    The MacBook is out

    I'm looking at getting the basic model, but with only 1gb RAM - any idea how CS or CS2 will run? Basically I only really use Aperture and Photoshop, and if I can get them to run appreciably faster than on my current G4 Quicksilver Gigahertz/1GbRAM then I'm happy. I've basically stopped using...

    Hello I did try and search but I keep getting network errors and 404s when I search for threads. Basically I have a couple of quick questions that I need to find answers for pretty quickly. Firstly, does anyone know how to find out what was the latest security update applied to a client...

    Active Directory

    Why must the user SEE only their folder? We have a similar setup, but just remove all permissions from each user folder apart from that user and domain admins - so they can SEE the other user folders, they just can't get into them. I assume you done 'bind for directory access' in Directory Access.

    Viruses On Os X

I remember once it found one suspicious object and I looked it up and it was about...

The thing is, I'm not usre I really want to wait a year for the next hardware, and if it would even be worth it. If I go for the 'Book now though, I'll have just...

    FYI Extensis Suitcae Server 10 does not work for 10.4 clients - you have to upgrade the Server (not just the client) to Suitcase X1. Luckily, I had only upgraded one Mac - Suitcase X1 currently retails at around $1,299.

    Disable Dashboard?

    Hey gang. What do people think is the best way to remove the dashboard functionality? Don't get me wrong, I love Dashboard and can't wait to install Tiger at home, but I have been told to remove it for my users, as they have software for calendars etc and we want them to use that. Tiger...

    Apple to Ship Mac OS X “Tiger” on April 29

    So, can anyone recommend a good external DVD drive that will work on Blue+White G3s, G3 iMacs, G4s, and G5s? It looks like none of the iMacs have firewire, so where does that leave me? If I have to buy more than one DVD drive I am not going to be amused. One's fair enough and will be useful...
