Yoshi, You were responding to someone else, but this has happened to me! I'm getting this MySQL error. Not only that, I've managed to completely hose my uid 501 preferences....shebang! However, I can still do some admin functions, login, etc. and have created a new user with Admin...

Hmm. Is this poll about post counts really just a ploy to get your post counts up?:D

I think I solved this problem by adding my mac username to the URL like this: http://127.0.0.1/~username But I could be wrong. I'm at work so I'll have to check when I get home...

I'm a Reference Librarian at UMBC. If you like technology, finding answers, and you never want to stop learning, librarianship is a great profession. There are definitely some wack-jobs in it, but I suspect you'll never escape that, even if you work for yourself. The profession is graying...

Here's the link for the Expo: just to save everyone a few mouse clicks: http://www.macworldexpo.com/macworldexpo/v31/index.cvn

Spinach. Why is Catherine Zeta-Jones with Michael Douglas? Yeeech.

a left-pinned, auto-hiding, bouncing fool am I.

Wow, what a great idea! I can't wait to see what comes of it.

I like 'em both. Great idea. -e

Uh....no. Unless I just reacted. If I had time to think about it, I don't know that I would take a bullet for anyone. Sheesh. Now nobody here'll want to be my friend.

Ah, in a perfect world. When I launch XDarwin and then open terminal and type 'gimp' I get this: Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by C library Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C Gdk-WARNING **: can not set locale modifiers Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open...

Thx karavite, I downloaded XDarwin w/o a hitch. Stuffit unpacked it all and it looks like I'm ready to go. I can double-click the icon and launch XDarwin...yes! However, I've reached (passed, really) my frustration threshold for the day, so I think I'll just take a powder and figure out...

Okay, I'm missing something HUGE here. I've used fink to download gimp, XFree86, and related files. I've picoed the .cshrc and all that good stuff. Everything seems to be it good shape and ready to go. Now how do I start/launch it? OMG, I'm so embarrassed. *sigh*

Real age: 31 Mac age: let's see, we had Apple ][s in my 9th grade computer class...we were all writing BASIC back then (and not well, I'll tell you that). I bought my first Mac (PM 7200) 7 years ago, but have used it mostly for Internet access, and MS Office-type stuff...although I did have...

TextEdit.

This is a fascinating study of brand-imaging and the sociological manifestations of distinction. Anybody read that book where the guy travels to the future and all the people above ground (The Tens) are law abiding and rule conscious whereas all the people underground (The Xes) are free...

Doesn't he? :D

:( I really like calling it OSX. But RacerTen and SimTen, among others, are pretty convincing (although some are downright nasty...but that's another issue). While I'm no Mac expert I have been a Mac user for some time (can I call my iBook a Mac? Or is it an Apple?) so I don't appreciate...

Congrats Vic!! Who'd of thought you'd make it?!? Seriously, cheers.

And after you build one at BlingBling's place, how about a store north of Baltimore? You'd catch all the wonderful folks in and around Baltimore (colleges, colleges, everywhere), plus many people from Harrisburg, PA and all sorts of folks in between. And maybe even some from Philly.
