That was about 90% fairbeared.

this probably wont happen anytime soon. When you need to setup computers, networks, routers, etc, floppy drives are great for transferring needed material.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
The fact that it can only hold 1.44 MB... seriously... with 80 G hard drives all around the place, that's ridiculous.

As for me downloading OS X for you, just an offer I wanted to save you a few bucks. But please tell me do you legally own 100% of everything on your computer including your music?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Nope.
The "illegal" stuff on my computer is music.
30% of my music is the "illegal" kind.

I am guessing no, it's the same principal as stealing music, just with software.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Seriously though, I don't steal music. I borrow it. Honestly, I just downloaded the whole Vanessa Carlton album a couple weeks ago and I'm buying it when I get into town this weekend. That's how 70% of my mp3 list is of the "legal" variety. I borrow 'til I buy. And though this has
nothing to do with this thread, it really should be addressed. You can't say that piracy has not had any effect. The music business is in shambles. You have Sony producing CDs that you can't play on your computer at the same time that they're producing mp3 technology crap. The prices of CDs are ridiculously high because corporate fuckheads like Sony shitting their pants that they're not going to make any money (right). Then you've got companies like... hmm... Sony who are afraid to give perfectly respectable and amazing (and popular!) bands like Incubus their fair share in record sales because they're as scared as a little rabbit in a dog pound. If people really fucking cared about the godamn music scene then they could at least
try to buy
some CDs. But they're too stupid too realize that if the market fails then there won't
be any music We've already seen that the quality has gone down the drain.

It’s not like stealing an OS that is on less than 9% of the worlds PCs is going to destroy our economy.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Really, is that completely true?
Anyway, forgive my assumptions in the former post. I didn't mean to interceed on you attempting to be a fairbear to Dirty, it's just that I'm fucking sick and tired of people saying that Macs are shit just because they don't like them. It's absolutely fucking ridiculous.
