[QUOTE="Emrys, post: 810, member: 2"] Gonna put this here, because it doesn't really belong to any of the other forums... What are you using for hardware/software? I am using an iMac 17" G4 800Mhz with 768 MB of RAM. I have 10.2.3 I believe, and it is pretty cool. I am starting to get used to working with a Mac, as I am an NT/2000 sysadmin, it is kinda weird to work with OSX. Like I said in an a post in the OSX Games section, I will probably buy a tower next time for the upgradablility of it. I would like to upgrade my video card, and be able to shove more ram into. If I could get 2 gig of PC2100 into this thing it would probably scream. But right now, it has its times when it isn't so responsive. But I am getting used to that. It is a good trade off for stability :) A few seconds here, don't need to reboot there... It's worth it. Also, they keyboard is incredibly different. I have one of the white pro keyboards. The keys are so soft that I sometimes slide off the key I'm looking for and hit the one next to it. I hope they come out with a lighted pro keyboard, like the keyboards on the new PowerBooks! Finally, where is the **** Insert key? Or is there one? I'm so used to using VI and hitting Insert where, well where I want to insert something. [/QUOTE]
