    Give me a BREAK

    Maxebb - this is not the fault of OS X, but of the (stupid) Internet Explorer 5.1 preview release. I highly reccomend using OmniWeb. It is the best browser out there for any platform. The only problem with it is lack of plug-ins, etc., but the more that we support them, the more this browser...

    Give me a BREAK

    I just don't get it. My friend actually has LESS ram than you, 198 megs, and the OS rocks on it. It's really fast, the menus, the dock, everything is snappy. Like I said, almost identical to my G4 in terms of getting around the OS itself. Are you running any huge Classic apps that are...

    Give me a BREAK

    My best friend has OS X on his Graphite iBook with 256 megs of ram, same setup, and it runs VERY fast, every bit as fast as my G4/450 desktop for most common tasks. But he installed the developer's kit. There is a little-known bug that the OS won't optimize itself UNLESS you install the...

    Hmmm this might be a problem related to not being logged in as root. Which is something that I just learned how to do today but have yet to actually do. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

    So far... So good... So what??

    The new OS really kicks ass. I am running a G4/450 Graphite tower, with 384 megs of ram and enough storage for several small nations. So far it's the best thing ever. I really have no complaints. Photoshop has some funky mouse behavior when moving layers around. But Photoshop will be...

    Sounds in OS X? Request for a tip!

    I've been meaning to do this but haven't yet. I'm on my stupid PC at work right now running Win 2K, but I do know at least how to do this _in theory_ In your root directory there's a folder called System, and a folder called Library inside of that. I think inside there, you'll find a folder...
