That's right. File icons, comments and the like would be disposed of by FAT32. Worse still, if you place an old OS 9 application on a FAT32 volume, it may well not work again as the resource fork would be flung as well...

What's meant to happen? I had no problems .. other than not understanding a word it!..

You just did it. Besides, people read the article, they take what they want from it. I'm not about to start sub-editing news articles just to make you happy. As I've said countless times before, what may be old news to you may well be new news to someone else. Given that there _was_...

I'd have to wonder what kind of read / write times you're going to get in this scenario. With the mac not doing its thang in its native tongue could cause quite a hit on disk performance...

I probably made a pretty grim account of my experiences with OpenOffice, but I must hasten to add that I have every faith in the many boys & girls working on this project, and I'm sure that they'll iron out these little creases and get the thing in a more refined shape. I have to say, I use...

Yes! Of course you can. What ever application you're using on Windows will allow you to save what you're doing, just the same way as they would when running on a full-blown pc. What you can do -- and this is what I tend to do -- I set up a shared folder within VirtualPC; which can be any...

Weather With You - Crowded House .. chilled, uplifting, classic...

That's a very nice application. I find that Java on OS X improves with every new application I play around with. Apple could do worse than highlight this kind of thing and show just how good a Java citizen OS X really is...

I'd say it's because you're saying: When you should be saying: The double-quotes is sending the dot-path as a literal string. It certainly looks that way, but my ActionScript is -- as Steve Martin as Orin Scrivello said in Little Shop of Horrors: "all rusty 'n' dull!.." :D

I have no such problems with Safari hogging the cpu. But I've noticed that when I switch to Safari or Firefox after I haven't used them for say, more than an hour or so, they take ages to become responsive again with lots of hard drive thrashing. I'm guessing that the system is written...

There may be a firmware updater on the cd, I can't remember off hand. Have a good look through this list and see if your mac is in there. It's always a good idea to update your firmware, but it could well be something else that's acting up...

I would caution against having _too_ many login items. In tests [Mail, Safari, Extensis Suitcase X1 & iTunes], I've found it takes longer to get a usable, responsive mac than it would if I launched the applications manually...

At a guess, you might need a firmware update. Would need more information, first...

It all reads like some spin-off of Mad Max. I know a place like that close to where I live. They don't use money, the local currency is petrol, food and ammunition rounds...

Finding clothes to fit me is a bind. Being as tall as I am, it gets to be a problem finding jeans & trousers with 33-34 inch leg. Also, because I'm well built, finding shirts to fit my neck [18 inch] and chest [58+ inch] gets to be a bit of nightmare. Waist-size .. what can I say? I...

Have you been putting yourself about, Giaguara? Shame on you! :D Yes, sex really does knock the smoke out of me. Only this morning, in fact. Much to the dismay of my girlfriend...

It would have to be pretty customized clock on account of Mars not observing the same hours per day, or the same amount of days per year as Earth...

There's far too many negatives here for any kind of coming together of these two media titans. First of all, there's product overlap. The iPod would clash horribly with the Walkman line of products. The less said about the music stores the better. The computer product line is another...

There's another way of tackling this problem. You need something like the Powergen dialer box. Just plug your phone line into one end of the box and your telephone into the other and hey presto! And the box is free with no fees. Problem is, this is for the UK, but there has to be a...

I tried OpenOffice and I just got the feeling it was going shag my mac to hell and back. I had decided to delete it before I'd finished the installation. I simply wouldn't recommend OpenOffice to anyone right now, not in it's current state. I was reminded of the installer for the Zend...
