Entering the Mac world!

[ø]

Yepp, got myself an iMac yesterday! Didn't get to fix the internet last night so therefore im posting today. I spent whole yesterday messing around with the Photo Booth so:P
Am I like hip...now? Is there a club I can join?:)

And yea.. it's tha sweetness:love:

[Cello]

Oh dear, another iMac-ist. One day it will be realised that it's so much easier with a PC. Okay, you might have to get Vista first... ;)

[ø]

You can't convince me just yet! Gotta love the tosh:D

[Yeldarb]

Welcome to the cult :D

[ø]

Thanks guys!:)
Just a question to you mac'ers. I've got the iSight cam right, is it possible to use that with msn messenger? Haven't really tested it yet tho, but maybe there was a catch!?

[leisuresuitlissy]

Congrats, girly =) Enjoy your new plaything.

[RadioactveChimp]

your isight is yours, you can use it for whatever you want. Welcome to the world of mac, where there are never catches......rarely

Unfortunately, no. Rumor has it that Apple is making an iChat client for Windows though so you can video conference with Windows users. And Parallels is working on a solution for the VM. But at this point you can't video chat with Windows users.

There is no way you missed the whole 'Dizzy: 5th appendage or no 5th appendage' saga.

You missed that?!

It was a hoot. He posted a pic as "Dizzy" and had myself and the rest of the random rejects were convinced he was a girl. It was clearly an unflattering shot. :lol:

It took like a solid month and a name change to convince us otherwise.

I've not been a fan of macs untill recently. A buddy of mine brought over his new lappy. I was impressed.

[Starpromo]

Is it possible to use the iSight on MSN if you run it in Bootcamp? But anyway, Video Conferencing PWNs on iChat so thats all that matters.

[ø]

Fes: that was a down period of my life. I had almost forgotten!

Star: Haven't tried iChat yet. Gonna try it when I get home, it sounds kool:D

[Starpromo]

Its okay if you and anyone you know uses AOL... If not its a little limited. But i use it to talk to my folks in New Zealand. For that its genius.

[fester8542]

:lol: Sorry to re-open that wound dog

[ø]

It's ok... *woff*?
:smirk:

[BoonDock]

iChat doesn't get along with my girlfriend's connection at college - constantly boots her off ...

[ø]

I've got a question for you guys with mac's and msn messenger;

Since the iSight cam doesnt go on msn I tried to use my DV Cam. The only thing is that I can't get it to work. I can't find any settings on cams, help text about it etc.
Do you know what to do?

[Starpromo]

Yes the only thing you can do is sit and wait for Microsoft to get off there arses and make MSN messanger for Mac the same as the one for Windows. Basically you can't use a webcam with MSN on a Mac.

[ø]

Blah;P

Have they any plans on doing that?

[ø]

*bump*

I found a software for mac called aMSN. It works like the regular msn, but it also supports webcam. The only thing is that it looks and works like poop:)

Just thought you'd all know;)

[evildrummer]

aMSN is pure horrible, I have it on this machine and opened it once and its ugliness made me lose 18.33333333333 years or my life!

[ø]

I warned you didn't I ?:cowbell:

[fasterthanlight™]

basically every 'new' msn version for mac is still about 2 versions behind the windows counterpart. *flips microsoft the big dirty bird*

[hybrid101]

Adium:P

[grimdeath]

But at this point you can't video chat with Windows users.

Yes you can, the only problem is you gotta install windows xp or vista on your mac via bootcamp :love:

I :love: my VistaMacBookPro :lol:

[=guinness=]

well, another person who bought into the apple "iLife". i dont understand the facination with people announcing that they have a mac like they have just been baptized.

i use both, mostly PC at home, G5 at work.

mac is nice, its just not a reason to celebrate.

[evildrummer]

at Guiness, I half agree, but most people here arent happy JUST because its a mac its because its much more powerfull then thair old computer.

[hl]

I have a tiny despise for people who primarily use Windows on their Mac. Most of them haven't even tried OS X.. they just used it for a few minutes to get Boot Camp setup.

Don't be hatin'.
Of course there was a reason to celebrate. It's like I bought myself a new pair of nifty slippers, just a thousand times better. So I had to right? :party:
