OSX Leopard Boot Time: Mac Mini SSD & Dell Mini 9

[SimplyCarLo]

Hackintosh is Wack-intosh...

[Yamcha67]

Plus if you know your history then you'll know way back when they said that radio, television, video cassettes would destroy  music, hollywood, & cinema industries.. but it didn't..

[muk546]

illegal

[Yamcha67]

nobody cares

[muk546]

i bet you steal your music too

[Yamcha67]

@muk546

Dude everyone downloads stuff, and everyone I know watches movies/episodes streaming, which is illegal, theres tons of illegal content on youtube aswell.. Sure some of it gets removed, but someone uploads it again, so my point is this is the future, what can we really do? about 25%-55% of the internet traffic all comes from torrents, which is basically sharing files.. so don't point the finger at me :P

[muk546]

well its wrong and people should do right by them selves

[Yamcha67]

@muk546

And anyway nobody can really do anything about it. I'm in Canada and here sharing files or downloading them is LEGAL, but uploading is illegal, and the reason its legal is because I'm quoting "Nothing can be done about it", they would literally have to put 100 millions of ppl in jail :P or even more.. its not gonna happen..

[Yamcha67]

@Yamcha67

Sharing files isn't stealing.. You buy a movie and watch with your family.. thats what P2P is its sharing, except with everyone..

@muk546 moddafucka!

[Secret1337]

Oh BTW Nice setup :)

[Atheismrulez]

"saying "you FAIL" doesn't make you cool, haha... "

I never meant for it to sound cool. I was being realistic.

""your degree means shit" do you think i care..."

Apparently, you do, since you took time to mention "going to college" and "being a computer engineer" as an argument, even though it's a logical fallacy.

Seriously, all you have said so far contains fail.

[Atheismrulez]

"fucking kid who doesnt know anything about computers..."

Nice strawman fallacy. Apart from that, it's easy to see that you fail horribly. And your degree means shit. A piece of paper doesn't prove anything. Your skills should talk for themselves. More than 60% of software developers don't have a degree.

"btw i bet you go every sunday to church with your mommy"

Funny thing is that I'm an atheist, and my mom is a Wicca. You fail horribly. Keep it up; keep embarrassing yourself.

[Atheismrulez]

More ignorance. You ignoramus should get off the internet. It's exactly the same. Only difference is that installing takes somewhat more procedure and that you have to go through a firmware screen (BIOS) when starting up.

[Secret1337]

Dude don't take flames so seriously it's just youtube...

[dagamelord]

Damn! SSD is fast!

[cjmillsnun]

Umm Hackintosh IS the real Mac OSX. It isn't Windows with a skin..

[elizle]

Those Falcons are blazin' aren't they? I have one that I bought for my laptop, but it ended up dying right after i got it. I have it running on a Windows 7 makeshift machine until I get some problems resolved.

[aegnt09]

Hey it proves hackintosh is slow as hell (i used it and not only was it slow but it killed the hard drive)

[QuickSiR]

This reply proves you know fuck all about Macs and Hackintosh. lol

The Dell Mini 9 runs OSX extremely well.

It boots up much faster and shuts down faster then any stock Apple laptops (Macbook, Macbook Pro and Macbook Air).

[aegnt09]

I have a mac and a pc. mackintosh is slow.

[aegnt09]

i mean hackintosh

[cjmillsnun]

Had an old toshiba as a hackintosh for 18 months. Was a great machine like that. Although my new MB is faster.

[Atheismrulez]

You fit well the image of a typical Apple fanboy: ignorant and liars. Also, you fail at trolling.

[aegnt09]

Lest see here i have owned 5 PC's 1 with hackintosh, and 1 with ubuntu, 3 macs all having vista, xp, and windows 7 beta on them.

infact i was using windows 7 today playing nazi zombies. btw i had about 4 crashes today alone.

you however have unlikely even touched a real mac in your life.

I and most other Mac users have tried all alternatives , i appears you PC fanboys are the ignorant ones.

[Atheismrulez]

Oh, and BTW, about this "alternative" bullshit argument of yours: I found a great and much better alternative to a Mac (aka custom built computer), and I have been thinking of selling my Mac for some weeks now. The Mac mini has horrible specs for it's price tag and not many features.

And the fact that you've owned a number of PCs doesn't prove shit. I've already installed OS X 86 on some PCs and it's easy if you have a compatible motherboard and graphics card.

angry nerd alert

[Atheismrulez]

Nerd: I don't think you know what it means. I don't spend the day learning about computers. Now STFU.

[kojinmalia]

@aegnt09 Idiot... Didn't you notice they don't have same SSD? And their hardware is like a Snail VS a Leopard?

[statman4ever]

Does the VGA output work on the mini?

[QuickSiR]

I never tried the VGA output.

Things that work:

Wifi

Trackpad (two finger scroll)

Speakers

Mic

Webcam

Bluetooth

SD Card Reader

USB ports

[mcgrady7761]

what is this comparaing?

[rocketmanket]

How crappy the Dell Mini SSD is. But it's quite decent if you can salvage one for cheap. Otherwise, get a Falcon (or OCZ Vertex).

[QuickSiR]

You can't put a standard 2.5" SSD in the Dell Mini 9.

[rocketmanket]

I didn't mean to put an SSD in the Mini, but rather use the SSD in it on another laptop.

I see it's a PATA interface. Not much use then.

[DumbDuck44]

@QuickSiR Yep, but RunCore makes really fast SSDs that fit in the Mini 9. =)
