What the!!? with utube and safari/macs

[fringe_dweller]

anybody know whats going on with youtube and safari/macs? crashes immediatly when click on site! altho works fine with firefox still, i have read of mac users today saying same thing!
its really too much,grrrr

ahh, swapped HD's to the one loaded with OS 10.4.10 with safari 2.0.4, not the old OS 10.3.9 I was using, an low and behold works fine - srry false alarm

damn i am slack, I am still having trouble moving HD's, it's like moving home, cant seem to leave the old one behind - does anyone else hate movings HD's, puters, even if it means much better and bigger - i have improvement fatigue after nealry 10 years

easy way to solve the problem, buy a new system

we haven't got to that stage yet of moving HD's. We recently went the whole hog for a G5 which we figure will keep us going for the next 10 years! especially with the extra bays. I still use the G4 powerbook for work though.

Yes, I remember saying something like that 10 years ago. That's about five computers ago, now...

I hope to get a while out of my dual PowerPC G5 tower too Michael, i fear the the intel ones will get more favoured eventually? got a mate still using a now 6 yr old? dual 7 or 800? mhz G4 tower, still doing all he wants it to do, and well!!, runs latest OS nicely still, try doing that on a you know what
amazing little progs/add ons like flip4mac puts to bed the last of the agrievments for 'general' use for me.

I'm not totally impressed with the latest OS - I'm certainly not impressed with all the anti piracy BS (much like vista?) that i cant play ripped to HD dvd's (that I PAID for) with the OS supplied 'dvd player' in video_TS files anymore coz applle are playing footsies with the major movie companies, and capitulated so as to have their content available on itunes/iphones ggrrrr sell out swine!
and i dont think the VLC player and other alternatives are in the same quality as 'DVD player' I like to have concerts and instructional geetar dvd's and loop and incrementally replay a very short phrase ect. VLC doesnt do as good a job with that sort of use IMO
