2. BitTorrent goes Closed Source. However, the protocol doesn’t. You are well off using Azureus.

3. The Mac crack, hack and software site, http://www.macserialjunkie.com/ goes down. Hope its just temporary.

4. The iWork ‘08 released a couple of days back is already available on the torrent network
5. Visit profit42.com if you are interested to dual boot Mac OS X on your Intel PC. (I am not responsible for the legal trouble you might face as a result of this action).

Is this true? I am planning to try it out this weekend. But here is the link.

Boot Mac OS X on a normal PC - Guidelines

Windows based steps are here

If you are looking for the easiest installation steps,  here is the Linux (Ubuntu) based installation.

Video speaks for itself

This is interesting. You forgot to switch off your laptop in your home and came to office.  How do you switch it off? With the batteries draining?

If your laptop is a Mac, then just send an email.

Just watch this “comprehensive” tutorial on how to do this.  

You’ll be able to ignore most viruses
Each time the Windows community gets up in arms about the next big virus that is circulating around the globe, you can go about your business on your Mac without really worrying. However, you do have to be careful to not forward on infected files from one Windows user to another.

People will help you for no reason
Other Mac owners are usually fairly willing to help you get up and running on the Mac. This may be self-serving on their behalf, because it helps sell more Mac stuff which in turn justifies their investment in a company with less than 10% market share, but it’s still a perk.

You’ll have some “ah-ha” moments
From time to time you’ll be pleasantly surprised because the Mac will do something that you completely didn’t expect, because you’re used to how Windows would do things. For instance, you put a picture into the Address Book, and it appears automatically in iChat and then on your phone.

Keyboard shortcuts will drive you nuts
I spent years honing the craft of keyboard shortcuts on Windows, to the point where it was mostly muscle memory pressing the keys for me. On the Mac, it seems like there are two or three different ways that the various shortcuts are implemented, and it drives me nuts to this day.

You’ll regret your purchase, but you’ll get over it
You’ll have a few moments where you really, really wish you had purchased that Dell laptop for $399, and you’ll seriously consider taking the Mac back to the store, but eventually you’ll get over it and wonder what the hell you were thinking.

You’ll spend more money than with Windows
From the initial hardware purchase, to software, to more frequent OS upgrades, you’ll likely end up spending more money than someone with a Windows box – but you’ll find you often get good value for your extra money. And Apple will keep coming out with new shiny objects that you really, really want to have.

You’ll generally sell your used Mac for a decent price
Apple computers tend to retain their value better in the used marketplace. Even a two-generations-back non-Intel laptop will sell for $250-300 on craigslist.
