    odd display on My Mac

    I have no idea what may be causing the odd display of such items as these blocks of color on my mac <br /><br /><br />They are intermittent, and "dissappear" when I make any "mouse gestures"

    Wierd. I don't know anything about Macs, though, so I can't help you out.

    Buy a PC .

    People say "get Firefox" because for some reason, they hate Microsoft so much.

    People, if MS were so bad, why does it have such a huge market share ?. If they make a crappy product, then it won't sell.

    Apples are great for many things (graphic & such). PC's are good for other things.

    After the Reboot the problems have disappeared.

    I'd not shut down the machine for nearly a month and I'm told that rebooting occasionally is contrary to Mac Myth a good thing

    Thank you.

    Yeah. First step to solving anything is a restart. I've never seen a Mac do that though, and I've used both platforms for many years.

    Susanna, get Firefox! ;)

    Yeah, it looked like a memory corruption type thing. It's been 10-15 years since I last dealt with a Mac, but it did seem they were more prone to data corruption than PC's. (I.E. non-repeatable errors)
