  • All in all, its a good idea, but dont forget that iChat is based on peer to peer chatting. So basically, you would need to have that 1 CNN peer or whatever connecting to you, if it went down, there is really no way (at least now) to have that car…
  • You, my friend, need to do the following... Purchase Indesign 2 - You will need it and it's not worth it to wait. It's like people waiting for new mac 6 months from release. InDesign 2 recently came out and its the best design app on the market, …

  • Believe it or not, the US Armed Forces have almost always loved Apple. I little while after Apple discontinued the Newton lineup, the USArmy ran a test with like 10,000 troops, all equiped with Newtons to see how technologically aided troops of a sm…

  • if you have the time, i would go with filemaker or some db application: Pros: Mac and Win Compatible Store Excel Files Time Stamp that has real integrity Generate graphs quickly Cons: You gotta learn how to do it, hence time If its r…
  • If you live close to a telephone station get dsl, if not cable... DSL gets slower the further away you are from the server, while cable just decreases based on use in your neighborhood - though cable lag can be fixed by adding another hub and dsl…
  • hehe - it's funny you say that because a funny situation just happened to me... I stepped into a retail store and asked if they had large density firewire tape drives so that the company I am working for can have a semi portable backup of a serve…
  • Altec Landsing 2100 speakers - $99 Great sound and very powerful, 2 guys in my building had them this year and they sounded fantastic.
  • If it's listed here then the answer is yes - it will sync with iSync. There may be other programs for mac that will sync with your phone. BTW - Apple says on the page that they support Sprint PCS so I guess it depends on your phone model.
  • The only thing I absolutely HATE about FileMaker is that every file is separate - I love the Access ability to have everything self contained - if there is a view option for FileMaker or if anyone knows about any updates or hacks I would really appr…

  • iPod Is UBER-Valuable to Apple, much more than the G5... I believe 300,000 iPods have been sold since the iTMS opened not too long ago... I believe 150,000 macs were shipped this last quarter!! So once the store opens for Windows users an…
  • You are totally right - don't worry. In order for a virus to be effective it needs to access and change your system files. You do this all the time, when you install, update, etc. Yet every-time you do this you always have to put in your username…
