Yeah, good point OBJ. And I was just giving you grief - I, too, have been drawn into arguments on these fora (usually creation/evolution debates, which I KNOW are a waste of time). Fish

I would be very interested in hearing someone articulately explain that viewpoint - how is Gov Ryan being self-serving with this? I am not arguing that he is not - I simply don't see how it helps him, as the public in general seems to disapprove of…

Scott, you should really stop and think a bit before posting. His first mention of the percentage was NOT poorly worded - it was clear he was speaking of percentages by race. Your use of the word pardon may be in line with vernacular (altho…

My personal experience and subjective opinions: Had an iMac rev a (233) with 384 MB, which I found too slow to use in 10.1, but acceptable in 10.2. I am on a flower-power iMac right now - (500 mhz G3, 640 MB). A little sluggish, but perfectly…

Got this from the Apple boards. This works, but you MAY get the same error next time anyway... The following information is from a note I sent to an Apple Senior Tech, who later informed me that Apple has acknowledged this as a bug they expect t…

Well, I think I MAY have found the problem, but I am not sure how to get around it. I did delete the index file, but although I thought I re-indexed.....when I do a get info, it lists the status as "indexing", but the progress bar shows zero chan…

Thanks, but here is the tricky part....OS 9 finder finds the files just fine (if I reboot in 9). AND it finds them way way faster. Also, while there is a 2000 unique term limit per document in X, these documents I am looking for have probably 15…

With all due respect, Belle... doesn't: "People are amazed at the "performance improvements" in 10.1.* because they'd been using 10.0.* for months before! " suggest that there ARE good speed improvements in 10.1? I had used 10.0 for several week…

Sorry - I guess I was not clear. Let me try it this way.... I work on small islands in Mexico, which rarely show up on maps. On each island, I have multiple (30+) stations at which I do research. I know the GPS coordinates of each station, and…

[quote]Originally posted by Brad: It may not be a perfect solution, but I'm sure that Apple will let you try out the full Keynate app for as long as you want in the Apple Stores. Good point - thanks Brad. There are no stores near me, but hopef…

I have wondered the same - I would be tempted to buy it, but with no demo available to test speed, functionality (no error bars on charts? that would ruin it as an app for sciences), etc, I cannot justify the cost. I really wish they would make …

still no-go. Tried it with the latest versin, deleted the plist, and still - showed the moon at 9 in the morning (in sacramento CA), and was off by about 15 degrees F. Ah well...... Fish

Thanks - I will try that when I get back to the office tonight. Fish

I have tried 1.5.1 using weather.gov and my.aol, but in both cases I get sun/moon at wrong times of day, and temps that are way off (i.e., several hours off). Dang. I really love this app, but have turned it off for the moment. Fish

OS X on my iBook is fine....runs perfectly fast (or fast perfectly). VPC is slow as hell....I only use it for the few apps which I need on occasion which are not available on Mac (and, I should say, data analysis and graphing apps stink so far fo…

I looked at Apple's website, and there just doesn't seem to be much ported over yet for X. I would love to see Statview, Deltagraph, JMP, Systat....heck, anything with a nice user interface (i.e., not Stata) ported over to X. Anyone have any sug…

Yes, that is my problem right now as well...no decent stats/graphing apps for X, except for SPSS. I would love to see JMP, Statistica, Deltagraph, etc ported over....would allow me to run a classic-free environment. Fish

$250 for a rev a iMac is actually only okay - that is roughly what they are selling for on ebay (more, if you have added ram etc). Fish

sebat, so, are you saying that all devices that use the same amount of energy are equally efficient at heating space? Clearly this is not true - while electric heaters are all considered "100% efficient", in that there is no loss of energy, diff…

No offense, but that is kind of silly (unless you were kidding, in which case I apologize in advance...I need more coffee). First, because so many computer users live in areas that are at least sometimes warm (where by your reasoning you not only w…
