I have a USB pen drive that I frequently use for getting files at work and then coming home and copying them to my Mac. I was wondering if it would be possible to write an Applescript to save me some time in copying stuff from the drive to my Mac. Would it be possible to write one where once...

In light of some recent local events, I have been talking to my parents about trying to install a camera of some sort to monitor the driveway while we're out. I was thinking that a simple USB webcam would suit our purpose, as I have found some programs that can take video from webcams and...

My brother works for RadioShack - I have a couple of CD-Rs from them that have been in my CD collection for a couple of years now and they still work excellent.

I'm not sure how to do it on OS X but I got bored of seeing the same name for the printer on my dad's OS 9 laptop. I found the printer driver to it and changed the name from "SC740" to "Pinky the SC740" just because Pinky (Pinky and the Brain mini-cartoon from Anamaniacs) sounded like a funny...

I have Memorex and Maxell CD-Rs and both companies work excellent for me. I have a few in my car for music and they stand up to the below-freezing temperatures overnight as well as the cold temperatures when I start listening in the morning on my way to school.

That avatar can't be a devil mascot; it looks like Calvin from the comic Calvin & Hobbes in a Devil suit ;-)

I did a little lookin' online and it is essentially a Christian thing. With that said, any ideas on good slogans for t-shirts that are pro-geek/nerd? Nerds aren't a bad thing.....in fact they are about the yummiest kind of candy. I especially love the watermelon ones...

For some crazy reason, there has been a crazy shirt people are wearing around my school. They're black and have white writing that says "Satan is a nerd." I don't quite get what the shirt is suppose to be saying, but I kinda get the urge to deck people wearing it. Any opinions on what this means?

I would like to use the grab option in the services menu, but for some reason it never lets me select any of the options in it. They are all always that faded grey color. Anyone know what I can do to get that option to work?

With college less than a year down the road for me, I would like to buy a laptop. I know that I want a 12" screen, because I don't really have the need or want for a large screen. But I can't decide on an iBook or a PowerBook. I have read most of the reviews on both, which makes the choice...

If you look in the Help files for Jaguar and read the information about burning CDs, it'll tell you the formats the CDs are burned in. When inserting a CD-R and the dialogue pops up asking what application to open, by going to Finder, you just type in the name you want for the CD and it mounts...

I have bene tinkering with the cd-rws the past few days and have tried different ways of getting them to mount. If you just select to have them open in Finder an error type -43 dialogue pops up and ejects the cd. I went into Disk Utility and told that program to do a quick erase and the same...

I bought some Memorex CD-RWs that say they can be written on from 4x to 12x. I tried putting one in my computer and it tries reading them and then ejects it and pops an error dialogue saying that it couldn't read them. I know this thing has the ability to burn CD-RWs but it doesn't want to...

Speaking of Star Wars.........click this link http://www.spymac.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=7867 Straight from the mouth of Yoda as to why <i>he</i> made the switch to Apple :) Just thought a little humor could help. I get the "Apple's suck" from my friends at High School all the...

I'm taking Calculus right now in high school and just reading that post made my mind ache ;) Christmas break begins at the end of the day tomorrow, except that my mind has already shut down...oh well - math is cool.

I did one for my girlfriend...ordered it Sunday night and it was at the post office on Wednesday of that week. And I have to agree, the books look extremely nice!

I still have them wrapped up - I was gonna stick one on the back of my car but the Saturn dealer told me my engine was dying. Since my mom got a new car over the summer, I took possession of her older Saturn and I have intentions of placing one of the stickers in the middle bottom of the rear...

From what Powerbookcentral.com, as well as the website for electrovaya, they do have PowerPads that are compatible with Macs. They are the PowerPad 120C and PowerPad 160C. The C apparently is a designation for computer type supported, as A and B are for different Windows-based laptops. The C...

Every single new phone book in the entire county and possibly more in the area I live had an advertisement on the front for a car dealer.....the stuff was in a web browser window and it was an OS 9 mac internet explorer window in the lime color. I just thought that was pretty cool. As for the...

My brother recently tried connecting to his computer using this program on mine. His computer runs XP and does have remote access turned on. However, the network in his apartment is set up differently, and the port for traffic is different than that of what the program uses. We tried putting...
