I got OS X.1 about two weeks ago. I put it on my iBook and I love it. It's quick and easy. It runs fine on my comp: orig. iBook 300mhz, 160mb ram, 3gig hd. It didn't slow down my computer at all. To play R6 I just boot up on 9.2.1 and R6 runs as normal with nothing slowed down. It's great.

Then, what your local computer store hasn't gotten the update cds in yet? Or have they just been selling out?

It's not for sale, it's free from the local stores.  

The down side is our local CompUSA had a line starting 3 hours before the store opened.  They were out of stock before the store ever opened (they took names from the people lined up I heard, so they could come back and get it after the stock guys opened the boxes up).  Lucky for me I know a guy that works there and he held back a copy for me.  I never would have expected there to be that kind of rush on it.  Yes, I owe him a couple beers.

You can order it right from Apple, but it's like $20 for shipping and handeling.  Since they are giving it out free... I think I'll check the liscensing on it, and see if distributing it on a server would be warez or not...  You never know.

So you're telling me that this is what people do when they don't live 10 minutes from Apple? Man that sucks...

yeah, my local comp usa got 50 copies. They were all gone in ten minutes of the store opening.

I gave them my name and phone number, and they said they'd call when they got more in. Haven't gotten that call yet...

grift, as for distributing the software through a server, it would technically be illegal. however, apple has made no comment on this, and if you can find it on hotline, I don't think you'll get in trouble.

after all, it's a free update...


The only reason it isn't available for download is because 600+ mbs would take a SHITLOAD of bandwith on Apple's part.

Well, I spent most of the weekend playing RtoCW on my brothers comp and I've now found the reason to move to X at least part time.  That game is going to rule.

Ok, I've now tried playing R6 with classic.  It sucks.  It isn't unplayable but it is slow enough to make a difference.  I will be playing all my R6 in 9.

Yeah, I'm torn. R6 runs halfway decent in classic for me, but I'm lazy and don't like switching to 9. For now however, I usually switch over to get the performance.

Well, I have just about no choice but to switch over to play. Because in order to get GR open in X it opens 9 like a program so therefore, with my shit video card it would run so horribly. But I am happy then when I do switch back to 9 it runs just as good as it did before I install X on my comp.

Haha, cuz of Vapors poor 160MB RAM, he cant run classic at the same time  Cool

OS X 10.1 is very nice, and smooth.... but, i have 256mb and it's still kinda slow while running classic, hopefully since my new 256 has finally shipped that it'll run faster w/ more RAM.... either that or my gay 400MHz iMac DV is too slow to handle the xtreme  power of OS X

*says thanks macman. then hides*

*laughs at apple and their incompetent way of distributing 10.1 updates*

*wonders if the planning behind the "up to date" system was masterminded by Romulus*

*goes and tries to find non existant pictures of Apple's top secret digital hub add on thingy*

*smiles as he reaches 300 posts*

*bastard*

*squeals in excitement as he finally LEGALLY obtains the 10.1 update cd*

*sighs emphatically as he saves wrath the trouble of combining posts by modifying his original*
