What do Mac's do amazingly with graphics?

Mac's dont get viruses because the target market is so small - why go after 6% of PC users when you could go after the 88% using Windows?

There have been Mac virus' as proof of concepts to show it's possible - it's just theres no real point.

Such an effective mac virus...

"PLEASE ENTER YOUR ADMINISTRATIVE PASSWORD!"...

If that popped up when I was opening something from the internet, I'd be awfully skeptical of putting it in without searching about that application.

These "Proof of Concepts" aren't very effective because of that.

You place far to much faith in your users - while anyone with an IQ > 5 might not be fooled, people obviously click "yes i'm sure" to UAC when opening "coolpiclol.exe" from a spammed link sent from a friend on Messenger...

Yes, but it's a lot easier to go "YES, YES, YES, YES" then pound out a password like "orangepeels123" several times. Just because Windows needs stupid systems to prevent users from doing stuff, rather than having a proper privilege system like OSX where you have a sudo type action to elevate, rather than going "hai guiz, what do you wanna do and auto-highlight yes".

You've obviously never met your average computer user.

That's fine, I don't care about everyone else.

I know what works for me, so **** everyone else

just look at yourselves...whining and flaming!
is this a forum or is this a some sort of mad kids playground?
grow up guys! :P

It's a topic about Macs, and Dustin is involved, what do you expect? :P

Get back to the topic theme!!!!

Bootcamp doesnt work because im Hackintosh user... however mvware and parallels arent good because they use too much resources from PC...


However, can anyone explain to me how to get it work via Cider. I dont understand that icon making and Control-C Control-V part in Cider tutorial which I got when downloaded it.. Any help about this?

Bootcamp is a fancy word for "dual booting". Learn to partition and have it bring up a bootloader (GRUB)

It seems like you have to be a rocket scientist to even use Mac and you have to be alien minded to even make any windows stuff work on it.

I'd rather have it easy, and not to load 100 things up just to play a freaking game. Ill stick ma dual bootz in y0 ass.

It's difficult because he's trying to do it an unsupported way. He is not using a Mac at all, he's using a PC running OSX. Installing Windows on a Mac is a 3 step process:
1) Run Boot Camp Assistant which is an idiotproof way to partition the OSX hard drive (and live resizes the active partition)
2) Insert your Windows CD/DVD and restart and follow normal Windows installation (EG hit yes a few times, enter a serial number, and run to the furthest Starbucks in your town or an adjacent town.)
3) Insert your OSX disk (in Windows), and hit (Install Windows Drivers in the Autorun part), and then a restart later and it's all working.

Compared to Windows, where you haffto go search for some Ethernet drivers without an internet connection, I'll take the Mac route any day.

Anyways - Maverick, you need to do a lot of learning, as you're using a Hackintosh PC, you need to learn how to install GRUB to your MBR, and then to install Windows.

Cider won't work, as it doesn't support creating a native window and it seems to be the first thing LFS does (and Cider is a fork of Wine, but then they took out a million features).

Crossover is your only option, and it doesn't produce bad results.

Wonderful...........

It's actually really really easy. I am crap with computer stuff and I get on much better with my Mac than my PC. And it took me about 5 minutes to figure out how to get windows installed on my mac. Then switching between XP and OSX is just a reboot which takes about a minute. A nice bonus is that my mac hasn't crashed once or got a single virus since I bought it close to 3 years ago. Actually, that's not true, I did get a virus on XP :P But I keep all my files on the OSX partition so I just removed XP and reinstalled it, then put LFS and iRacing back on XP and I'm good.

So MD, when are we gonna get iRacing/LFS going again, for some fun!

(After I get paid)

Apple rules, I was actually sat with a VP of software development at Apple today at their HQ and he was a very nice and smart man.

Thanx but tried that, and it BCA doesnt starts, actualy i got an error which says that BootCamp only works with Mac or something like that(probably recognizes Motherboard). However I have another HDD with Win on it and anyway I have to reboot PC to get Win running, that is not the problem. I wanted to run LFS nativly on Mac with no need to reboot

Yeah, because you're running a Hackintosh, BCA won't run at all.

I know you want to run LFS in OSX natively, but to be totally honest... It's not really the best way to run LFS. Sure it works.. kinda, but it's not really worth the effort to get it to work completely.
