| 673849 | 2008-05-30 07:16:00 | Its a standard security software update from Apple. I downloaded it last night. No one ever said that OS X doesn't need or get security updates and OS updates. The update 10.5.3 was also released on the 28th May. | vitalstatistix (9182) | ||
| 673850 | 2008-05-30 07:31:00 | I was in Dick Smiths last weekend looking at a new notebook when I was hassled by a sales assistant who said I should buy a mac. Was quite insistent about it, even though she knew i wasn't interested in one. I ended up telling her to shove it and walking out the door. That is one sale DSE will not get from me, regardless of what price they have. Bl***y mac fangirls. Ken :punk |

Ken :punk I've seen the same thing happen with PC laptops and "sales people" - they all want you to buy so they can get their commission although she was obviously not that good a sales person in the fact that she pissed you off and probably lost a customer in the process. Sometimes a better sales person will know when to stop pushing and let you go so that they can move on to the next customer. |

Ken :banana PS she could also have made a correct assumptiom :clap There is actually or should be a difference between a PC sales person and a Mac sales person - With PC sales there is a lot more requirement to go through the machine specs, price, add ons, discounts, what is the next model, graphics cards etc which requires more of a hard sell. The best way to sell a Mac in store is to let it sell itself - if the person doesn't want it - don't waste your time on them unless they are a student or have friends who have Macs. |

| 673855 | 2008-05-30 23:02:00 | I have used macs at polytech while a student and I am not a fanboy, I like building my own machines to my own specs and budget and to upgrade them as I and not someone else sees fit, so will be staying with my computers and keeping XP until I have to upgrade them will be going linux as already playing with ubuntu on a spare machine. I just get annoyed when mac fans keeping pressing the "How safe they are and they don't get bugs" |

I just get annoyed when mac fans keeping pressing the "How safe they are and they don't get bugs" Bugs would depend more on the system version - 10.5.versions 1 & 2 have had the "normal" amount of system bugs for a version release as did 10.4.1&2 Theoretically x.3 should be correcting most of those, corrupted files on apps are more common and more annoying. |

It really depends on who makes the software rather than the operating system it is running on. What there aren't are hundreds of viruses. ;) | maccrazy (6741) | ||
