Once again IT ISN'T ABOUT WHICH IS BETTER< BECAUSE THAT'S A DEBATE NEITHER SIDE IS GOING TO WIN. It depends on which works better for YOU. You should stick to Linux since you can't figure out how to open calculator.

And I doubt you were using Leopard.

i wasn't i was using Mac OSX not leopard

Linux is extremely complicated...
since the system32 for linux isn't real.

Okay, I tried this blackbox thing.


I opened TabIt. Then I clicked the tiny button to switch over the beta. Now Tabit's in Beta...?
I switched over the Gamma. TabIt's still up.
I switched over the Delta. TabIt's still up.
I switched over to alpha again. TabIt vanishes.
It's not in Beta. It's not in Gamma. Oh, it ... stayed in Delta?
NO! Because when I click it, it disappears!
... I click the bar at the bottom and it pops back up. I click on the window POOF gone again.

What the hell?

It took me like 20 seconds to figure out how to close it. Plus my desktop icons are background image are gone...


And how do you turn it off?

There is a small round button on the right side, clicking it separates your windows to alpha beta gamma, ect. Double clicking a window sends it to another desktop.

To turn it off, right click and go to BlackBox and select quit.

It takes a little bit of getting used to, it's not that confusing.

Macs do have physical turn off buttons, what the hell are you talking about?
Also, OSX does have the equivalent to ctrl+alt+delete, where you can force quit unresponsive programs.
My Mac is very fast.

I couldn't understand anything else you typed.

At school, they had some mac laptops. When they crashed (Lol macs never crash. :V ) pushing the power button wouldn't do anything. To restart them, we would have to open the case and remove the battery. ~_~

Did you try holding the power button in?

If that doesn't work, then yeah, unplug the battery. I had to do the same thing with my Dell laptop every now and then. Actually, a lot. Because it crashed, a lot.


(P.S. I never said Macs never crash. I just said mine hasn't, yet. Read, comprehend, post.)

There's really no sense in getting a Mac if you plan to be gaming on it, unless you already have a gaming machine.

90% of my software is either pirated from the internet, or stolen directly from the Macs in the music lab.

Yet another reason why I love Macs. :3

Apple trusts it's users, at least for now. They don't require activation for Leopard. You're only allowed to install Leopard on one machine from the disk, but they have nothing to stop you from installing it on multiple Macs.
