So I'm picking up this beauty monday... http://imrichnowthanks.com/hdretro.jpg I looked around the web for info on the 'HD Retro' model and couldn't find much. Has anyone ever heard of it? Lacks the SE I assume?

That may be labelling / sticker from when Emu did the $895 HD Retrofit deal..... I dunno, I wasn't buying back then. But if it doesn't have SE, that is an easy fix.

I clicked on this link and was confronted with a new window and a pop about Virus repair and the only option was to click OK. I killed the process. Anyone else get that? FYI ________________________________

Not here. Check your IE add-ons. A rerouter might have been installed. Go to internet options, manage-addons, click on currently loaded add-ons and disable anything that looks strange. Especially the ones that say Unverified or have single letter names/numbers. Close and restart your IE. If that does not fix it, download http://www.superantispyware.com and check out your system. --- On Sat, 9/12/09, Patrick R <designlord@yahoo.com> wrote:

You mean Unix, don't ya Ted? ;) Sorry for the false alarm. I must have inadvertently clicked on an advert on Yahoo's stupid ad bar. I never get viruses, but I also never click on unknown links, and posting a non-descriptive link in a forum were people trust each other is a good Trojan horse... so I panicked. ________________________________

I work on most Unix variants at work. HP-UX, IBM AIX, Solaris, and RHEL/SLES To the enterprise IT, they don't consider it the same as "true" unix, although it is funny since Mac OS X is POSIX compliant, while some of the above are not fully POSIX compliant.

Yea, fancy that, the Mac being more UnixPC than a UnixPC! I don't think it is "true" Unix because it has good docs! hehe Bouncing back and forth between Windows and OS X development, one thing has become crystal clear. The documentation Apple creates is, generally, much more well structured beyond anything from MS and the *nix community. I liken the current OSs to a line of cars: Ford Tempo *nix Ed., Ford Focus Window Ed. and Ford GT OSX ed. All go well faster than the avg. driver needs, but fit & finish and support is increasingly better, along with cost. This is one reason I think MS has been so successful, it is a nice balance of time investment vs finacial investment. I don't think Apple will introduce a $1000 Macmini with great graphics, but soon enough the iphone will be that anyway. I fear for everyone else at that point.

although it is funny since Mac OS X is POSIX compliant, while some of the
