  • I've used many versions of Jag and I wouldn't go as so far as to say it's FASTER, per se, it's just so much more responsive. It feels like it should. You double click on a folder and it opens as soon as you're done double clicking, the way it should…
  • I think the best thing for Apple to do, since they're on this whole digital movie kick is to buy out the program Movie Maestro, redo it as an iApp, and incorporate it into their digital hub. (For those of you who don't know, Movie Maestro is simple…

  • [quote]Originally posted by BuonRotto: They're probably still playing with their options here. They might have something else entirely in the works. Anyway, this kind of thing happens all the time in test builds. Exactly. You might recall that…
  • One of the cool things about Jaguar is when an app crashes (spinning blob similar to the disk burning icon in iTunes), the dock updates that app's icon with a small error symbol. Jaguar is full of the little things that makes using Macs a pleasure. …
  • [quote]Originally posted by Matsu: Amazing, that I exactly predicted this feature yet no one is lining up to kiss my a$$, yet we had months of people tounge bathing Kormac's cheeks whist he has never gotten ANY speculation correct. Why…
  • Just some friendly advice to some of you out there: if you want to get laid, leave the computer alone, go out, and meet people first. I'm 99% sure sitting at your computer all day and posting on this board won't help you get laid by someone you've …
  • The velocity engine actually becomes more effecient with QE because now the CPU and VE can concentrate on getting work done instead of using clock cycles to display everything on screen. Jaguar itself is a win-win for everyone, it'll just be more…
  • I didn't mean to start a troll war or a flame fest, my fault. I guess, as far as opinions go, we'll just have to agree to disagree. My apologies. (it was a long day...... I was working on PCs. )
  • [quote]Originally posted by BuonRotto: [b] In other words, where is the weakest link? [ 05-28-2002: Message edited by: BuonRotto ] I'll take a shot at that one: The weakest link is the people who don't know squat about the technology and c…
  • A couple of things: First of all, I'd like to thank you guys and tell you that this thread right here is a breath of fresh air. Intelligent people making intelligent comments posting intelligent thoughts and getting intelligent replies. *sigh* …
  • [quote]Originally posted by Carbon3: It's *much* faster. Hmmm... I see you're trying to master the skill of the understatement, eh?
  • To be honest, I always thought that MacOS X, being a dynamic OS, would alleviate the need for font management software by loading the fonts only when needed. I find it difficult to believe that they can find a way to tunnel Quartz through OpenGL yet…
  • Look man!! You don't NEED font management in OS X! OS X IS PERFECT AS IS!!!! You don't NEED third party apps to make it great because OS X IS GREAT AND STEVE JOBS IS GOD!!!!!!!!! AND GOD IS NEVER WRONG!!!!!!! Lamers. (just in case someone mi…
  • I guess this little detail Apple has put into the Unix-based OS X is the ultimate answer to the ultimate question in another forum (the question being: WTF happened to our OS?!)... It's getting better and better. What Apple has done with the U…
  • "The future of Classic?" Isn't that an oxymoron?
  • [quote]Originally posted by robo: You can just explain to her that the last three letters after the dot are a code that the computer uses so it knows what kind of file you are telling it to open. It didn't recognize .image, so it said it couldn't o…

  • By the way, I'm glad Apple finally got all the debugging code out of here. Sheesh!
