Quote: Originally posted by Chris Cuilla I understand all of that (and there are some good examples of the various a la carte features already listed here). Many of which are free. That's cool. My sense was the desire to create a complete .Mac fe…

Quote: Originally posted by tonton But at my company, we have a switch, not a router, and I don't know if there's any way to forward the port. I couldn't get it to work at all. A switch and a router are nothing alike. Your router probably has…

Quote: Originally posted by Chris Cuilla I thought that one the stated goals was "Must be free or significantly less than $99/year." and "Cross-platform support. Not a requirement, per se, but it'd be nice." Even so... .Mac does much more t…

Quote: Originally posted by Chris Cuilla Seems like a lot of hassle (and far less seemless integration) just to save $8.25 a month. The boon would be cross-platform compatibility. Possibly the ability to sync browsers other than just Safari…

Quote: Online storage space (iDisk): Box.net offers 1 GB of storage for free, 5 GB for $4.99/mo. At first glance it appears to mount on the desktop just like an iDisk. It also offers cross-platform support for those of us with Macs at home who use …

Quote: Originally posted by sandau not sure what that means, but I'm sure a lot of us always use the best tool for the job. For me, playing Counterstrike requires Windows XP, a fast box and a smoking video card. For everything else, OS X on a M…

Quote: Originally posted by Corey Yeah, the EvDO card slot killed the purchase for me. I am using a Sony GSM/EDGE card. I was seriously hoping Apple would build that into the unit. I knew they might not, but I had a dream! I never saw the EvDO ca…

Quote: Originally posted by auxio hmm... Apple gave me a ship date, changed it once when they _upgraded_ my order (I'd like to see that from Dell), then shipped it to me 3 days ahead of the changed date. i'd hate to end up with a WinDell just …

http://www.unsanity.org/archives/000449.php It was posted in a related topic in Applications. Apparently when Safari asks OS X if the file is safe, OS X doesn't check to see if there is a hard-coded application to open this file. It just looks …

Termainl.app (and I believe iTerm.app) will open .term files. A .term file is just a plist (XML property list). Most of the stuff defined in the property list will be things like windows size, color, transparency, and other preferences. But one o…

Kickaha: Thanks for the reply. I'm not trying to advocate professors being lazy and I have to agree with you on most of your points. I did not realize that you were really advocating a lecture... lecture. I thought that you were of the mind t…

Quote: Originally posted by Electric Monk They both suck horribly. Apple Mail is probably marginally better though. And everything else is generally worse, though they might have some features or basics done better. Sigh, for doing so many oth…

Quote: Originally posted by hardeeharhar The other issue here is that it would be a beneficial exercise for the student to transcribe the notes onto their computer... so many people already do this while studying... The point is that you are …

Quote: Originally posted by Kickaha I think the point was that there's very little reason to access that material *during* the lecture. Anything I wanted the students to have access to during a lecture, I gave them. On paper. No situation wher…
