  • Thanks for the info. E-bay sorta worries me, given that I've never used it before and have no history -- but I'm figuring that I should be able to get about what I want for it. The everymac.com listing is 1250-1500, which seems a tad high to me, b…
  • Quote: Originally posted by iBrowse I really like the tab in expose, that's awesome. Thanks, I just discovered that, and it is awesome. As is the Command-Tab Application Switcher.
  • Quote: Originally posted by Hobbes Not exactly. Apple is advertising Font Book on its OS X page as a feature for "creative professionals". Font Book, 2nd on the list. I wasn't expecting auto-activation, or perfect performance with thousan…
  • X1 caused me all kinds of problems, big memory leaks and frequent crashes. Downgraded to 10.2.1 and things are muuuuuch more stable. Apparently the only drawback to this is Quark Auto-Activation support, but I don't use Quark, so its not a big…
  • Ok, This is the first TRULY GOOD UI suggestion / feature request that I've seen anywhere in a very long time. System-wide support for this would be a huge convenience. Of course, to really make sense of it, Apple would have to grasp gasp th…
  • My one-word reaction: "YES!" (imagine hands in the air giving the sing for touchdown).
  • Post from "Austin"... Dell Troll, humm... Don't know about the Dell part, but the Troll part, now that's self evident. Posted from 667 DV TiBook that don't feel the least bit outdated, 'cept when its trying to do stuff that shouldn't be d…
  • There are a lot of good reasons for San Francisco and any other city with a significant walking population (hopefully all of them) and urban planners with brains to ban the Segway. Oddly enough, the best argument I've seen for this comes from G…
  • [quote]Originally posted by New: wow, solfege, all of a sudden I felt proud to be a AI member... Perhaps I should call you Solfege X... say it after me... I'm AI and I'm proud... (with an irish accent, like in the Commitments... Merc…
  • Aha, these idiots have just tread onto my personal territory of expertise (I'm a philosophy professor), so I hope you willl excuse a bit of a critique. This argument is about as foolish as an argument can get-or more correctly, there is in fact n…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Ybot: Am I the only person who is really, really not interested in purchasing a tablet PC, no matter how drop-dead gorgeous Mr. Ive has made it look? I have a laptop, which does everything a tablet would do AND it ha…
  • On the basis of the originally stated criteria, the first poster who comes to mind is Programmer. Thought provoking, well argued, and enormously patient with all of us who don't have the same level of technical expertise. My 2¢ solfege
  • [quote]Originally posted by Anders: I don´t get the cat pics. With you on that, unless the metaphor in question is just that of a cat's notorious lack of attention span / ability to care much. But even this is a bit tenuous, methinks. …

  • [quote]Originally posted by bauman: I just did this about a month ago, and the "Desktop (Mac OS 9)" keeps reappearing on my hard drive. I delete it (with the terminal because it's very stubborn), and it comes right back after a restart. Any ide…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Moogs: The icon thing is not a bug. Most likely that's the way Apple wants it. Arrogant for sure, but probably they feel like having those specific icons is part of the interface metaphor. They want people to acclimate t…
  • [quote]Originally posted by Overhope: Not from what I can see: the icon for the toolbar lives in System/Library/Coreservices/SystemIcons.bundle/Contents/Resources and is called iMac.icns, and there aren't any other computer icons in there as f…
  • [quote]Originally posted by visigothe: I am entirely talking out of my arse on this [as I don't have Jag yet] But I've come across this problem [Icons] before in 10.0 and 10.1x. Nothing seems to happen when you cut/paste a new icon... the solution,…
