I got an original Mac in '84 and have been using them ever since. I'm with the group that feels this is one of the most troublesome hardware/software products Apple has ever produced. Kind of wondering what other people thought about the idea, and whether it was feasible. It was more of a general suggestion, and as Ralph pointed out there is a way to make suggestions to Apple. More often than not that is aMSN with my MSN friends.
I prefer to use my Mac, which is in my den. Don't know that everyone would do that though. I've actually purchased Logitech cam for my PC, as a backup.

Use a real PC to video conference with all of your Solution becomes available, you're best bet may be to Until such time as a decent Mac/PC video conferencing The fact that iChat only uses the AIM protocol is a real hinderance in my opinion and I think if we are not going to get MSN and Yahoo compatibility, that producing a PC version would be a good, if not better alternative.

I know my friends would install it if we could get the quality of video that we should. Of course a Windows version isn't going to fix all the problems, but it could ensure that the compatibility was there and the settings correct. Success seems to be hit and miss, for example I can only connect when they initiate the video chat. Even when doing this success is erratic and the AIM program problematic. Then they may or may not have to tune it, set the firewall, etc. To video chat with us we ask them to download and install AIM. (.mac messaging?)Īs we all know, our many PC friends use MSN, Yahoo and AIM. Along with that they should drop the AIM protocol and use their own. After seeing many Win32 boxes that are grinding slow due to bad fragmentation problems … it seems refreshingly sensible.After reading this forum and the iSight forum for for awhile now and having trouble connecting with various PC friends at times, it seems to me that the most reasonable solution to at least a large portion of the problems would be to develop and release a Windows version of iChat.
OSX updates do have one nice feature they tend to tag a defragmentation exercise into the larger updates. The trade off seems observable though I’m sure it doesn’t HAVE to be this way.

Partly this is the price of (almost) endless backward compatibility and Microsoft do seem to try to bolt features on and then add security as an after thought.Īpples Mac OSX is somewhere between the two and some would say the best of both ends of the spectrum – a reasonable compromise. If you want the desktop conveniences to be easy then you have Windows and there you have many new security challenges each week. You will have fun setting up desktop conveniences such as RealPlayer, Skype, and so on.

If you want a secure machine that you don’t have to update for 6 to 12 months then go try OpenBSD for desktop use. Of course the computing public won’t stand for this very long, it will be broken.įolk are starting to moan at Apple about security updates well fine.
They also decided what programs they don’t trust us with. What of course they don’t tell you is that they have already decided what is trusted, you don’t have that power, they also decided not to trust us. Bingo! There’s the justification for enacting these strong DRM measures “It’s going to make your computing experience safer” Now imagine if Apple carefully leaves a few holes open, nothing dangerous, but something enough to get the anti-malware companies going, a exploit appears, Apple patches it right away. Perhaps this is all BS to get us to accept Trusted Computing.įor example, imagine if there is a sudden backlash against Trusted Computing, Mac folks think it’s unneccessary because their operating system has always been very secure.

Perhaps that article about Apple code not being run through exploit check software is true.Īpple needs to hire some criminals to understand some things about human behavior, to think ahead how something can be exploited instead of this Microsoft “knee jerk” reaction to security. If these holes were closed so fast and easily, how come they existed in the first place?
