Re: Mac verses Windows
Hey everyone. I thought Id come back here and give my initial opinion(s) on the Mac using Voiceover. I got a Mac Book Air on the 27th of December which is 2 days after Christmas, and Ive been having some fun. I really like it thus far, and Voiceover is quite good. I

Re: Mac verses Windows
Hi.there have been a beta version of Winamp very long time ago, but it was totally inaccessible, so I stick with vlc player, which works really awesome on the Mac.The new iwork apple released last tuesday this week is amazing. Now we have a totally accessible office pack,
Re: Mac verses Windows
That curser thing is interesting though I have noticed on windows people often dont know the difference between back space and delete, ie, back space removes the letter behind! the curser position, delete removes what the curser is actually on. Visually the curser isnt
Re: Mac verses Windows
Last Ik checked, Winamp didnt list a mac version on their site. There is one for Linux but not mac.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=153028#p153028

Re: Mac verses Windows
Hi.I must say, Im still not really a big fan of mac.I dont like its way of opening folders , to me its very very fiddly. What I mean is you have to press command option dilta? to open the folders treview, and to close it you knead to find the folders main root, then press
Re: Mac verses Windows
One of the problems for me if I decided to get a mac would simply be running the stuff I have. My entire thesis is written in ms word doc format, because thats what the university used and what I started with, and itd be pretty silly for me to move to an os where I could
Re: Mac verses Windows
I have been on the fence with the idea of buying a mac for the last year or so. On the one hand, i think its possible to do just about everything you could do on windows with some research and know how. However, from what i gather, this can be a pain at times, and require
Re: Mac verses Windows
Fair enough Arq, I admit Im curious myself about a mac, though to be honest Im not curious enough to either expend the money or time on one. Then again Id freely admit Im not a tech nurd myself in quite that way, I dont really care how! something works so long as it does
Re: Mac verses Windows
Hi.Dark, you can open doc and docx files on a mac. You can open most common file types on a mac that you can on windows so file compatibility really isnt an issue.The only area it might be is with .exe files, since the mac doesnt run windows executables. All the

Hmmm, good to know about doc and dox files, I did wonder if they were an ms proprietary thing.URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=152908#p152908

Re: Mac verses Windows
Hi.Yep, you can open pretty much any text file format on the mac that you can open with windows.As for powerpoint and spreadsheets, I think you can use open office or apples pages to access those, though I dont know how well VoiceOver handles those types of things.I dont
Re: Mac verses Windows
Dark, no the doc and dox file formats are not proprietary to Windows or Microsoft Office. As you know I am a Linux user, and I can compose and read doc and dox files in OpenOffice, LibreOffice, and StarOffice. So its not a case of if you chose Mac or Linux of not being
Re: Mac verses Windows
Well said Thomas.As for media players, vlc is a good free one that I use instead of iTunes.I wish they had winamp for the mac, though vlc seems to be all right except for a few unlabeled buttons though those can be managed because they have help tags. All you have to do
Re: Mac verses Windows
Well Tom as I said I would indeed like the chance to play with a mac at some point just for interests sake since I wouldnt mind seeing the interface for things like E-mail, desktop, file management etc, and bare in mind I am asking about things like media files in this

Re: Mac verses Windows
while everyone sings apples praizes for the free OS update, Im going to slam them for the fact that they have removed the 15.4 inch non-retna version of the macbook pro from the store. I litterally was just about to order that verry machine, upgrade it to the 2.6 GHZ
Re: Mac verses Windows
If youve not used both operating systems, you really cant give much an opinion. Ive used Windows for a long time, and recently got a MacBook. My thoughts follow.Generally I have found the UI to be very nice. VoiceOver works well, though it can take some adjusting if youve
Re: Mac verses Windows
Ah, I notice nobody else has posted in here. Not even Kyle, maybe you scared him off, lol! So I think Ill just go ahead and give my opinion on the matter. Ive never used a Mac. So there you go! I guessed Im biased? I like Windows!URL:
