So i decided I wanted Os X 10.8 asap.. Usually i know getting anything right when it first comes out and its mac its probably going to suck a bit until the first update.
Lets go over some basics. If you arent doing an App Store install / purchase, the quoted "15 mins" it takes for it to install is RUBBISH.. BULLSHIT. a huge ass lie. As you can see from the screen shots below, it took like 30 mins JUST FOR IT TO UNPACK THE IMG file, Then it took another 30 mins while i was still logged in, then another 30 mins when i got the infamous you must reboot screen then ANOTHER 30 mins to start fully installing. So all in all EXPECT to take about 3 hours to install total, on top of the 3 hours @ 350 KBPS to download the shit. (i chose to talk to ard and watch stuff while i was downloading.)
Now i guess the big question is.. "was it worth it" Honestly, to be be bound by google chrome ALONE makes it worth it for me. I havent tried to render video in it and i have restarted since i finally got to login to os X.
The first start up is rather long and lags as mac tries to re-open whatever you had open if you didnt do a clean install (fuck that, wasnt about to move over 500 gb of stuff to capsule then format then install /ardmode ftw)
after that it loads up it does stuff and it still lags, then eventually when all the stuff gets set up like accounts and etc the lag seems to lessen.
iMessage is what originally sold me. the ability to talk to ppl while im in school on imessage Seemed like a must have.
so along with that. Safari 6 (beautifully improved) and new shiney stuff. I would have gladly paid 20$ for this. Even though i didnt / couldnt.
One of the biggest FLAWS in my opinion is the security they added. THIS IS MAC NOT WINDOWS, WE DONT NEED THAT BULLSHIT ITS JUST GETTING IN THE WAY.. STEVE JOBS WOULD BE SO PISSED.
Another flaw is how you have to update and use digital media. I dont like downloading 4.6 gb for the os as id rather have a cd od pen drive. and i dont like being FORCED to use app store each time i hit "check for software updates"
and finally the lack of FB in notification bar. They said it'd be ready in july. ITS DAMN NEAR AUGUST BITCH, WTF i dont want to ever login facebook normally again. Get on the ball bitches and give me my facebook. Thank!
Aside from my rambling and bitching. im happy. If there was a gmail plugin and a google voice plugin id delete google chrome in a heart beat.
Nuff said imo. Totally worth it. Once you go Mac, YOU DONT GO BACK. Fuck you windows and your 3 years per OS update you outdated machines with shitty i3 processors for fucking $1,300 and all the hoops windows makes you jump thru. If you can get a mac, if u can figure out how to afford one, Do yourself a favor and jump ship. I have fusion and i rarely use it... Fuck you too FFXI lol
I know.. The pictures and most of this is out of order.. It's 2 am and i got shit planned for tomorrow. so suck it!
