    What keeps you from using OS X exclusively

    I'm now only using OS 9 (and I have to boot - Classic doesn't work right) for the TWAIN Scanner of mine through Photoshop 6. I have 7, but when I scan, i have to reboot. As soon as Epson have OS X drivers, I'll never use OS 9. But I'll never delete as you never know when you'll want it....

    Dead Pixels

    When I was working in OZ Apple Centre when i asked an Apple Engineer at Apple HQ, he said 6 pixels. I think that's really crappy though. I'd only buy one if i had it started up in front of me so i can check it first.

    ResExcellence.com killed by Staff

    When I was working in an Apple Centre in Sydney, Australia last year, Apple released an advert in the main paper (Morning Sydney Herald) of the "New Beige iMac"!!! You would not believe how many calls we got asking for one! Their other ads using iMacs side view to create a Sydney Opera...

    iMovie Poor Import Quality

    too true. There are only a handful of graphic cards that can let you do this. Apple desired the editing in iMovie to be non-reliant on the GPU so they made it so the frame rate is preserved (how many pictures a shown each second 29.97 per sec for NTSC) but resolution is dropped. If they...

    What's the plural of mouse??

    I wholeheartedly agree with Boyko, it's Mice. Mouses is sometimes used as an 'accepted false word'. But as far as English is supposed to be used (hmmm - many different versions) it's Mice. Mice, unless......? ;)

    Does everyone realise...

    I thought the Romans were the ones with the whole left handed/sinister thing. Hence the Latin for left actually means sinister, they were about a long time after the babylonians.

    F'ing, bloody, sh'ty Internet Connect. AGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    nice one mate. As for Kids reading this forum. Children should be outside getting muddy, climbing trees, running through fields, looking at farm animals, going for bike rides. Not going on the web to the extent that they check out chat forums. Oh dear. Fair enough, supervised research...

    Does everyone realise...

    ...if someone other than the Swiss invented the clocks and more importantly the Sundial (whoever invented them (Pagans?)), the hands on a clock would go round the other way!!! That's scary.

    hipocracy, double standards, call it what you want

    There's a thread @ MacOSX.com > Other > All Thoughts Non-Technical > Hello everybody, may I cus? that has over 20'000 replies yet moderators whine about 'obscenities' in their threads. What way do you want to play it? After seeing that thread I though that all you guys don't have a...

    F'ing, bloody, sh'ty Internet Connect. AGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    I am rather vexed by the audacious 20 minute delay when one presses the "Connect" button to actually being able to hear the modem dial up. I feel quite perplexed and muddled. But that gentleman, Steve Jobs, he really must pull his proverbial socks up. Where is the OS 10.2 release...

    New Apple & Mac Web Site

    I see you've used a few graphics and formatting straight from Apple's site. Be very careful as they will tear you apart (legally of course) if they get pissed off. My advice: don't plagiarise
