    Vector graphics

    well, I've been toying with Inkscape and I have to say I'm impressed. It's obviously flavored by CorelDraw and that's a good think since I'm a... 15?... year user of Corel. Thanks all for the feedback.

    Hi all. I'm looking for a decent vector graphics program akin to CorelDraw for the PC. Anyone have some suggestions? Thanks.

    I need help with a roll over script

    Forgetting the mechanics of the roll over eventing (which is a simple matter of using onMouseOver and onMouseOut) event functions, you have to decide - will you use something sophisticated like XmlHttpResponse object to fetch the data in a background thread in real time (giving you a cool...

    The deed is done

    C# and the .NET platform ROCK. And everything you work on (mostly) will transition to the Mac with Mono 1.7 and Cocoa#. Enjoy!

    Michael Dell: "I would sell OS X on my machines"

    *nods* Another point I made earlier and it's completely valid and right.

    Michael Dell: "I would sell OS X on my machines"

    Good for a giggle. Patently incorrect, false and based on heresay and silliness... but chuckle-worthy for sure. Thank you.

    Bingo. 'Zactly the point I was making. Thank you!

    Apple Trademark "Numbers"

    Nope, you're dead on. Pages seems to be a DTP that can do word processing while Word is a word processor that can do DTP. It's a fine line, but a line, none the less.

    Michael Dell: "I would sell OS X on my machines"

    That is *exactly* one of the points I've been making. Smaller, more controlled = "better".

    Michael Dell: "I would sell OS X on my machines"

    PS... OS/X (which I love, btw, don't think I'm a Mac basher) is far from perfect. Just look in the (Mac OS X System & Mac Software) forum (http://macosx.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=5) here's a sample of the problems found there: Corrupt Java installation fix for 10.3.9 Weird sound...

    batch image resizer other than photoshop

    Get imagemagick. http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php Scriptable because it's a Unix command line set of utilities. Excellent stuff. http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-tools.php

    Michael Dell: "I would sell OS X on my machines"

    I went on to clarify... you underquoted me. No, *being* a user isn't the problem - being able to down and install shit software with spyware and popups is *part of* the problem. Windows isn't a crap OS... the fact that the security in Windows is wide open is 99% of the "spyware" problem...

    Where did wget command go?

    isn't that installed with Fink and, thus, not part of the base Apple OS/X installation?

    iBook/Powerbook as server?

    It's simply not worth the hassles. I did stumble on one thing tho' that *seems* to work. 1) Set your mouse preferences to turn off touch pad while an external mouse is present. 2) Close your lid *while* a USB external mouse is plugged in. 3) yank the cable on the mouse While the lid is...

    Compatible MP3 players for Mac?

    Ok, fair enough - on Windows. That option is not needed on the Mac. That is a viable sticky point. The only highly published issues are the ones involving batteries draining disproportionate to their age and use (aka - shiddy batteries). Can you find the news article, because I'm getting...

    Michael Dell: "I would sell OS X on my machines"

    Now you're just being anti-establishment for the sake of being so. :) Windows is a good product... at times throughout its history. It may not be what you like, but you can't hate Windows for the sake of hating it. That's like hating electricity because you could get shocked or hating water...
