I've been reading that the clock speed of the graphic card in the MacBookPro has been reduced by Apple in order to reduce heat and save battery life. Perhaps when you boot into win…

It's not really defensiveness. You claimed that Windows is twice as fast as OS X. You have done nothing to prove it. I don't know what else to say.

I showed that Windows is twice as fast as OS X in this particular game. Other game benchmarks show a similar story. To clarify the statement, Windows is twice as fast as OS X for …

I think "twice as fast" is an exaggeration in most cases (including this, which seems to be showing the bad full-screen glow behavior more than anything else). Most 3-D games proba…

Well, I guess we'll just have to see once more OpenGL benchmarks start popping up. :-) I think some Doom 3/Quake 4 action would be a good indicator.

Very trollish, and absurd, to call people "zealots" just for objecting to your extremely misleading title and pointing out that 3D game performance is not the same thing as overall…

I call people "zealots" for blindly apologizing for/denying certain truths that they would otherwise harp on if it were on the competitor's side. I'll change the title so that peo…

With Intel Macs and Boot Camp or Parallel Windows booting software you could just stay gaming on Windows and use OS X for everthings else or whenever you deem necessary. This is re…

Windows Viruses: bazillion, near infinitum Mac OS X Virus: 1, debatable Mac OS X is ZOMG BAZILLION times more secure than Windows. </sarcasm>

I can really hear the IQ points falling through the floor in this thread. OS X is slow, Windows has more holes than swiss cheese, and Linux is still not ready for prime time. Bea…

Games ? Aren't those the things that children play on those Xbox things ?

My dad is bigger than Tomchu's Dad. Why? Because he's Chuck Norris. * THREAD ENDS *

Why do so many people feed the trolls? Not responding would work better. They want all this attention.

Does anyone know if the firmware update is available to download for the Mac yet? I can only find it for a PC and of course who would want to own a Pc.

we would expect to see it here, but it isn't there, so we conclude it doesn't exist. Curiously they do have Mac firmware updates for their USB drives (which are both Mitsumi mecha…

Plextor doesn't have the firmware update posted on their U.S. website but it's posted on their European website. Go figure. Here's the link: http://www.plextor.be/English/technic…

Wow! thanks stogieman! how strange, that they should only have the firmware update available on their European site. it's on a special "Advanced Software" dl page (as opposed to th…
