Mac Users Of Mtc (apple: Go Ahead, Take A Bite!)


Recommended Posts

so what do u think is better? iWorks 08 or the newest version of Office?

 

 

good question. lets wait for mr. boomouse's input hehe

 

personally, im hoping there will be a significant (at the very least noticeable) speed upgrade in terms of opening files. coz, although i have the old iwork and office package, i still find myself using office for word and excel in-spite of the speed (or lack thereof) because im used to using it, but keynote for my presentations (because of the better templates and faster loading of files specially with pic heavy ones).

 

im hoping numbers will be at par naman with excel in terms of spreadsheet functions. otherwise, excel parin...

iworks and office 2008 each has its strong points. For heavy excell users the will find that numbers lacks most of the features they need. Bt numbers is useful for presentation of data.

 

I used iworks nowaday since my job is mostly presentation not providing data nor crunching/analyzing data and numbers. Keynotes really better than powerpoint, more elegant and nicer transition.

Apple bug miffs shock jock Limbaugh

 

Steve Jobs, help me out

 

By Nick Farrell: Thursday, 14 February 2008, 9:11 AM

 

CONSERVATIVE shock jock Rush Limbaugh has asked Apple CEO Steve Jobs to fix a bug in his computer that has been annoying him for months.

 

Even if he is annoying and some would say pig ignorant, Limbaugh does not otherwise conform to Apple's target market. For a start he is too old and a bit independent of thought. However, Limbaugh is a bit of an Apple fan boy and has four Apple Mac Pros.

 

According to Cnet, he recently upgraded them from Tiger to Leopard and found that there was a bug in the software which he had hoped would be fixed in the next update.

 

Just to make sure he reported the bug to Apple and was told that they had the same problems on their machines too. However updates have come and gone and the unidentified bug still exists.

 

He used his radio show to appeal to Jobs directly. He admitted that he and Jobs do not see eye to eye on anything, for a start Jobs is a democrat.

 

His producer has an interesting theory that Jobs thinks that Limbaugh using his Apples is like having your product blessed by Charles Manson and is hoping he can chase him to Windows. µ

hmm... i just had a problem to my magsafe adaptor. the cable that is directly connected to the adaptor (plug) has melted, exposing the frayed wires inside. i just used electrical tape to close it up, but im expecting it to go at any time. new magsafe adaptor costs 6500 daw in power mac @^*%&!#@!%$....

 

checked apple forums, and it seems that this is not uncommon for macbook and macbook pro owners. ive loved my mac so far, but this little problem just sucks... i've never had problems with my old laptop adapters before, and ive had them for much longer (had my macbook for about 15 months)...

nakapaginstall nga sila ng vista sa eeepc eh :D by golly now thats a miracle but heck nagawa nila. the damn hog of an OS :P

 

curious lang though if they have installed the hacked leopard onto the eee? now that would be nice :)

lemme confirm this one first hand :) had it installed from a patched image of my mac's leopard. finally got it right on the 5th attempt using a guide i found on the osx86 scene forum to patch osx.

 

have yet to test whether it's practical though or just something you would do out of sheer boredom which is my primary motive at this point.:lol:
