They won't get in the way of your studying, because there is nothing to run on them.

Get one of those new Intel Macs so you can dual boot Windows....

My roommate has a MAC , and well Uh I have software he could use for Uh Eh free But none of it runs on OS X, it seems all of the mac stuff is OS 9 and even though the pro Mac people say how unmicrosoft they are, Uh OS X is not compatable with 9 and before so everyhting must be new! Huh seems that Windows still run about everything back to 95 and even 3.1!!!!! Heck I ran a 15 year old program this past year. I thought Mac was people friendly????
Seems like they are trying to make more profit friendly???? HAHAHAHA

Still Windows rules, BTW he wants to toss the Mac into the Caribbean ocean now (after spending 2k on it and I spent 1200 on mine and it runs better!)

OS X can run OS9 stuff. Its called Mac Classic in the OS X. It loads up a copy of OS 9 on top of the OS X and it is through there that you can run everything just as before.

From Wikipedia:
" PowerPC versions of Mac OS X retain compatibility with older Mac OS applications by providing an emulation environment called Classic, which allows users to run Mac OS 9 as a process within Mac OS X, so that most older applications run as they would under the older operating system. In addition, the Redirect Page! APIs for Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X were created to permit code to be written to run natively on both systems."

i'd get one but I'm saving up for a Nintendo Wii. Wife saw the trailor for it and said "How much is that?" So I guess she won't mind if I camp out at Circuit City next month for it.
