    Yes they are and no they don't. Love the Mac! The kids were right and I should have switched years before I did. I got this one about six years ago. The only issue was a lack of RAM during one of the last updates. I don't miss the AV and Malware scans.

    Me either took a little nap between the 1st and 1/2 of the 3rd , but was wide awake for all the fire works at the end , shame that one team had to lose that would have been a Great Championship match up .

    Same here, and wide awake for the end is an understatement.

    Effin cold this morning. It's a balmy 8 degrees with a brisk west wind. Good thing Lake Michigan is warming up that below zero chit west of here.

    The furnace needs food. May go grab a bag of 'sets from the back of the stash pile.

    PICTURES!!!!! Sounds amazing. I once rebuilt an Ahrens-Fox engine from the 20's. 200 cubic inches per cylinder. Still, that's tiny compared to your monster.

    Ask Pete, as he is a Mac person. There was exactly one Apple device that resided here, it was an iPod which was given to the Boss when her SIL got an iPad. That iPod is now at our daughter's place.

    Well I suspect I should go out and clean up yesterday's snow before tomorrow's snow covers it up. :headbang:

    +1, also suspect a SSD would kick up the score. I read that as 'maniacal' .. :rofl: :lol:

    Too much traveling, not enough drinking. Plenty of shoveling though. :picard:

    No rest for the weary here, heading out again. Happy Sunday All ! :yes:

    You're a good man for doing that Ambient.
    You should still keep the Horns to help hold up the Halo, though. :D

    Hmmmm

    SALT :bug:

    Sit around and watch your rig disintegrate with that stuff.

    Out here our "DEQ" (Dept of Environmental Quality) will not allow salt due to the damage it does to streams and such.

    Really glad we don't have to buy a new rig every few years.

    It's not at all uncommon to see rigs from the 50's and 60's still tooling down the road fully intact.

    As was mentioned above, in general, they don't. I've used Macs since the early days (mid-late 80's), and there has really never been much of an issue.

    That said, since they are becoming much more mainstream, the threat does exist. I have not had any kind of "attack", but I did install a virus/spyware/adware/Trojans program JIC. The best free version I found is called "Avira". The free version is here:
