    Bush Pisses Me OFF

    Dude: You can't do that man, these guys, they're like me, they're pacifists. Smokey was a conscientous objector. Walter: You know, dude, I myself once dabbled in pacifism, not in 'Nam of course. Dude: And you know, he's got emotional problems, man. Walter: You mean, beyond pacifism?

    MicroSloth Windose XP report

    This quote from the above mentioned article would concern me more than anything else: "After a person registers Windows XP over the phone or through Microsoft's Web site, the software giant locks the operating system to that person's PC hardware configuration. If the customer changes or...

    A good multibutton mouse for X ?

    I found the buttons on that MS mouse to be a little too easy to press down. I was constantly pressing them inadvertently. That might have more to do with my tendency to drink half a pot of strong coffee every morning, though. ;)

    A good multibutton mouse for X ?

    I've used many multiple-button mouses (mice? I never have found out which you're supposed to use) over the years and I will agree with those who posted before: Kensington and Logitech are hard to beat. Having said that, I'm currently using the Wacom Graphire2. It's a $99 high-quality...

    I can't play divx movies!!

    Actually, the better_readme.rtf says, "ffmpeg.component drag in your /Library/QuickTime folder or cp -r ffmpeg.component /Library/QuickTime" Which essentially is trying to tell you to move the file named "ffmpeg.component" to the folder names "QuickTime" that is located inside the...

    What's your favorite OS X screensaver module?

    I agree with HyperLiteG4. I'm using Old Glory and it looks really nice! Although I have to admit I had been using Plasma Tunnel until recently.

    What do you miss least about Mac OS 9?

    This isn't a poll because I didn't want to limit the responses, but I find myself really loving X and not missing 9 at all. I would have to say I miss least the annoying habit 9 had of bringing my entire computer to a halt everytime even one application went haywire. Stability, although...

    What minimize effect do you prefer?

    Genie is prettier, no doubt, but scale is what I use. It's much faster. I'd like to see something like the POOF effect used when removing items from the dock. I probably wouldn't use it much, but it would be cool to see. :)

    Transparent Dock

    Don't be frustrated if this program doesn't work automatically for you. It wouldn't accept what I am aboslutely positive was my admin password. I can assure you I typed in the correct password and typed it correctly, but Transparent Dock came back with an equally assured error message saying...

    In future...

    Please learn from the mistakes of Saturday's delivery errors. I know in my town alone, at one location, there were no less than 50 upset Apple faithful roaming around Fry's when the upgrade CDs didn't arrive as promised. I know we may have expected too much, but there was plenty of time to...
