Initially it was a Mac Mini Core Solo - the one and only!

Swapped out the Core Solo for a T7200 (2.0GHz) and gave it 2GB RAM, replacing 512MB.

Currently still going strong, has Leopard on it running fine. Talks to my Windows network fine, plays all my media fine - best HTPC you can get!

Well I just got my first Mac. I've always been a PC user but with the recent advances in battery life plus the price reduction on their 13 Inch models got me switching over to MAC OS X.

I purchased the 13 inch MacBook Pro, 2.26 GHz; 4 GB Ram; 250 GB HD

So far, after playing with it for two days I can say that I am absolutely satisfied.

Yesterday I was measuring battery life, I had NeoOffice open, FireFox with 8 tabs, and running three ssh terminal sessions to some of the servers at work.

I tried to simulate a regular working condition and instead of working on my two desktops at work I did most of the work on my new MacBook. I got amazing 6:23 out of the battery :)

Since I tend to travel a lot Mobility and an extended battery life are a great plus for me.

Also I have to give Apple credit for the great case design. Is light and sturdy, and it looks great.

I also installed VirtualBox with Windows Vista Business 32bit, and it works great.

I needed the Windows Vista just in case I needed some of my work applications.

I was thinking of partitioning the drive and installing a separate partition of Vista, using boot camp, but I dont think I'll be using Vista that much and is just more convenient launching Vista out of my desktop without rebooting the system, just to access and app or two.

Cheers

    • I disagree here sorry. The majority of their customers are corporations who are locked in to their eco system and have no choice. Private individuals don't contribute that much to their income.
    • Weekend PC Game Deals: Anno 117, Final Fantasy VII, Rematch, and more by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Weekend PC Game Deals is where the hottest gaming deals from all over the internet are gathered into one place every week for your consumption. So kick back, relax, and hold on to your wallets. The Epic Games Store's mystery giveaways may have ended, but its regular freebies didn't miss a step this week. The double drop was for copies of Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. Speed Freeks lands for multiplayer racing fans, but with plenty of competitive shooting elements too. You will be piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures while trying to complete objectives and pass finish lines. Next, Ouroboros King is a crossover between chess and tactical roguelikes, offering the chance to create your own army with special rules to beat incoming foes on the board. The double giveaway on the Epic Games Store will be available until June 11, and replacing it will be Citizen Sleeper and ROBOBEAT. The Humble Store brought a new charity bundle to check out this week too. Landing with the name The Complete Inkle Library, this is a large collection of interactive narrative puzzle games from the publisher Inkle. This begins with Heaven's Vault, four parts from the Sorcery series, 80 Days, Overboard, and Pendragon: Narrative Tactics within the starting tier for $9. Hopping up a step to the $12 tier gets you TR-49, Expelled, and A Highland Song for paying at least $12. If you go for the $20 tier, you get four e-books from the Heaven's Vault series. The bundle has almost three weeks on its counter before it goes away.

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
