The Daily Bits

I just tried playing around with the new VMWare Fusion and Counter Strike Source. I could not even get it to run with and without 3D acceleration disabled. Sure I could install Windows on here but that would simply be a waste of time. Why should I run CS:S with an ATi X1600 when I have a fully featured 7800GT from Nvidia? It would be better than nothing if I didn’t have my native Windows machine. This brings me to another matter…

I was quite astounded when I saw these benchmark results for a home built mac. This isn’t exactly legal by means of the EULA even if you bought a copy of Leopard. Personally I see this as an opportunity for Apple to come up with a sub-iMac mac. Something without a built in screen, but more powerful than the mini.

Make up your mind if it’s legal or not… but nothing beats the simplicity of buying a new mac
