  • Yup. That and Cleveland has yet another black eye. (note to self: leave as soon as possible) I have no idea who is QBing, and I don't even remotely care. I can't stand by any of the professional sports teams here. The Indians have a racist logo…
  • I know somebody like that too! When I asked them why they just didn't take the stairs when they got home they replied: "Well, how am I supposed to know how many calories I've burned and what my heartrate is, and at the gym I can vary my resist…
  • I think you reach a certain point and you realize: 1. Expensive Boutiques (like the Abercrombie and Fitch)charge you up-the-wazoo to wear clothes you could pick up at the Salvation Army. 2. People who are insecure about being "cool" "hip" and …
  • I'm with you. How can I give to an organization that would exclude some of my best friends from membership. It stands against everything I've learned as a Christian. All of my charity dollars go to programs that benefit the community I live in wi…

  • Cleveland, OH also "detained" several Israeli students for visa violations, suspecting that they might be terrorists. What was their violation you ask? Selling toys to children. Is it me or is the United States becoming more and more the "evil …

  • [quote]Originally posted by mntrapper: What about PEAK, DECK, Cubasis, et al??? Here is a review of Peak 3.1. Sibelius was the first professional music app for OS X. It was released way back in March! It's considered the Quark of the Music …
  • <RANT SIZE="Small" SARCASM="off"> Speaking as a professional, I made the "switch" but am still waiting for more native software for OS X. These being: Music sequencing and recording software, more professional peripherals that work…
  • Try gimp-print. I use it for my Epson Stylus Photo EX, which doesn't even come equipped with USB. Supports 99% of all models of Epson printers. check it out.
  • Thanks for all the great input folks! All things considered, I may just put Darwin on and leave it at that. I'm planning to use it as a quick-and-dirty web server. The OS X front end would have been nice, but I don't think I'll waste the effort. …
  • Just so you don't feel alone... I've done that too...
  • I tried it out on a few Linux systems, but since I needed something reliable, I stuck with 5.6. I'm having a hard enough time writing decent code for the damn thing without having to worry about bugs and instability.
  • I didn't know that StarOffice can be found on Windows machines. Weird. Why would anybody buy Gate's software then? Anyway, maybe I'm wrong, it would be interesting to see StarOffice on OS X, I'd like to see how well they manage to use the aqua de…
  • No offense meant, but I don't see the point in developing StarOffice for OS X. The whole point of StarOffice is that it's Open Source, to port it to work with a proprietary interface doesn't make sense to me. If you need StarOffice, use Darwin and…
  • Yeah, I'm inclined to agree. Although I much prefer Debian. More stable, albeit antiquated.
  • Web Monkey (http://www.webmonkey.com) has an interesting primer: Enough Unix for Your Resume That I find helpful. In addition, if you really get cooking, this Unix Command Dictionary is really useful
  • Thing is, I can see why MM is going down the tubes. They came out with groundbreaking products like Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks and bought oldFusion, but after that, the magic fizzled. Version 4 of DW was a joke, not even worth the upgrade pric…
  • They might even let you upgrade for free...
