Well, no one has mentioned "Inpple" yet - sounds like something that grows on the surface of your skin where the sun doesn't shine. GOSH! I've been sitting on this Inpple for a week now and it hasn't gone away! Do you think I should see a doctor?

Fryke, I am very biased towards PowerPC and the older Apple ways of developing a Macintosh because I have had experience using windows PCs in the business world. In fact EVERY modern computer I've ever own was an Apple, whether it was an Apple IIgs, PowerBook 520c, Blue & White G3, and my new...

Irrespective of the logo, I still think that the switch to Intel is a bad idea, and I think that IBM will eventually get its act together and produce high-end PowerPC G5 chips worthy of laptop functionality. I have a 3.2 GHz Intel Pentium based IBM PC (REAL IBM!) at work and it is a real dawg...

If you want a more fully functional version of OpenOffice, try NeoOffice (http://www.neooffice.org/). I use it mostly for wordprocessing, especially for my resume since it has by default a tighter-lined font (more lines/page than MS Word), plus click one button and your document is printed to...

Yes, Mail is set to check for new mail every 15 minutes. The issue is that I know the new mail is in the account because Mozilla 1.7.10 downloads the mail in its email client.

Google allows you to access your GMail account through POP. The issue I'm having is that Mail will not consistently access my Google GMail account. I can send a message to myself (GMail) from my yahoo and comcast accounts, but when other people send me email, Mail doesn't seem to download the...

Ya know, what if Steve Jobs had an account here on MacOSX.com? What would you say to that? How would you recognize him if he did? You think he'd actually use an alias associated with Apple? HA! Perhaps, just maybe, you may have had an unknown conversation with him....maybe, and maybe NOT...

A while ago I purchased a macosx.com hosting account and would like to know if there is anyway I can see a log of who visits my web page and when. Does this require a CGI script? Reading a file in my account? I could not find a file in my account that would indicate this information...

When I purchased Mac OS X Tiger, it naturally came on a DVD, and my Blue & White G3 didn't have a DVD drive from which to startup, so I installed Tiger (Installation DVD) on my iPod from my external DVD, booted from my iPod, and installed Tiger on to my hard drive from the iPod. This was not an...

Does anyone know if PDF files with bookmarks can be created with the built-in Quartz PDF in Mac OS X? I create PDFs all the time, but would like to have bookmarked files. chemistry_geek

I found a site on the internet that offers downloads of movies that are now in the public domain. Below is the link for the site: http://www.archive.org/details/feature_films I have a few of these movies, "Night of the Living Dead," "Carnival of Souls," etc... in MPEG2 format (2 to 4 GB)...

Having worked in the chemical industry for the last ten years, and working for various companies that not only produce materials, products, and perform research, I speak from *REAL* experience. Chemetall-Oakite, formerly a division of Metallgesellschaft, a large German company specializing in...

Consider a Mini Cooper, they're owned/made by BMW now. Small car, good fuel mileage, good quality, and iPod connectivity. http://www.miniusa.com/crm/load_mini.jsp If I was considering a small European car, I would definately look at the Mini Cooper. I don't like Japanese/Asian brands...

You could also try MacTheRipper for ripper DVDs and DVD2oneX for compressing them to lower quality video and size. After all, how good does the quality need to be to watch on a 2.5 inch screen? Plus, it's not like you'll be needing Dolby Surround Sound either. You can use VLC to watch any...

Pereus, Yes, you seem to have some of the symptoms of hypoglycemia. I no longer drink sugar colas except for Coke Classic maybe 6 times a year - I can't handle the sleepy/drowsy feeling for 2 hours afterward very well. I too have the black floaties, and once in a while I see the white...

A Lesson From Personal Experience I was drinking a full pot of coffee per day, for that last several years, of my own design that included thick viscous leaded Starbucks French Roast, ground nutmeg, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, honey, and 2% reduced fat milk until I experienced something...

I just got Comcast broadband internet access today and I need to know how to configure the firewall. I have a Motorola SB5120 SURFboard Cable Modem, Power Mac G5, Dual 2.7 GHz, 2.5 GB RAM, and Mac OS X 10.4.2. Do I just click "Start" in Sharing for the Firewall? Any special configurations...

Lunar living likely will not happen in our lifetime, our childrens' lifetimes, or our grandchildrens' lifetimes...because of several factors: energy is becomming extremely expensive, the greater divide in human society of the haves and have-nots (again, educational, material, and energy resource...
