Riding on Mac

Since 3 days I'm riding on my new MacBook Pro and I'm really happy with it. The workflow is just great and of course the performance is purely awesome compared to my old Fujitso Siemens Notebook.

At first I was not really sure to throw the big amount of money away for it, but now I can say that it really pays off! Working is just fun again, so watch out for my new galleries I'll upload soon...hehe

til then and have a good one,
lorenz aka creativevangelist

great! good for you. i guess it must feel good to be trendy, hun?

haha, it's not that I wanna feel "trendy" as you said, it was more a decision based on facts and possibilities that mac can give to me but windows can't...

but if you think mac owners are trendy then think so...

haahahah, funny guys...funny guys...nope, that wasn't my intention either...haha

creativevangelist Posted by: creativevangelist 742 days ago

sweet. I been thinking of going mobile also. did you get the 17"?

akrok Posted by: akrok 742 days ago

nope, I got me the 15' one...I'm not so a fan of those big notebooks like 17', but that's just my flavor...

ps: thx for adding me akrok!

creativevangelist Posted by: creativevangelist 741 days ago

well you can always hook it up to a nice 19" monitor.

Mankind seems to be split between those people who use and understand WHY they use Macs (hint: not primarily for the "trendiness"), and those who'd rather spend their time, money and effort worrying about viruses :D

runs ;-)

what about flash work? do you get the normal processor speed to get standard results?

alexppllmchs Posted by: alexppllmchs 721 days ago

i don't do flash stuff (cos flash sux hehe), but i've heard the new intel-based Macs have pretty much done away with the "hurr hurr flash on mac is sloooow" argument.

slater Posted by: slater 721 days ago

jup, that's right, I can say. In school we've such old IMacs, which are super slow...

but with the new ones, viewing is like on any other system, quite fast! But authoring in Flash is sometimes kinda slow, but as you know Adobe Studio isn't already on Universal Binaries, so I'll wait and see...

Slater: by the way, thx for adding! and I think flash is a really great tool, if it's done right ;-)

creativevangelist Posted by: creativevangelist 721 days ago

i think flash can be used in interesting ways (think yugop and similar stuff). Me, I've had too many run-ins with stupid managers asking me to "lighten up" some page with a bit of flash, "make it interactive!!" and all that nonsense. Thus, I avoid flash like the plague ;)

slater Posted by: slater 720 days ago

mhm, yeah...unfortunately the whole "lighten up this, and make this jump out there, and oh don't forget to make this spinning all the time" -thinking is in the heads of the most average webusers.

I can understand that such clients etc. can make us go crazy, but people should know that flash isn't purely about turning websites into freakshows.
