Flip4Mac Flipping my Mac 360

If you’re wondering what is Flip4Mac, it’s some sort of codec for QuickTime to view AVI, WMV, MPEG, MPG and etc that view in Windows OS, if you’re a Mac user and you don’t know what is it, you’re probably came from venus, welcome to earth.

Recently with the latest update 2.2.0.49 (One quick question: Why the fuck does it need so many “dot” for a version?), Flip4Mac need to load instead of opening the video in a blink. Somehow, it’s not only slow, it slow down my whole fucking system! It even cause Finder to crash, not to mention other applications were affected, some go crash off, some goes slow down I wonder anything happen on my machine or some plugins cause my machine to run in this manner…

Ubuntu On Transparency

After the release of Ubuntu 7.10, Ubuntu team announcing their next release Ubuntu 8.04, which I was quite surprise with the interface…

Everyone is jumping into this “transparency” boat now, Microsoft was first to release this full transparency interface, while Apple released some transparency interface years ago, and now the Mac OSX Leopard has more improvement on the transparency.

So, it’s the “transparency” age now? Or this is a need of consumer, so everyone should follow up and built something transparency? I’m still thinking about the graphic support though, Windows Vista require a high-end graphic card to support their interface, while Mac OSX Leopard need a mid-end graphic card, and how about Ubuntu? They was targeting those who are using a low-end machine… Does those transparency really low-ended? Let’s prepare Technomarine watch and wait until Ubuntu release the newer version.

Disk Utility

So you still think Mac OSX really that powerful? I’ve had this problem most of the time, the disk verifying! It’s just the same that Mac need some healthcare cart as well.

Restart needed, which I hate the most, I don’t know why, this Macbook has been serving me nicely for the pass one year, and I’m deeply in love with it now, so far, I did 4 times disk verifying. Compare to Windows PC I might need 3 times reformatting
