Ever wondered how daunting it is to move from a PC to a Mac?

Well try putting yourselves in my shoes! Having been a PC user all my life and having never used a Mac at all I was faced with getting to grips with a Mac to use for programming etc.

The Mac I got was a 24″ iMac 3.06 GHz, pretty impressive piece of kit when you look at it but would it live up to the hype I have read since I faced the prospect of using one?

Having used the Mac for a couple of days now the short answer is Yes it does. Its impressive to use as well as look at. Yes there are differences between a Mac and a PC I wont deny that but having used the mac for a few days they are changes I am willing to make.

Having set the mac up I was faced with the problem of how to navigate through programs and how to install new programs. This is a small learning curve and I got to grips pretty quickly. Anything you can do on a PC you can do on a Mac its just a case of knowing how to do it.

Thinking about moving from a PC to a Mac? Dont hesitate, jump in, its worth it. The speed of the Mac alone is enough to convince you, thats without the added bonus of the array of features it bolsters.

My only bad experience with the Mac so far is the mouse, hardly a problem here as I simply plugged in my old mouse and problem solved.

Mac all the way!

NEW FEATURES

Today we have added some new features to Street Crime,

Testament

This new feature allows you to designate a character to receive some of your items which before you would not have received back when you die.
By setting a player as your testament this player will receive 40% of the money in your bank and all of your vehicles in your garage.

You can only set a Testament if your a paying member and this can be done at your Personal page under the ‘Main’ tab.

Perhaps this will ease the pain of having your brains blown out?

Player Ideas

As part of our continued dedication to you as the players we have decided to make a full idea making and voting area. This can be found under the communications tab at the bottom. Or here Ideas page.

Here you can view and create ideas for street crime. You can also now vote for ideas that you really like, if a idea is feasible and is supported by a large amount of players it will be implemented.

You will only be able to create a new idea once every 24 hours and vote once on each idea.

We have also made some other small tweaks around the place.

Thanks
