Fight fight! Twisted Evil

George, don't blame IBM's for Wayde's crappy rhino 3D work. The whole how many games can you play on your machine is a wierd subject anyway, you can't really apply it to the MAC VS PC war.

All the mac's i've used have been snails on broadband and lagged heaps, I believe my old Pentium 75mhz use to out run the iMac G4's at school and they were on broadband! Shocked

Down with MAC's, up with pants! Exclamation

lol sorry george but we "ibm" users drew straws as to who was going to have to throw the match against a mac user and sadly i drew the short straw so dont get too ahead of your self there lol

also that picture of me lurking around looking retarded is the work of a poorly performing graphics system that mac's suffer from because if you see that same photo through a ibm in all its proper ability you will see its George trying to walk a non-responsive pinsher Very Happy

also who is this daffy you speek of? because i AM a bastard (parents wernt married when born) and i dont like being put in the same catogory as a mac user Very Happy

Is the war over ? Has Apple dug its own grave? Or is this the begining of the end for the Windows based PC? You be the judge . . . .

They've had the OS-X running on X86 machines for over a year now. Each version of the OS-X that has been brought out has also be compiled on an X86, according to Tomshardware.com

I found it very odd too, considering the new Intel S775 Prescotts are running hotter then the new AMD's. Still, I have this bad feeling about buying a AMD 64bit 3200+ over the Intel Pentium 4 640 :S I now know what it is like to convert from Imperial to Metric Sad
