I lost track of Quake 3 after seeing the prerelease teases at E3 about 3 years ago. I guess it finally came out?

Anyway, looks like maybe we don't need stylish, reliable boxes to run OSX anymore. Some hackers have OSX running on Intel/AMD cpus now:

OSX is a good system, imho. I'd be curious to know what else you think about it Tech, as I respect your computer opinions. In the month or so that I've been dorking around with it, it does everything I've needed, runs smoothly, and hasn't given me any problems. I've always been a PC-guy, but my intro to OSX has been pretty positive.

I've had, I think, three crashes in 4/5 years with OSX. That's pretty good stability for a system I almost never shut down.

There are a couple of things I'd still like to see in OSX related to pathnames, but there are lots of people with little utilities to add to the OS to bring greater functionality. Since it's based on FreeBSD, it's a pretty well-sorted basis for an OS. And the fact there's never been a virus/trojan/worm is a huge plus. Apple has been pretty aggressive with updates when 'theoretical vulnerabilities' have been discovered.

As with any OS, wait for the X.0.3 revision before updating.

My only complaint w/ OSX is the goofy way it handles drag-n-drop of multiple files. There seems to be no order or sequence to it. Just kind of random.
