Andrea Virgult Loni ha detto...

Avrei tanto da ridire su alcune scelte...
- Non esiste altro browser all'infuori di Safari.
- Spamsieve non serve a niente se usi il filtro di gmail, e si paga.
- Seashore è uno dei più orridi programmi di grafica che io abbia mai usato; mille volte meglio Gimp nudo e crudo, anche se richiede X
- Parallels? D'accordo che è fichissimo, ma Virtualbox fa quasi le stesse cose ed è gratis... e, a differenza di QEmulator, funziona. :D... Mostra tutto
- Ableton Live... pianino, prima di parlare di music studio. Chi se ne intende sa già cosa usare (a volte è Live, a volte no). Chi non se ne intende, meglio che cominci da Audacity o da programmi meno specifici.
- Duetré parolette su Onyx, Perian (FONDAMENTALE) e MacSoup potevano anche sprecarle.

Così, tanto per fare sempre lo stronzo che s'impiccia. :D

alexeidos ha detto...

bah, ti dirò, fra questi programmi secondo me ce ne sono pochi davvero utili. ma sai com'è, questi post del cazzo servono tanto per l'indicizzazione sui motori. ci sono tante belle paroline in inglese, immagini e link. praticamente fa tutto lui.

poi, per safari ne riparlerei.. ci sono ancora diversi script e plugin che danno problemi che invece con mozilla per mac non ho.

gimp? a questo punto photoshop...... Mostra tutto

con QE mi trovo abbastanza bene tutto sommato, ma proverò comunque virtualbox

però mi sarei aspettato una bella risposta dall'esperto! che fine ha fatto il livornese?

Lucy Van Pelt ha detto...

Ale puzzi, questa è la vera verità, anche se io ho le gambe storte.

alexeidos ha detto...
