  • iPhone Configuration Utility has had that checkbox for some time because it applies to the iPhone's camera. iPCU is also used with iPod touch and iPad. On those devices the camera setting is meaningless because there is no camera. Nothing t…

  • Marshall, Texas is known as an easy court for patent hoarders to win. Nearly all questionable patent litigation occurs here, even though neither party has any reason to file in Texas. That factor alone leads me to believe this is complete BS a…

  • iTunes already has this. I never have to unmount my iPod. It does it automatically after sync.

  • All this talk about asian manufacturing makes me wonder if piracy and counterfeiting is a problem for Apple in China. I wonder if there are factories in China churning out Mac clones of some sort. I had thought that Apple's products are too diffic…

  • I run the mac user group at my school. We're considering getting a room with a satellite downlink to watch, but if not we'll just pack into someone's room with a TV and stereo hooked up to a powerbook. That should be good enough.

  • I got my Performa 6400 at Office Max in December of 1996. At the time Office Max was cleaning out every Mac they had, so I got the 200 MHz model (not the VES) for $900 and they were giving away the small 13" Apple Display with it, but I got the big…

  • I think that 10.2 will be a much quieter update. With 10.1 there were serious UI and speed issues that needed to be addressed in public. While OS X still has its issues, they are not huge enough to require the spotlight when they are fixed unless …

  • AIMM is just a third party aim client. You need a screen name and password for the AIM service. You can register for that on the AOL website. The registration for AIM is free.

  • I tried YDL 2.1 on my 6400 and hated it. It took forever to boot, forever to load KDE and was disgustingly slow. The only thing I liked were all the games that came with it. I played jezzball a lot. Otherwise it didn't do a single thing that I w…

  • Why rewrite the OS? The OS is fine. What it needs is applications. A finder, to browse the rest of the hard disk would be nice. And of course more games would also be nice. Pixo's developer information doesn't seem to be that helpful though. …
    in iPod apps - a possibility Comment by waffffffle December 2001
  • i have a hard time believing apple would release an app like this when every new machine that they've released in the last 2 years has lacked an analog audio-in jack. That would be the most important piece of hardware to the amateur musician,

  • It would be nice if classic/OS 9 could be made smaller and somewhat "embedded" into X (if that's the proper way to say it. It would be nice if classic could boot without loading a single extension and actually pipe things like QT and stuff through …

  • still that's an amazing deal. If i didn't have one already i;d buy one. educational pricing makes it even better.
    in iBook Instant rebate Comment by waffffffle December 2001
  • G4, plain and simple. That I see is the most important feature missing off the iBook right now. My sister just got a new iBook to take off to school and its still pretty slow in OS X (although to her it feels faster than her iMac Rev B in 9.1 so s…
    in What would make you upgrade your iBook? Comment by waffffffle August 2002
  • I have an iBook 500 combo and a Pismo 400. I find that in OS 9 the iBook is noticeably faster but in OS X the Pismo wipes the floor with the iBook. IE scroll speed on the iBook is atrocious. Although it could be because the Pismo has 640 MB of ra…

  • I think we'll see the low end iMac at $1000 for education only at MWNY. It'll have a CD-ROM and only 64MB of RAM and a small hard disk.

  • Look, Apple didn't create the iPod in order to make money off iPod sales. They created it in order to make the Mac platform more attractive. I guarantee you that if they ever were to come up with more digital devices (which they probably will) the…
    in Windowless iPod kit from Apple- when? Comment by waffffffle January 2002
  • I think the most important thing that Apple needs to add to the pro mouse is a second "button." It shouldn't actually be a seperate button, nor look like one, but instead the mouse should react differently to clicks on different parts of its surfac…
