The author is really have a dig at both sides though...here he takes the piss out of windows: "So is the mini a maxi value?* For me, clearly, no.* When I consider that a good deal of my time is spent running applications like Disk Defragmenter, Scandisk, Norton AV, Windows Update and...

It's satire!!!! The article is mean't to be a joke!!

Easy boys & girls... Like gerbick said, it's just a satirical site. I saw the same thing happen the Australian mac page, appletalk.com.au - people were going nuts over the article! By they way, the "Linux for his grandmother" piece is a crack up. :)

Yep, it does, did it for someone at work. You have to use Terminal because the files are hidden in Finder. In Terminal, it goes something like this: cd /Volumes/<name of ipod> Change to ipod folder cp -R <music folder> ~/<target folder> copy music -R = copy all files & sub folders in...

Here's one way. You'll need to be using FileMaker 6 as I think that allows popup messages that can display they value of a field, not just static text like previous versions. FileMaker has no inbuilt way to automatically execute a script at a specified time or interval, so you'll need to...

Yep, always connecting via ftp.

Sorry twister, can't help you there. Since 10.2.2 Dreamweaver MX still works as it should. Guess I could only suggest re-installing it (MX) if no one else has any clues?

phpMyAdmin is fantastic. There's also a great php library out there called ezSQL which makes it amazingly easy to interface with mySQL. php.justvincent.com Just learn PHP and love it. It's a great scripting language. And FileMaker isn't really that much of a toy. I...

Yep, I'd live to get rid of smoothing too and change the system fonts.

The most similar app would be FileMaker Pro as it combines database and user interface features. Though it won't read the *.mdb files. You would need to export the data as text first, create a new FileMaker Pro database with the same fields, then import that data. Obviously you would need...

Yes, if your happy to buy a licence for each machine. I administrate a mixed SQL Server, php intranet, FileMaker Pro environment. FMPro is widely used by all staff with minimal computing skills to create/maintain thier own dbs and create reports. Most of the stuff they come up with is...

Not sure how to fix your particular problem. When I did the upgrade to Jaguar, mysql refused to work at all. So all I did was re-install it using Marc Liyanage package. http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/mysql/ So I guess if no one else has an easy solution, back up and re-install!

so php requests to mysql work, but not command line access?

In particular, I want to scan film. But I really want to make sure it's compatible with 10.2 before I hand over the cash.

karavite I was just about to post the same query myself! Guess I'll just jump on this bandwagon and see what happens.
