    How Many MP3's do you have?

    Hey, I'm not bragging or anything, I'm just wondering how people manage to amass music collections of 10,000 songs and still be able to afford their pretty Macs. Like I said before, I usually download MP3's, but I also buy CD's from time to time (which are unripped and will add immensely to the...

    Do not eat iPod shuffle.

    Did anyone notice the 20" display price drop?

    No no, I've given you the start... now you get to crunch some numbers yourself. Pengu: it's simple geometry, 4:3 screens have more space than 16:10 screens with the same diagonal length. That's why I'm a little disappointed that the 17" iMac I'll be getting is the same height as my current...

    Mac mini

    Of course, the rumor mills said the iPod mini would be anywhere from $100-200, so when Apple actually introduced it at $250, it was halfway between what people expected it to be and what they already could get. This time around, the Mac mini was rumored to be priced at $500, which turned out...

    What does the Mac Mini mean for Sonnet?

    Excellent post; excellent observations. Computers get faster, but many aspects do not — such as load time, boot time, the time it takes to write this post... etc.

    Whats on your desktop?

    That's not your Powerbook, is it? On my desktop, there's a lot of clutter, plus an iMac, a couple external drives, a lamp, some books... ;)

    Errr ... Megaphone?

    Yet there is a very tiny saddle in that little box in which the mini ships. Odd? You decide... on the next Ripley's: Believe It or Not. :D ::alien::

    iWork, worth it ?

    Exactly. My post was geared toward a situation like mdnky's, where he was going to go "play" with iWork (note how it's iWork and not iPlay ;)). I'm saying, if you want to play, play by bringing your work along. :)

    Free space on Mac mini hard drive

    My external 40 GB Firewire hard drive has a capacity of 37.26 GB. I would expect the same from a mini.

    Mac mini

    Recall a Macworld Expo twelve moons into history, when Apple introduced another product named mini. Recall the beratement it received from many (including yours truly) about the price vs. what it offered. Recall sales statistics from Apple throughout these twelve moons, showing the mini...

    Multiple instances of Terminal?

    Sure you can. It will clone the process you pass to it, which I believe is the UID of the program you want to clone. man fork :)

    Missing Documents Folder

    Wow, that's strange. Have you tried some of the normal troubleshooting techniques, like repairing permissions, repairing the hard drive in Disk Utility, rebooting the computer?

    How Many MP3's do you have?

    That's a lot of Phish. I'm more of a meat eater, myself. ;) Should we start saying how we got the songs on our computers? Or would some of us have to plead the 5th?

    Did anyone notice the 20" display price drop?

    Well, let's do the math (which is something I've been meaning to do anyway). The Apple monitors have a 16:10 dimensional ratio, which simplifies to 8:5. That means the base is a multiple of 8 while the height is a multiple of 5. Using the ratios of the base and height of a triangle to the...

    Mac Mini as a server ?

    Why go to all the trouble of obtaining a G3, upgrading it, updating it, and then configuring the software when you can get a mini, plug it in, configure the software and be done with it for only a little more money? Sure, you can do all that to get the G3 working (and hey, I might actually...

    Multiple instances of Terminal?

    If you want to run multiple shells in one instance of Terminal, then yeah, what Gia and Viro said. But if you want to run multiple instances, so you have more than one icon of Terminal in your Dock, then look up the fork command.
