Allow me to step in and answer that question as I am the perfect candidate for this... Having just switched to a Mac the biggest loss I experienced was not having OUTLOOK available. While the email and address book that comes with OS X do an admirable job of integrating with each...

The problem with webcams and other peripherals not working right now is due to the new Intel based macs. Logitech has not yet prepared drivers for these devices, nor has macam (as indicated at the bottom of their webpage)

Christian, Nice try..appreciate it...but it does not work. As I understand it, Logitech is working on drivers.

Carlo, Excellent read. I am still not even close to giving my total opinion on my changeover to macintosh as a huge part of that review will be based upon running VISTA through PARALLELS. Vista is not released until next week. I can say this based on my two-day experience thus far...

Got my mac Pro yesterday. Played with it for about three hours. My initial impression is that OS X is far more refined than Windows XP. It's very neatly organized with most all the features that VISTA is finally bringing to the table. There is a slight learning curve to the operating...

Christ, Best answer I can give you is that I want Vista and am willing to put up with any initial bugs. I am not concerned with cost as it will be a business writeoff.

Thomas, Can you get more specific information about this please? I am about to spend $300 on VISTA BUSINESS and if there are issues running under Parallels I need to know ASAP. Would appreciate you getting back to me on this ASAP with what specific driver problems there are...

Michael, Since I will be installing Parallels in 2 weeks (when VISTA arrives) I am interested in exactly what the Transporter RC application is all about.

I am getting my Mac Pro today, though I won't be thinking about a review for at least 2.5 weeks, after the release of Vista which at that point I can evaluate its performance under Parallels. I can say this... I have played around with my friend's macbook. I can already see that OS X...

Guys, stop the mudslinging, please.

That's the most interesting thing about Vista and the PC in general.... ....and this comes from a person that has been a PC user all his life.... Absolutely, Vista looks like OS X because it's a rip-off of that operating system. One of the biggest factors that threw me towards...

Interesting what I just discovered... There is an emulator available to run Mac on a Windows desktop

Michael, That's incredible! I can take my entire PC as it is set up now and migrate it over to Parallels to use on my Mac. Unfortunately, since I'll be installing Windows Vista, I can't do it as the best install of Vista is a fresh one. BTW, don't know if it was mentioned on this...

I am going to be hooking up my two external Maxtor One Touch drives to my Mac Pro via firewire. You are saying that at this point, under Parallels, Windows will not recognize those drives as there is currently no firewire driver support?

Guys, This has been a great read. Let me touch upon a few things... I'm not a gamer. I use Windows exclusively for HTF. I also do a lot of Photoshop work and CD/DVD burning. I do not want to mess with Boot Camp. I am fine emulating Windows in Parallels. I want to be able to...

Mark, Very good post. Listen, I finally got some balls to do something different and migrated to a Mac for a few reasons.... My $4k computer from Velocity Micro I bought almost 2 years ago has been in the shop for over a month. The company is trying to figure out blue screen...

You know, I can talk to 4 people and nobody has the same answer on how I can add a wireless printer to Mac. I did do this on the recommendation of an Apple tech.... My computer is still being built so I was able to add a $50 Airport Express Card which in theory should work wirelessly...

So, I am wondering if I should cancel my order for the Airport Express Base station.

Carlo, I have a feeling that whatever Apple announces is going to be more expensive than what I have. I mean, I spent about $3200 on this rig. If you hear about these new machines coming out at a comperable price, let me know. I think I got a good rig at a decent price no matter what...

Christian, Running tons of Windows startup programs on Parallels combined with running a few widgets and an active EyeTV on my MACINTOSH at the same time -- will I be pushing the limit with all that power and 2GB ram? Will I notice a lag? I really wanted 4 gigs ram but it was an extra...

Cameron, I'm using the EyeTV Hybrid strictly for TV watching. Not recording. Hopefully there will not be a problem with processing.

I just bought the Eye TV Hybrid Hopefully someone has experience with this. Also bought an Airport Express Base Station so that I can run my printer wirelessly in another room. I am a bit confused by the base station as it seems to be ONE unit and I thought there had to be a...

Carlo is going to somewhat disappointed, but.... I just bought a Macintosh! To be precise, I bought the Macintosh Pro •Processor 065-6352 2.66 GHz Quad Xeon •Memory 065-6358 2GB 667 DDR2 FB DIMM ECC-4x512 •Graphics Card 065-6410 NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 256MB •Hard Drive Bay1 065-6367...

I think today I am going to order a Mac Pro system at $3200. Just one things is holding me back that I am now looking for an answer about.... I own the Logitech diNovo bluetooth keyboard and mouse. It's there top-of-the-line combo that costs over $200. So you can imagine why I want to...

Certainly, I am on the outside looking in, but I highly doubt that any operating system is "unhackable." From everything I have heard over the years about the Mac OS, it hasn't been the subject of attacks merely because it falls under the radar compared to Windows. To answer Adam's...

Jeremy, You need to ask? :) (You are on it right now)

Curiosity would be one factor. Windows boredom another. Moreso, I think it's the fact that lately, I have had so many problems with my Windows based PC. I get lots of blue screen crashes and I find myself having to constantly reformat or restore my drive from backup because I installed a...

For months I have been posting countless messages asking about various benefits of a MAC over a PC. Honestly, I have been struggling to buy a Macintosh over the years, but every time I have opted to purchase a PC for two reasons.... 1. Everybody owns a PC. It is the dominant format and...
