UGH i hate it! I WANT A MAC SOOO BAD so i can work on my stuff on a nice good comp, but it wont really run BF2 so im not so sure but... idk


Don't you hate Windows???

[House MD]

I had a mac and I went back to windows, not many games and pratically no windows aps work with it...

[ATHFBlink]

Well the reason is, a mac is basically a work computer, flash, movies, graphics, websites... and thats what i need it for... i do also wanna play WoW and BF2, WoW is on mac tho but BF2 isnt :'(

[Bryan]

Isn't there some software that let's you operate a Windows OS on a Mac? Or is it the hardware that wont run BF2?

[Charmender]

Dude just get a mac and then bootloader, when you wna play games load windows, when you want to work load mac osx

[ATHFBlink]

I think u can run BF2 on a XP OS emulation, but the problem is i think it probably lowers the performance alot...

Yeah I downloaded it, however it's VERY slow.. but with the new intel based macs it's probably faster, however I doubt you will be able to find drivers for your mac gfx cards for windows..

I got the same problem while i was doing something in photoshop. I was so pissed . Macs are pretty good but i wouldnt say that they are the shiz. Why dont you try the move to linux, its great

Linux is only great if you have patience and about 15-20 hours to spend getting things to run right. Honestly, I doubt that's what he's looking for.

I'm on linux, and I also got a mac... and I simply love it

[Cataliste]

Solution. Downlaod Linux (Kubuntu is teh sexeh!). WHoever said dual boot windows and OSx, you are a fucking moron. Mac and Windows have completely different hardware types. Linux can run on a Mac (PowerPC) and on a regular PC, but Mac can not run on a PC, nor Windows on a PowerPC.

Just dual boot Linux, Linux is damn sexy. Trust me, you will fall in love once you get the feel!

Wow, Cataliste, welcome to a year ago.

Mac now runs on an Intel chipset. Meaning Windows XP can be installed AND it works perfectly.
Go to apple.com and look up "Boot Camp:" Apple's own software that will install XP on the machine (provided you have an installation disc).

[XenoCyde]

That is saved for the "OMG WHO IS BETTER" thread. Flame wars abound in that area.

I never have any of those errors in very unlucky situations. I only receive errors like that when I'm pushing the system too hard and/or trying something I haven't before.

[Archon]

My computer is relatively problem-free during those kind of things.

But, long time no see Thursday.

Dan r u kidding me? I've had a mac before and it's like nothing like this... He's like talking about a damn windows PC it sounds like

[Gargar]

I use windows i have almost never had a problem from windows ever.
It depends on how you take care of your pc.

Just get a iMac and use a boot loader. Mac OS X for work, Windows XP for gaming. Yummy.

[Grizzly]

But macs are so much more expensive. 'Specially iBooks.

Yep. I actually agree to this. That is why I myself do not have a new iMac
If I work next summer though, I can get one with an employee discount, or even free if my employer pays for it with a member grant.

[amyjia]

AWww.. lol Have yall seen those Mac Vs. Pc commercials with the young guy as the Mac and the middle aged guy as the PC..lol.. It does make Macs look good..

[Justin]

Its odd. I never get that error in photoshop or flash, and I work in both a lot. I usually get it in corrupt programs. Like if I just downloaded a program and I opened it then BAM error. Close it, open it again, same thing happens. It never just happens for no reason. I would recomend doing a disk check or something D:

Okay, did you compare the quality and speed of the ibooks to windows laptop? theyre REALLY good
