Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

Thanks Justen, I kinda wish that the MpC ren was able to run with android or google computers. However, they set it up to run on macks. It's all good though 'cause it would take me a minute to get both the mack and the M.P.C. Renasance. Anyway, I hope one day they'll at least equip Google/android

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

EEven though I'm an android person, I have to say that even though Mack may be a joke to you, they're running the game right now. The computer for google can't even write offline. Nor does it have accessable software for music. I wish they did 'cause it would make my android life eeasier

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

It's a simple matter to install raspbian on your raspberry pi, modify it with Mike Ray's pispeak code, and have a fully operational computer that (even with a case and battery pack) will still fit nicely in a large pocket. Of course, keyboards and thigns add to that, I don't carry mine

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

You know I have been debating etting a pie. It can run windows 10 iot (internet of things) core, as well as arch and other linux distros but I havn't bothered with it. Every time I start rationalising a computer, a new tablet, I start asking myself what I want. To be honest now we have

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

When I need a program that doesn't exist on the mac, I either go to places like sourceforge and find one, or I sit down and write my own. I realize this option isn't open to all, but to be honest, I've had to write very few apps for myself. Especially since I'm more a terminal guy than a

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

Exactly. I have a mac that runs Windows. I can tell you from experience that I have many, many fewer errors as opposed to running Windows on a regular PC. On 7/26/16, Tim Morris wrote: > Windows, linix, and macs do have there place for what they can do. > However,as far as

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

Windows, linix, and macs do have there place for what they can do. However,as far as building a windows box to equal a mac is more trouble because of the faults of windows. Anyone that has a mac and ran windows can tell you windows runns better on a mac. The reason macs are high priced is

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

I have never seen the logic in using something "just because," but I take Linux much more seriously than Mac OS. If I ever have need to use Linux, then I will look into it, but I do not foresee such a need. On 7/24/16, Devin Prater wrote: > I could go for Windows, but

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

I could go for Windows, but Linux, to me holds the most promise. I can always run Windows in vmware player, which is free on Linux, or even virtual box, which is accessible there too. I can even play video games, and the controller can vibrate, within Linux, because the drivers are made by the

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

Yes, that is fair: the Mac being fairly beginner proof, I mean to say. Happily, Windows these days is not so easily broken, i.e. back in the bad old days of Win 95/98, where it did not take much to crash the computer. XP introduced a much needed level of stability, and for the time, it was a

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

The mac in my view, is better for beginning computer users. Now that I'm slightly more advanced, I want more powerful applications, and way better braille support. But that is not possible with the Mac. Besides that, there are very little games for the Mac, and vmware fusion costs, whereas

Re: [Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

I have no issues with Linux; in fact, I have contemplated playing around with that particular operating system. Macs are jokes precisely because I can build a superior machine for less than half the cost (including the operating system). More importantly, the Mac has poor application support

[Audyssey] mac is a joke (was windows xp,

I don't understand why you would say this. I've been using a mac for more than 10 years, and it's done everything I needed it to do for that entire time. I've had very few issues with my macs, other than normal wear and tear on the machines. In fact, I've had much better luck with my macs
