i can't believe apple got rid of Front Row for OS X Lion  :curse: :curse: :curse:

it was the most simple way to enjoy movies / music from across the room with my 24" iMac and Apple Media Remote.

I guess i'll try Plex.....anybody tried it?  :ck:

mocat, I apologize for not being more familiar with you as a poster.  I am intrigued by your Martavious Irving appreciation.  I too like him, just curious what makes you like him that much.

yes but Apple changed the way your iTunes library is accessed with iTunes 10.4, so the Front Row hack cannot access your iTunes library.
Plex is pretty awesome so far though, must admit.

Macs are great computers if you're a 10 year old girl that takes thousands of pics with friends, or an obese 12 year old dork that needs an online gaming edge.  It's a rough ridin' toy.  If a toy is what you want then get a mac.

If you need a computer for work, the web/email buy a pc and stop being a dumbass.

Hmmm... unless you're self-employed, who the eff has to buy a computer for work?    A personal computer is a toy.    LOL Is this guy serious?

First of all, bitch, pc stands for personal computer

Second of all, bitch, if all you want to do is ruboff on the web, buy a rough ridin' tablet.

Third of all, bitch, I am self-employed.

Fourth of all, bitch, I don't know why you feel the need to constantly attack me on the interwebs.  Your personal infatuation with Sugar Dick is creepy.  I only assume it's because you're a male genitals thirsty bitch who also likes sweets, that or a really bad sock.  Tortuga, is that you?

In any event, your song Betty Davis Eyes is excellent.
