I had nearly the exact same thoughts once, and that was after a year of .Mac subscription.

Sad to see the boat is still the same. I don’t recommend continuing to sail on it.

I have to claim ignorance when it comes to Vista. I’ve never used it. XP Pro runs like a dream on it, even as a virtual machine (not even dual booted). I would wager that the performance is even good enough for gaming.

My favorite setup for work is to run XP in a virtual machine in full screen mode in it’s own “space” (the Mac version of virtual desktops). Then by hitting command-3 I can switch back and forth between a Mac and a Windows environment (great for web development).

Out of curiosity, what’s your killer app on Windows that makes you want to keep it as your primary OS? I think it’s a great idea, what you’re proposing, but you may just find out that you grow more comfortable using OS X.

Hello J! I was thinking of getting a Macbook Pro, but I’ve never touched a Mac before and I’m mainly a Windows user. I want to get my own notebook, but the only reason I’m getting a Mac is because I want to learn how to develop iPhone apps on there. I want to mainly run Windows on my Mac and just use the Mac OS whenever I’m developing iPhone apps/learning. So would Windows Vista work fast on there or would it be really laggy? Is it easy to set-up a dualboot?

It sounds pessimistic, but it’s probably only a matter of time

Has to be two consecutive quarters to be a recession.

My wife received a similar one, but for a YouTube site. I told her she could download the file if she wants, but that an EXE file wouldn’t install on our Macbook.

Congrats on the book! Very cool.
We should get that in the curriculum at the U, they could use a course in “proper” web site creation.
