its pretty evident that apple is just lifting the technology used in windows that dates back to the 80's.

innovation my ass, time to go reactivate my copy of leopard

apple store said i'd probably need to boot into safe mode and perform some registry edits to get the thing working again

i asked for a refund but i think ill just sell it closer to when windows 7 comes out, then i'll get the ORIGINAL operating system...not this overpriced gimmick

Hold down Squiggle + F + U or something.

Just kidding, it's Squiggle + D for disk (I think), Squiggle + C for CD, Squiggle P+R for cleaning rom.

I think. But go hit him in liver anyway for good measure. Freaking despise working on the Mac's at work. 4 Processors and 3 Gigs of RAM should not take 6 hours for a 45 minute DVD. Particularly if the processor only runs at 40% the whole time. Let's get with the freaking program Final Cut HD.

I'm pretty sure squiggle + shift + f + u + only mouse button just brings up the "right-click" menu.

seriously, if you have a problem using a mac, it's not because the machine is stupid. it's you. maybe you should go get a Speak-n-Spell:
