What does this mean? Windows is more of a closed system then mac is. At least Mac OS X is based on open standards.

So are macs. If you go to
www.xlr8yourmac.com you can get info on almost any custom configuration. In Mac OS X and WinXP you shouldn't have to install any drivers, almost all the drivers are found on the system.

Ugghh Toshiba are one of the worst labtop manufactures out there. I have had a lot of problems fixing them for people. Personally I think IBM makes the best labtops.
I have to agree that this thread is getting off-topic.
BTW: That is a nice set of equipment there.
