Reason I will not dump my Palm V to use iPod contacts: no ability to add on the go. Whenever I add a contact to my Palm, 90% of the time I am away from my computer. The iPod can't do voice notes (yet...?) so short of whipping out a pencil and pape…

[quote] Apple's implementation appears to be a little too slick to be a hack - it's using vCards rather than tiny MP3s with phone numbers for titles. I understand what you're saying in terms of a hack as a technical hack and agree. However, I t…

[quote] I may hold out untill 'iPod 2' (With 10gb HD, Extra s/w, Equaliser?) I'm pretty sure that the current iPod could gain extra s/w and eq's without need for buying a new one - upgradable firmware, etc. As for the 10gig HD...that could be a…

Short Answer - "Yes" Medium-Length Answer - PPPoE is integrated right into the Network control for OSX. I currently use it for DSL via Airport access. rr.

Only 15 HB and 25 MS to get into the Guinness?! Wow...they've really let their standards go downhill! rr.

After I got Moon Safari, I saved the sound right at the beginning of "Ce Matin La" as my alert sound on my mac - it was nice for a while as alerts didn't seem so bad... Unfortunately it got to the point that when I'd listen to the album, every time…

ricRocket 'cause of nicknames from my friends in high school... "rocket" was already taken - "ric" didn't seem enough, hence "ricRocket"...oh well! "bawjaws" always reminds me of Irvine Welsh's books...I start thinking in a scottish accent when I…

[quote] So in other words, nothing concrete. Oh well. HA! YES! I know a lot of people hate this theory, but here it goes (please use your imagination): Nothing is concrete, it is all an unwritten agreement amongst human beings in a society…

Cosmonut - there's no need to rely on the existence of a god for the notion of morals. How about this...a general subconscious realization among all human beings that they kinda like being alive. I wouldn't like to have my life ended. To safegu…

Re Q1: I think that I'll go with scenario 3: the majority of people dismiss the undeniable truth and continue to believe. Religion is not based on proof, but on faith...proof and facts will not sway anyone. That said, I'm an atheist so I don't …

We need more of.... - commercials featuring blowdarts We need less of... - commercials featuring the budweiser clydesdales (sp?) kneeling to NYC rr. [ 02-03-2002: Message edited by: ricRocket ]

Coke - but, especially French Coke (for the same reason that I'd rather eat a KitKat in the UK than over here) rr.

Loved the books, loved the movie. Mr. Tea, is all that you've been quoting from the Silmarallion (sp?) ? I'd heard it wasn't that good, but sounds like it might be worth a read... rr.

Perhaps this doesn't belong here as it might be a matter of taste... however, I've always found Windows's (I use NT at work) ALT-Tabbing far superior to OSX's Apple-Tabbing. I usually use it to switch back and forth betweeen two apps I'm workin…

starfleetX, you made a crucial error in volunteering these screenshots...don't you know we have an insatiable appetite for this stuff! Personally, I'm curious what's behind those new "Digital Hub" system prefs. Any chance of a getting a scre…

[quote] I reckon having things like this on the Mac OS X page is pushing a product too long before it's ready... True... however, this is a rumors board so people here usually *want* the dirt on upcoming projects. We all bemoan Apple's uptight …

Hi Roland, I know I've tried to help before (unfortunately to no avail) - but I thought I'd bump the topic up to the top and add a question of my own... If the "oE" part of PPPoE stands for "over Ethernet" - how could this apply to a wireless conn…

[quote] Chimera can't officially be called Chimera because there was already a UNIX browser called Chimera that still owns the rights to that name. Fair enough, how about Chimaera? Actually, how about *anything* more creative than "Navig…
