Apple Mac OS X 10.4.1 for Intel hits piracy sites


Recommended Posts

When Microsoft is just trying to fight in its 3 battles Apple is winning 2 and starting an advanced war:

Microsoft:

1 - Longhorn must be finished sometime in this decade (Too ugly to be true);

2 - MS needs to invade the music market, but how?

3 - MS is only software and it can be pirated.

Apple:

1 - Tiger is running and making Windows users dream;

2 - Apple dominates the music market;

3 - Apple is hardware and uses OSX to promote the plataform.

Who's winning and who needs help?

:whistle:

Two words... Market Share :yes:

P.S. Just seen Terry Nutkins when i was getting my lunch!

LMFAO

These GNAA guys are freaking hilarious -- Trolling slashdot, outspace? Jesus, This people are genius. LMFAO!!11one!!111

Well, whether is has been, or will be, leaked completely aside, it would be good if Apple DID release a special DEV only edition for us poor schmoes who'd love to try developing for the Mac, but cannot afford one...

Apple say they support open-source. They could help that along if they did this. Fine, make it limited, don't allow updates to it, don't provide support, but at least give us SOMETHING so we can develop for these machines! Hell, charge us for it if you want, I just want to try the thing and see what it's like to program with.

Plus... If current x86 users could try it out for a while (time limited copy?), there's a good chance when the Mactel models ARE released, people will buy them instead of a new Dell, especially if you can run Windows on it too!

Microsoft:

Who's winning and who needs help?

Apple = 2.5% market share

Windows et al = 97.5%

Ehm, who needs help?

You obviously don't get out much. Seriously, have you ever spoken to a girl without giving her your credit card number?

this is interesting

wonder if they allow hotlinking..

we'll see..

What codec is that .MOV file boss? My QT is choking on that one. I'm going to subscribe to this thread, but I'm hoping the install only looks for an Intel chip since I'm rocking my A64 :)

Ha ha ha! Oh gosh that's funny! That's really funny! Do you write your own material? Do you? Because that is so fresh. You know, I've, I've never heard anyone make that joke before. Hmm. You're the first. I've never heard anyone reference, reference that outside the program before. Because that's what the dog said on the show right? Isn't it? Without giving her your credit card number. And, and yet you've taken that and used it out of context to insult him in this everyday situation. God what a clever, smart boy you must be, to come up with a joke like that all by yourself. That's so fresh too. Any, any Titanic jokes you want to throw at us too as long as we're hitting these phenomena at the height of their popularity. God you're so funny!

That could be PearPC.

It did look kinda slow.

Really? I thought that was a pretty fast boot-up really.

Also, I'm thinking if these are basic Intel systems, or included basic Intel drivers, it'll be pretty easy to emulate the hardware at the very least.

One thing I have noticed in that video is the fact that the mouse cursor at a point jumps from the top left corner to the right side...also there are a bunch of real Mac's in the back of the screen they could have just somehow mirrored the screen.

well There is still one possibility no one yet raised!

what about emulation, if OSX x86 is going to be hardware locked, can't it be emulated, & without need for altivec & ppc instructions it would just fly!

Just think about those sad PearPC devolopers who just don't really have a project, now, will they continue to bang the dead horse & emulate PPC, or will they just start working on a version to support OSX on our lovely PC's!!! :devil:

Sure it could be a mirrored display but the video editor would have to go back in and modify each frame to say "Intel" instead of PowerPC.

PearPC also emulates a G3 so in that case About This Mac would say that.

I'd be really convinced if I saw System Profiler in action.

    • Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.
    • You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
    • Yes, THIS is wordart, not the styling that can now be done. Wordart was all about those curvy words, that you could change the path of, like making words go around a circle. I don't think it can be done now, right?
