Finally, an article that makes sense and addresses the nonsensical complaints from freaking idiots that “Snow Leopard isn’t 64-bit because it doesn’t run the 64-bit kernel”. http://www.macworld.com/article/142379/2009/08/snow_leopard_64_bit.html?lsrc=rss_weblogs_macuser

Posted July 30th, 2009 by Ryu at 1:28 am in Institutions and Jackassery. 3 CommentsThis is a tale of something good going horribly bad when it falls into the wrong hands. I was probably the first person who really injected life into the establishment known as MacNUS, despite not being the founder. Lots of events, lots of ideas for improvement, lots of pushing the establishment and improving the status […]
