The CD drive in my old workhorse (Wallstreet PowerBook) is dying, I can't read CDs anymore. Now, I need to install 10.2, I have image files of the install CDs (and a legitimate copy of it, too, in case you're think of the p-word now). I don't have any external CD drives (neither SCSI nor...

I think a lot of the so called dangers that we are afraid of today and today's parents are worried about their children getting exposed to are overemphasized by the media because they need stories that sell and nothing sells as good as fear. I have grown up in the 80's, my family did have a TV...

Multipartism is not systemically better than bipartism. I live in a multipartist country, where all parties can be positioned on a bipolar scale (from x-left to x-right). Therefore, there is no more political diversity in my country than in yours. Plus, the actual American party system (money...

I read earlier someone said we have been messing with the Middle East for decades now. Guess what! They (the Middle East) have been battling longer than most countries were around/ organized! it was atually me who said that. i do agree that "they" have been battling around for a long time...

Hope they won't tinker around too much since VPC 6 is pretty good in it's current version. I'm not too worried about MS killing VPC for the Mac (even on the long run), I'm just afraid of MS's lack of interest in good, stable products. Their approach to software development could easily break...

Anyone tried Extigy with 10.2.4 that just got released?

The goods that you're talking about are primarily targeted at so-called first world countries. People in developing countries can't afford these products anyway.

Now that's a noble cause to go on the streets for! Are there any "Ban Comic Sans" rallies planned? :D

Boycott the whole industry! Use public transport where possible, start car sharing pools... You'd have to boycott all oil companies to be sure not to support any kind of terrorism, be it state terror (need I name the most obvious ones?), terrorist organizations in the actual meaning of the word...

"Data Rescue" saved my live about 2 months ago. If a disk/partition doesn't mount anymore it'll extract all the data for you onto another disk/partition. I got about 98% of the data back and I am certain that the 2% that were lost actually got screwed up by Norton (which I unfortunately ran...

It'll be enormous! And you can make it even bigger! It will not be limited to Europe, there's rallies on this side of the Atlantic, too. As well as in Asia. To everybody here in their twenties/early thirties: Remind your parents of what they went on the streets for 30 years ago and bring them...

That's absolutely correct. The Middle East was first destabilized by Britain (it was their common practice to create unstable national entities in order too keep strong opposition from developing). Iraq is an artificial creation of British imperialism. From early 20th century until the late 50s...

Wow! I always knew there were some differences, but this is beyond good and evil!:D I hope HDTV (or whatever will be the next generation TV format) is going to eliminate this mess!

Doesn't France have a different TV format? N-America has NTSC, the rest of Europe has PAL and France has some other format if I'm not totally mistaken. So I don't think you can interchange the French and the German version.

Get G-Force Standalone. That should do the trick. It's OS 9 only so far but it's more than worth having to boot into OS 9! You can get it at http://www.55ware.com I recommend careful use when on hallucinatory drugs :D

There's one thing about email clients that people should realize: Standards compliance (RFC compliance) is even worse that in web browsers. And there's probably 3 times more email clients than web browsers available to choose from on any platform. In my experience the best you can get is "XYZ...

And to reduce DN hassles. I'd strongly advise them to change registrar...if they manage to get their domain out of Networksolutions "grip" :D I've experience with various registrars (including moving domains from one registrar to another) and nothing gets even anywhere close to the treatment...

That's what I intend to do. But first I'll try to get them to accept my credit card. ***Anyone got any experience in turboing at the Apple online store?*** If that doesn't help I'll try to get one at the Apple store in Buffalo. Bit since I'm here with a work permit which imposes certain...

Has anyone here experimented with overclocking a Wallstreet II PowerBook? I am wondering about the results, how far you could push it and how much of a hassle it is (I know how to do it, I have looked at the page of that Japanese OC wiz) for someone with soldering experience (not SMD, though)...

I might be mistaken but I strongly believe this option refers to the OS only. They write "local" in brackets after "Tastatur" (keyboard) if you choose the int'l english version on the Swiss Apple online store. I know OS X comes for different languages on the same CDs but OS 9 doesn't. And that...
