First, there was Windows. Then, there is Lindows. Now, Macdows!
Yes, the moment is finally here! Mac runs on Windows XP and Mac OS X!!!
Yes, that’s old news. But this makes it sweeter! Rather than using Boot Camp, use Parallel! Then, you can switch OS on a Mac just like switching users on XP! Familarity and ease of use of XP + graphical benefits of Mac systems = lots of drooling on my part!
Maybe it’s because of the LCD monitor. But I’ll be getting one soon enough, and then I’ll see if that’s the case.
Unfortunately, nobody can say for sure if running XP on Mac systems would translate into nicer graphics. So much for my daydream for now. At least it’s closer to reality now. Now, just one or two more dreams come true, and I’ll be the happiest person on Earth!
Ever since I started playing with an eMac G3, and then an iMac G4 I’ve always been enthralled by the graphics. I still remembered the first time I found it sitting in the AJ library. It was usually the unoccupied one most of the time! Perhaps everybody thought it was for aesthetic purposes, or too intimidating to use.
So finding a PC in the library to use is very easy for the first few months. If it wasn’t for the incompatibility with Windows in the past, and the one button mouse, I would have gotten a Mac a long time ago, instead of the P4 3.0GHz HT. But now?
Macbook Pro with Intel Core Duo anybody? If there’s one selling for cheaper than RM6,000, it might just seem worth it. Unfortunately, the cheapest one is currently selling at about RM7,200. Plus, I don’t have an iPod to complement it. I already have a 2GB Mp3 player after all.
Wait, if they come up with the iFlea that plays far more than just ONE song (and minus the crap accessories that they have in the ‘advertising’ video) the I might just get the set. hehe. Don’t know what I’m talking about? Google iflea and watch the video.
