    This is long ****ing overdue. Surfing Korean websites with a Mac is a nightmare. Never thought I would say this, but go Vista!

    Does this mean Cyworld will finally display correctly in Mozilla? I’ve been dying to sort through a few billion 셀카 pics.

    I’d be happy if they instead stopped discriminating against foreign residents and accepted their ‘alien registration number’.

    my guess is that it will take the american-owned banks here to trash that nasty active-x crap. after ten years of problems, it’s pretty obvious that the korean side isn’t gonna do anything.

    It’s about time.

    But considering that it will take a few years for all Korean web sites to change, the laptop I’ll be buying this time will be a Wintel machine. But after my son breaks in two to three years time, the next one will most probably be a Mac.

    Why not buy a Mac and run Windows on it, either as a dual-boot solution, or (my preference) by virtualization software such as Parallels Workstation or VMWare Fusion?
