I don't belive that it will allow you to play wma files with any sort of DRM on them.

You should ask your admins at work which protocols they're using on the Server. Is the office all Mac or a mixed environment? If they're using Windows File Sharing then you'll be connecting using samba (ie, the smb:// prefix). If they're using AFP then you'll use the prefix afp:// (which is...

I had a MacPlus as a kid. In high school I had Windows 3.1. I couldn't name my files anything coherent. It really, really upset me. :D

This link has a download of Aladdin Expander (ie Stuffit) 5.5 as a .hqx file. It'll fit on a floppy (494KB) and you should be able to uncompress it with your web browser.

To change the computer's 'name' go to System Preferences and choose the Sharing preference panel. There you'll see a field for 'Computer Name."

Okay, if you're using System 7.5 then Open Transport is definitely installed and you should have no problems networking it. For Ethernet connections you need to configure the TCP/IP control panel. For dial-up connections you need to configure the TCP/IP, PPP and Modem control panels...

Wow, that's a pretty old system. Hope you don't judge the modern Mac experience based on a system from the early 1990s. ;) 1. I don't believe that Mac OS 7.1 came with Open Transport pre-installed. You'll have to install it yourself. I believe that Open Transport 1.2 will run on 7.1, but...

As someone else asked, what file types are you talking about? Most should be cross platform, but one problem you may be having is if the file extensions aren't being appended... (ie, you have a text file but there is no .txt at the end). More info would be helpful. One of the problems you...

The video card is a GeForce FX 5200 with 64 MB of RAM.

I found this shareware contextual menu plugin: Move Items X. Haven't used it, so I can't vouch for it. I'd like to be able to do this from the keyboard as well.

Just had the privilege of reinstalling my Dual 1.8 GHz G5 with system 10.4. (thrashed my HD, corrupted the volume header file, recovered it but decided to wipe the drive and start fresh after removing data files). The new installation is thus: 2 partitions: 1 20GB system partition 1...

...poking around and the Core Macs? Intel Macs? (what do we call these things?) are using HFS+.

I was reading up on EFI on wikipedia and came across this statement: If this is _true_ what does this mean for HFS+?

I'd love to see them add the functionality to the contextual menu. But let's just call it Move (the *nix command is mv afterall (ditto would just be silly)).

I understand that they're using EFI.

Anybody know if the new MacBook or iMac will target boot?

Ah I see that the keynote will be made available later today. Thanks for the link.

Is the keynote not broadcast this year?

jball-- Great review. I'm going to forward it on. It's a shame that Apple doesn't do APOs.

No problem. ;)
