R James Trapp Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 It cost $200 for a new hard drive and windows 7. So when this laptop dies again I am springing for a Mac. But for now I really like my Toshiba satilite pro. The problem I had with trend micro is I'm not a computer guy and I really don't know which programs I should slow to load and run. I know I'm not alone and there's a million other computer illiterate people that are in the same boat as me. For now I need a protection that can decide for me until I can get computer literate and know which to do. I won't buy trend micro agaian and kapersky is the one I think ill buy. For now I'm going to try the windows essential though. For free! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i have my MBP 17in i got in jan. Thing is a badass. If you do any sort of audio or visual stuff, go mac man. i LOVE my mac. I put windows on a 100G partition of my HD so i can run things like winISD, BBP6, torres, etc. Things that simply ONLY run on windows, and i can still access all my movies and songs that are on the mac partition. So go mac and you'll never go back. Quote woman..cant live with em...cant shoot em...guess were all fucked You might be a Redneck if you use your leftover gutters for a speaker box port...

R James Trapp Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Ya I've been using our ipad 2 and it is nice to not have to worry about virus. But there's somethings the Mac won't do. Atleast the ipad won't. It won't run flash player so some videos aren't available. I just got the Toshiba back today and haven't fired it up yet so the first thing I have to do is register win 7 and then get the virus program. This Toshiba is the fusion edition and it was my first computer I ever bought in 2008. I'm keeping the kids and wife off of it. They can use the ipad. When this computer dies I'm going with the Mac for sure.does the Mac support flash player and all the stuff the ipad won't? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbake223 Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) Microsoft Security Essentials and Malwarebytes get the job done for free if you set them to do scheduled scans daily.Kaspersky is the way to go if you want Internet Security and stronger real-time protection. exactly what i said Avast is not the best people would bring in shit while using it all the time too. But people are also stupid and click advertisements and put in their information For whoever said Norton doesnt slow your computer down ur a moron, upload something different and compare. I dont care if you have 12 gigs of ram you are wasting performance.

R James Trapp Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Its kind of funny that I troubleshoot and repair trucks with up to 6 computers controlling engines, transmissions, antilock brakes, gauges, lights, and bodies. Automated trash trucks but I can't fix or troubleshoot the computer I use for that job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R James Trapp Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 If you want a antivirus that doesn't have setable permissions, than thats really dumb, because your going to end up here again. Most Antivirus' actually only ask once per each program than never again. Dude above me, Norton sucks, your more likely to get something undetected with them than you would with free AVG. The reason for me wanting one that doesn't ask is I don't know which are ok and which are potential threats. It's like when I was loading security essentials it asked me at the bottom if I wanted to run the program or download it, well crap that's that's confusing. Why not ask if you want to download and run it? Why put it in two boxes? Just some common sense would be nice with these computer engineers. Engineers, I always say after working on the garbage trucks" an engineer would jump over 5 naked women to screw one mechanic" cause they don't think of the common sense crap like , someone is going to have to figure out how to fix what they just designed and engineered. Sorry, off topic. F***kin engineers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
