I am sure this exists, but how can I get the terminal to print out the days and hours remaining till a certain date and time? I want to make an iChatStatus Script to show how many days left till events...

No, it isn't a virus, it is the Windows Security Bulletin stuff, and I am pretty sure it is a legit email from MS.

I find it a bit faster then jaguar, but not that much faster, probably around 10%, and bootup time is about 20% faster :p

I am sure you will be able to do an Archive Install to go from panther beta to final, but I am going to clean install anyway just to make sure everything is stable. I use Panther 7B59 as my main OS now, and I have not experienced one problem :p

Apple used to have a handheld, the Newton, it was sweet :P

I don't have one, but I have an iBook :p

Back to the original question, I think you made the WRONG choice, if you don't like our answers, DONT ASK ON A MAC FORUM.

My iBook (see sig) Takes 43 seconds from the boot sound, to the login screen :p Panther sure helped this, and well as me deleting some startup items :p

Every 5 minutes I am getting the same email from MS about how crappy windows is and there there are a bunch of new wholes that you need to patch today. I DONT USE WINDOWS OR CARE HOW CRAPPY IT IS. At least Mail has a nice junk filter that trashes this for me :p

7B59 is the first build I have used since 7B39, but I definitely don't have that problem now.

I don't see any problems with it :cool:

If you really build PCs (I used to before I switched) you would know that dells hardware is pretty crappy compared to what else you can get. Jaguar was a little slow for some things, but panther fixes all this plus more. And if you really want to warez software for OS X, it is damn easy...

They are not that over priced for what you get, you can also use it as a portable hard drive, and with pod2go, you can put webpages and any info you want it, plus use it as a calendar and address book with iSync :cool:

Most of the time, the 12'' PB isn't hot at all, it is only when you are using 100% CPU for long periods of time, or constantly accessing the disk that it heats up. LOL, since when is anything on a PC the latest? PC Laptops can get just as hot. If you want a bigger screen, get a 14''...
