That’s the closest thing to truth you’ve ever posted.
Sure am glad I don’t have any part in this thread.
You people are crazy. [COLOR=‘Black’]And by crazy I mean fucking stupid.
What I’m saying is that the BSoD is a signal that there’s something very wrong. While the BSoD does list the error and where it occurred, it probably isn’t self-explanatory to someone that isn’t an expert.
Many Mac fans suggest, however, that BSoDs are something like a daily or hourly occurrence, which couldn’t be further from the truth.
Already a thread like this (i know cuz i made it) there is a search function just fyi
oh ya and btw PC’s are way better
One of my video drivers on my pirated version of xp had problems, and it wouldn’t update right (just to be clear this was because it was pirated, not because of a flaw in xp) so I BSODed every time I tried to play a game for more than 10 minutes.:fffuuu: That said, you are right, BSOD’s usually signify a severe problem.
I think this thread was meant to give the topic a fresh start.
Ya, I sort of lazily skimmed over the threads before I made this.
Not too easy using search when there is a mac vs. pc argument in every. other. fucking. thread.
That, to me, is the key difference between the Start Bar and the Dock; you can’t have folders on the former, but you can on the latter. On my Dock I have a folder for games, where I store all of my game apps including all of my Steam games (which only, at the moment, consist of Portal and Torchlight). If I want to find a game that isn’t on my Dock, I only have to go to the folder and a grid, list or fan of all of the games in it pops up without me having to go into Finder. No clutter to be seen. But that’s something you really can’t do on Windows.
I just found an interesting App that serves as an interesting accompaniment to the Apps folder. Its called Quicksilver, and allows you to access Apps with just a few shortcut commands. Just press your shortcut (in my case, Ctrl-Z) and then type in the name of the program; when it comes up, press enter, or select it from the dropdown list. Something everyone with a Mac should look at getting.
Oh well that makes sense . The only time I ever got hourly BSoDs was when my laptop had catastrophic hardware failure (which eventually resulted in HP coming and replacing everything but the trackpad and keyboard).
That’s actually not true. You CAN do that very easily on Windows.
When you pin a folder to the startbar it is simply pinned onto windows explorer’s jumplist, so it isn’t a huge difference, and, IMO, it’s better because it keeps all of your folder icons together. It does have the disadvantage though of not having a fan system.
You can also place a folder in a toolbar and have its contents fan out, including embedded folders inside embedded folders. You can fan through as many folders as you need. Pull up Games, pull up FPSs, pull up Science Fiction, pull up Current Era, pull up Half Life, pull up shortcuts to Half Life, Half 2, and Portal.
It’s real simple to organize like that right out of the Start bar.
And it’s equally easy to do the exact same thing with the Dock in OSX. Not sure what you three are arguing about °_o
Enh, loony636 suggested that you can’t do something in Windows that you can. Just a bit of correction, not arguing.
I was unaware that you could do that. Interesting. I shall investigate.
Well, no shit, since pin feature as it is was first introduced in Windows 7, whilst docking folders was in Mac OS for pretty much 2+ yrs.
And Windows version still isn’t as good… And not as pretty.
And it’s completely normal that MS is cuntpasting Mac OS features, since, let’s face it, they have no other option really.
I’m sorry, but you could put folders into your Start bar since XP.
Apple copies Microsoft, and Microsoft in turn copies Apple…
When will the Wac be coming out?
Or better yet the ICopy?
Wac better exemplifies the masturbatory qualities of both companies.
Yes not to mention it was available on every version of windows since 98SE.
