Phoenix and Vista...

[Disc]

I'm running dual core and a Radeon X1900 and since installing vista, Phoenix seems to have taken a performance hit.
I do have a 30inch apple display though, so its probably a result of aero running at 2650x1600 in the background. I'll try turning off aero tonight to see if ti makes a difference.

Vista is a system hog and requires a decent intel chip to run well, thats why theres about 10 version's of Vista. It's also why your system took a performance hit badly.

OSX 2 versions 1 normal user the 2nd is OSX Server.

Can you send me that monitor and graphic card please

amazing how many people use Macs.....

just one or two here then...

BootCamp will become useless within 2 months time and then Leopard will be needed.

LOL......I heard a rumour that Apple were going to make an Intel Machine that could have Vista loaded on it.....Now that i WOULD buy..... In my humble opinion Apple should offer this as their styling is really good. I've never met anyone who thinks their stuff looks crap. I'd buy an apple with those cool se-through speakers....IF I could run a windows OS. I have no love for Bill (well...I do a bit...I make a living based on the revolution he started....so can't and shouldn't bite the hand that fed me) but there's no getting away from the fact his OS is very prolific and 99.99% of all software is written for it first...and will continue to be as long as his market is the largest commercially for software vendors.

yup you can buy any Mac and make it run just windows if you want to.

But Apple is unlikly to ever offer a pre-installed windows/Mac ever.

I'm the other mac user then

Not worried about leopard as i'll be making the move - boot camp license wont be an issue... but i bet there will be a few not migrating to leopard who wil care their licenses will expire - by then i'm sure an open source boot camp type of thing will be about...

Isnt leoparp out this month... or will there be another delay of, what, 6 months - i'm sure bill g had a big part to play in its delay... just to ensure vista gets established first!

Anyway back to real chat - helicopters

The iPhone is the reason for Apples delay on Lepoard they pulled the programers to make sure they could get the iPhone out in time and working.

Lepoard rumors to be out end of October or November but exactly when who knows. You can get it already if you know where to look

how good is that 30 inch monster screen then ?

The 30 inch monitor is amazing and I never once regret buying it. I think they are a good investments because monitors tend to last for quite a few years as apposed to your pc/mac which might need upgrading more often.

I also watch alot of tv shows and movies on it so its really nice for that and of course phoenix is fantastic in full screen mode.

I think I'm going to downgrade to XP so that phoenix runs nice and fast again.
