I use both Mac and Windows. And I am the opposite of you, the usability for Mac's suck in Finder as compared to Explorer. One can't even do a cut and paste files. And the marquee is not as easy in the detail view. The Mac requires more cliking to get the same job done for a lot of things in Finder.
For applications that come in both platforms, the usability of these programs were no difference to me. Either platforms were fine with me.
From the west coast...Vancouver, BC.
Very hard for us west coasters to race with ppl from eastern canada because of the 3 hours difference in time zone.
Thanks for the info, that's good to know the Bootcamp works better than Parallels. I was thinking trying Parallels with my MacBook, but I think I will skip it and use Bootcamp instead.
But how about hardware such as a Logitech steering wheel...will the FFB through Bootcamp as good as on a Windows PC?
I assumed you are using Vista thru Bootcamp on your iMac. But have you tried running LFS S2 on your iMac thru Bootcamp or thru Parallels? If so, does S2 run smoothly at all?
Also, will a FFB steering wheel (lets say it is a logitech wheel) works thru bootcamp?
The reason I am asking is that if S2 will work on Bootcamp, then it's a safe bet that AutoCAD will work thru Bootcamp too.
I am a Windows user for a long time, but recently I added a Macbook for myself to take it for travelling. And I would love to bring these two applications with me in the MacBook on a trip.
I agreed with you. But a lot of drivers that were doing the passing forgot that on the exit of the turn (after the apex), they don't leave you room, they just drift back toward the outside, leaving the slower driver no where to go, either he has to hit the passing car or go into the dirt.
I will have a go at it as I drive both sims.
I currently racing in the CTRA (formally STCC) working towards my Silver licence and racing in Guru, Atle is the founder which he posted a couple of messages back. I am also racing in a league using rFactor Caterham.
I believe he wanted the graphical thing, not actually changing the car steering ratio or lock to lock. I think everyone agrees not to change the lock to lock or the steering ratio.
In rFactor, you can change the graphic of the ingame steering wheel to match the rotation of your desk wheel, and the steering ratio or lock to lock stays the same.
Here's an article from Macworld magazine, http://www.macworld.com/2006/03/firstlooks/xpmini/index.php, the author has installed WinXP onto the new Intel Mac Mini. According to the article, getting a display driver is the only problem if you want to run Windows graphics in accelerated mode. But I've heard display drivers are already can be found in Internet.
