HD Retro?

HD Retro?

2009-09-12 by andykinnetz

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.

Regards,
Ted

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.

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.

Ted

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.
