Apple may have shipped 2.5 million Macs in spring thanks to Vista


Recommended Posts

in my opinion, the only people that have problems w/ Vista are the ones that arent using it.

Thats quite an arrogant attitude. You are basically saying that Vista its flawless and everyone who uses it likes it.

I have known many, many people who doesnt like it but I know that doesnt mean Vista its unversally unlikeable.

Vista is fine - most of the problems I had, last year, where because of problems with Nvidia drivers, and ATI has gotten most of their bugs shaken out too.

It was delayed, yet rushed out of the gate, somewhat like Leopard was IMO, but it's gotten better in most areas too.

New XP machines had bloatware, but Vista has taken it to new levels...that, and the increased HW requirements really tax startup processes.

The problem I've run into with OSX, is the crummy office suites, it's really a killer for me.

I dumped Office 2008 the other day, but Numbers is still completely worthless for me - dear Apple, if you really are serious about the enterprise, get off your consumer apps kick, and make a real Office competitor. Until then, Office 2007 FTW and maybe after.

I do not like Vista in the enterprise that much, it works fine on new our Dells, but most of our PCs are older Dell P4, 512 MB types, XP Pro works great, whereas Vista's UAC causes issues when installing ODBC drivers and some other software, it takes a bit longer setting up a new PC. Thankfully, we don't use Exchange at work; our Windows admin hates it, and she wants nothing to do with it.

Are you actually questioning the fact that Macs are the new "cool in thing"? If so... please open your eyes! At the Uni where I work there are hundreds if not thousands of students walking around with Macbooks/iPods/iPhones.

Of course that its the reason for some, but also you are denying the possibility that some other people actually find the system to be better.

dear Apple, if you really are serious about the enterprise, get off your consumer apps kick, and make a real Office competitor.

God, I can't agree with you more than I do right now. :p

One of the main reasons I have moved to a Macbook? Vista. :) Also I will stick with XP as long as possible personally, working as an IT Enginner I just find XP better. (Stopping there as I don't want this swayed off-topic).

Nice one Apple imo. :happy:

I think there is a very important factor that was just touched on, ie the students. We are coming into an age of computing where a much larger, younger audience is using technology before and can easy adapt to change more so than older generations can. Thus with this in mind, the younger generations are more inclined to try something new out in technology that is not too familiar with them, while others may want to keep the same as they do not want change. This is a very important factor along with others like stability, ease of use, etc, as if people can take the change and look to alternatives they will, and the younger generations are definately willing to do so, even if they aren't so tech savvy as people who work and troubleshoot computers, etc, they still will go for change if they like it.

I know that they are the in technology at the moment, but that is not solely due to looks. Apple is the best selling computer in higher education, students not only enjoy the looks of Apple's equipment but also the stability and increased functionality over traditional PC's. :)

iPods are everywhere, again, best (arguable by some, not for this thread) and most established portable entertainment device on the market.

iPhones, same as above only with phone capabilities. :)

Looks count, functionality counts for more.

iPods are okay, the fact you have to sync through iTunes is a killer. You can buy a Cowon iAudio which doesn't rely on crappy iTunes for less ???.

You don'seriously/b> believe that the iPhone is the best in it's class? You can buy cheapand/b> better, you just miss out on the Apple logo, the lush interface and the street cred.

I love iTunes, I have loved iTunes since I can remember. Syncing my iPod and iPhone through iTunes provides me a single point of control for both devices, I wouldn't trade this for anything!

I do think the iPhone is best in its class, however, the iPhone is its own class as there has yet to be a device like it. (Lets be honest, the knock offs don't count, and that counts major brand the ones.) iPhone is a Digital Life Center, it can contain your pictures, music, movies...everything all provided in a simple, easy to use interface. Add in the phone features and true Mobile Internet and it is the best in class device and beyond.

Some of the iPod features depends of a database file that iTunes knows how to build. Still there are other apps that can do the same, you are not tied to iTunes.

Odd, I've setup AD on tons of Macs without issue... If you could be more specific as to the problems you're having I'd be happy to make suggestions.

As for the memory, can you perhaps toss me a G5 Model Number that uses that memory so I can look it up specifically, I haven't been able to find any G5 memory that expensive.

The main issue I was having was after I integrated it in AD, desktop Icons and the startup items (preferences/users) never saved. Weird issue that I havnt had time to troubleshoot.

As far as the memory...i dont have a G5 close that I can get hte exact model number. Look on Apple's store and do teh memory selector. Select the newest g5s.

You can use the new version of Winamp to sync iPods....Winamp is free

A fair bit of Vista being slow/having issues is probably these OEM manufacturers absolutely strangling the PC's with bloat - 95 included applications, ect.

If I bought any good new PC today, reformatted it and installed Vista myself it would be fine. Not to mention a Vlited copy of Vista, but I won't go that far as everyday people would never use Vlite, let alone know what it is.

However I will add, as a negative for MS, I'd never install Vista if I couldn't use Vlite. It is bloated, and MS should offer more options when your installing to customize your installation.

use Floola to manage your iPod on your PC.

I honestly can't recommend this enough - http://www.floola.com/modules/wiwimod/

You can even put the exe on your ipod hard drive and when you go around to a mates, just plug your ipod in, and load floola.exe off your ipod.

iTunes is a POS on Windows.

To be fair, most if not all Mac applications work great on a Mac, but are awful on a Windows PC (iTunes, Safari and Quicktime).

I own a Mac and a PC by the way.

Most major PC manufacturers dont include alot of crapware...you even have the option to have the PC shipped with a blank HD. I know back in the day PCs used to come with a lot of crap on it...not today. We order Dells at work and all that is on them is Windows XP.

Several years ago they used to come with toolbars, desktop searches, crappy antivirus, AOL...and much more...at least now you have the option to not have this isntalled...of course, if you dont choose this option then you will get a bunch of crap on the PC.

Most everyday buyers will probably associate all this extra content as value for money...

Which some of it is, but a lot of it is overkill, and isn't the most efficient choice for the PC (Slow/poor performing Antivirus, ect).

However, yes, I do know things have got better at least (Y)

Just what Dell's do you order anyhow? The Optiplex and Vostro's come with almost a bare installation of Windows on them for one. I have not booted up a fresh Dimension in a very long time so I can't say how much stuff they pre-load on them. The main reason especially on cheaper computers the crap is there is because the manufacture gets money for loading it thus able to ship the computer out cheaper than it could without the extra junk.

Dell charges extra to the ordering company/organization to ship that way. If memory serves me right it's $10/$15 per PC depending on contract with the orderer.

Fair enough, iTunes is bloated IMO. Foobar2000 has more support for audio files, FLAC etc, replaygain tagging. You can even sync your music to your iPod using plugins. I just don't like how Apple try and lock everything to iTunes, which is inferior in so many ways - it doesn't even play my FLAC files.

I mean, what do they put in iTunes? It's 57MB, Foobar2000 is 2.71MB, B-B-B-Bloatware!

There are phones out there that are better than the iPhone, the fact the iPhone has a brilliant interface is a huge plus. But other than interface, the iPhone hasn't really broken boundaries.

Given my entire Audio Collection is AAC / Apple Lossless formats don't matter to me. :)

As for iPhone, I've never once seen a phone that has as robust of a web browser or just all around ease of use like it.

Features are a wonderful thing, however if you can't use them due to bad interfaces or poor implementation what is the point of having them? That is what the majority of 'Superphones' out there suffer from.

iPhone provides full, easy, access to each and every feature it has...that alone breaks the boundaries. If you don't believe that, look at the mobile industry, every company out there is attempting to make an iPhone knock-off styled phone... Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, people don't flatter things that aren't top of the line.

Apple have nothing locked to the iPod.

I just posted a freeware application above in response to your comment that will completely manage your ipod.

iTunes works great on a Mac, but is pretty awful on a PC.

Not really....the Optiplex systems were order are pretty cheap. I think Dell and others are learning that the crapware can mess with the system and annoy the hell out of users.

I helped a friend by a laptop a couple years ago. It was a Compaq since she didnt want to spend a lot of money. It had a few crapware installed on it...but that was about it.

Care to explain what these other boundaries are? Besides the 2MP camera that everyone seems to care so much about. The interface is everything in a phone: it's what you actually use. There's not a lot of hardware you can change. And it has an amazing SDK that will produce incredible applications come July 11.

So you've switched/obtained your entire music collection so that it will work with Apples music player? That speaks volumes.

There are knockoffs of the iPhone because like I said, the interface is brilliant. If all phones don't have something vaguely resembling the interface on iPhones within a few years the companies will be in alot of trouble. People expect an interface like the iPhone because it's next gen. The fact it has a 2MP camera in is a HUGE letdown, surely they could do better than that?

What exactly is in iTunes for it to come in a 57MB installer? I know they tried to bundle Safari in iTunes updates to get people to unknowingly download their browser... but come on :)

I disagree. I dont like a lot of crap on my phone. All I do on my phone is call, text, and occasionally take a picture. I want to be able to make a quick call without having to click on several menu items first. I am not saying the iPhone is like this..i never used one. I tried a BB Que for about a day and got annoyed with it. Yea, the phone is cool and all but I like to only have to push 2 buttons to make a call. I do have a Que for work but I am required to be able to check my email from wherever I am since I dont always have my laptop with me.

And there are already phones out like the iPhone. Palm, Samsung, and I believe LG all have similar interfaces. I dont think all companies will have the same or similar interface as people dont like to have the same things as everyone else. At least I dont and I am sure many others will as well. I am also sure that someone will come out with a new/better interface than the iPhone soon. Its all about competition and out doing hte other.

I think the Mac sales have gone up thanks to the success of what we know as iPods. I don't think there is a single person who doesn't know what an iPod is. Apple was pretty non-existent as a company until the iPod came out and since then Apple has become a household name; thanks to the iPod.

Vista may have contributed to Apple's surge in sales because Vista has been a huge let-down for MS. It failed to deliver the OS we expected, while Leopard slapped it upside down.

iTunes does suck on Windows, no question, that's why I've been using the foobar2000 + iPod plugin for a really long time. No problems at all. iTunes on a Mac is great though. (I've used it)

I myself will be purchasing my first Mac this fall, and hopefully will never look back. I'll probably end up switching my family to Mac too. :)

Rogers has been anal regarding the iPhone, so I decided to wait and buy it from a Apple store. However that won't be happening, so I went and got myself a LG Vu. :p

Actually I purchased much of the music from the iTunes Music Store, the stuff I've converted from my CD Collection I wanted the best quality I could get with some space savings so I went with AAC and then Apple Lossless. The fact that it works with my iPod and iPhone is just a perk. :)

You know, people complain about the 2MP camera on the iPhone but I've seen better pictures from the iPhone than I've seen from some N95's which have 5MP if memory serves me right. Still, a camera on a phone is still only as good as it's optics. If you want a camera, get a camera. If you want something to take quick, decent, fun pictures and spur of the moment things, then use your phone. Don't try to take production photos with your phone, if you do...wow.

    • You sound like some Ukrainians in Crimea before 2014: "I didn't vote for USSR disbanding - I want Ukraine to be part of Russia again" 🤣
    • Uninstalr 3.1 by Razvan Serea Introducing Uninstalr: Easy to use and very accurate software uninstaller for Windows. It can uninstall multiple apps at the same time and we think it’s pretty cool. Developed with expertise by Macecraft Software - the minds behind jv16 PowerTools. Key Features Batch uninstall many apps at the same time. Supports unattended uninstallation of apps. Supports monitoring of new software installations. Also detects portable apps and previously uninstalled software leftovers. Shows all the data added to your system by installed software on a file by file basis. Shows all the data it will remove before starting the uninstallation. Filter and search the list of installed software. According to our benchmark, Uninstalr is the most accurate software uninstaller by leaving the least amount of leftovers when uninstalling apps. Supports detection and uninstallation of Microsoft Store, Steam, Big Fish Game System, Chocolatey, NuGet and Ninite installed software. Supports Windows Dark Mode. Supports Windows 11, 10, 8 and 7. Comes with these translations builtin: Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Czech, Danish, English, Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian and Vietnamese. Has a single executable file portable version and a normal setup version. Uninstalr is freeware, lightweight and easy to use. No bells and whistles, no nonsense. Uninstalr’s custom uninstallation engine has a dedicated support for the detection and uninstallation of 15 types of apps: Normal Windows apps Microsoft Store apps Portable apps Chocolatey apps Ninite apps PortableApps.com apps Steam games EA App games Epic Games Store games Riot platform games GOG Galaxy games WarGaming.net games Battle.net games itch.io games Big Fish platform games Uninstalr 3.1 changelog: Key Changes Uninstalr now starts and shows the list of installed apps faster after the initial scan has been completed, and with much smaller memory usage. Uninstalr now detects and highlights apps that automatically start with Windows. Greatly improved the detection of portable apps. Improvements New feature: Uninstalr now detects and highlights apps that automatically start with Windows. New feature: Uninstalr now highlights possible leftovers and apps from Russia and China. This can be disabled from the Settings. New feature: A new filter that allows you to show only software that is installed to other than the system drive. New feature: Users can now select to always do the deepest and the most accurate scan for installed apps, at the cost of the analysis taking a longer time. Greatly improved the detection of portable apps, such as added dedicated support for MiTeC, EZ Tools and SysInternals tools. Improved support for portable apps installed via Windows System Control Center (WSCC). NirSoft portable apps are now listed with "NirSoft" prefix for easier identification. Improved the speed of uninstalling apps. The main installed software listing search will now find "Xbox GameBar" if you search for "Game bar" and vice versa. The tooltip now displays more detailed information of the installed apps, such as its registry key and uninstaller path. The links in the About section now look more like clickable links. The main menu is now more clearly indicated in the main user interface. Microsoft Teams Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office ships with some Windows 11 installations and is now considered a builtin Windows app and only listed if builtin Windows apps filter is enabled. Added a Help button to the main user interface that opens the help section of the website. Added an option not to close Uninstalr after uninstallation. If you open the Uninstalr website from the app, the website now receives the version number of your current Uninstalr version and warns you if you are using anything but the latest version. Improved the accuracy of the New Software Monitor. Improved confirmation messages for Steam and other platform related uninstalls. Improved the uninstallation performance of Steam games. Fixes: Known bug fixed: Some installed app names are capitalized incorrectly, such as "CCleaner Portable" is listed as "ccleaner portable". Known bug fixed: Some apps can be listed twice, for example, Smart Defrag can be listed once as Smart Defrag and then Smart Defrag Home. Known bug fixed: On the pre-uninstallation screen, the Scripts checkbox can be checked by default on Dark Mode but not on the normal mode. Known bug fixed: Perform Deep Analysis can be started only by clicking the button, not via the Right Click menu, main menu or F4 keyboard shortcut. Muse Hub could be incorrectly listed as Adobe Muse. SyncTrayzor was incorrectly detected as two unrelated software, SyncTrayzor and Syncthing. Smart Defrag was incorrectly listed twice as Smart Defrag 11 and Smart Defrag Home. It was possible to enter non-printable characters to the search input boxes of the main screen, and the path listing screen, which caused the UI to look funny. Changing the translation from Settings, especially many times in a row, caused the UI to distort. If you had multiple instances of portable apps on your system, such as the 64b and 32b versions of the same portable app, typically only one of them was detected, not both. In some very rare cases, Uninstalr UI could start with random characters in its search input boxes, which could make the UI look rather confusing. This was a rare issue, only reported by two users. The pre-uninstallation screen could display non-existing paths for example as the software's installation directory or main exe file. This was a cosmetic issue. New Software Monitor cannot detect the installation of Claude. Selecting all the found software made the UI look funny with the top panel covering everything else (because the names of all the selected software were listed there). Sometimes a Steam game could be listed a normal app instead of a Steam game. If the system restart after an uninstallation is delayed, e.g. because of Windows Updates being installed, this additional delay is incorrectly added to the time how long the uninstallation process took. This cosmetic bug could cause the program incorrectly report an uninstallation time longer than the actual uninstallation time. Uninstalling Minecraft could simply fail. The Only scan the system drive for installed apps setting does not fully work. If some apps are installed to a non system drive and this setting is enabled, the app could still be detected and listed on the main user interface. Changing any settings could also incorrectly alter the Only Scan The System Drive For Installed Apps setting. Microsoft OneDrive and Copilot are not always detected. If you enter something to the search filter field, then select the text and press the Delete key, this triggers the Uninstall button click even if your intent was to delete the text input. If you press the F5 key to refresh the screen during the uninstallation loading screen, the program will crash. If you enabled some setting, such as "Do not analyze installed app installation sizes", it could automatically be unchecked later. Uninstalr doesn't warn you if you try to remove Fortec antivirus. There should be a warning if user attempts to remove any antivirus or antimalware type program. Such programs should not be uninstalled using a third party uninstaller, as they are typically protected against automated uninstallation, for security reasons. With "Do not analyze installed app installation sizes" option checked from the Settings, Uninstalr could still display some installation size related elements in the UI which was confusing. The "Only scan the system drive" option moved under Improve Scan Speed from the General settings. If two software have the exact same name and version number, selecting both of them for uninstallation fails because only one is actually selected. Sorting the installed apps by size sometimes fails and the order is incorrect. The "Don't show which paths are currently analyzed" did not work correctly - some parts of the UI still show the currently analyzed path with this setting checked. The "Don't list software less than 10 MB" filter did not work correctly - some apps smaller than 10 MB could still be listed. Uninstalr could start very quickly and display an empty list of detected apps. Restarting the app usually fixed the issue and the list of installed apps was properly displayed. If you placed portable Uninstalr to a same folder with other portable apps, those were not detected because Uninstalr automatically added its installation folder to the ignore list. When trying to uninstall some specific software, Uninstalr could get stuck on the Searching for more data relating to the app phase. Uninstalr could sometimes do a silent uninstallation even if user had unchecked the Perform a silent uninstallation option. Known issues: Uninstalr can fail to run with an Out Of Memory error in systems that have a lot of installed apps. Using the New Software Monitor tool multiple times during one session can cause the program to get stuck on the Scanning stage. The "uninstallation completed" message box sometimes closes when the user moves the mouse cursor over the button before user clicks it. There is no feedback for the user after Fix Information feature has been used. The Right Click menu's Select by publisher option can display the number of apps per each publisher without correct vertical alignment. The default user interface might not display all of the found installed apps if you have over 600 installed apps. If you do, using the Screen Reader Compatible Interface solves the issue. Leftover apptype filter checkbox is shown in red font only in Dark Mode. Clicking the app's icon from the Windows Taskbar doesn't minimize/restore the app like other apps. The warning about an app that user wishes to uninstall being related to some other app user did not select can sometimes be inaccurate. If app's language is changed without restarting Uninstalr, the list of installed software might not automatically refresh. When software is being uninstalled, the UI can say it is processing paths unrelating to the uninstalled app. This is purely cosmetic and does not mean these paths are removed. Uninstalr might not properly detect and/or uninstall Steam games if they are installed to a drive different than Steam's default location in C:\. You might see "This action is only valid for products that are currently installed" error message from Windows Installer during uninstallation. This is a cosmetic issue.

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I always do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions relays before defining it.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
