Hi Mr. Fryke, There was a rumor back when dot mac went from free to fee based, (I think it was posted to Usenet) that dot mac was being contracted out to a firm that ran it on windows boxes. Is there any truth to that rumor? Most firms are proud of what they do, and proud of their choice of...

Thank you for replying. Just curious. What kind of hardware comprises this network of servers and, geogaphically, where are they located?

Any apple employee, Hi, What kind of hardware comprises the .Mac server, and where (geographic location) is it located? Another question, if I may? What forum software does this http://discussions.info.apple.com/ run on? It looks similiar to Jelsoft vBulletin, (especially the...

We used to thumb our noses at Pee Cee users 'cause we could run PC crap on our Macs via SoftPC and Virtual PC while all they could run was their beloved MS-DOS and windoze. Looks like the PC community is getting the last laugh (courtesy of Steve Jobs). Apple Employee, did it not even occur...

Good morning Fryke, What code name was assigned to the System 10.4.2 upgrader? Thanks much, Adonsa

Good morning, RacerX, Doesn't the PowerPC series chip contain code develop by jointly by Motorola, Apple, and IBM (not just IBM by itself)? Isn't it mostly Motorola developed code? And, yeah, I was in a chagrin when that happened. PC users were laughing their asses off. Although it...

Fellow mackers, If it contains an Intel chip, it won't be worthy of the name Macintosh. It'll be an abomination. Recommendation to Apple - name it something else. Do any of Apple's board members or other leadership ever read this website? Regards, Adonsa

and more. These are some of the [excellence in computing] components that give us the one reason to prefer a Mac - vast superority over the PC "industry standard." It's not just the system. It's vastly superior hardware. At work I have to use Dell Pee Cee's. A few years ago I ordered 9...

Hi serpicolugnut, thanks for replying. I'm getting back to you with a partial reply. I'm using windoze XP right now, and have been using various version of windoze since 2.0 and they all suck. Going to the dark side because I disagree with Steve Jobs is like throwing the baby out with the...

I may get flamed for posting this. Flame me if you must. There is only one reason to buy a Mac. To have vast superiority over the IBM-PC-AT-Clone / now Windows-Intel Industry Standard. To go to the dark side of computing by placing an intel chip inside a Mac is a putrification of...

Hi, Anyone had any experiences using a Konica Minolta laser printer, particularly the model 2400W color laser? Long name is: KONICA MINOLTA 5250220-100 magicolor 2400W 20 ppm Black 2400 x 600 dpi Color LaserJet Laser Printer Any comments will be most appreciated, particularly whether or...

High probability this is the cause. Speed Download 2.3.5, and failure to upgrade it to 3.0.9 before running Safari. Safari Help - Installed Plugins - Hmmm. Speed download listed. Restarted between each of the below steps: 1. Removed everything Pithhelmet and SIMBL - crashes persisted...

Safari also crashes when closing tabs (tabbed browsing). Tried disabling all of Pithhelmets capabilities but problem persists. Bummer.

Hi DeltaMac, and others thanks for your replies, It did let me do it once, but problem persisted. I'm a Pithhelmet user, maybe that's it. Pithhelmet is more important than clicking off crashes when quitting Safari; maybe I could come up with an Applescript script to just click cancel for me...

Hi, Anyone know why Safari crashes so much under System Tiger? For the most part it crashes upon quitting, sometimes randomly, but always upon quitting Safari. I installed System Tiger to a virgin hard drive, then let the installer move my files over. Applescript scripts no longer run...

Hi, Considering a processor upgrade for G-4 667, particularly the OWC Mercury G4 Extreme 1.2 Ghz or the Sonnet Encore/ST 1.2 Ghz. 2-3 years ago MacWorld rated the OWC Mercury number 1, although that might have been when System 10 first appeared. Will much appreciate any...

Dear Moderator, Sorry to be offensive. At the time I posted it, I was using a hotel computer (IBM-PC Clone) which displayed the font sizes small and dim. Obviously I misconstrued the resultant font size on other computers. I posted it bold so it would be more readable - obviously my...

Why didn't the beta testers notice any of these issues with over 3 dozen System Tiger components? Or were there any beta testers?

OK, I found it. CD Drive users will have to go to http://www.apple.com/macosx/upgrade/ download the PDF form, then fill out the form send em $10 mail it to Apple and wait for the CDs. Then they damn sure won't get upgraded on Apr 29, more like a week or so later. What a knee jerk. Apple...
