  • I asked my girlie today if she'd like a 20 inch iMac, she said she'd rather have a 17 inch one because the 20 incher is too big, "ugly" she called it. I asked her if she'd consider the 20 inch iMac if it had the smaller border on the bottom and she…
  • You might want to try out something from Bare Bones Software such as TextWrangler or the more powerful BBEdit. I personally use TextMate which I like very much. There are also ways of configuring and extending XCode to function as a PHP editor and…
  • I don't really care what they do as long as they do something! The entire lineup hasn't seen a major case design change for a long time, they're starting to get a little... stale.
  • Quote: Originally posted by cubist Matsu, your wonderful posts about frames and aspect ratios are some of the most beautiful examples of rationalization I've ever seen. Gotta hand it to you, champ. Here here, he is fantastic at it, makes it a…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Matsu Apple isn't interested in a rotating display. That ship has docked, sailed, and sank. When we get into 20"+ screens, there's no longer a practical need to rotate screens 99.999% of the time. The whole point of…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Zenga The curent imac is flawless and so will be the 23" I bet you'd change your tone if Apple released a new iMac that looked just like his mockup
  • Quote: Originally posted by icfireball Apple says, "BAM", we will ship OS X Leopard on this date (around the time of vista) and here are the features: x, y, & z. Haha! Bam? Who is this? Emeril Lagase? I totally agree that this is what App…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Matsu No. There's nothing inherently good about making the computer all screen and nothing else. It doesn't help the design at all, and of course, if you look more closely, there's a lot more in the chin than just sp…
  • I wonder why the date was pushed back from June when WWDC usually occurs. Perhaps they had some cool new features in leopard they really wanted to show off that simply wouldn't be ready in time.
  • I just realized that OS X only asks for the password once, not for each file, so if Apple were to implement my previous suggestion either you'd have to enter your password to give permission for each individual file that the program needs access to,…
  • I always place my dock on the bottom, since the aspect ratio of computer monitors, particularly wide-screen monitors such as the one on my powerbook, provides the user with more horizontal space than vertical having the dock on the bottom lets you a…
  • People buy tablets which have input methods not nearly as nice as a flat keyboard, it wouldn't be quite as usable as a standard laptop keyboard but such a laptop could be a tablet killer, especially if it were able to open up 180º.
  • Quick n' dirty (5 seconds of effort) mock-up, I give you, the MacBook DS!
  • Quote: Originally posted by jetting yeah i figured that out in itunes but the problem is if my comps turned off and my mom logs in then it wont work. idk i really gotta find a permanant solution Why are you turning you computer off? Do you n…
  • I think the behavior should be left as it is, I don't see that behavior as the problem. The problem, I feel, is that the finder is lacking in keyboard control for selection, there needs to be another modifier key, perhaps option, that, when held, d…
  • If you've overshot then simply press command and click on item you want to deselect, it seems to me the finder's way is a lot better for massive selection starting from any point within the folder.
  • To share the iTunes library open iTunes and find the iTunes preferences in the iTunes(Application) menu. Select the sharing tab and from here you can share your iTunes library or even select certain playlists to exclusively share. Then, assuming y…
  • What sort of network are you using? This is all wireless and not every user has a perfectly optimal signal so that's the biggest bottleneck, but it's horrible opening a folder with many files in it over AFP.
  • I work as an IT administrator and I have to say I am downright EMBARRASSED about filesharing in the finder. Our company issues an iBook to every employee, many of them have never used Macs before and are amazed by them, but these are people coming …
  • Quote: Originally posted by icfireball I'm thinking maybe emphasis on Media and Living Room / Front Row, etc. I don't think Apple will really WOW anybody just by doing their version of the media center PC, Apple has a very good thing going wi…
