Mainly desktop publishing, 1080p video editing, research etc.

:p

It was joke. I'm running OS X Mountain Lion on a 27-inch iMac. I couldn't get any of my work done using an iMac G3 running the Mac OS X Public Beta.

That's a shame, I really love stories of how people use outdated technology in their lives :(

Maybe you wanna talk to the many Lion users who are stuck with it on their unupgradeable machines?

OH SNAP!!! :laugh:

Nah seriously, my fianc? belongs to that sorry group of users... I'd ADORE to upgrade her to Mountain Lion, but her Macbook won't work with it. :(

I think dropping the 32bit kernel is good, what is not good, is not giving Mountain Lion the same system requirements as Lion.

I mean, really, ML is what Lion should have been and everyone and their dog knows Lion is slowing down the system and only has a half-a**ed integration of iCloud.

Back on topic:

I know what you're talking about and I feel the same.

Retro is cool in a way and I'll definitely get some older Macs later on, mostly for collecting them, I don't have specific plans what to do with them.

They are just beautifully crafted and better than a lot of designer room decorations out there.

(Sometimes even much cheaper :p)

My next apartment will definitely see a good old 1950's telephone made from bakelite.

Glassed Silver:mac

Awww. Well, my mom still uses a 2005 eMac (1,42 GHz G4) running OS X Leopard on a daily basis. Did that cheer you up a bit?

OS X Lion on a mid-2011 Mac Book Pro (first SB batch I think). I won't be going ML anytime soon as it is incompatible with our corporate network - Lion was too and I only moved to Lion in May'12.

Snow Leopard on Mid-2010 iMac. No reason for me to move past that right now. Really not into the whole iOS integration since I don't have an i-device yet (other than the iMac). I have looked at the other goodies in ML and yet, just can't get myself to fork over the $$$ for what little I would use or need at the moment.

Might upgrade later though. ;)

Running 10.6.8 on my 13" MacBook (Late 2009). I've been considering upgrading to 10.8, but I'm dragging my feet waiting to see if they fix the battery drain bug first. I like getting 7+ hours out of my battery, I'd hate to have that drop to half.

Yeah they just seeded 10.8.1 to developers, so it should be out soon...

Late 2008 MacBook (polycarbonate) on Lion. I would have upgraded to Mountain Lion if mine was officially supported. I know it's definitely possible to install it; not sure if I should do it though.

  • 5 weeks later...

I'm running Snow Leopard on a Macbook i was given for free. As it's the first Mac i've owned after being a long time Windows user, i'm still figuring things out.

I unearthed a MB that I havent used in a while and its running 10.7.4 (dont know the names). Is there any reason to upgrade to 10.8?

    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.

    • They have lots of info on me, I have a facebook account and have done so for years, it was the thing to have then. My phone number is not on it. I don't have the Facebook app on my phone these days, just the messenger part, and only for a couple of people to contact me, most will text me via SMS or phone. I agree, Meta, like others, even without an account will know something about me. Just have to try and keep some things private Also, never saw the need for Whatsapp, people used to ask for me to join it, but as I said to them, I have SMS and a phone, use that, or email
