i just bought a mbp the other day even though i hate the name i love it… its so so so F***in fast ! i jus cant belive it i have played around on other apple laptops and thought the was fast but this is something else i jus cant wait till i can find a good msn messanger with video confrencing on it, for me that is a bit of a downer but every thing else is brilliant ! even the programs running on rosetta are fast if you compare them to windows.. but then again i cant wait to get windows running on this untill they release a msn with video conferecing, which i realise will be TIME! but my advice to anybody wondering weather to buy one or not is … SAVE UP AND BUY ONE RITE NOW ! NO ! INFACT GET A LOAN AND BUY 1 !!!!!

ya know you can do it from the terminal, right?

Call me lazy or perhaps efficient with my time but I really don’t want to type in an IP address for any one of the tens of machines I ssh to on a daily basis.

I just got my MBP last week. it’s fast as hell and great for just about everything. and with everyone hacking xp to run on it, soon you’ll be able to have your cake and eat it too.

for ftp, transmit is good, so is rbrowser and so is fugu. for ssh, ya know you can do it from the terminal, right?

anyway, it’s as possible to make crappy looking, seo-riffic sites on a mac as it is to make luscious, gorgeous oeuvres. its the carpenter, not the tools…. although as tools go, the MBP is damned nice.

I didn’t become sandal wearing hippy until I switch over to Windows.

i am using cyberduck as well. i wouldn’t say i hate it – for a free app it functions well enough. however, if i were somebody that had to ftp stuff often, i would definitely not be too impressed.

thanks thomas for the tip on Transmit.

Transmit for FTP. It’s great. I use CyberDuck too but Transmit is much more powerful. Get it from panic.com

Get it – it rocks!!!

It’s double speed to my PBG4 1.67 GHz (2 GB) in Rosetta (non Universal Binary mode – e.g. Adobe Creative Suite CS) and nearly 4 times faster with optimized progs!

Get it – it rocks!!!
