What I see from a lot of OSS projects (many major ones at that) are patches that while they fix a particular problem, they have not been rigorously tested to see if the patch cause any problems somewhere else. While MicroSoft in general do test in thousands upon thousands configurations, apparently this particular one was not tested against for some reason. This article clearly shows the importance of testing a patch on various configurations before releasing it to the public. If you don’t like osx or apple, that’s fine, but it seems your grasping at straws to make a point about mac’s being just incapable of some obscure task. Afterall, if there’s a *nix version, there’s a good chance that it already works or can be made to work on osx. I’d hardly say having a program to ‘hack’ your phone’s “seem”‘s is a shortcoming on mac that makes windows just a no brainer, c’mon. Because the information a seem holds cannot typically be altered directly through the handset, specialized software and a USB data cable is required to perform “mods”, or modifications.” The Motorola E815 has 9,000 (0x2328) unique master seem records, but only really a half dozen that are interesting. Typical modern Motorola phones include a seem, although they are usually slightly different between manufacturer chipsets. “A seem is a portion of nonvolatile memory, usually small in size, containing operational data and parameters. Looks like its been possible for some time now. If you just have a BT phone w/ internet access: We’re talking about a company that has admitted that after twenty years of coding, that their latest OS is broken and needed to start over again lol…THEY HAVE LEARNED NOTHING! Switch it all around and put Apple where MS is and tell me you wouldn’t be saying the same exact thing! Yeah I’m a troll.

Maybe Vista will be different maybe it wont. How about you think alternatively here!?! Apple or linux or Apple, whatever just leave that pile of stinking trash that is Windows where it belongs. If it was Apple that had something like PATCH TUESDAY!! Wake up! Would you have any doubt in your mind that it’s time to try something different. Troll? It’s not like I’m wrong or anything! WIndows is a huge pile of sh*te.

Just because Apple is switching to a different processor means what exactly? That Apple’s operating systems will become as vulnerable because the run on Intel? What?Īnd the term WinTel is need more now then before because Apple is moving over to x86 and when people start asking questions it will be easier to define one from the other with less tech speak.
