Appleosity

I have been steadily turning to the Candy-Colored Side since the beginning of my employ. (Including spending most of today frobbing new machines, including the 24" iWhack I was not actually supposed to get, whoopsie!.) Earlier this week I made the final test: I had Boot Camp put a Windows partition on the laptop, booted into it, installed CoH, and tried it out. Seems to work fine, modulo the annoyance of trying to play with a trackpad. (Ah. Mem.: try TeamSpeak.)

So the kool-aid is delicious and fruity, and it seems likely that the next time we need to upgrade something (which is probably soon), I will be switching to a Mac. Jury is still out between iMac and a Mac Pro. Obviously the Mac Pro would be much sweeter, but iMacs are considerably cheaper, and if they are butch enough to do what I need, I may restrain my greed as it is likely to be a generally expensive year.

Dunno about automounter. It might be interesting to try to track down the problem. Maybe lock jdev in a room with your computer and a bottle of Mountain Dew ... ?

volfs/Carbon zaniness, maybe? Like, maybe it doesn't activate the mount point if the inode gets magic-chicken-summoned by the FSSpec emulation instead of being namei'ed normally?
