Too bad for you... Just by reading this -> http://www.apple.com/macosx/ esp. these last two sections: * Solid as a rock * Developer's dream would give people reason to consider and even "switch"... One of Japan's most prestigious universities, Tokyo University, just purchased 1,149 "customized" iMacs and 53 Xserves--all running OS X, of course. They weren't the first one though. A university in Nagoya City has also bought more than a thousand of those. Imagine this. I've just finished recording a re-run of "Dark Angel". I've cut the commercials, added chapters, and now it's ready to render and burn into a DVD together with the previous episode (I can put two in one disc). While waiting, I'm listening to my fav music on MP3s and debugging some of my PHP scripts. Oh, and did I mention that I'm doing all of this while copying voice/music from cassette tapes to the hard disk so that I can turn them all into MP3s? And did I mention that you can do all of the above just by installing Mac OS X and one software called Toast? You don't even need to install Apache, sendmail, etc. (and of course PHP) for testing since they're "part" of the OS installation. Do you need to ssh to your remote server? No sweat. The "terminal" is part of the OS as well. There you can just run the ssh client and login to your remote server. Btw, you can *also* customize the looks of your terminal. I like mine semi-transparent, with a prompt that looks and feels like I was back in those DOS days ;) Yes, I can do those and more on my Mac. And it doesn't even crash on me even if I do many things at the same time. I could run it for months! The only time I really needed to reboot it is when I added a new Serial ATA RAID card. Now, I'm really missing "the blue screen"... Too bad, my Mac is only next to my wife when it comes to being sexy, gorgeous, and beautiful <grin> Still not convinced? Too bad for you... - E - __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
