  • The answer is yes to the smart folders question, by creating a 'smart mailbox' that excludes all the mailing lists you are subscribed to. And the answer to the 2nd question is, there is no way to make gmail delete messages via pop3 even if you ha…
  • If you want to do them all at once you can type: sudo periodic daily weekly monthly Or you can type just sudo periodic daily for example. The launchd daemon from what I read is smart enough to run the missed tasks next time it is booted up …
  • I will answer my own question: From a post elsewhere on the web: "That's why there is a slight delay when Flip4Mac plays a .wmv, it loads the entire movie first before it plays so you get smooth, drop-out free playback. The other benefit is that…
  • I'm not entirely convinced.. people rave about Cleartype on XP, but I always turned it off and used nothing at all. The other thing is, when you have a working bytecode interpreter, letters are spaced properly apart. But when it's turned off, you…
  • Basilisk II can do OS 8, but I don't see any point because my target is 680x0 machines.. of which the only OS 8 version that was supported was 8.1, and nothing after. Besides one of the softwares I'm interested in first came out for System 6 on 6800…
  • So yeah, I was just playing for the longest while with it. If anyone needs help let me know.. You will need a rom.. search for quadra650.rom, there are others but hard to find (I was looking for a 24 bit rom to try 6.08 with), the OS images can com…
  • Not a problem at any time to ask questions. Technologically, they're pretty interesting devices composed of both hardware and software. I was actually born deaf so I've never had normal hearing. But they work wonderfully well if your brain has e…
  • Well not so much glare, since a tv with shiny glass glares much worse. Just really, the contrast levels of the blacks.. like someone's black jacket, or black hair, etc. All the detail often disappears and you just see a black region rather than t…
  • A feature I use often, is the ability to select individual files in a torrent, and skip all the rest. Transmission can't do this. Can only get the entire torrent, that's why I have to use Azureus on the Mac.
  • In my email it says: "The Intel(R) Dual-Frequency Graphics Technology feature was disabled in the 945GM drivers as a workaround for a chipset hardware issue. This is documented in 945GM chipset hardware specification update: http://www.intel.co…
  • The ram in the MacBook doesn't work in dual channel mode. I have an email from Intel to confirm this. So you will do fine with a single stick if you want. It's in the chip errata, that they shut it off at higher bus speeds due to errors or something…
  • Well, the 'real' memory used isn't too bad, even if the 'virtual' size is large. The real problem is when you're watching activity monitor and see both 'free ram' disappearing, and 'inactive ram' climbing.. what ends up happening is once the free…
  • You may also wish to follow the instructions on the same page that you got Azureus from and update your installed copy with the latest 3.2r7 SWT libraries from Eclipse, and the latest Azureus beta from their CVS page. Doing so will fix a minor graph…
  • I tested, and Endymion was right. Airtrafficcontrol (sp) was the widget responsible.. removing it discontinues that behavior.. I'll let the author know it conflicts. So that takes care of that problem.. and my custom Az b48 using the latest S…
  • Hmm I was trying Mac The Ripper out for the first time on a MacBook, the universal binary 3.0 r13 'beta' or whatever it is. Other than the fact this program can and does crash, I noticed something this morning and I don't know whether it is norma…
  • Firefox didn't work. I found a thread of people complaining about ghosting/disappearing text on scrolling.. Same thing to me, but I notice the colour shift while it's happening. http://discussions.apple.com/thread....419025#2419025 I'm asto…
  • Each MacBook sold, will contain among it's materials, a glossy 8x10 photo of Steve Jobs, suitable for framing and hanging next to the picture of Frank Sinatra and the Pope on the wall.
  • The new MacBooks will have a new style casing where you can snap in a panel behind the LCD to change the colour, or have a pattern or what-not. Whatever your hipster mood fancies. The panels will be $25 each.
