Really? I find it interesting because stuff I'd do through command prompt (mostly IPconfig stuff) Macs do through a different method.

They're not based off the same foundation, my friend.

I disagree. I've used MAC OSX a fair bit, and I don't find it intuitive at all. Nice looking? Yes, but I didn't like it at all. Probably because I've grown with windows, and I find some stuff much easier to use, such as using command prompt and the control panel, which I've always been confused by with a MAC.

I also feel that when you buy a MAC a lot more of your money is going towards the OS compared to when you buy a windows PC. For the price of a macbook I can get a convertable Tablet with nicer specs. So I think its a matter of do you want do pay for nicer hardware, or for a "nicer" OS.

Ever seen a Macbook Pro or Mac Pro in person? You're also paying for build quality.

Partly, but you can get some high qaulity PCs for quite a bit less. My friends macbook pro cost over $1000 more then a Sony with better specs.
I don't like Mac OS myself either.

Heh. Computers at school don't block CF.

I think the blocks are based in the server. Any way to modify them from a user account? I can easily get onto and admin account, but I'm lost on where to go from there.

A series of CMD prompts, perhaps?

 

[mikee]

my school used to block CF but all you had to do was disable the proxy server in the browser you were using or just use a portable version of firefox to get around all the blocked sites.
