Aww man, you got me all excited to see like a huge desktop pic... and, nothing... it wasn't big, fit more than comfortably on my Cinema Display =)

I got the impression from your first post you were talking about an external monitor as your first line reads "every time I buy a new computer...."

I'm not sure how it works yet with doing a USB printer share on X, or whether or not you can set up an OS X system as a print server, but, if you have a printer capable of ethernet connections (e.g., HP LJ 4050 NT, or anything HP with a JetDirect device), then simply setting up the printer and...

Nice tip, i forgot about that option. Thanks for reminding me!

I thought NU 5.0 had no HFS+ support, why then would you even try using it?

Do we even know if the Dock will support an animation? I mean, the bounces are just icon positioning adjustments, not an actual animation. And, it's the same thing with the hide all move. About the only thing I think might justify as an actual animation is the genie, but i think even that is...

Gino (and others), As to the first part, you are completely correct, I was inded using the wrong expression and thinking backwards. However, not to belabor the point, these things have not been long time Apple OS components, but rather, have been fairly recently added to the OS because of the...

Well, it's a pretty cool idea, but I do agree with Admiral, except on the screen issue. there's nothing that says they'd have to use a flat panel LCD in the system, they could accomplish the saame thingat a reasonible price with a picture tube, but the damn thing would be pretty heavy.

I'm eager to hear them. I used to use BBEdit to code HTML way back in the day, but stopped around the time HTML editors in WYSIWYGs got good enough to actually use and make tweaks. I'm in the process of learning Perl and PHP, so I'd love to know how the latest BBE version stacks up for those...

But, without any details of what TYPE of monitors you're talking about, or what you're using to resize them, or how they are connected, it is very difficult to help.

There is an OS X Flash player included with IE 5.1 Preview. There is no Shockwave player, however. Most of this should be rectified by MWNY.

... okay, i'm only half serious. There are a million and one threads, on here, MacNN, MacOSXHints, Os X Zone, and a few others, all talking about how to get the fastest performance out of X. Just do a search, you'll find all you want to know. But, just to be a gracious guy, here are a few...

Uhmmm... since at least 7.5, wow, that a big difference from 8. As for contextual menus, isn't that what you're talking about with the Apple menu? The only way that functions as any kind of serious "interface" (and I use that term as you did, but oh so very loosely) is if you have...

Mistaken or not, I'm glad you said something, I DLed the app and I love it, much nicer then the show clock in menu bar function in system preferences and not all the crap added with Menu Strip, I also like the calendar. I think there are other functions, but I haven't looked, so playing around...

I guess I was completely mistaken... apologies!

It's funny, but, most of the "features" you support remaining the same and claim have been around a "long, long" time, were only implemented in the OS as of version 8. Whihc, if memory serves, was the first release after Jobs took the post as interim-CEO/director (whatever they called the...

Unless I'm completely mistaken, he's running Menu Strip, which is available on your iDisk under /Software/Mac OS X/What's New/

Am I missing something here? none of what you said will do anything to being able to create more than one Dock. In fact, besides as a safety precaution for someone looking to fiddle with the options in the plist file, your suggestion as is has no merit in this discussion. Did you intend...

Maybe I'm completely misunderstanding what your asking, but from your post it would appear that you are just thinking too much. In previous Mac OSes you could put Applications anywhere you wanted, but you had to guide them there. And, if you wanted any of the OS apps in the same location you...

Okay folks, I just wanted to keep this thing going, and i was happily playing around with iTools web page features, so here are a few of my desktop shots. nothing ovely amazing, but fun to look at just the same! http://homepage.mac.com/plaidpjs/Personal.html
