I actually love Lynx. If most pages' navigation isn't images, I'd use it more often! Try navigating Apple.com with it! Ewwwww! :D

Really? Hitler was elected to power in Germany by a majority, so are you telling me that he indeed the best leader the Germans could have hoped for? Majority of Germans at the time were also supportive of the Nazis, so the politics of the Nazis must be the best too! If your argument is true...

You'll get the correct file size if you use get info (Command+I), it's only incorrect if you use the finder. It seems the calculated size in the finder is based on the addressing blocks. Just a thought, if you would like to have UFS for web development, can't you just have a small partition...

I have to admit, I prefer the former. The truth is that Safari's "interlaced" or "progressive" nature is much closer to the expectations of World Wide Web's architects. HTTP is a stateless protocol. It fetches one piece of information at a time (this is changing with "pipelining", but you'll...

Have your TRIED to open 20 tabs in Chimera?! Let's consider that an average resolution for a display is 1024x768. Now, let's subtract the dock from the display, so it's now 1024x750. Even if you max out the Chimera window, that's still about 1024x750 of screen space for the browser with the 20...

They should make a "Switcher" ad with him! "...I used to hack with a Windows laptop and I got caught, now I use a PowerBook..." :D

I do like Safari's speed, but the thing that I truly love about Safari is that it uses native Aqua widgets. Although Chimera is a Cocoa app, its Gecko engine doesn't use true Aqua widgets, only a simulation. I finally understood why people love Omniweb despite its shortcoming - its the native...

Mike, It's a feature of iTunes 3. Below is a quote from the iTunes website... http://www.apple.com/itunes/ I really do hope Apple come up with a more elegant solution though.

You mean there are gaps between MP3s ripped from a continuous mix CD? Then, yes. I think it's a well known limitation of iTunes right now. I belive there is an option to rip selected tracks as one continuous MP3 file in iTunes to overcome the issue. It's annoying to me too, since I listen to...

Straight from the horse's mouth... Below is the weblog of Dave Hyatt (original creator of Chimera, and present Safari programmer at Apple). Apparently lots of Safari bugs are being fixed and tackled. It's nice to witness Safari's evolution. http://www.mozillazine.org/weblogs/hyatt/

I do like Safari better than Chimera, and I can assure you, I am not blind. I have to wear glasses, but my prescription is quite minute, thank you. I am quite sick and tired of this Chimera vs. Safari debate. THEY ARE BOTH EXCELLENT PROGRAMS, SO USE THE ONE YOU PREFER AND SHUT THE F*** UP ABOUT...

Uh... Then why does Apple and MS hire developers to work on their OSes? It's a basic rule in software development life cycle that majority of costs (70+%) is actually in support and bug fixes. Software development is actually a never-ending process.

I think your argument is essentially true, but a little simplistic. Software does lend itself to have a higher profit margin, but in your descriptions, you left out developmental and licensing costs. When NeXTSTEP for Intel was released, it was prohibitively expensive as a consumer OS because...

I have to admit that my one major gripe with Safari is that its cache can be way over-zealous. I find that I have to reload page quite often - however, since it's fast enough it hasn't annoyed me too much yet. I did send it in as a bug report to Apple though! Hopefully they'll fix it! ;)

Weird... Maybe it was originally a typo? If you check the 12" and 15" PowerBook specs, they both write at 1x speed too. However, the 15" reads at 6x while the 12" and 17" both reads at 8x. Maybe it is indeed a newer drive in the 12" and 17" but 2x ready perhaps?

Sorry, maybe this isn't the most correct forum for this... I was reading Mike Pinkerton's blog, and it sounds like he is feeling way down and unsure about Chimera's future. If you don't know who Mike Pinkerton is, he is the lead programmer for Chimera. Below if captured from his blog... I...

I used to have access to 4 different Apple Stores (gotta love Southern California)! But now I am attending school in Melbourne, Australia, no more Apple Stores for me! :-( Instead, there are "AppleCentres", which is nothing compared to the Apple Stores. *sigh* Hopefully there will be an...

I agree, I love Safari. I used to be a total Chimera junkie, but now I don't even have it installed on my machine anymore! Safari is now my default browser. I used to actually use my roommate's PC to browse the web because every app is slow as heck. Chimera made it bearable, but it was screen...

I believe you can set which directory on the computer your MP3's are stored. It's under iTunes -> Preferences. I've multitasked like MAD on my TiBook (playing two QuickTime movies simultaneously, playing MP3s on iTunes, compiled code in a transparent Terminal window) all without MP3s or QT...
