Halo and Floodgate decided to load again. I'm so joyous because I can take screenshots of those levels.

Don't worry kirk...He's just boasting his e-peen by patching/illegally downloading a prepatched torrent (without owning leopard I mean) leopard to circumvent os x's apple-certified-hardware-only protection (violating the DMCA which can be considered illegal? not sure) and saying its better than a normal mac...Which it wouldn't be due to hardware incompatibilities.

;p

Yes, I'm interested in that topic (especially after reading so much apple-vs-windows propaganda to drive me insane)...shut it :P. I got more interested when brother got his mac. Kinda thinking of trying it myself...Take over my (rarely used) ubuntu partition.

But...The bit about the circumvention and the DMCA may be wrong, also the illegal part...If that's the case. Well orsm! I should research more and then get cracking on getting it installed.

Also, you could legally buy leopard and get one of these prepatched dvd's and then destroy your leopard one, or not install it and have it be legal.

If the software is designed to not work on a certain platform, forcing it to is circumventing its protection methods. This is very close to what is covered in the DMCA, but not directly. The DMCA covers copying of materials, not the alterations to make them work on another platform. It is legal to do what he is talking about, but it's an easy thing to get mixed up.

I'm still confused as to why you think you have a macbook. You have a Dell. Dell does not equal Mac. I think you're forgetting about the quality of the machine...

Are you sure? I think a lot of people get RC'd for a few weeks. As a short punishment of sorts.

After people are removed, we move their topics out of the board so it's quicker to see who's still in there.

Forgot to mention. When my dad's computer came, he let me use the 2 GB I got him, and I gave him my 1.5 GB. Most excellent...
