Well I got 10.1 this weekend, and I love it. I just wanted to know what everyone else who has it thinks of it. For all you X hates out there, get 10.1 and you will change your mind.

So far so GREAT.  I liked 10.0, and 10.1 fixes all the little problems I had with it.  Now, to see if RS works under X now... or do I still have to boot 9...

My one attempt of using OS X pissed me off so much I vowed never to progress, much like I vowed never to move to RS from R6.  I will probably try to use it in the future thanks to the pdf function so I can distribute my zines over web, that is if I ever start writing zines again.

Zom, having a laptop with X on it is pretty sweet...


Well I just tried playing R6 under 10.1, and to my surprise it was actually not that bad. I may consider playing under it all the time. Don't get me wrong, it definitely lags a little, but not nearly as bad as before. All and all, job well done by Apple.


Oh yeah, and with the new version of IE (5.1) the forums no longer crash it.

Wrath obviously has some reason to hide under an alias... oh well


Yes you will need a more ram for your little crappy imac. On an imac like yours, i would guess that with 10.1 and 384 megs of ram, it would run pretty well. It runs well on the g4 400 with 256 megs back home, and its awesome on my powerbook.

My wife's iBook (300mhz maxed at 320megs of RAM) runs 10.1 fine. ?It ran 10.0.4 like crap, but that was more about how slow OS X was, vs now it's much quicker.

Oh, and everyone.... let me introduce you to th3 sp0t....  you all should remember Romulus...

Rom... have the balls to come in under your own name... eh?

Eh. Romulus != Th3 Sp0t... Romulus=Th3 Sp0t's friend... Romulus got rs-hub from Wrath, so he could use CGI's on HM servers, until he bought space... Then he gave ME (Th3 Sp0t) both his GR account and rs-hub account. I don't know what ID he is under in GR, but he was sick of you HuhHuh?? bothering him. Thank you.

Rom pretending he has friends.... *shakes head*

On the OS X 10.1 issue, iv just bought it myself and am currently awaiting its arrival.... However, (this question is for all of you government people) Apple.com charged me $8.04 sales tax. Now isnt it stated somewhere in the constitution that interstate commerce is not to be taxed?  If so, this is unconstitutional....  Shocked

You can be charged sales tax if they are based in the same state as you.  But ya, taxing interstate commerce is usually a bad thing.  Maybe just a round-about way off getting more money for shipping and product price though.

Cool

Apple can get away with taxing in every state as long as one Apple Authorized retailer exists.

I have been using Mac OS X since the beta days (1H39), and seen all the revisions. Apple made some sweet improvements in this version.

Recommendation to everyone: Under X, go to the terminal and use the 'top' command. This will bring up a ProcessViewer type thing, used under the UNIX command line system. Under the area marked 'Pageouts:', if there is a number greater than 0, you should get more RAM.

For those how don't know, a Pageout under X is when the system is accessing too many commands at once, and needs to use it's virtual memory, which hits severely on preformance. If you have 0, then you never left the RAM, and have plenty for multiple applications.

I have 448MB of RAM onboard my G3/350 B&W, and I have a number of pageouts ranging at about 1000 after a few hours of extended use. I plan un upgrading to 768MB soon.
