The discussion supposedly is about websites running away from Quicktime. Were I a content producer or distributor, I would certainly be extremely concerned about users' uptake of the player app. I think the discussion (yes, mostly Windows-based, but, well, that's where the vast, vast majority...

"Spoof", maybe? I dunno. After your screenshot I couldn't resist. (come on, it really does look like you were saying the widget was the manager. Yes, we can barely see the translucent window, but still =) I started to mention plans to go to www.petitiononline.com and start a campaign...

Yes. I don't really think that "Le temps par telephone" means "disable all widgets". =)

Actually, I guess the installer mentions that it will install Quicktime (and at least now allows the user to turn "Make Quicktime my Default Player" off, which is on by default)...However, it looks like they've eliminated the Quicktime-free installer altogether?? At the very least they're...

I don't know much about what's happening in the content serving side of the business, but my personal experience is that users tend to *hate* the Quicktime player. Most users I talk to (admittedly mostly Windows users) avoid the Quicktime player like the plague. Not because of anti-Apple...

Wow, Apple's REALLY getting inconsistent with their UI. The new Widget Manager looks like some weird Swiss French Teletext system. It looks HORRIBLE. I might as well just hook up a crappy PAL TV to my G5 and wait for the weather to eventually scroll by every 10 minutes or so. Maybe it...

I wish you guys would quit posting links without explaining what it is we're supposed to be seeing. Every time I see one of these "hey, lookee here!" posts, I half expect to click and find the latest goatse.cx mirror.

I probably would use it in the Finder more (i.e. ever) if there was a good way to search specifically by file name. Has anyone ever figured out a way to do that? Otherwise, I tend to get too many hits for it to be particularly useful. If there was a semi-powerful syntax for doing searches...

I actually posted this in another thread but it would be more appropriate here: - X11 still won't accept connections on anything but through ssh (maybe), which is pretty broken - ssh has HUGE delays when connecting now (60 seconds or more, even after turning off IPv6 (which is another bug -...

I hope it's coming soon. 10.4.1 is turning out to be even more buggy for me than 10.4.0, which definitely wasn't great (worse for me so far than 10.3, and these are fresh installs!) - X11 still won't accept connections on anything but through ssh (maybe), which is pretty broken - ssh has...

Yes, I'd suspect as well that your brother was using a drive that's capable of READING dvds, just not burning them. Have him go to System Profiler, you should be able to see there what the drive is (and if Disk Utility reads the Tiger disk as anything larger than 800MB, then he has a DVD DRIVE.

I recall also reading recommendations that external drives be disconnected during install. I don't believe that this was anything like the Firewire drive debacle with 10.3.0, but I recall (in release notes somewhere, perhaps?) that it implied that in some cases, external drives could block...

Please make sure you file a bug report with Apple on this! It's amazing how few bugs are actually reported, let alone ones that are reproducible...

...Don't you already have that? Stickies.app isn't new in Tiger. It seems like people only want to use the Dashboard stickies because Dashboard is a new and cool toy.

For some reason I was hoping there'd be a 2-button bluetooth mouse. Oh well =)

Because they're legitimately low on stock? I can't imagine it's a very high-volume seller... The same reason that your iMac got delayed, perhaps??

Oh yeah? I'm waiting until iTunes *6*, where hopefully they'll add new, NEW features.

It's definitely much faster on both of my G5s.

This probably isn't your problem, but thought I'd mention one interesting gotcha I noticed with the weather applet. Be careful about adding in city names without the state/territory name, postal code, etc. You may not end up getting the city that you expect. I have a lot of family in...
