NerfYoda Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 The solution to this one is easy... Ditch outlook Install Mozilla Better yet ditch windows. Having an OS not part of the market share means most of the viruses out there will never harm you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datheus Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 Bah... I just don't use Microsoft Outlook... That saves me from multitudes of email viri... I'm hoping to get Linux this summer when I get a new machine.. then I'll use Linux for most of my activity, and Windows for gaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teutonicknight Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 MS Explorer, ha! Try out other browsers, others are wayyy better. Try out Netscape 7, pretty good browser, considering v6, v5, and v4 sucked. You can set it to do tabed browsing, which is really cool and useful (you can open multiple windows, with out actually opening up multiple windows; kind of hard to explain). Opera is OK too, it can do tabbed browsing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm selling everything I own practically to get a powerbook... including my gaming rig. Anyone (preferably in the Dallas, TX area) looking to buy a 19" monitor, a Creative Soundworks digital 5.1 speaker system, or an athlonXP1800+ 512M RAM etc etc gaming rig?

Yep Mac rules, for what I'm going into anyway (digital video and graphics). Not the best for games... but pretty good for.... everything else I would highly sugest every one here to get a Mac. It's not like you'll make money in the future playing games anyway (well, someone here might..... but for the most of us....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They ARE good for graphics, i use them cos i need the practice for photoshop on macs aswell as pcs. You can definately upgrade a G4 tower to your liking. They'll take IDE drives, various amounts of RAM, the same video cards you can put into a PC, etc etc. With OS X mac's are good for SO much more than Photoshop. I plan on learning Cocoa so's I can write me some fancy OS X apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datheus Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 I don't hate Macs either... Just the commercials... Well... I do hate old macs.. man those things suck But newer ones are ok, they just don't have as much of the market, so there isn't always as much compatiblity... I mean, JK2 is JUST hitting the Mac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerfYoda Posted October 4, 2002 Share Posted October 4, 2002 That kind of stuff will change once Mac's get more market share (hah, good luck there ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
