    in Apple Amsterdam... Comment by wormboy July 2002
  • I always wanted a desk with a frosted glass top. At all the MacWorld Expos I have been at Apple always uses this approach, and then put white fluorescent lighting under the glass, to underlight the new machines. They always look great under these ci…

  • I think you'll love the portable, but in my experience, the 17" Apple CRTs were shitty. At least the ones that were not completely clear (the Blue and white ones and the first grey ones). I would be wary of a refurbished one. I would have gone for …

  • Just to be absolutely clear, schizophrenia has nothing whatsoever to do with split personality. This is one of the greatest layman's myths of abnormal psychology.

  • Well, yes, this will work (and in fact having two bootable partitions on one drive can be useful) but it would be loads slower than it needs to be. Why not just be sensible and use the file hierarchy to your advantage? That is, keep all you work fil…

    in mobile phone Comment by wormboy January 2002
  • Well, good for you Belle. Phone culture is a bit ahead here in Europe, and three years ago it was quite bad here, but now people are getting better. Still has a long way to go though. Just this morning I went for a beagle and coffee with my girlfr…

  • external harddrive DVD-r CDRW iPod Really. A cheap internal IDE CWDR can be had for 70$ or so if you look around. That's less than most software that could be used to accomplish the same task. And you'll be likely to use the CDR…

  • OK Sizzle Chest, I've got something to say about this. Background--I too have worked in the "industry", although not in the same capacity as you: I was a drummer, for a poorly known, but reasonably competent little band. Out of the music scene for 8…
    in Do YOU Steal Music?? Comment by wormboy December 2001
  • I've had a home run in that regard... I have converted my whole lab from PC to Mac last year. It was one of the great days it was, the day I ordered 16 ibooks, 1 pismo, 4 G4s (one with a 22" ACD, the rest with Apple CRTs) and 2 iMacs 20 Air…

  • Isn't it about time that Steve and Co. got up and said something about what Microsoft has been up to? I mean, they have been sooo silent through all of this. There have been several points in time when it could have made a significant difference I t…

  • I started using Applescript when I started scripting. It was my introduction. But I quickly "graduated" to MacPerl and have found little need to go back to Applescript. I use my scripts mostly to extract information from datasets, rather than data w…

  • Artman @_@, I think you misunderstood the tone of my post. I could not care less whether London gets an Apple store. I don't live there, or any other city mentioned in my post. I was merely saying that the petition rings of a childish self-centeredn…
