  1. Come on jump off the cliff with us. Everybody's doing it. :D

    No aside from the free 1 Gig of email space it's only a gimic, unless your like me and actually have 500mb + of emails. In fairness they do provide very good service and I like it so far.

    But 1 Gig of space is total over kill for the average user.

  2. OK since I'm a heavy p2p user I guess I should put in my two cents.

    (reaches into pocket and pulls out two pennies) (inserts the pennies into the post machine)

    The reason I use p2p is because I'm on a Mac. I do a huge amount of multimedia, graphic arts, video for commercials, ect. ect. ect. and it has to be stable. Now before this becomes a little commercial of it's own I have absolutely no problem with PCs and being on a Mac is where my problem lies. I'm also a heavy gamer. No I don't have the money to build a Gaming PC I have a heavily modified Mac that uses all my money. Yes I need that big of a system. Most of the best games are on Mac now but the prices are still larger than the PC version and until so I refuse to buy a game at $50 when it's already been out for a while and it's down to $30 for PC. All my programs like Photoshop and Director I pay for. But I refuse to support the game industry when they gouge me like that. Yes I have made hybrids of games and programs. It's not that darn hard. It doesn't take two years to do. They're just gouging the Mac Community.

    As far as safety goes it totally depends on where you go and how you do it. It can be as safe as regular internet downloading. Going to the largest and most popular p2p places aren't always the best.

    Sorry for the rant guys, it just burns my up. (makes his burning up face) :angry:

  3. I've been floating arround the net as macmarauder since I was 8. I can't remember why I started using this name but it probably has something to do with a period in my life where I was hell bent on destroying Microsoft. But that's old news. *sigh* <_<
