  • the sound startes at 27 if you dont know what im talking about.

  • i love that sound that it makes when it startes up

  • i was a windows user but i tryed leopard and i made the switch but i stilll use windows on a day to day bases

  • nice mystery science theatre

  • i have a 32bit vista cd maybe when i get a macbook ill get a 62bit to play games on it o.O, i have a gateway laptop right now runnin xp and vista 32bit is awful on it lol

  • Too many quick Launch icons.

  • you sound pretty retarded

  • Anyone found Vista on Bootcamp unstable? I'm still not sure to get a copy of Vista for my Mac or not.

  • it depends on if you can support 64 bit or not... because the problem is that 32 bit is VERY UNSTABLE regardless.. 64 Bit is VERY stable and 95% of complaints come from 32 Bit Vista.

    so that's why people are saying it sucks... 64 bit (which i am running) is amazing. havent had a single freeze up yet!

  • Ya I think they only sell the 64 bit versions of Vista now anyways. Sometimes cross platform OS just have too many glitches. I'm gonna give it a try. Thanks for the response.

  • Wow, I've never seen so many ignorant comments before! So what if someone wants to install Windows on a Mac. Infact, Apple even advertises the Mac Computer as: "the only computer you'll ever need" because some people actually like Windows and Mac computers at the same time... and most importantly: these people SHOULD NOT be bothered with NEGATIVE, FANBOY COMMENTS!

  • Exactly. I am a software developer and some of the tools that I use are available only on Windows. That's why I dual-boot Mac and Windows.

  • only an idiot would choose not to have more choice. I also run a MBP and am currently hunting down my vista cd....which i can only assume has slipped through the cracks of this dimentional plane onto the next. Then i am going to run both osx and vista because they are both incredibly good operating systems

    Peace

  • a way better graphics card then what? there are some laptops with a quad core extreme and 8800mgtx graphics.

  • Well, I just got Home Premium version of Vista and installed it on my 17" Macbook Pro 2.4 Ghz laptop. Vista doesn't recognize my graphics card or my wireless internet. ANy tips to get this thing to work would be greatly appreciated!

  • That's not the fan, he has a CD in the disc drive. Most laptops get loud with a loaded drive.

  • Hey, can it run window XP Pro (smoothly)??

  • ......soooo why did u get the mac???........

  • because it runs vista faster tard..lol

  • a mac is a pc running mac.. there will be no difference between running a on a macbook and a windows laptop with the same specs. tard

  • nope, the macbook pro has a wauyyyyyy better graphics card... im not callin u a "tard" cuz thats just nerdy and gay. lemme guess, you dont get much pussy, am i wrong?

  • "macbook pro has a wauyyyyyy better graphics"

    Uh no. Have you customised a dell laptop lately? Could be at LEAST 3 times as better as a mac.

    I kinda steering towards getting a mac... but i don't know why... i love windows to much x.x

  • not any dell xps i have ever configured when i was bored had more video ram or w/e than a macbook pro. maybe a desktop, but then again the mac pro has up to 1.5 gb video ram

  • Not even desktop graphics cards have that much vram. I think what is happening is that the RAM is being shared, which is what is done. Customising a dell XPS laptop now I'm getting Intel Core2 Extreme Processor 2.8GHz, 4 gig of ram, 500 gig hdd or 64 gig SS hdd, 2x8800M GTX SLI.... don't think you can get a mac book like that

  • yes, the mac pro desktop has that much vram. and you're wrong, a macbook pro does come with 2.8 ghz and 4 gigs of ram. the 500 gb hard drive is not an option as of now, but you could easily buy an aftermmarket one. also, the mac has 128 gb sshd.

  • Oh the quadro... but you see i was refering to mac book not iamexpensice (imac pro), and can a macbook have 8800's SLI'd? no.

  • NO!! I had one jsut like that and had to send it back to DELL because it sucked so bad. Trust me. It looks all glamorous when you are looking at it on the internet, like nothing can go wrong.... When you get it you'll want to kill yourself. Also DELL Customer Service sucks balls since they are based in the Philippines or some shit and don't give a damn. If you ever have trouble call the American one.

  • Thats a shame Dell sucks in the US. In Australia Dell is absolutely awesome, any probs i've had they send out a techy the next day to fix it! Tiz a shame you don't get what dell should be over there

  • i hate windows XD

  • It's slow... my friend's notebook opens up IE instantly. Core 2 Duo with 4gb of ram.

  • firefox=better and faster

  • Dude, this is over a year ago. This was probably only a Core 1. And it probably only had 1 gig, maybe 2 gigs of ram.

  • you have a lot of things on your quick launch toolbar

  • a running applications fast

  • man i tis soooo cool that the pro is a dual core laptop , I can't wait to get one myself soon, i want the ultimate vista on mine too

  • man i tis soooo cool that the pro is a dual core laptop , I can't wait to get one myself soon, i want the ultimate vista on mine too

  • I install windows vista on my macbook ,,,Where i can find the webcam and airport drivers?????????? for vista????

  • use the OSX disc - i'm not sure which one it includes windows drivers

  • Bootcamp should have you burn a disk with them :)

  • what's your macbook pro spec? It runs really smoothly man.

  • your macbook is loud

  • it runs very nice

  • I think it is sort of weird that Vista runs fastest on the Macbook Pro. Poor PC's.

  • hell yeah! macs are the way to go im sold.

  • sidebar dashboard gadgets widgets?? come on windows switcher? application switcher? preview pane? quicklook? that search thing in the start menu? spotlight? time machine? shadow? they gotta turn off the photocopiers.

  • What on earth are you doing with all of those quickstart buttons? thats ridiculous, take care of your computer.

  • Windows XP and Vista still seems to run better on a Mac than on a PC. Ironic.

    The only reason I use Windows is to play some games, allthough I could port them to Mac, but I'm too lazy. Gonna install Vista on mine though, but I'm no way in hell gonna buy it.

  • Not a bias comment at all. Can you see how slowly vista is running here? It runs 3 times faster on my computer, and this is the best macs got to offer, so stop your fanboyism

  • So you boot Vista in just below 10 seconds? Wow, that's impressive. You going for a world record?

    That is far from the best of the best Macs have to offer, that looks like a "15 MacBook Pro and that's not even close to the best, it's the best low-end performance Mac.

    Stop bitching cheerleader.

  • good job xaeron!!!

  • u should get parlles so u can run mac and vista

  • 0.0 nice mac dude.

  • i hate that sidebar.. vista is preety cool now.. give it a try..

  • I'm running BeOS on it now, btw.

  • Now that Leopard is out the whole point of this video is moot. Stop arguing on my dime. ;)

  • change the power of a *nix decendent for microsoft windows garbage man or you are insane or you don't like to have decent system on your computer please..... windows on a mac sweet jesus not enven on a PC long live the real operative systems (*nix) ....

    where you missing the old vírus and spyware and all that junk, that comes for free with windowns lol, witch is in fact the only thing that comes for free on that platform, viruz and bugs lol, happy hunting sadistic!!

  • Dude use firefox. IE stinks.

  • Dude, use Opera. Or say something positive, jeez.

  • I didn't really care for Opera. Some sites like Yahoo didn't seem to load right.

  • i agree

  • Not to mention Opera is slow. Really slow.

  • I love mac and VIsta too having these two operative systems in a common Laptop PC it's the most awesome thing, I wanna buy an Apple Macbook Pro but it is really expensive it's about 2000 euros in my contry here in MAcedonia, but I'll definitelly buy the laptop whatever it takes till this summer

  • there will be an update to the macbook pro b4 then probably with a faster processor

  • i love that show

  • Woot!!....

    Mystery Science Theatre....3000!!!

  • wow! that boots faster than my dell with windows vista basic!! although i did upgrade from xp home edition, and i only have 768MB of ram.. i need a mac haha

  • Or you could upgrade for a quarter of the price you would get for a mac

  • depending on hwo many games you have, id put about 30 unless you dont have alot then put like 15.

    the install takes about 5

  • u better put windows in that mac yeah nice

  • man VISTA IS SLOW...

  • it's not VISTA, it's the computer.. i have VISTA and it boots up like 10x faster than that computer..

  • oh so vista boots in less than 4 seconds for you...sure....

    (vista sucks)

  • thats why pc magazine rated the macbook pro as the fastest vista laptop....

  • not on a mac

  • Wow, im getting my Mac in a week, how do i do this exactly though?

  • It's caled Boot Camp. You can download a public beta of it from Apple. And the final version will be shipped with Leopard. I too am getting a Mac in a week, and I'm very excited.

  • nice job, anything but mac os x

  • where did you get that wallpaper?

  • I made it. Got the shuttle pic from NASA, then overlayed (overlaid?) the shadowrama stuff.

  • thanks

  • u have the same camera as me!

    first dual lens digital camera

    lol

  • Question, If I install vista? Do I need to install also the drivers like the Video cards drivers etc again?

  • hope this help or by now u know but no u dont need to install any hard ware drivers

  • I'm a windows user, so not really my field, but i would presume yes becasue its a different operating system with obviously different code, i dont think windows would recognise drivers designed for OSX

  • shit

  • hey, what was the name of the podcast software that you showed in this video?

  • nice vid. apple is a great company. you seemed to have loads of emals !

  • all who use mac know that windows vista is better so they try 2 show all the errors and fauls that windows have and make some big out of that, but they dont wanna show that errors anf fauls mac has. because it is to many. but any way mac suck.

  • @ordforalt

    um....no, vista sucks

  • Although i agree with this comment, not really the place to start the mac vs pc again, i myself are a windows user and have not really liked apple, so i really dont wanna see no vista is slow and bsod'y, but macs are expensive, slow, un upgradable etc.. so lets keep the peace

  • runs a little slow i was expecting it to run much faster......

  • have u played any video games on it?? I think it might be worth it to buy a mac book pro insteasd of upgradeing my pc

  • are you able to put vista AND XP on the macbook along with OS X?

    "triple boot" basically.

  • Yeah, in response to PoliticalAnalysis.I have a MacBook Pro and I am a college student...I had to install Xp on my MacBook Pro in order to run some required software for school that are not compatible with OS X.

  • Hum, I wonder if Outlook 2007 will work????? lol

    Noob.

  • You would run Vista to access software compatible w/ only that operating system.

  • Right, but why not run XP, as opposed to Vista. Vista is going to have flaws, and the interface is so similar to OS X, there's no reason to run Vista on bootcamp vs. XP....

  • I don't really understand the rationale behind running Windows Vista on a mac as it is? I love my macbook with OS X, and though I bootcamp Xp, I see no reason to run Vista, as it and OS X are strikingly similar...

  • Well if you cant think of a reason not to then whats wrong with it.

  • what did vista rate your computer at and what was the lowest score on?

  • What does not work

  • buhtt yoo is it good or r ther any problems wen runnin vista ultimate on da macbook pro?

  • Wow. Is this the same Macbook Pro as you used before in the other video? It booted like WAY faster! Guess that shows you get what you pay for.

  • na it justs because betas are always slower

  • it't not a beta is the rtm is the copy that you actually buy on any store

  • yuh windows vista boots alot faster on my computer then when i had xp on it...and my computers 4 years old ...go figure

  • I am thinking of getting a macbook but which do u recommend i dont have enough money for the best mbp

  • i woyld recommend the macbook pro if you are thinking of doing alot at the same time or if ur thinking of gaming on it if not then just go for the mac book

  • Hey where did u get that background?

  • I downloaded the picture from a NASA website, then added the MST3K shadowrama myself.

  • Is that a macbook pro with intel core 2 duo?

    What are the specs for your macbook?

    Can you drag files between Mac OS X and Windows Vista? For example, if you wanted itunes on both Vista and Mac, could you drag the files you bought from the itunes music store between the operating systems?

  • No. It's one of the original MacBook Pros with Intel Core Duo (not Core 2 Duo). 2GHz, 2GB RAM.

    No, can't drag files. Maybe with the future killer version of Parallels, but not today. Can't *write* to Vista's NTFS partition without 3rd party tools...yet.

  • I know your password!

  • Yeah, it's "billgates". ;)

  • Why would you install a copy of osx, on a computer that already had osx preinstalled?

  • Good point. 1) To show it works. 2) To drive Mac (hardware) sales up for people who want to run Vista. 3) Because I have a job. I support Windows users.

  • You say not everything works due to driver issues. What doesn't work?

    Thanks for the video btw.

  • iSight camera, remote control...that all I can think of, due to drivers. Second Life doesn't detect the video correctly, so it doesn't want to run. Google Earth has some issues. Mostly 3D stuff.

  • Actually, I just downloaded the latest drivers from ATI and Google Earth works fine now (as does Chess Titans, which also had a 3D problem). Second Life now gets past "detecting hardware" but then crashes.

  • Strange, you'd assume that the drives would fix that. I installed Vista on parallels last night, as its... alright. Nothing great. Still feels like XP for me!

  • I think it has to do with OpenGL support in the ATI driver. If anyone can get Second Life to work under Vista with ATI drivers...please let me know.

    Meanwhile, Parallels rocks! They are working on enhancements to "Parallels Desktop for Mac" that will really distinguish themselves from VMware (who are also awesome, but focused on portability of the VM). Watch for the next version of Parallels...it's gonna kick ass.

  • So, the latest version of Bootcamp has no problems with a Vista install? Are you pleased wtih the performance of how it runs on your MacBook Pro? What are the specs on your MacBook -- is it the Intel Core 2? How much ram? Thank you for posting -- very good! 5 Stars - Alfred

  • Original MacBook Pro (2GHz Intel Core Duo, 2GB RAM). Boot Camp does not officially support Vista yet, but it can be done. Check out the forums at InsanelyMac for a great guide called "[HowTo] Mac Drivers for Windows Vista].

  • Installing Vista is exactly the same as installing XP, even though it isn't officially supported yet. Vista runs really well as you can see. I love my MPB! Awesome!
