I would love to try out a mac OS, but with them only going on Mac computers I cant. They look really cool, although it took me like 15 mins to eject the CD

the 15 min eject is only in mac 9

i hate that too
but in X after hitting the key once it pops out

i don't have 10.1 yet, i need to get to compusa and get the upgrade

I have 10.1 installed now, it's sweet

it's usable speed, much better than 10

the unix side is bsd tools (which dislike) so i installed the dev tools (free download if you register w/ apple) and compiled the gnu ones, works fine. and installed binaries for XFree, 10 is nice.

Is it easy to have X and Mac OSX GUI Working together?

supposibly, i had some trouble but it works

the thing is that all the X apps come up as one, if you click in the dock or on one of them, not like the normal mac apps.

my dad is a free lance writter and needed a mac for page maker. so he's had one for that, then my first computer was a mac cause i wouldn't want a windows one, and didn't know about linux then.

macs are really nice, and the prices are getting better, the problem is the old models don't drop in price much

I would like to have a Titanium PowerBook G4. Beautiful and functional.
