Sounds like you're using an unsupported internet browser. TPM is tested to work in Internet Explorer 6, Internet Explorer 7, FireFox, Safari and Opera. I recommended you get FireFox. http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

Should work regardless of your browser setup, are you sure it's just not downloading and you haven't realized? Anyways I've added an option to the player to view the raw mp3 file, which you can then right click and save target as, etc.

Lmao. Thankyou Tommy. Ruhaddict, there is a big button that says "Download ________", so it's actually easier than downloading from Merlin Media. TPM, going further, so you don't have to.

Firstly, when have school computers ever been great. Secondly, their networked, so like ahem, the Windows machines at our school, they'll be slow. If they're running that bad then it's your networks admin fault. Not to mention the school probably opted for the low end models, which Apple don't even sell direct to the consumer, because of how low end they are. Either that, or they're old.

Google getting ready to release its own browser, interesting! It'll be bassed of Webkit, the rendering engine Safari uses, so it's all W3C compliant, nice stuff! Also a feature I'm most excited about Funny, since we were talking about that the other day. The browser will be released Wednesday and be called "Chrome"

Companies will apply for patents on anything they can, to give them leverage over a another company. Like Apple patented a technique of trapping objects and sealing in plastic, like on the white iMacs, which Microsoft uses on the Zune, so Microsoft have to pay Apple royalties.

Sound like a kid in a playground, what the hell are you on about? And if you don't see an iMac with a quad core, then you go find the MacPro with two quad cores? Steven, it's clear you've never used a Mac, with statements "you can't update your software and hardware easily". One screw comes out and I have access to my RAM and hardrive for upgrade, one push of a button runs Software update, which checks all my programs for updates.As I said, not gonna keep arguing.

You do know Apple is close with Intel, so we actually get the new processors a month before they're actually released? I'm not gonna keep on arguing, it's a fruitless task. I've already made my thoughts clear. Windows inability to manage resources, the fact it can't protect itself without 3rd party help, and the lack of fluency through out the OS is why I, personally, use a Mac. You can use your windows, really, fine by me, I didn't come into your topic and start calling windows s**t, did I?

The Microsoft platform took over because they sold it and licensed it to computer manufactures. Apple didn't want to take this approach, it wanted to ensure their OS ran how they want it to, well. It's because Apple make the software and the hardware, the two come together and work so well. No hunting for drivers if you wanna update, everything really is plug and play. Just because Microsoft has the larger share, doesn't make it superior in terms of how well it works. Microsoft has always been playing catchup with Apple, and probably always will. Apple comes up with Widgets, Microsoft releases two years later Gadgets, etc. End of the day, we've chosen to use a Mac, we like the integration of everything. So we can't use the 'full' features of the Microsoft MSN, but you know what, we have iChat which is miles better, it's just a shame it uses AIM, which is only big in the US. So you can keep your PC with your firewalls and virus software, and buggy OS, really, that's fine by me, and we'll just keep on using OSX. Thanks.

What the f**k are you on? OS X isn't designed to run on anything else other than a Mac. Doing so violates the EULA, which is why Apple is suing Pystar Computers into oblivion for making knock off Macs. As for why the Mac is a revolution, it's because it changed the way people saw personal computing. The first iMac came in bright colours, was easy to use, and could get on the internet with little setup, thus 'I' = 'internetMac'. 'I' also represents it's you, as it stores the things you love, it made digital photography easy for everyone, editing a video. This is all stuff Windows tried to replicate later on with 'Movie Maker', and 'Photo Studio' or what ever it was. Go back further to the first ever Macintosh, it was the first ever computer to have a MOUSE, a graphical user interface, fonts, display images, the jpeg, the mov file, it was there first.

...and since OS X only runs on a Mac, it makes sense to ask who has a Mac. A Mac is more, it's great design, everything built in (Camera, Mic, IR, Bluetooth, Wifi, etc).The site I was testing was a template for the up-comming Chessington Mania, which passed validation, which means it was an IE fault for it crashing. Now stop trolling this topic and make your own.

Urr no, I gave you a very loose example. In reality it'll be doing a whole lot more, monitoring activity on that application, checking if it's performing tasks, how long it's been idle, do other applications require those resources, etc etc. And good for you, but for me just last night when I was testing a site in IE7 it crashed, then RCT3 hung, I couldn't kill the process cos the CPU was at full whack and so couldn't open the task manager, leading me to a hard restart. Great that Windows works for you, it's fab you love it, but we love Macs. This topic was asking who had a Mac, not who had a Windows.

I'm afraid it isn't bollocks, take it from someone who is doing computer science. UNIX and Windows are very very very very different under the hood. Think of it this way. UNIX makes an allocated space for each application, its own environment for that application. It says to the application, ok you can have X amount of CPU, RAM, etc. If the application goes crazy, it can't take any more resources than what UNIX has allocated to it, it can only have more resources if the application asks for it, and since it's frozen, it can't ask for more, so the program quits.Winodws however, it's a free reign, the application can take as much resources as it likes, so when it does crazy, your CPU shoots up, causing the entire system to hang. Windows is very poor handling resources. It's not being a MacBumBoy, it's the basic facts, and fundamental differences between UNIX and Windows.

Windows and OS X handle applications very differently. If a program hangs on Windows, it's likely that it'll affect the whole system, as in it'll freeze stuck on that program, the task bar comes unresponsive, the window turns white, yadayada it's pretty nasty. If a program crashes on OS X, only that program is affected, the system is still responsive and tasks can be carried on. This is because it's built on UNIX which allows multi-thread processes (windows can to an extent, but isn't graceful at all), and some other wicked s**t. So don't call me a dip s**t.
