  • *edit* Nope. Preview works no matter how I mangle a jpg file's metadata.
  • You don't minimize programs, you minimize windows within the program. The palettes etc. stay there just as they should. They will go away when you switch to another program or hide the program, and come back when you return to the program.

  • Quote: Originally posted by bunge It may seem excessive, but they're an illegal monopoly. They should have to get approval for the features they want to add to IE before they add them. Once a standard, anyone can use it. It's not limiting anyt…
  • If you're waiting to buy until "sometime" in 2004, I'm afraid any advice you receive today will probably be irrelevant. That said, if you are going to go G5, I'd pick up the low or medium end next generation (maybe to be released in January). If you…
  • Quote: Originally posted by bunge I don't think that's the point. I think the DOJ should for MS to make their browser 100% standards compliant and nothing more. I don't know if I agree. Well first, the original post was about making certain w…
  • Absolutely not. What's next? Shall we ban windows-only software? It is not (nor should it be) considered wrong for an independent designer to create a web site that only works in Windows. Microsoft's corporate website should probably be multi-platfo…
  • My HP (2100TN) used to take forever to start printing under pre-10.3 releases of X. Sometimes it just wouldn't start and I'd be left with the print center in the dock until I killed it. So far under 10.3 printing has been reliable and immediate.
  • Maybe... Apple reported $283 million in net sales from its retail stores in 2002. And maybe they are counting iPods and Macs sold through other retail outlets as well, that might come to $383 million.
  • Quote: Originally posted by MacsRGood4U Apple: $383 million in sales last year Dell: $5.3 billion in sales last year These numbers are simply wrong. Apple did $5.7 billion in net sales last year, according to their 2002 10-K filing. I thin…
  • Quote: Originally posted by scavanger II haven't heard of reports of programs lagging on the Athlon64, however I have heard of issues with Photoshop CS on OSX and G5. The report is that Photoshop CS lags on both OSX and Windows, regardless of …
  • Quote: Originally posted by meilleure ami AI have been informed that their margins were comparable to the other computer companies during that time--Apple computers are just more expensive to manufacture. Is this information erroneous? At th…
  • Quote: Originally posted by meilleure ami And how exactly does cutting margins = increasing market share? There are a multitude of reasons Apple has such a small market share with such a superior product, but small margins do not appear to b…
  • I agree with you, but only to a point. I bought my first mac from a reseller in 1992 (yes, it was a IIvx). The store was elegant in a way that the Apple Store just can't compare to. It was obvious that this was a place where premium computers were s…
  • Nobody called it innovation. The point was made that Apple is innovative in many ways and so they are watched and copied, nobody claimed that 2000 G5s was innovative or an online store is innovative. However translucent colored electronics were sinc…
  • Drag & Drop the folder containing the images onto Graphic Converter, it will open a browser with all the image files. I use it for all my photo browsing.

  • Quote: Originally posted by scavanger Honestly I'd rather see a format that both PC and Mac's could adopt that way consumers wouldn't be afaird to purchese music. If both Mac and PC's used one codec, the whole media content in computers would be …
  • Was there an argument or even a point somewhere in that rant? I must have missed it.
