    2 button mouse? Scroll wheel?

    They do, and it comes as standard. Of course, you can also use any usb mouse you want, and everything just works.

    Problems installing OSX

    If you're willing to wait (and spend $9.95 + tax + postage), you can go here and download a form to request CDs by mail.

    Poll: What was the most ground breaking consumer desktop CPU?

    MOS Technology made the 6502, not Motorola.

    7900GT in Mac Pro

    It works fine, just not under OS X.

    Modifying default user accounts in OSX?

    The default user account template is located in /System/Library/User Template/English.lproj (there are others for French, German, etc.). Just put the right files in the right places, and that's it.

    Is Mac anygood?

    No, just some detailed info on the chip itself. All I could find on Intel's site was a bunch of bullet points.

    Is Mac anygood?

    It should be fine from a speed perspective, but some people have had problems running it in Rosetta. There doesn't seem to be a consistent pattern behind it though. Is it? It supports a DX9 level feature set, but it does do some big stuff in software (T&L) so it's slower than it would...

    Is Mac anygood?

    No, since the GMA 950 doesn't meet the minimum spec for the graphics hardware.

    It certainly wouldn't hurt, but I don't know enough about how Windows XP manages memory to tell you if the difference is as big as it is under OS X.

    Is Mac anygood?

    Under OS X more ram makes a big difference, especially with an Intel machine. You'll want to bump the ram up to 1 or 2 GB.

    Is Mac anygood?

    Let's see: You can't run it natively, but if you really want to you can install Boot Camp and dual boot between OS X and Windows XP. The MacBooks (non pro) use an Intel GMA 950, so it won't be a gaming powerhouse, even running Windows. Other stuff should be just fine.

    Is Mac anygood?

    Not really. It depends on what games you play and how often you do it. As fast any PC notebook with similar specs.

    Looking for a OSX program that plays MPGs over a network

    That's not going to happen: It's no big deal though. This is much better than WMP ever was.
