Get a Life - You Apple Mac Fans.....

@Mattx

 

Your hatred/fixation with MacOS X is bordering on the pathological.

 

What happened is there a traumatic event in your past which tuned into a Mac-o-phobe? Did the love of your life run of with a Porsche driving Mac user.;-)

 

Do all Mac users drive Porsches ? Good lord, they must have very small penises then.

 

note to over zealous admins: lets hope I don't get told off for that comment like i did my intercourse one. They are jokes people - just jokes !!

 

Just to put the record straight, I hate Steve Jobs more than I hate Macs....;-)

 

Anyone would think I just love stiring the debate or lighting the blue touch paper wouldn't they........ who knows, I may actually own a Mac....

Who would like stirring debate?

 

And if you *did* own a Mac, I bet you hide it inside a Dell box when people come around

 

And surely you don't dislike Steve Jobs *more* than Steve Balmer? Please?

 

Take care,

 

Paul

come on you know you wouldn't be allowed to get away with that intercourse comment.

 

Anyway, i'm not a die hard apple fanboy, but i would be prepared to put down a fair amount of money for an original boxed Apple Newton. A product ahead of it's time.

 

....I mean it can't be any worse than PDA's running pocket pc or Windows mobile or whatever MS call they're joke of a PDA OS. And i'm sure there are one or two newton enthusiast/owners clubs around for software and tweaks.

err, konqueror supports webdav - in a window.

Konqueror is installed by default on the eeepc.

 

probably too complicated for mac users

 

Yeah, OK, but as a Linux user for many years I couldn't find a way to use it. The default GUI on the Eee PC is not very configurable. Goodness, I remember using LaTeX and all manner of similar command-line tools. I was quite a Linux geek in my time - so I resent the aspersion that Konqueror is too difficult for me. I used KDE and Gnome and several other window managers. Funnily enough my favourite was always AfterStep . . .

 

As I said before, I abandoned Linux because I didn't have time for all the tinkering and configuring. I wanted to get some work done. I also felt that computers should not be machines just for the geeks but should be accessible to the general public and usable out of the box. Geeks will always prefer an OS which allows them to receive the adulation of the majority who do not possess such advanced skills. Why would they want to lose status by adopting Mac OS X?

 

OK, I have a virgin Eee PC. What do I do next to access my remote WebDAV drive using the default tools already installed . . .

I suppose one of the daftest things I've done then is sell my old one for a tenner at a carboot? Go on, tell me how much it was really worth....

CyberNerd - please tell me how to access my WebDAV drive using Konqueror which is installed by default on the Eee PC . . . .

 

Cheers.
