| Bobw Genius Bar Dear All, as you know, our friend Bob Wood, aka Bobw, one of the main if not THE main technical help of our site, passed away. As an homage to his work here, I propose that we start this new thread. It should include series of usual questions related to the mac OS and their answers. Anybody who would search for these questions will find the answer here. chevy ****** Please add your own finding, either by searching the site for bobw answers or by proposing your own. The only thing is to keep that thread for simple questions with short answers ******
