i like 9x/2k but prefer 8.1 more. unless they removed start menu from it. it looks modern, simple and works snappy. 7 feels like reforged Vista to me.

Forcing CUDA and guiding for Ubuntu 18.04 (FYI, EOS was 2023). Do they really think single Quadro GPU server can handle heavy traffics in real-time?

It is always fun to watch people debating about CJK. It would never end until the world ends. It gets more fun because now `westerners` joined the debate.

exactly! I don't understand why people hated it so much. It was snappy, clean OS. I've always thought it was better than Win7. Of course, absent of start menu was terrible choice. And I meant 8.1, not 8.

The problem was mbp retail product couldn't provide performance processor can do. I am not saying they needed to apply thermal pad to transfer heat via bottom case. They should provide proper VRM cooling solution at that time.

actually, the throttle people suffered also can interfere normal use-case not only for power hogging scenario.

I remember Intel MBP 16" suffered VRM overheat and the method that transfer heat to bottom shell case by attaching thermal pad was there too.

Sometime Apple intentionally ignores engineering problems when they want to push some product design aspects.

Explorer file browser is just disaster. I am forced to use third-party browsing app when the directory contains hundreds of media.

It has happened since win7 or older but still not fixed.
