What OS do you use?

[Seeten]

My Desktop is a PC, my laptop(ironically, my gaming PC that I bring to D&D nights) is a Mac, OS X.

But sadly my end is split on the OSX side. Sigh.

I just don't get this.

I just don't get this.

You don't get why he's forced to use a Mac, or why he doesn't like it?

Ankh-Morpork Guard: Get yourself a Microsoft mouse and install the official drivers from Microsoft. It makes it feel like a PC mouse. It goes a long way towards making OS X tolerable for me.

Forced to use a Mac because everyone else around me does and we need to be compatible. Sadly, the impression is still that Macs are so much better for graphic design...but today, its not really true. In fact, things are about even.

As for the suggestions...I like it. I think I have an extra mouse buried away somewhere that should work. The mouse is a big problem for me, as I find it so much less useful and more a hindrance. Course, that's only one side of the problem. I still don't like the OS at all.

But hey, not really much of a choice but to deal with it.

Small wonder, considering that it's pretty much the same software for most platforms.

Bye

Yep. They're better for so much more than just graphics.

Yeah...like gaming?

Oh, wait!

My current computer is a PowerMac G4 400Mhz running MacOS 10.3.9 and OS 9. This is my third Mac and I will be buying my fourth next month (getting a Mac Pro with OS 10.5 as soon as the OS is released) .

I do use XP at work, but the poll asked for OS at home (although I am considering installing XP on the new computer just in case I need it to work from home).

Like remedial computer training?

It does? I'm sorry, I must not be understanding what you mean. What does it matter if you have multiple computers or one? You use WinXP and OS X, and check both.

Haha, yes, the poll has a major flaw between the monitor and the chair.
