was basically the cheapest mac around 2 years ago...it's fantastic! Yeah, when Leopard comes I'm seriously gonna want a mac, just hope I can sell this sucker to some other sucker and get enough money together...

henchman Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 I just ordered my new laptop. A Dell Latitude D820. I was looking at the Macbook pro, and in the end, after doing the research, I saved apile of dough by not gettign a MBP. I sue my computer for audio production, and for that I need a special PCMCIA card. Apple, stupidly, decided to not have a PCMCIA cardslot. IMO, they should have included it with this series of MBP, as a gtransition. In my case a similar configured MCP would have cost me $600,- CDN more. Add to that the cost of a replacement Express card for my application, and I'm up at $1000,- more. Add to that, the fact that bootcamp is not addressing all hardware interfaces etc, yet, and it simply was a no go. On the dell, I can pull out the media bay cartridge holding the DVD burner, and slip in anoither bay, with a secondary harddrive. This way I can simply boot from that drive into OSX. No need for dualbooting set-ups. I can also easily upgrade the processor when quadcore are easily availble, and come down in price, as the CPU is socketed on the Dell. So, I saved$1000,- Can run both OSX and Windows natively. And we won't even start talking about all the quality issues I read about regarding the MBP. We'll see where laptops are in about 2 years, when I am ready to buy another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
