Well, let me expand on that. The word 'speed' was used as what I was about to talk about - not that I think this machine or OS is a speed warrior! I don't find it terribly slow and what I said was that it was snappy and responsive. In many areas …

LOL! Number picked, now patiently waiting! Thanks for the reply starfleetX. I understand a few things more clearly now and I will definitely check out Version Tracker. I just installed TinkerTool and it's great! Thanks for the tip. I like the …

I'm not really new to using Macs. I had a Color Classic II running system 7 in 95-97 and at work I had a Quadra up to OS 8 (I think it was 8 any way). My sister had the Bondi iMac from OS 8 through OS 9. So I am not new to the Mac world, just rus…

Yeah well, 'Geneva' is a horror! I don't care how long it's been around, someone please put it out of it's misery! I hate when programs get all natzi and won't let you change certain options. In a case like this, they've 'uglified' the progr…

[quote]Originally posted by Junkyard Dawg: [QB]I love the system font in OS X, it looks gorgeous on my system. Yes, for the most part the OS X fonts are great, but I am talking about another font. The font that is default for the IE5 (address b…

I was in RCS Computers here in Manhattan yesterday and was playing with the new iMac (which by the way, due to it's color was getting a bit dirty and shoddy looking. I guess people can't help but feel it up, though they should wash their hands!) …

Acquisition never, EVER returns, finds, or downloads ANYTHING! It's just awful ( at least for me it is). Every time I go and give it another try I just wind up exiting the program agitated. LimeWire may be ugly, bloated and a bit buggy, but i…

Actually, that IS the XP version. AOL 8.0 for PC is due out this month and it actually looks just like 10.2 for Mac (but the XP version is a bit nicer, ironically). AOL always ported the PC version GUI over to Mac (for the most part). I guess…

Norton is just EVIL! I stay away from all their products on both my Mac and PC. Your computer will run better without them.

I've been using Office X for about a year now and haven't bombed at all. Does everyone have the latest update?

Snood is the best! I first started playing way back when on my Quadra years ago. Then he made a PC version and I've been playing it on my PC ever since (same exact game). Now I even have it on my PocketPC! I am glad that the OS X version is comi…

Now THAT was hilarious!

Of course .mac makes sense for Apple. That's a given and I don't think anyone is disputing that. Is this a good idea because it's good for Apple? The problem is, they are not giving the users a choice to just keep their eMail addresses for a much…

I think this is a bit much. Apple certainly has the right to charge for these services. I think most people agree that there simply needs to be more choices involved. Apple is saying use all of the services for $99 or use none at all. Different …

It looks and acts exactly like RealOne for the PC (thank god Real calmed down the Ads dramatically with both versions). Real is still not my #1 choice for streaming, but it looks like we have no choice (for the Mac if the site does not offer QT) un…

[quote]Originally posted by AllenChristopher: Sure. The question is whether people will be able to pull the download off. Most downloaded software is never installed: people download it but can't figure out how to run the installer, so it sits …

I just use the 'delete' key to delete play lists. If you want to delete a track from the play list you could either just press the 'delete' key, or just drag it to the trash can. Either way work.

I think iTunes is great! The metal look is quite nice as it's a nice break from the 'everything white with horizontal pinstripes' look. It loads fast and the CDDB feature is flawless. It also couldn't possibly be easier to use. The only thin…

Yeah, Toast is great in OS X. Very easy to use with a great UI. Definitely open Toast before inserting a CDR/W to bypass that message. The only quirky thing I found with Toast is that when I add to a session on a CDRW and re-insert the CD, OS X m…

Windows Messenger is great! I use it more than AIM. It has an excellent file transfer feature and a funky GUI. The built in sound and webcam support is awesome! Me and my friends can easily connect with our cameras and talk over the net with sha…
