I wonder if DOS users had the same complaints when windows 1 came out... or if windows 3.11 users complained about the completely different Win 95 layout... or how NT isn't really …

When buying a new Mac, we always have to dish-out additional $180 for RAM, and it's something we really cannot get later on, the OS needs that much RAM(32MB at least). Mac OSX kno…

Pardon me, but what the hell are you talking about? $180 for RAM?? Maybe for a really cheap 256MB module or a ridiculously overpriced 128MB module. And what do you mean you can'…

I think one of the reasons OSX was developed is because Windows seems to be consistently growing closer and closer to the look and feel of OS8/9, and Apple wanted to stray away int…

Karl, Apple prefers HFS+ over UFS simply for migration issues: people can upgrade to OS X and install it over their current HD info without reformatting if they keep HFS+ for a wh…

Have you ever eaten raw dough, or uncooked eggs? Wait until the bread is baked before thou judgeth.

Wiseguy, don't ask questions you're not prepared to hear the answer to. By the way, for the original topic question the answer is, "yes."

Yes Orbit I was wrong, from Apple's website it was $140. But with a 64MB RAM iMac you can't do much with that, maybe some wordprocessing, the OS by itself eatsup around (31MB comfo…

im starting to wonder if Apple did a good thing by restarting and doing a clean implimentation of an OS. i mean OS 8 could barely run well on a Pre G3 and now that the systems to …

Runs fine on an 8600 with 64 megs of ram. Runs better on a G3 though

Reasons for OSX 1. Error type 1 2. Error type 2 3. Error type 3 REBOOT REBOOT REBOOT Force quite = 20% effective Virtual memory now = joke, OSX=robust (we hope) REAL multitaski…

Minimum 64 megs RAM.

64MB is the minimum to basically get past the login screen. You'll need more if you want to use applications, especially Classic. 128MB is a good starting point, twice that makes…

Mewha is scaring everyone by saying we need 256 MB to get OS X really running well. 64 MB is enough. There a lot of bulk in DP4, a lot of rough edges that push up RAM use and slow…

I suspect that 128 megs would be the minimum for casual usage, in this particular version (OS X DP 4). It's nice from what I can see, but it feels like it should be faster than it…

Tried all the foreign Apple sites I hope? www.apple.ru www.apple.co.jp etc... notice on Apple Japans website the Airport is called the Airmac? Cipher13

Never even thought of that... Thanks!

I must have been to a dozen Mac shops in Tokyo last summer and didn't take pictures of a single one...d'oh! Anyway, the units themselves look mostly the same as they do in the US.…

I have an Italian iMac DVSE which has extra characters for the letters with accents such as ������ etc. Strangely while Italian Pcs have a qwerty keyboard (plus the letters with ac…

I'll post tomorow a pic of the arabic system desktop... I have the french one if you're interested too!

Wish I had. I have been showing the G4 off to a PC friend's son, who did not consider Macs seriously before. He found the Halo movie very impressive and thinks I have a good compu…

After a recent visit from Alaska , my girlfriend's sister wanting, and very much needing to get a new computer was inundated with all the so called bells and whistles of my girlfri…

I have one Wintel friend that, after hearing a lot about Mac OS X, has decided that he wmight convert sometime in near future... Especially if Apple releases a version of OS X for…

I have one friend who went and bought a G4 because she is interested in graphic design, and has not seemed to regret the decision, even if all my PC friends who used to mock me are…
