Thanks. One of the first things I did was install a buttload of internet apps. One thing that does bother me is Graffiti. I am used to Newton's "reglar" handwriting recognition...

Ummm, yeah. What Herve said. I think. You've all pretty much covered anything I'd say so I'll keep it short. No.

I have DSL and my Mac is connected 99.99% of the time. I have Norton Peronal Firewall and there are at least 20-30 attempts/day to log in to my computer, file share or, most often, "unknown"... Yesterday I got an email from some "security" software firm (for Windoze of course) stating that...

NO! I remember seeing news about an update but when I searched the sites I thought I saw it on, I couldn't find the link. I tried civ3.com and that's where I saw the "mac version coming soon..." statement. Do you have a link to the update?

which ISP are you using? also, you may want to try posting this in the General Software Support area...

I meant Classic (OS 9), some people seem to need this. I was refering to having the pref set to run classic at startup. It's an option in the Classic Pref pane, so I hear. But I have a feeling you already know that and are just being sarcastic...:D twister, what exactly is set to run at...

I cut down startup time by having the minimum of apps open at startup. There is still a delay as the demon of caca mentioned but just removing stickies and two or three other apps I had set to load at startup sped things up noticeably. I can only imagine if you have classic set to run.

How will OS X in these consoles support gamepads when it's a pain in the ass to get them to work in OS X (if you can)???

If you do purchase one share from a broker you will need to specifically request a paper copy of the share. This could take a while. I purchased a share as a gift and my request took just short of a month. oneshare.com may be faster but I've never used them.

You know, I tried that, but I cannot change some things in the advisor screens. I click on them and nothing happens. Even the things I can click on take minutes to work. For example, I click on government and it takes 45 seconds for the revolution window to open... Am I missing some update...

I love civ3 but have problems with civil diorder... hints? tips?

cool

thanks... Anyone else?

Is anyone using Tax Cut to do their taxes? I CANNOT check status and the "help" that they have offered via email has not worked. They suggested a clean install from the CD and clean install of all updates. No good. Then they suggested running in OS 9 (and doing all the clean installs...

They shouldn't even be allowed to call it X-Files anymore. On a semi-related note: I really liked that show Chris Carter did (ripped off) Harsh Realm. I say "ripped off" cuz I seem to remember fox having to remove the show due to a lawsuit from a comic book creator that claimed that...

The Samsung phones are cool. They came out with the I3000 or whatever but I saw the MXXX (can't remember the #s) on display in Seoul. Nice. They are also making a really cool one but only in Korea. Maybe it'll make it here next year.

I have wireless headphones... My wife would kill me if she could hear my games while she tries to sleep. I also use them with the TV and radio. They have great range. I cannot remember what make they are, I got them from CDNow. I don't know if I'd want to worry about powering your wireless...

whoa. That would bother me ALOT. Just tried mine and even with one of the disk having to spin up it was only 8-9 seconds.

Heh. I know that bugs me a bit too. But, what about people who add to or change their system and aren't as savvy as we all are? What if the system they choose is corrupt or has become so? I guess some logic could be built in so it only scans if it doesn't find what you had already chosen but is...

IBM is pretty good but when I compare my IBM laptop's display (from work) to my wife's TiBook or even my old Bronze PB, there's no comparison. I've messed with the settings on each and the wintel machine never seems to come close to the other two. I thought maybe it was just my perception or...
