artvader Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 (edited) Well as I said: there are some people who just think Apple is simply infallible in whatever they do... Judging from the way you've made your reply (with frequent stabs at the commentators themselves), I'd say you're a fanatic and I guess if Apple would go and sell you a solar-powered flashlight, you'd still defend it to no end and say that it's pure genius... C'mon, when a good word about the Mac comes from a site called macobserver.com, you say that they're very respectable... but when Mac critics from the New York Times, Computer World and other publications make their own opinions and observations known, you say they're trash and you go on accusing them of being Windows users who have no business handling a mac. I think that's called generalization. BTW, I've been reading the apple forums and apparently there are a lot of people getting a Blue Screen of Death after freshly installing the Leopard upgrade. I guess the BSOD isn't an exclusive MS problem after all. Wait lemme guess: it's the user's fault. Edited October 29, 2007 by artvader Quote Link to comment

us_good Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 kainis bakit di sinama ng leopard ang support for java 6 Quote Link to comment
us_good Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Apple ships Leopard without Java 6 Article from article:The move to ship Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5) without Java 6 is a significant sign of Sun blowing its opportunity with Java development. I wrote about this at the Apple iPhone introduction. For all of Jonathan Schwartz's talk about the opportunity for Java on mobile devices, there is no Java on iPhone. iPhone is a gated community and Java is on the outside. That leaves Java developers in a bad position. Java developers love the clean Unix-based Mac OS X environment for development. But we have been suffering with an unstable developer-only dont-run-this-in-production release of Java 6 for the past year. Mac OS X is now the getto for Java 6 Details on Leopard and DTrace are found here The Mac OS X developer center for Java is found here. Quote Link to comment

LadyChatterley Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 (edited) I was advised by my MAC tech support to wait for a couple of weeks before upgrading to the Leopard. He said there are still glitches that the apple guys are troubleshooting as they are discovered. He actually uploaded it to his MacBook Pro and his programs kept on hanging. I'm taking his advice. No rush. The Leopard will be there for a while, anyway. Better sure than sorry. Edited October 31, 2007 by LadyChatterley Quote Link to comment

poppinfresh2k5 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 There is a Mac version of MS Office 2003. Office 2008 is coming out on Mac OS ahead of Windows. Files are directly readable and writeable between platforms. The Apple Word processor/Page Layout software is called "Pages" which has read/write capability of rtf files. If you are running under Leopard, then Office 2007 file compatibility is available. There is also an open source software suite called Neo OFFICE which also produces "doc" and "rtf" files. isnt office 2008 for the mac just a rewrite of office 2007? updated for the mac? mac office versions are usually a year behind. hmmm... the real new office is coming out by 2009 i believe given their product cycles. why such hate?
