That beep is still there. I purchased the album last night.

Wow, crazy things. To stay true to their word, a lot of people on these and other boards are going to have to eat some strange things! Truthfully though, AIM has been like a bad relationship for a long time now. Especially since there doesn't s…

Everybody here is piling on Maxon, but I wonder how many of you have ever used Cinema4D? I don't that much now, but I did a couple of versions ago. From the end users perspective there is nothing to suggest a messed up code-base. It was rewritten…

This sounded like a pretty general topic, but it has quickly gotten bogged down in details like PCI-E and so on. More generally, I think there is an open question about the future direction of Apple the company. I hate it when people take one Jo…

Its frustrating when the rainbow is going on for 30 seconds or so, and you can see: no significant disk access, no sigificant ram access, no significant processor access. It's just like: well, we've screwed up something, but let's wait a bit here …

I use Safari for casual browsing, but when it comes to paying bills I use Firefox, or if I'm in a real rush I still use IE, just so I don't have to deal with the headache. That's a terrible situation. I think Safari is a little behind on flexibili…

From the super-secretive Apple, the Services menu may be their best kept secret. Honestly, in my entire time from 10.0 I have never directly selected anything out of the services menu. I don't know if there are certain operations that I do that in…

Unfortunately, as long as you use FrontPage you are part of the problem. There can never be a good Web editor as long as functional web code is a de facto Microsoft standard.

Yes, when rendering. You have to play around with the number of threads, but yes. Outside of rendering, I'm not sure.

kotatsu, I'm sure you have figured out from all these replies that it is very unlikely that Max will every make it to the Mac. My understanding is that it is largely the Windows based core, and partly some politics. Whatever. This is the w…

For me, it is the loss of control. I don't care about iTunes, because I just download or import music and it organizes it for me. End of story. But when I take a photo, it is usually just a starting point. Manipulation in PS, or as a background …

I've only been watching for about five years now, but Adobe is definitely moving in the Windows direction. From what I know, they have always rolled their own with respect to UI, and admirably they have led they way on a couple of occasions. I s…

What about Expression? I don't use it myself, but it sounds like it might work for you. Price is right too. expression

Can I make arcane posts about i**2 now?

Prices seem to be approximately inline with prices at www.academicsuperstore.com so I would guess that they are legit.

I think there is enough room between the iMac and the Powermac for a new line. But okay, Apple doesn't. In that case they have to try to stretch their two lines a little bit more. Cheaper single proc G5 towers, better graphics card option for iMa…

Not so bad. It is pretty elegant. It is just too bad that the pictures on Apple's web site look ten times worse than those taken by an apparent point-and-clicker at the Expo. Either this random guy is the next Ansel Adams or somebody at Apple n…

Well, I know that in both Cinema and Lightwave forums OpenGL for the Mac is considered a disappointment. I'm not an expert, but that is just what I've observed. I don't know about Maya. If I were to make a diagnosis I would say that right now App…

My opinion was that single button was good for the OS X transition. You know, keep the developers somewhat loyal to the spirit of the Mac. But that transition is over now, so I'd like to see a multi-button mouse option too. It is funny to rea…

geobe, TBS not comedy channel. very funny This came up a while ago on Macnn, but people there were of the opinion that these were props hacked together from currently available iMacs. Personally, I don't know. That seems like a lot of tr…
