Unfortunately, this virus is all over the place. I actualy found a virus on my PC this weekend which was the culprit behind all my crashes and stuff. Im still trying to fix the damn thing. This is what makes me hate Windows sooooooooo much......you fix one problem, another arises. nothing is ever easy in Windows. Im in a gaming clan also, and 3 other members were going through formats (out of maybe 12 members) of their drives and reinstalls. Why dont people stand up in the Wintel world??? This is ridiculous.....I was so frustrated the last month of crashes and instability with WinXP, that after not even being able to restart at all on the PC, I ended up punching the front panel of the PC, and cracking the plastic empty drive bay covers. THIS is why I love Macs....for their easy fixability, and great stability. What good is all the speed on my PC (dual 1 Ghz, GeForce 4 Ti 400) when my Umax is running circles around it with uptime and productivity???? People are just so used to the crashing in Windows that they think its just a normal part of life, like taking a shower, or taking your car for a refill of gas. People have no idea how good of an alternative they can have. I believe it to be the FEW people that actually do have stability with Wintel, are the ones who harp the most about Windows (media, journalists, analysts), are also the ones who dont do ANYTHING with their Wintel's other than surf the web and email and Office. I've used just about every professional graphics program on the PC side (Maya, Softimage, Max, Photoshop, After Effects, etc) as well as smaller programs, games and utilities such as Hotline, Return To Castle Wolfenstein, Norton, Radient, Explorer, Notepad, etc. crashing is a regular occurance. Programs mysteriously closing...Connection Interrupts during online play....BSOD's....these happen so often to ME, a Mac user, that Im getting to the point of throwing this POS out into the driveway, shooting it to nothing with a shotgun, and filming it all to send to Apple for their new Switch Ad campaign.
God bless Apple and their sanity inducing OS. I'd really be in a mental house with it. =( Sorry for the rant....it's been a long month. -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
