  • I'm assuming not. So that is a glitch, actually. What a glitch! Just remember, turn your music off before switching! Then again, they should fix that problem. Active processes can still do their work, but iTunes should stop, and all movies or an…

  • Maybe, at least, we could get reordering support so everything's not in a set place. I don't mind a lot, but it would be better to be able to rearrange them.

  • Jaguar's Aqua stripes are blinding in a sense (you'd usually say this after you've been theming the interface). However, Aqua in Panther is great because of the nicer stripes. I don't hate the metal interface, but for the moment, I aquafied the two …

  • A systemwide choice would be good, but the problem with that is that every program's interface would have to be arranged so it works well under both. It wouldn't only be Apple's programs either; EVERY developer would have to design it like that, and…

  • Very good point. That's what they should've done. I'm guessing it's because they wanted it to be metal, and metal toolbars aren't seen very often. I aquafied Safari for the moment. I'm just using the "Firebird" theme I installed with Safaricon. I…

  • When I read Apple's sneak preview I didn't think Panther was worth buying. At least when you're around the web a bit more, it goes in-depth a little and gives you a reason to buy it. It's kinda like Toyota's saying..ask someone you know who drive…

  • And being able to write to an FTP server from the Finder. You have to use a FTP client to do that at this very moment. They could still exist if this was implemented. The Finder would just be the quick and dirty way of doing it.

  • I can't wait either. It seems like a big expansion to what it was before, and it'll actually be easier to get places.

  • In 10.2, the Finder has a bug of custom icons being set if the icon that you are changing is already custom. Has that been fixed? There's also some other Finder glitches in 10.2 as well. By the way..what's new about iChat? The beta's (iChat AV Pu…

  • As long as no one else has it I can wait for it. When it comes, it's all on how much it'll give ME specifically and how much it costs.
