You mean no one here had to buy a new printer just to work with Vista?

Xris · January 22, 2008, 08:17:12 PM

no lol :D that seems random ....

Overstatement · January 22, 2008, 08:22:08 PM

It was in one of those "PC vs Mac" commercials. Duh!

"Ask not what Vista can do for you, ask what you can buy for Vista!"

LOL forgot that one :)

Every time I see one of those commercials I get sooo pissed. The latest one was Apple showing off "time machine" just a fancy word for system restore that PC's have had for years. And they try and show it as a brand new never invented feature that only Apple has. Fucking ridiculous. Fuck Apple. I think I take it wayy to personal but damnit they are making fun of PC users and I am one of them!

its not a system restore. well you can restore your system from it but it does exactly what its name says. you go back in time pretty much to any point in time to grab files that have gotten corrupted or lost originals. take the time machine and get them back easily. its a handy tool that is a lifesaver and it freakin' is so cool - i love it. osX > windows any.

Xris · January 23, 2008, 12:41:51 AM

you can do that with windows too its called NT Backup, and its been around since Windows NT. You can even put the file on a dif HD, tapes, CD-R/Ws, DVDs, or even a USB key

didnt know you can restore single files or single applications to original state in NT. i also love timemachine for backing up my files automatically. mabye NT has this feature too - i dont know cuz i dont work on a PC. i only game on PC ^^.

Now presenting Macbook Air, the thinniest notebook in the world*!

*DVD player is not included.

Farley4Fan · January 23, 2008, 02:08:58 AM

Lol, the dvd discs are too thick to put into them.

Now presenting the macbook air, so thin you can make paper airplanes out of it!

No directions included...

seefoo. · January 23, 2008, 02:46:56 AM

imacs and macbooks are for noobs. the air - good internet, mail, movie and music player. maybe next year they put in dvd playa. also you forgot about the innovations besides the paper airplane modE! new multifinger function mouse pad (just iphone or itouch). what else can i say but iphones n ipods are cherry sync...always had problems on PC.

Farley4Fan · January 23, 2008, 03:12:47 AM

You mean they sync easily? Meh, whatever. Zunes sync fast enough for me to my PC. That's all I need. I don't need something so thin I can fit it in my damn wallet lol

Seriously, Iphones are cool and all, but they are just blown out of the water by high end mp3 players like my 80gb zune.

BTW, what video/graphics card would you guys suggest? My PC runs Crysis nicely on med-high, but I'd like to get a graphics card capable of running it on high-very high at all times. What would you guys suggest that isn't so expensive? Like under 200 bucks atleast?

yea its really cool, didnt have time to mention that vista has a new version called Windows Backup, and yes you can set it to auto.

Personally I like my phone, its 8GB which is lots, seeing as i only have about 2GB of music

Farley4Fan · January 23, 2008, 03:33:26 AM

I've got like 7 movies and hundreds of songs on my zune and I still have 78.12 Gb left :D It's like infinity basically.

Any suggestions on good graphics cards guys?

Ion.67 · January 23, 2008, 04:33:50 AM

Hundreds of songs isn't that many.

Get the 8800 GT if your into it. Best bang for your buck.
