That's why you install a bootcamp partition with Windows. Not a problem for Mac only for OSX
>>
>>249371221

What the fuck is the point of such a great resolution on such a terrible screen size especially when mac has no games unless you modify it and even then it doesn't perform as well as a PC laptop with mostly the same hardware?

I mean, I guess if you had to do quality computer graphics work on the go, that might be cool, but why wouldn't you have a work computer at home for that?

Also you are not modifying it, that's the same logic as a calling a self built PC with Windows installed as "Modified". You are simply installing an operating system.

Also what do you mean it doesn't perform as a well as a PC with mostly the same hardware? Because you sound retarded.

Or you buy the Retina one with a dedicated graphics card.

You'd be surprised how powerful those Intel APUs have become though. Sure, they don't come close to a 780TI, but for general performance and small time gaming they're quite amazing actually. Been rocking mostly a HD4000 on my ZenBook UX32VD in OS X and it runs damn good and that's not an Iris which most Macs come with which is about double the power again.

Dunno what you hate about Aqua, but if you mean Finder (the file manager which is pretty horrible) try XtraFinder. Far better at everything and free (as in open source).

Try Homebrew too which is a package manager. Quite good if you've gotten used to Linux, but need the proprietary software.

It's oblique for no real reason. The dock takes up too much space for no real function, applications don't close when you tell them to, things rarely maximize properly, full screen doesn't work if you have more than one monitor (if you don't in 2014, kill yourself) and the global menu bar is just pointless.

I dunno what you mean about full screen not working properly with multiple monitors tho, do you use mavericks? Because it is optimised completely for that. I know pre Mountain Lion was a pain etc but for the last year or so this hasn't been a problem.
>>
>>249375839

Are you really SO retarded you can't even use a mac? Os X is literally one of the most user-friendly systems ever.

>full screen doesn't work if you have more than one monitor

You should upgrade that old version of os x dude

>the global menu bar is just pointless

There's no point to that high of a resolution on such a small screen. You sacrifice a shit ton of battery life for the sake of an unnecessarily pixel dense monitor. But if you want to waste your money, go ahead and do so.

7 Hour battery life while in use.

Also, there totally is a point. Because it is visibly more sharp than current HD. You say wasting money but I still don't see a cheaper alternative if you want a sharp display on a laptop.
>>
>>249376559

You didn't really argue against any of my points, anon
Only the full screen and dock arguments received a counter point.
The full screen thing is stupid, but if they fixed it I suppose it isn't a problem any more.
And the dock is inefficient. If you make it small, you have to squint to see the icons. If you make it big, there's too much space being taken away from the applications. At least Win 7 is space efficient with its pinned icons, the dock cares too much about shallow 3D effects

>>249377452

The main point you were addressing has been solved in the newer versions of OSX.

Also, all you have to do is click the top left of the screen and close instead of the typical windows X, I don't really see this as a problem however.

Also the dock is entirely customisable, albeit not explicitly within the system options.

I own a mac because I prefer OSX to Windows for like 99% of my daily computing tasks.

I do miss not being able to play PC gaming though and I don't want to buy a separate windows PC just for that, which is why I'm hoping for cheap / decent steam machines.

Actually Mac support seems to be more and more common place these days. Sure, most are indie games, but it's a big improvement from the last few years
>>
>>249378705

Quit putting words into my mouth you moron.

My point was that at a certain pixel density, you're seeing diminishing returns, but are sacrificing more and more battery life.
>>
>>249378465

I bough it because I study art/graphic/design and it's really great for what I do.
Also its system make Windows 7 looking like something made 15 years ago, and that alone is enough for justifying the purchase. Obviously you can't realize that if your experience consists in 10 minutes of try at the apple store or at a friend house.

My next pc will probably be an hackintosh, whenever I'll have enough free time to assemble it.

Me again, I've had two of the 2006 models, one I got while in college (designfag) and one 4 years after.

My first one's HD died within a month, got it replaced under warranty. Worked fine after that, but then the casing around the keyboard and around the monitor started cracking (pick related, that's how it started down by the palm rest, then it got bigger, about the width of one's finger.)

Both laptops finally gave up, where the keyboard and the mousepad just don't work.

tl;dr Just don't waste your time OP. If you still have to use Mac, get at least the 2009 Mac desktop and just install Bootcamp.

I hope Microsoft keeps the almost-monopoly in the pc market.
Macs are less relevant, but Apple actually put a huge effort into making their Os the most comfortable you can use, trying to build the best experience you can find using a pc.
That's because Apple actually fear of losing their users, and that would surely happen if Windows were better than Os X.
Microsoft, having the whole world using their systems, simply can't give less fucks, so they are really lazy in the Os development.

I own both pc and mac and I use mac for my web designing and some video audio editing. It's more stable.
Windows can be faster, but software is buggy.
Windows is good only because you can pirate more shit. If you couldn't pirate anything, mac would be better.

Let's imply piracy doesn't exist, because it's a crime. We are not criminals, right?
Then Mac is cheaper, because it already has software that it's alternatives in windows cost at least $1000. I work at a company that cannot use pirated software. We use mac, because it's cheaper.

People will always fail to realize how buying a 1000$ pc with free OS and software that let you work without adding to that price a single penny is more convenient than buying a 700$ pc that need thousands for OS, software and maintenance.

They seems too busy being mad at you for using something with a logo they don't like.

>having to deal with viruses

Bro, Macs can get viruses.

BUT
The fact is simple: Apple doesn't sell licenses for antivirus.
Want to sell an antivirus? You can't, you can release it free if you want.
Or you can sell a program that do other stuff, including also being an antivirus as a plus.
Antivirus companies are the people that spread the most powerful and numerous viruses all over the web, because they have interest in doing so, selling the "cure".
If they can't sell antivirus, then they also haven't the incentive to make and spread viruses for Mac.
So no massive mac viruses all over the web at all.

ALSO
Apple itself release non-stop security updates whenever some Os X viruses, malware, botnets or such things start spreading. Security updates are often weekly, if not daily.

ALSO
there are plenty of free antiviruses for Os X. Even if you get a virus (which is highly improbable), it would be easily stopped.

That's why yes, there can be viruses for Mac, but it's REALLY difficult to actually get them.
Almost impossible if you aren't a complete idiot (but even if you are).

Not at all. Speaking for laptops, you can't actually find one with better performance/materials/quality/screen resolution/battery/assistance than a MacBook for a lower piece.
Right now, MacBooks and the Mac Pros have really competitive prices in their sectors (laptops and workstations).

>All you get is the fucking apple and an inferior OS
>inferior OS
>not knowing how superior is OS X

I know the apple hate bandwagon, but even /g/ admitted how the current Os X is better than Windows 7/8.
It's truly great. Some ideas are so good you'll surely see them in the next Microsoft systems, mark my words.

However, Windows 7 is really better for gaming. It's one of the few reasons someone would ever prefer 7 to Mavericks.

I used to be a Mac guy but I switched for games and a lot of specific software.
I miss OSX, it's a much cleaner and more stable OS. I loved how much lightweight community-made free software was available for it without any RECOMMENDED: INSTALL THE ASK.COM TOOLBAR bullshit tacked on.

>wahhh macs are overpriced garbage
Their laptops are the most heavy duty machines I've ever used, you can practically run over it with a truck and it'll still work. They're worth every last fucking penny, every Windows laptop I've ever used has been a finnicky piece of plastic garbage.

And if you're not using a laptop, just build a fucking hackintosh.

Bullshit. I've worked on PC doing 3D stuff since it was possible (since around '95) and nowadays windows is rock solid.

My computer is never shut down and I have periods of 2 - 3 months where I don't have a second of downtime.

And I hammer it quite heavily with games, Zbrush, Photoshop, MAX, Premiere and the usual suspects.

Apple products are not more stable. It's that you are ignorant and that ignorance costs you money.

Don't even need to build a hackintosh as long as you have a Intel processor almost all the latest desktop components work on OS X. All nVidia graphics cards work on it and most ATI cards. The only problem is WiFi which is a trivial task to fix.

But I have to agree, it's a good fucking OS. The only problem is the little game compatibility and that the Finder is quite meh. Software on it is great, homebrew is great, UI is great, and gestures are godlike. Wouldn't switch back to Windows as my main OS even if I got paid.

But that's wrong in at least 3 different respects:

1) It ignores when no, you couldn't put together the same specs even for less money.

2) It ignores that form factor is in fact a feature most normal humans care about. Try building an iMac considering how much space it occupy and how good its materials are, not a machine that it's supposed to run the same.

3) It ignores the value of your own time.

3b) Sub to above, even when someone like you does consider the time (rare) you don't tend to consider the meta-time.

This is old, old stuff that has been gone over for a decade. Kind of weird almost to see people still spouting the same thing all these years later, but then again thinking about politics I guess that's human nature.

It's not the number of people who use the OS that matters, it's the overall percentage of the users that are pedophiles/homosexuals etc.
If 90% of pedophiles use windows that doesn't matter as much because windows is the most common OS. Say those 90% pedophiles make up .5% of the total windows users (these are all random numbers). But say the other 8% or whatever pedophiles that use mac make up 2% of the total users because there's less total mac users. That means mac users are more likely to be pedophiles.

You would be surprised.

Macs have literally almost every driver in the world already installed (there are Os X weekly updates that automatically install the drivers of new keyboards, mouses, printers, cameras, cellphones, graphic tablets and so on just appeared on the market), but apple choose not to release official Xbox 360 controller drivers, because fuck it, they hate Microsoft.

Too bad you can download the drivers anyways from the web, also most of game ports let you use the xbox controller without problems.

That's not even relevant because you can use DS3 and DS4 right out of the box wirelessly because the mac's built-in bluetooth works and already recognizes analog and button presses of the controller. Not to mention DS4 works out of the box with PC as well, and you can use betterDS3 for DS3 on pc.

There's literally no need for the 360 controller. Especially not on mac where the DS controllers work natively.

You can really see that /v/ is populated by edgy 15 year olds with no money.

There is a certain age, where you grow out of your hate for apple and realize that while their hardware is not cheap, you still get the overall better product.

Their Laptops are god-tier, their tablets and phones are top-tier, their Mac Pro's are top-tier Workstation machines, their iMacs and mac minis are a thing on their own and if you compare them to the same product line, they are simply better.
I used to hate apple, when I was poor as shit and still lived with my parents, but as soon as I started to earn money and actually gave apple products a try, I got really surprised and determined that, my whole hate for them was pointless. /g/ also mostly moved away from hating apple, besides a few autistic neckbeards.

Obviously /v/ is not the right place to debate things like this, because they're going to post you some gayming laptops with a battery life of 40 minutes and call it a better laptop or some gayming pc and tell you that it'll run games better than a Mac pro.

Anyway, please enjoy your butthurt and maybe someday, you eventually grow out of your hate for apple too.

Good night /v/.

Apple is just a luxury, some people enjoy it, some don't, it's simple as that, but your life doesn't need luxury for you to be happy.

I've tried some apple products but I've learned my life doesn't need them. iPod's are cool but I enjoyed an MP3 I had before much more with it's simplicity, but I don't hate my current iPod, but I rarely use it nowadays and I hate using iTunes. The mouses are pretty comfy, but I don't need them, my mouse which I've used for almost a decade works just as good and I don't need anything from Razer either.

I'm happy with what I have really. I don't need an expensive product to prove superiority, in the end they don't last forever and you can't have them with you all the time. Just get whatever fits with you better.

the mac pro is another over priced work station line up that doesn't beat even corporate workstations

the mac pro's only real advantage is its small form factor which isn't an issue for most companies anyway, its small form factor actually hinders it because you have to use a peripheral for literally every attachment since theres no inside upgradeability for peripherals, storage, RAID modules or anything

imacs are in the same position, yea you save space and what not but the computer is very lack luster as a platform, low end performance for a high tier price? come off it mac mini's are the same

Knights of the Old Republic: $3.39
Portal: $5
VVVVVV: $2.50

I know they're all old, but I hadn't actually played them before. All work on Mac, and I know all are pretty good quality, especially for less than $10 total.

There's no point in buying dozens of games I'll never play that often, and I don't need every shooter or action RPG that comes out, since I end up watching the interesting ones as films on Youtube minus the price tag.

With that said, absolutely won't defend Mac as any kind of proper gaming machine; it's not. As an Idort though, I can generally get anything of interest for whatever system, so I don't need the computer to be a hardcore gaming machine. So long as I can run a little nostalgia on it like SimTown or Lego Island, I'm good.

I also have Civilization V, Minecraft (the free version), World of Warcraft which is currently inactive because fuck your 14-month-no-content bullshit Blizzard, and the one that gets the most "play time", Lego Digital Designer. Pic related - autist as fuck and loads of fun.

Text looks a million times better than on 1080p screens and games run fine at 1440x900 (so it scales perfectly). I got the late 2013 rMBP as a gift for graduation/college and it runs older games at 2880x1800 and it looks awesome, and newer games look OK at 1440x900. Unfortunately I got one with the nVdia GPU so I can't do it, but you can hook up a thunderbol to expresscard, to expresscard to pcie and have an external GPU display on the internal monitor an run new games on high.
>>
>>249399125

Not the case at all.

PCIe is hardly a disadvantage to the SAT displayed in the post which was replied to, and is superior to an SSD. So, where do you want to go with this? The fact that you're totally wrong?

What's even the point of getting a Mac anyway? You spend all that money to get laptop parts in a shiny desktop and then you can only run like 5% of the software Windows runs. Even with bootcamp you end up just spending $1500 on a Windows laptop anyway.

I guess if you do stuff with audio, Core Audio is meant to be good - but I can't think of any other case where a Mac would be any good.

Flash Storage is the same shit as an SSD in PCIe

Flash Storage is a buzzword, what it really is is just Solid state memory over a PCIe bus
>>
>>249399682

SATA based interface limits the capacity of the bus that transfers data from the SSD to the processor.

Which, it just so happens, is not the case with PCIe.
>>
>>249399980
6, 15krpm SAS drives in raid 5 would easily blow away a single PCIe SSD

Macfag here

Does Bootcamp really work for Steam games? How well?
>>
>>249399980
So you are saying its the exact same with a better bus.
So if you use a different software to configure the bus, it would be better.
>>
>>249399221
>actually answering the question

I'm not sure whether to be grateful or to call you a faggot.

Can I do both?
>>
>>249400116
you can't configure the SATA bus

SATA3 is the latest technology and it's bus limit is 6gbps both ways

however SAS in a RAID array over multiple SAS cables would indefinitely be faster than one of course

>>
>>249400115
You have to have downloaded the Steam client into the Bootcamped Windows. Once you do that, it's all dependent on what you have to work on. Bear in mind, Windows software yes, but your various specs are still based on the Mac. So if the Mac would stutter on some games, it still will on Windows. It'll vary by the game at that point.

>>249400514
You just inheritly think that because its SSD over PCIe that its magically faster than everything?

IIRC the mac pro's PCIe SSD did about 1gb/s

but I can guarantee you a raid array of SAS drives will be faster, about 10 times as fast actually because one server/workstation can saturate a 10gb SFP fiber line

>Computer hardware is the collection of physical elements that constitutes a computer system. Computer hardware refers to the physical parts or components of a computer such as the monitor, mouse, keyboard, computer data storage, hard drive disk (HDD), system unit (graphic cards, sound cards, memory, motherboard and chips), etc. all of which are physical objects that can be touched.[1] In contrast, software is instructions that can be stored and run by hardware.

shit loads faster on an SSD

a good enough RAID array of HDD's will easily beat an SSD
