I thought for a while on this one Fryke... lemme explain my point: The whole prediction is based on Apple "raising the bar"... Instead of Superdrives being the higher class drive, the new Ultradrive would be. Instead of X1600 being the best video, the X1900/X1950 would be. When it came...

New "Secret" Leopard Functionality?? Thin Client Support!!! Leopard Server will include a 'Terminal Services' of sorts - Apple will either reuse RDP (probable) or come up with their own display protocol, and allow Macs to run apps remotely off Mac servers. A user will be able to login to...

What would you guys guess the prices would be?

Lets keep our fingers crossed :) I was also going to add a Mac Pro upgrade, but the case would be identical .. the graphics card would be an HDMI / HDCP card - probably the Radeon X1900 or X1950 XTX .... Since the Mac Pro uses a full-powered processor, it'd make sense to see a Core Quad or a...

First Off, I'd like to say that these things are on my wishlist - so therefore Apple MUST BE implementing them :) iMac 17 " Core Duo: Superdrive - $1299.99 Improved Display Technology Improved iSight (faster CMOS sensor) 8x DL SuperDrive ATI Radeon X1600 graphics processor with 128MB...

Clothes limit my ability to type and mouse efficiently :)

915resolution will give you the 1280x600 you are looking for but you had mentioned before to me that Parallels Desktop does not virtualize the MacBook's Intel GMA 950. From all the X config files I've seen, they list the following: HorizSync 28-64 VertRefresh 43-60 If you are deadset on...

It never ceases to amaze me at how you think you know quite a bit, then one day you find something that you never knew existed. I always wanted a way to launch apps from Terminal. I couldn't find a command that would automatically launch an App.. I'd resort to running the executable: $...

In the Input Tab of the Sound Pane - you'll want to check your Input Volume and Mute. If you are STILL getting zero - then I'd ask myself if the mic isn't defective. The reason I'd jump to defective so quick is because I know those mics - they are absolute crap :P

We may only spend 10 minutes mucking around in Windows (in between getting into our apps), but it doesn't mean we live with it and run windows does it ?? :)

So seriously then, what would be a better approach than Finder? Some things to consider: 1) It would have to run as Finder does - not a windowed app; rootless (ie. Finder *IS* the desktop) 2) It would have to remain intuitive, usable, and coherent with the underlying file system (ie. home...

I was perusing Cocoa documentation on Apple's site, and I saw that Cocoa is the modern form of NextStep Framework. Lights one ... alarm bells rang. While I didn't know much about Cocoa, I had heard a great deal about NextStep, OpenStep, and the later GnuStep project. It got me to thinking...

Since its happening on two accounts, something is probably going on with launchd. Check the log files and see if launchd is reporting anything. It may just be a simple permission issue.

I wasn't referring to lame voice recognition that you see now - I'm talking about smart interpretation. Name your mac, ie. "Fred". Then you say, "Fred lets see what's on Digg" .. computer recognizes Digg as a website and takes you there .. "Fred, just the RSS feed" .. boom you are looking...

You mean you shouldn't just toss em into the dishwasher?? :-)

You guys think too small. This is Apple we're talking about. Their Voice recognition and synthesis software has gotten so good, that I think Leopard's secret functionality could very well be "keyboard optional" Imagine his keynote speech when he unveils Leopard on the big screen and says...

Sorry for the late reply - I came across these apps: http://www.pure-mac.com/webcam.html#sitecam Apps that can stream a webcam to the internet.

Your airport on your computer is used to connect to a base station or a router. This will be a little box that will connect to the cable or dsl provider. Do you have one of these? If not, then you may be using a neighbor's signal - you'll need to call an ISP and get them to install an...

Did you try going where I said? Apple -> System Preferences -> Sound Adjust Output volume. When you set that, then restart the computer - does it reset or fix the issue?

My Mac Mini's drive got pooched (only reads DVDs a little bit, spits out CDs instantly). ANYWAYS ... I installed Tiger off of an external usb drive without problems - so it can't be a case of Apple checking the drive firmware. But I'd concur with Fryke - if all DVDs work in this drive except...
