I hadn't noticed, thanks for the information.
-
I use ftp from the terminal. I find it to be very responsive. As far as GUI FTP programs, I have no idea what's good.

I'd like to see them benchmark something brand new on both OS's with brand new top of the line hardware. Something like Unreal Tournament 2003 or Unreal II. Both of those games are nearing completion and would greatly show on a cutting edge system…

It's not a question of a "Domain Controller" (that's Windows speak). Apple uses OS X and Apache for their main page

It's not likely you would have a Windows virus on your machine unless you had Samba running. Samba is a Windows protocol and could be harboring the virus but it won't have any effect on your system if you're using OS X. That's where Norton Antivir…

To answer your first question, yes a dula-processor machine will be faster than a single processor machine. OS X is FULLY multithreaded and multi-processor aware. This will mean a big boost in performance but I will not provide double the performa…

My must have list is as follows: Brickhouse Mozilla AquaMon BatChmod HenWen 1.0.2 JellyFiSSH NetMonitor LimeWire MacMAME PortSniffer Webmin Samba ShadowDisk And most of the ones others have mentioned.

I have a 667 Ti Powerbook and can honestly say OS X has NEVER crashed on me. I've had an app or two go south, but NEVER the OS its-self.

I figured that was the case but I didn't know for sure. I use Linux quite a bit but I didn't know if it was the same thing since there is rarely an "Installer" for Linux software, (mostly RPM's). To answer your question, I am relatively new to…

Thanks for the input. I already knew about the drag folder to trash thing, but was wondering about Installer installed applications. I think your input has helped me greatly. I just thought there might be an "Apple automated" way of uninstalling …

You are soooo right. There's no compromise for stability and security. Like others have said, I leave my Mac on all the time and just put it into sleep mode. I also leave programs running in the dock even when I'm not using them. My Mac NEVE…

Hold in the power button on the iBook until the machine shuts down completely. Then just reboot and go on your merry way. The same thing happened to me with my Ti PowerBook and that was the fix.
-
Thanks for the input but that isn't what I'm looking for. I want to know if it's possible to be connected through PPPoE to the Internet AND on the LAN at the same time with OS X, without having any proxies or anything else. I appreciate your s…

Thanks for the shareware utility information but I've already tried that and it doesn't see any of my Wondoze or Linux boxes or shares (Linux is running Samba). I guess I'll just have to wait for Jaguar.
-
I find X11 to be very useful for the GNU apps I've downloaded and compiled on my system. I don't know how many OS X users are doing this kind of stuff though. I think it's something Apple would have to consider if enough people were interested, bu…

I hope it'll be a free upgrade, but I plan to get it either way. I hope it's no more than $100 or so.

IE 5.2 is nice for compatibility and the font anti-aliasing but Mozilla is my favorite. It's tabbed browser and pure speed make it a favorite of mine.

I don't think the update to OS X will be to 10.3 by then. Possibly a 10.2.5 update but 10.3 would seem highly unlikely.
-
I agree with you 100%. That's exactly what I've been saying about Apple making inroads with business. They now have the best OS hands down and that goes for the server side too. Jaguar only improves upon an already stellar OS. What more could yo…
