    in Panther: can you drag files to a minimized window? Comment by ringo September 2003
  • Quote: Originally posted by rok i really like expose, but i have to admit that the minimize-to-dock seems to be at conflict with it. for those who are running panther, if you have minimized windows and activate expose, do the minimized windows co…
    in Panther: can you drag files to a minimized window? Comment by ringo September 2003
  • The Dock assumes that when you drag a file into it that you want to add it. I doubt that will ever change since it makes a lot more sense.

  • Dubya wishes he had one, but only I posses such a weapon of global destruction (I keep it in a shoe box). *maniacal laughter*

    in How fast is Panther on my iBook 500Mhz? Comment by ringo September 2003
  • I have a "friend" who has Panther 7B53 and a 500mhz iBook with 384MB of RAM and and 10 GB hard drive. "My friend" said that it runs quite a bit faster than Jaguar. Specifically dragging windows around showed a huge improvement, as well as with windo…

  • I have a few thoughts on this subject. First, I do believe that the fusion bomb is many times more humanitary than the fission bomb. The reason for this is that the lasting effects of that type of reaction are much smaller, despite the larger imm…

    in The "open with" menu Comment by ringo September 2003
  • I don't know of any programs to do that, however it would be fairly easy to create a folder actions script in Panther to accomplish the same thing. You could place that folder in the dock and give it a custom icon. In fact... that sounds like a real…

  • So where exactly is the proof that Opteron is faster than a G5? Or cheaper? Matter of fact... while you have accused everyone else of lying, can you back up any of your claims other than the fact that there's eventually going to be a version of W…

  • I have never heard of FXP, and after searching a bit I'm still not quite sure what it is. If it's that obscure, I wouldn't go so far as to label clients that don't support it as bad. As for Asian (and other UTF-16) fonts, I'm fairly certain Transmit…

  • Transmit (http://panic.com/) It's shareware, but the messages that pop up reminding you to register are hilarious.
