    Side-by-side comparison photo of iMac vs. PC?

    A few weeks ago I saw a photo on Apple's website for the new iMac that showed it from the side along with a PC and all it's wires (to show how much less space it takes up). I can't seem to find it anymore and was wondering if someone could post the link if you know what I'm talking about.

    Will my Linksys Print Server (WPS54G) work on hardware besides printers?

I have a Linksys Print Server and was wondering if this only works for printers. I would like to use it to get my Xbox 360 online to use Xbox Live (instead of using the...

    Trouble making a backup copy of iWork '08

    I recently purchased iWork '08 and went to try and make a back DVD of it today. I used Disco and Toast Titanium, but neither worked as I was unable to install it from the backup CD onto my laptop. I'm assuming that Apple has some kind of protection on the disc so this cannot be done, but I have...

    I did some more searching and thanks to this awesome writeup, I resolved the problem by changing the default timeout from 4 minutes to 5 seconds. Now it's super fast again! http://prowiki.isc-csg.upenn.edu/index.php/Solving_timeout_issues_with_ActiveDirectory

    I just updated Microsoft Entourage to the latest update that was posted yesterday and ever since the new mail icon that appears over the Entourage icon in the dock seems to stick. It shows up when all of my mail has been read, and I've tried restarting but that didn't help. Is anybody else...

    Anyway to assign keywords to photos in Full Screen mode in iPhoto?

    I usually take a ton of photos then I select which ones I want to upload to my website by assigning them 5 stars using CMD 5. I've decided to assign them a keyword instead and was wondering if there's anyway to assign a keyword while viewing the photo in full-screen mode like I can do with...
