[quote][i]Originally posted by Dom[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by adiohead[/i] I've had Safari crash a few times but can't remember the last time OSX crashed. My iMac is PowerPC G5 and my Macbook Pro is an Intel Penryn I used to work on the old OS 8 and 9 macs. Early OSX was a nightmare :lol: [/quote] Cheetah and Puma were shit to put it frankly! OS9 was ace though, used to run it on a dual 1.25GHz G4 mirror maxed out with 1.5GB of ram, the thing used to fly back then :cool: Can't say i ever had problems with OS9, had the odd lock but nothing major. Snow Lepoard (Mac Pro) will usually beach-ball if i'm working with HD material in Premiere/AE or bouncing tracks in Protools. Most of time it beach-balls for a few seconds or minutes, but have had a few that has required me to reboot the mac. AlunJ - I've never had issues with 7, no slow downs on my current year old install, no virus's or malware and maintenance it does itself, just like OSX does. I think 7 is probably one of the best OS Microsoft has released, similarly 10.6 is probably one of the best Apple has released. One thing Microsoft is good at is releasing quick security fixes, Apple is pretty slow compared and you usually get it as a mass update (symantec do a yearly report on how quick manufactures patch their products). And the whole 'OSX is more secure than Windows' is a complete myth as well, with people at DEF CON usually finding holes in OSX quicker than any unix/windows based system. This isn't a dig at OSX; i think it's a brilliant OS! I just don't see it as the hole grail that people make it out to be (likewise with the iPhone), it has it's fair share of faults and issues just like any other system.
