You can always use alternative drivers like Steermouse or use another software to configure keys like BetterTouchTool. The only problem I have with OSX and mouse support is that there is lag with the mouse cursor unless you use Steermouse or some other implementation that fixes this.

Nah, it's still hopelessly slow on OSX too. On Windows, it takes about 3x more time to scan my music library compared to Foobar2k or Winamp. Same deal on OSX compared to any 3rd party music manager.

Personally I'd be more than happy if this led to Adobe's demise. Creative Suite is a bloated mess that is completely non native, buggy and aside from Photoshop has terrible tools (for example even the basic tools in Illustrator are awful compared to something like Sketch).

These are all so completely hideous and bulky looking. I understand they serve a purpose if you need to have your phone in rough conditions but otherwise I'd just get a cheap bumper in a nice color and be done with it.

The Hackintosh bootloaders aren't meant to be used with real Macs. It's a wonder it even works. In my experience when you get everything working, a Hackintosh is just as stable as a real Mac. The most problematic thing seems to be getting sleep to work.

Actually Hackintoshes have gotten a lot easier to do. With new Gigabyte boards, it's ridiculously easy to get one up and running. The main thing that breaks when updating is the onboard sound as it relies on a patched kernel extension (driver) but that's just one more reboot (update - reboot - fix kext - reboot) to…

Backward support all the way to stone age is not a good thing. WinXP is basically that at the moment. I like that Apple does set some demands on what can run their latest OS. Considering OS upgrades are rather cheap (though not exactly well distributed if you have to jump from 10.5 to newer ones) it's easy to keep any…

I use both. As far as user interface goes, OSX is lightyears ahead of Windows. It's intuitive, nearly all programs look like native software and overall the whole OS works nicely in general. It has its own set of quirks but overall I feel that right now it's the only truly good desktop OS.

You pretty much have to go all the way to 30" 2560x1600 if you want high res 16:10. At those sizes I actually find 16:9, 27" 2560x1440 res displays a bit more comfortable.

By the time a current card no longer runs games well, there's a new single GPU card that is about as fast as the older card in SLI just without any of the limitations and most likely supports a newer version of DirectX, has more VRAM and runs cooler/more quietly.

If you're going to EQ (personally I would do that only to correct issues in the room you're in and that can usually be done on modern receivers instead of computer software) remember to do it at the volume you usually use to listen. We hear things differently at louder and quiter volumes so that bass boost you set at…

VDSL2 30/10 Mbps. Fiber to the building, VDSL2 from there to apartments.

I haven't really noticed any image quality degradation when using PS3 Media Server/Universal Media Server. I've even tried comparing with just playing the same HD file on PC but it looked the same to me on the PS3 as well. I'd guess any degradation depends on the initial quality and especially the settings on PS3…

Agreed. Right now I'm a subscriber to Netflix and Spotify. Both offer streaming on the devices I want at a very reasonable price and good quality. While Netflix still has the issue of the US version having a lot more content thanks to the (4) mentioned by czol, I feel it still a service worth paying for.

Exactly. There's still shit like different pricing for different countries even when things like VAT are excluded. Adobe is a prime example, their downloads are more expensive for Europeans (again, excluding VAT) than US folks.

In reality the main difference between the receivers here are user interface and number of inputs/outputs. Soundwise I don't think they make much of a difference meaning that they are all at a good level.

StrokeIt has to be one of my favorites. While many browsers and programs have their own extensions for mouse gestures, Stroke It does that all as a system-wide tool and in my experience much better than any browser extension.

What most likely will happen is that drivers will just crash into something as they try to figure out what Christmas lights are doing on your back.

I was also a Opera user back when it was in versions 6-9 I think. Then I moved to Chrome and Firefox because they were simply more user friendly. Opera still has fucked up downloading, archaic control panels and lots of poorly executed additional features (RSS reader, mail client).

Chrome for regular use, Firefox for development simply because I prefer Firebug to Chrome/Webkit developer tools.
