  • let me make it clear, thinksecret is NOT wrong about the specs. I know they are correct ;-)

  • i don't want a machine from a company firmly rooted in "graphics, art, and science" to be underpowered or the same as any other company. People pay a premium for their macs, they expect better. The reason I drive a Ducati 749 Testastretta is because…

  • Why is everyone so upset about the graphics card??? It's not like macs were designed to be good with graphics! iMacs are only really designed for text word processing.. If apple puts a sh*t card in the iMac f*CK 'EM. You have to be a retard to sh…

  • how about an external ibook 12' battery charger (newest ibook revision)? Then I could just buy a couple extra batteries and be on power forever ;-)

  • i wasn't aware you could do this with airport extreme cards. Are you using an older airport card (supports passive mode)

  • I currently own a 12' powerbook (6 months old) and just this week I bought a brand new 12' ibook. I actually like the ibook better! *Better airport reception *I prefer the keyboard style of the ibook (an adjustment but easier to type on) *Ea…

  • 7b85 is GM. We'll see a few more builds leak out after this right away. 7b85 is going to presses as we speak. Confirmed by two Apple employees that I've known for a long time.

  • I use that Joliet CD extension that a guy wrote for OS 9. Still have to boot into OS 9 for it. I bet he'd be willing to share the code and have somebody write an extension for OS X that supports this.

  • I'd like everything through the command line. I'm building a little application with RealBasic which has full access to the shell. This makes it easier to have my client authenticate then run the shell commands as sudo user
    in Create New User Account From Command Line? Comment by inkhead September 2003
  • Yeah I figured out the group thing. As far as GID and UID in all other accounts including system one both are the same number. Adding my user to the admin group let it have full permissions through SSH. Jelly, Can you please give me an example…

  • I realize I keep posting, mostly because I'm self learning. I figure somebody else might want this information too. Here's how to remove the account later on. It removes all the properties you created for that user when you delete his account. So…
    in Create New User Account From Command Line? Comment by inkhead September 2003
  • This creates the user bob with a low uid 006. It assumes that no other program on my clients computers will have 006 as there user ID. This prevents the user from showing up in the Mac OS X login window. Code: sudo niutil -create / /users/bob s…
    in Create New User Account From Command Line? Comment by inkhead September 2003
  • Jelly Thanks! Can you give me an example based on what I want? Lol, I'm lost with this tool. For example, I want to create a "God" user named "bob" with password "bob" that doesn't show up in the user login window. Thanks again! Based …

  • People on older computers will notice the biggest speed increases. Panther will feel like a processor upgrade for you. It's good. Trust me. Those machines that are already fast g4 towers, duals, g5s won't notice that much difference in using the …

  • Yeah I checked with somebody who works for catipillar today, they have DOD computers in the building, and this is the exact message they contain. I'm guessing the screenshots are just from jaguar (10.2) as OS X is one of the best OSes in the world f…

  • Actually I'm pretty certain that both of the screenshots are real. They had to post them this way because you can't screenshot the login window. I've seen similar setups (although not as elegant) with other builds of Mac OS X. If it is a fake the…
