    MS Office 10 for OS X

    This is an argument for the responsiveness of Cocoa apps? Omniweb's UI is dog slow, by Omni's admission. Try clicking a link while a page is loading. Watch this movie - http://homepage.mac.com/rezedit/owd/ OW is great, but its speed & responsiveness are not any of the reasons. The Finder...

    MO drive / media not recognised

    Is the media you're inserting HFS or HFS+ formatted? I have an ancient 128MB SCSI MO drive that works fine.

    Performa 637CD

    I have a 638CD (my first Mac I bought with my own $$) that I plan to 'restore' one of these days - reformat, reinstall from the system restore cd - generally bring it back to the way it was the day I feverishly unpacked it from its box. Everyone needs a hobby :)

    Problem with NSImageView

    you might try resaving as a TIFF. PICT is more or less an alien format to NSImageView.

    If you want 10.1 spoiled for you, read this!

    He's telling us how fast he experienced whatever build he found on hotline to be. The final release could be faster, it could be slower. It's meaningless to judge. Propellerheads software very well may not be aware of it. In case you're not aware, Apple has cut back drastically on OS seeding...

    scanning in osx

    you'd need OSX drivers for it. try that vuescan thing (look on versiontracker)

    Push the Forums back over to the left

    I have to agree. I'm not crazy about the left sidebar area either. I'd rather see the ads on the right, or even placed between message postings. (horizontal ads only between the messages please!)

    Split the Dock!

    more important than different placement is different sizes. you could have docklings & minimized windows at max. size so you could actually see them, and your launcher area smaller, or set to autohide to save space.

    Alternate File Browsing!

    I think at bottom MS had the right idea: integrating the OS/Desktop with the Internet is the way to go, but in typical MS fashion they completely fucked up the execution of the idea. And, to be charitable, they were probably held back by the technology available to them at the time (was WebDAV...

    If you want 10.1 spoiled for you, read this!

    The issue isn't having the information. The issue is being able to use it without being subject to an ironclad Apple suit saying 'such and such illegally misappropriated confidential Apple information blah blah blah' I help people who aren't beyond help. People who bitch that an OS 2 months...

    If you want 10.1 spoiled for you, read this!

    irrelevant. people have the right to posess and discuss final releases. So do Apple's competitors. And how many actually get one? No judgement necessary - you're a thief; you just said so yourself.

    Anyone know how to get around registering?

    well, most of it's 'commercial' software is free & marketed as a feature of the macintosh, rather than a separate application package. They do protect some things; Quicktime Pro, OSX Server & WebObjects for example

    Terminal.app trick?

    not sure how to have specific processes start in specific windows, but to ssave the layout, set things up how you want them (position & size) then go to Shell > Save, choose All Windows from the popup, and check Open thsi file when terminal starts up.

    from http://news.cnet.com/news/0-1006-200-6804697.html : information is generally no longer considered a trade secret once it is made public, even if the disclosure was not authorized So when MS rips off Apple (again) with no fear of legal action, we'll know who to thank.

    macosx won't come up

    I think OSX is trying to gently hint to you that your video card is unsupported. unplug it & try again
