    Star Wars Aoc

    Huh? Did you just disagree with yourself? Oh wait! I see. You're right. #s 6 and 7 did taint the last part. AND, I really hated the whole C3PO head/body mismatch. Now come on, wouldn't he need an ADC/DVI adapter at least to put his head on a battle droid and vice versa:D

    Unacceptable

    From today's macintouch: --Kirk McElhearn notes a new Apple promotion: "Word is starting to circulate in Europe about an Apple buy-back promotion. Apple will take old computers and offer from 200 to 400 Euros off a new G4. The Apple Russia site already shows this, but none of the other...

    Star Wars Aoc

    I agree. However, for me, the last 40 minutes or so made me forget about all the crap that came before - until you brought it up... Lucas really does need to loosen up a bit and let someone - ANYONE - else write, at least, the dialogue.

    Book Review: Macintosh...The Naked Truth

    just finished it. I can't say it rocks... There were some interesting parts, but they were few and far between. It was a chore to get through all of his parenthetical comments (I don't think there was a paragraph without AT LEAST one, often UNfunny, parenthetical comment). See! I just did it...

    Technote on copy protected cd's

    exactly. You are completely in the clear. I was just commenting on what seemed to be a distinction between something being easy or difficult in order to run afoul of copyright laws. There is no distinction. I mean how easy is it to set up a camcorder to tape attack of the clones and sell the...

    Technote on copy protected cd's

    actually the limited copies must be for personal use and/or backup purposes. You cannot make money on it. Difficulty is not really the issue. Money is. The software distributors make money (or take money away from the copyright owners) from the distribution and use of their software.

    iTunes idea

    are you sure? I know I've seen that happen, but it's always been flaky for me... sometimes it works and sometimes when I go back to it the songs that are there aren't REALLY there, if you know what i mean - the tracks are listed but it informs me I must insert the CD or some crap. Maybe this is...

    More advertising

    you can still make an "informative" ad entertaining... for example: a poor slob in a MS shop gets a last minute job he must complete for a client meeting/presentation at 6AM the next morning. He takes the windows disk from his boss and says, I'll do it on my Mac tonight... <shocked look on...

    Letter to Steve Jobs

    I understand the "bad" feelings this has created - mean a -better- machine for less $ and all - but, really, depending on what it is you do, you're not going to notice a difference in your dual 800 and a dual 1G... In my experience, the way you "optimize" your computer and the OS, has a...

    apple should host a RTCW server. :)

    make one / host one yourself... I fail to see how this would be any big PR coup for Apple and you know we would need a whole new forum just for people to complain about lost connections/how slow it is/what Apple is or is not doing correctly or incorrectly...ugh. I'd rather see them make insanely...

    Scrolling in menus with scroll-wheel

    I'm going to nab a logitech "thumb ball" two button scrollable mouse from the office (it's all PC here except me and a couple other attorneys and we're unsupported and need to use our compaq's for "real office work.") Do you think this will work? It's the silver one with red ball and borg-esque...

    I've got myself a 10GB iPod.

    I'm surprised it took so long. I got mine in what I remember must have been a week and a half or so even shipped from Taiwan - and I splurged for the engraving (be sure to make ABSOLUTELY sure you have spelled everything just as you want it, my buddy's has a typo - his own fault heh heh). One...

    I've got myself a 10GB iPod.

    I got my 10G iPod (inscribed) several weeks ago. I promptly synched it and had all my music at my fingertips (and some files I need to take back and forth from work). I then had shoulder surgery and the iPod was a life saver! I was in hospital for 3 days and would have gone insane (despite the...

    iTunes idea

    where and when did you buy the offending CD. I'd also need the label, maker and the place that actually burned the CDs if you can get that info... Once i get back to the office after my surgery recovery time (around the 16th), i can check on an idea i have...

    About Web Browsers....

    and... standards evolve. I am not talking about stagnation. like 'plex said. take a look at w3c. Having standards IN NO WAY implies any lack of creativity or innovation. Push borders all you want. If it's cool it will be a standard and people should code using that standard. The...
