I really think that is quite stupid for a slew of reasons.
1. How many quality Windows laptop can you do anymore customizations than an Apple laptop?
2. As for Desktops, you can update a Mac desktop just as easily as a PC. I do agree that it sucks the big one that they don't have a mid level headless Mac. It really is ridiculous, but I can understand why they do it from a business perspective. I just don't like it.

Can you update a graphics card on a Mac now? A CPU?

Yeah. I got a little Windows Home Server. It does it every night. Best Microsoft product I've ever bought. I'll be back up and running in 20 minutes as soon as I find a hard drive to slap in there.

Yeah, you always could. Since it wasn't an x86 architecture it was just more expensive.Originally posted by Scott CampbellOriginally posted by PartialI really think that is quite stupid for a slew of reasons.

Now, you can use basically any card and flash it is my understanding instead of getting the EFI mac based card.
Cannot wait until PC ditch legacy bios and get up to date with the current rockstar Mac.

I thought the manufacturers were the only ones who could (reliably) flash and design a graphics card to work on a mac? I still see new mac specific cards being put out and if anyone could flash a card why would that be the case?Originally posted by PartialIn what regard?Originally posted by Freak OutI don't think that's the case bro.Originally posted by PartialYeah, you always could.
