I am calling a moratorium on taking Mac Advice from Red. He does not use Macs on a regular basis; ergo, he is not going to give good advice in matters Macish. If you want to know how "crappy" a Mac Mini is, ask Aurora or Kriz, who, unlike Red, ACTUALLY USE Mac Minis. Can we agree that USING and being FAMILIAR with something should be a perquisite for giving advice?

That said, personally I'm not fond of Mac Minis because... well... they're too small. Plus I'm really more of an all-in-one person anyway... *stares at iMacs, Commodore VIC Slim/Pro/New!C64* owo

I figured I'd wait until either Aurora pops back in or Kriz returns to get some more info. All I know is that having a Mac in a package smaller than my laptop is appealing; especially since I'm short on desk space

Chocofreak13

wait, smaller than a laptop? maybe i should look into that.....

Yeah; it has a width of 7.7 x 7.7 inches from what I read, compared to Asagi at 10 x 15 inches, with both having a height of 1.4 inches. Also, you have to admit it's pretty cool; having something barely bigger than a CD player having a fully functional Mac inside it.

Now, I should get a new Mac Mini and a fried Apple II, and attempt a mod...if I was a little more crafty, that is

Here's a size comparison, for those who aren't familiar with Minis:



In addition to a cough, stuffy nose and ceaseless sneezing, I'm now feverish. Not by much, but it's enough to make me chilled/want to wrap up in blankets/know if i do I'll risk overheating more. Urrrgh.

But there is good news! Stewart-kun and I came up with my gravestone inscription, you know, in case I don't live through this:

"She died like she lived
In Bed"

@bells: i'm almost cracking up too much to be mad at you. nice tombstone. >w<

however, can we agree that we don't talk politics or anything else worth debating this summer? ><;;;;

Well, that doujin I mentioned buying earlier in the topic arrived today. Expect to see a topic about it later on

It says "For Adults Only" on the cover; which either means it's some damn good stuff or it's something that will bring on a BSOD. I'll soon find out...

Chocofreak13

if it's BSOD-inducing, send it to me and i'll send you a refund. :\ (since 9 times out of 10 i'm ok with the weirder stuff.)

I actually just went through it. You can see my thoughts on it in the topic I'm working on...which, seeing as it is a hentai, would it be ok for the OS-tans Comics board if I don't go into too many details on what happens, or should I post it over in the Hentai board just to be safe?

Chocofreak13

when in doubt, be safe. >>;

so

sup guys?

Nothing much; just writing a review of that doujin to pass the time before Doctor Who

Chocofreak13

holes is on, y'know. :\ might help pass the time.

Never did watch Holes.

If that's what I'm thinking it is, my grandma made a big deal about how I needed to read the book, although it never interested me (That, and aside from Harry Potter, the books she'd always tell me I "needed to read" where always dull and uninteresting)

Chocofreak13

holes was pretty good according to my sister. plus the chapters were only one page each. :\


so guys, i think i win the contest for "worst dad". gimmie my goddamn medal.
