I can’t believe we’re having the conversation we are this morning. I have a kick ass gaming machine that I’ve been using for pretty much everything, and then got the laptop so I can keep my work stuff separate. I’m currently looking at shifting everything other than games to the mac. So basically I have a pc that does nothing but run WoW, Sims and a few other games. Both of us are fairly good at troubleshooting and fixing windows crap, granted the husband is better than I am, but I’ve never been afraid to screw around with stuff. I’ve always said, what’s the worst that can happen…I’ll have to reinstall it. After the last couple days, we’re seriously talking about replacing the pcs in the house as they give out.
I’s splitting the hard drive on the pc today, a small partition for xp, (fuck vista) and just installing games on it. The rest of the machine is going to Ubuntu. I’ve got an external drive where I can store all work related stuff and shift it all between linux and the mac with no issues at all. Right now, I have it connected to the mac and when I try and move stuff to the desktop it bluescreens on me. I’m over windows at this point. It’s not going to get better. I’m the only one in the house that isn’t using linux full time, so I guess it’s time to switch stuff around
