The article does not reveiw Vista running on a Mac Mini. I don't even
accept the results of the Upgrade Advisor as it stands today for my own
machines (the UA is itself still in beta).

So? Dont worry, apple will be sure to make macs run vista,
so they can be able to sell more machines
 
I'm not worried. Microsoft benefits also. Just adding clarification to
your post.
 
What would you bet that Apple will advertise that the Mac is the best
platform for running Windows Vista in 2007?

I hope they do. And I hope they are right. The more Intel Macs sell the
more copies of Windows get sold. A healthy Apple Corp. is good for
everyone.

My favorite clueless quote (from a Mac forum) was this one about Boot Camp:

"Boot Camp is gonna kill Micro$uck because now people can just run Windoze
on their Macs."

People like you make my stomach tumble! YUK!!!!

I bet your worse nighmare is linux... you wake up with sweat on your
forehead each night,
terrified of the man eating penguin!
 
My response, "I hope they do. And I hope they are right," was to the
statement by Willaim Mosher ("What would you bet that Apple will advertise
that the Mac is the best platform for running Windows Vista in 2007?"

There is nothing wrong with my wishing others, including Apple, well. As
for your comment, "I bet your worse nighmare is linux", you just happend on
the wrong guy for that statement.

See: http://vpc.visualwin.com/ and scroll down. See how many times my name
appears in the Submitted By column concerning the testing of Linux distros.

I'm sorry that you just can't understand that someone who uses Windows could
have no animosity towards Mac and Linux users (or vice versa).

And yes, I own a Mac.
 
Good show Colin... indeed you seem to be neutral and like all types
of computer systems, because each one has to offer something different.

I too am like you... and I am constantly learning.. about everything.

AND... you remained calm and polite even though I had an insulting style
(this was a deception,
I had no real reason for this.. I was just fooling around), you just
explained the situation as it is.

Great! You remained positive.. and that is a great asset!

thanks for that page... I might need it for reference... :-)
 
I do not have any animosity towards Mac users and Linux users. It is these
crazy OS evangelist types that are stupid.

"always" is a very long time... its an infinite amount of time...
and infinite means that anything is possible.
Theoretically if indeed time is infinite then all possible combinations of
everything
will occure in the future.
 
nah.. I use all OS known to man....

I wonder what OS they used on the roswell ship?... hmmmmm.....
 
A problem the community has to overcome before it reach the mainstream is
the conflict between the use of proprietary device drivers and the
restrictions in the GPL.
 
This problem will be solved "automatically" if a distro becomes sooo good
that everyone will
download it to try it, even if some of the hardware is not functioning.
Ubuntu is trying.. but its not there yet..

We need something surprisingly good. Its going to happen, but who is going
to do it?
The group who does, will change the world. But I believe behind the group
will be one mastermind.
One person, who will take advantange of the situations and turn everything
upside down.

Once a distro gets such attention, then the companies themselves will scurry
to make drivers....
so they wont lose a part of the action....or they will open up the code for
"vanilla" drivers.

All they want is to make money... right?
 
Not if it takes recompiling the kernel to install a proprietary device
driver for a consumer level product. Geeks do it but consumers don't. It
doesn't have to be that way but under the GPL you're not supposed to
distribute a distro with any proprietary code in it.
