I have been following the SCO vs. _____ (fill in the blank) case for quite some time now worried about the implications of an IT company whose primary product is law suits. Initially I was also interested in seeing just what code they thought they found. I have had a long history with both...

I hadn't noticed the date, but about a week ago (Sept 13th actually) Mac OS X had it's third anniversary of being available to the general public (originally in the form of Mac OS X Public Beta). Some of us have been using Mac OS X for three years now (and some of us even longer than that)...

In an effort to help improve the Press3 exams, I am posting these reviews by people who have taken them (originally posted by Jadey on 6/7/2002). I have not taken these exams or been part of the program, but I did choose Apple's training program (which is designed quite differently... but then...

Way to hit 1000 post running! :D

Within the next month LiveMath for Mac OS X should be released. LiveMath (originally called Theorist) is one of the best math programs I have ever used. I was very happy to see that LiveMath's Mac roots are still very strong (as reported in this MacCentral article). The only other program that I...

I was looking at some articles on Mac OS X and noticing a trend, most magazines are trying to make the windows into rectangles. Then looking at some books on the subject of Mac OS X I noticed the same thing. The one common thing about all of these publications was that the articles and/or books...

I would like to welcome my good friend Rob to the 1000 posts club! I don't know if he is going to see this, but... Way to go! :D

U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly stated in a discussion about file formats warned the parties that she wanted all documentation " In Word. We don't want Acrobat. That doesn't work." Okay, why doesn't it work? PDF doesn't require you to buy anything in order to read it or in many...

I came across the strangest problem with the newest version of Suitcase. One of my clients loves Suitcase and have been using it for the last few years. His company just moved him up to one of the Quicksilver G4s (I did the transfer and setup of his system about a month ago), and one of the...

This may end up being a thread only Matt (MDLarson) and I post in, but what is up with Minnesota and High School Hockey? It takes over one of our stations each year. Being from San Diego, this is not only strange because it is Hockey, but also because California has some of the best High School...

not. Here is an interesting point. At what point did the Clintons involvement in the Whitewater land deal become so great that a special prosecutor was assigned? You may recall that the former partners of the Clintons had a land deal go very bad and after almost 6 years of investigation Starr...

I'm sure that many of you have had a chance to read Jim Carlton's book Apple that was released back in 1997. I thought that we should revisit the end of his tale which (like so many before him) predicts that demise of Apple as being just on the horizon. Yeah, I guess I can see his point...
