^ super leet feature of the safari browser. you can drag any image from any page and drop on desktop , folder , etc. btw, in that screen cap, that is me draggin the sig from the page if you cant tell.

Pretty cool, if games didn't come out 2992592 years later for mac, i'd consider buying one

plzdie:

angel:

Mac > Windows

too bad games take forever.

you can actually do it from ie as well , but no preview.

annoy:

im beginning to think so as well ... windows is nice as a gaming platform, but other wise i think mac os owns it ... ive pretty much been using the mac for everthing - gaming lately.


: if you notice in that screen i have 2 illustrations open and one indesign document, 2 browser windows and a "finder" ( my computer ) window, without a decrease in performance, on a 1.4 ghz machine.

speaking of OSes, i wonder how Linux will do on PS3.

mac and awesome should never be used in the same sentence.

ps right click save > drag

I think that the Mac OS is just more efficient...I've really been looking at getting an iBook just for homework and web browsing and movies then using my PC for gaming. It's just that Macs are soooooo expensive and I don't have anymore money to spare because of school and court related things.

The only thing macs are good for is video editing. (rendering basis of 1-1, not 2-+ like pcs... other then that they are useless peices of trash that look trendy.

(and that problem can be solved via video rendering card).

Dual Opterons beat dual G5s across the board in all multimedia tests.

Macs aren't any faster at video editting or photoshop than a PC of the same price.

dunno about how fast but they are certainly tailored for the multimedia market ... i know most if not all commercial digital art work is done using macs.

yeah , 3 operations > 1.

(on my campus) Only the video related professor use mac's. Every other person around uses PC's for Illustrator, Photoshop ect.

My friend's mom used to be one of the 5 lead editors at National Geographic as a layout editor. She used a mac and even took a G4 with 20" monitor and Adobe CS Suite when she left the job. I assume that National Geographic would know which computers to use for their work

judas you are such a fucking mac boon.



its like me making a thread in a forum of 95% mac owners on "More windows awesomeness."

lets do it. biggrin:

awesome

i hate you all.

no offense to all the mac users/lovers here, but macs aren't all that great. you won't find one mac user who doesn't have at least one adobe product on their machine or one macromedia product. they're basically machines built for designing. thats it. that is its strength. much like how linux is more for like, servers and not all that great for gaming. pc's can do so much more than macs...and pc's won't cost you an arm and a leg like macs do.

wow, national graphic=god now? oOo:

[quote="[DAS REICH] Blitz":9a628]wow, national graphic=god now? oOo:[/quote:9a628]oh thats right i forgot, only a mac is capable of using photoshop, illustrator, quark and various video editing programs....right? stupid:

No, they aren't god, only one of the longest running and respectable photographic magazines that exists...


I'd say that makes them qualified to establish which types of computers are better for what. They wouldn't waste the money if it wasn't for a reason.

Yes Mac's allow me to see every stretch mark on drooping tribal tits.

Just to let you know, when the g4 luanched, the NEAREST competing pc product out at the time was something in the range of p3 500mhz... your comparision is from a different time. PC's have far exceeded that since then. While macs are forced to run daul cpu systems to play catch up. Your comparision.. let me say this again.. IS COMPLETELY outdated. This coming from a mac user. I would take a mac over a pc anyday when it comes ot video editing, but when it comes to anything else......PC > Mac. (and if I HAD THE MONEY I WOULD TAKE daul opterons over the mac g5 solution, being as daul opterons (880's) can run youinto the 6k range cpu's alone......

The whole reason apple have switched to intel from the motorola power pc chips is because they can't get 3ghz chips working. I believe apple said they would launch a 3ghz pc near 2 years ago and still nothing.

all I care about is that I have had my iBook for 4 years now and it still runs as fast as the day I got it.

macs are like a industry standard in the design world, most magazines you will see will have been created on a mac in quark or indesign, it just works the best for the job. Plus macs dont go out of date over night unlike pc hardware.


cant wait to get my hands on the new intel powerbooks.

oh and what do you think the microsoft xbox360(currently as powerful if not more than alot of pcs) playable demos and shit a few months ago was running on before they got the hardware all sorted out for it? yes apple g5s.

Probably cause the xbox 360 has powerpc cpu's inside so obviously the development platform is gonna be mac based. Compared to intel and amd cpu's, powerpc cpu's are a joke.

this thread is retarded... XP and explorer can drag images onto the desktop and folders too... just without the resource hoarding graphic of the image moving around... rolleyes:

I love my incomplete and run on sentences... My ill use of comma's and semi collins is also quite sexy.

I still have an ibook hanging around from my private school days.
