Why Stand Alone Movie Programs?

[Svpernova09]

I don't know about you guys, but even if this feature was available on the PC version, would we use it?

Do any of you use ANY of the tools that Blizzard has added to their game ripped off from other third-party software?

Threat meter?
Voice communication?
Arena Frames?
Gear Manager?

Yes i use the Gear Manager a lot since it stores settings server side, and most addons I tried, only stored settings locally and since I'm logging in from different systems, always having to reset gear sets was incredibly annoying. Arena frames? No I don't, but I don't arena a lot. Voice Communication? No because it's always been insanely low volume and impossible to hear people. Threat meter? No, I much prefer Omen.

So I may not use everything they give us, but once in a while they slam dunk something (IMO Gear Manager)

Threat meter?

Yes.

Voice communication?

No, I don't use any voice communication, it disturbs my immersion.

Arena Frames?

Yes.

Gear Manager?

Yes.

Macs are amazing computers and now that the prices are starting to come down to something near what I call reasonable I've been looking into getting one. The biggest issue I have though is all my computer room stuff is black or glass I just can't see a white mac in the room. So the purchase will have to be followed by a paint-job. Luckily I have a nice sprayer and booth in the garage normally used for cars it should leave a nice finish on the computer case

Or switch to a tool that you don't have to use or repair for a living to use.

ive never had an issue with my PC(s), and i built at least 7 for myself(past 8 years, not one issue i can think of).
I have nothing against macs, if they come in pink I might even get one for my girlfriend.

Exactly! Glad to see you agree.

[Marious]

Agree with you Ugh I have not been hacked yet, well at least I dont think I have And all the issues with viruses and what not, I really do not have much of an issue there. I know what I am doing for the most part, been into computers for almost 15 years now and I have not had the kind of issues people always complain about, hell even when I was running Win ME it worked fine for me. Blue screen seen it here and there, but not much of a problem, game performance issues only when I had like 1G of ram and a not so good PC at the time, oh also when my video card and Mobo died I had issues then.

I made the switch to Mac some two years ago, and all I can say is that I cannot see any reason why I would ever go back, now that Mac are perfectly capable gaming machine (since the introduction of Intel Macs).

The amazing design of the machines is a good thing, but it is balanced by the price premium. What really makes the deal for me is Mac OS. Noone can understand until the tried it (an I'm not talking about 5 minutes at the Apple store)/

(A bit of background : started using computers and coding in 1981, have been putting together my own PCs since 1995. Gamer, obviously, and using computers for a living)

Nothing against Macs accept that they are owned by Apple.

To all the Mac lovers out there, keep in mind that Apple would have been gone long ago if it had not been for Bill Gates infusing the company with a crap ton of money to keep them going. This was to keep Microsoft from getting branded as a monopoly.

Cheaper to fund to the competition than to deal with the Gov.

$150M is not a "crap ton of money" for companies the size of msft or aapl - funny thing is if they'd kept their stake instead of selling it in 2003 it'd be worth about 7.2B today - that's a nice chunk of change even for those guys

ps: I have both macs and pcs - I use the pcs for gaming - the macs for everything else - iphoto alone is worth the price premium - the new imac display is just georgous - as is the magic mouse and wireless brushed aluminum keyboard.

haha this is like one of those stupid mac commercials.
