Judging by their site, they should get a new web designer.

Hm? :)

The Pro apps will all be universal in March. The Xserves are likely to be the last Macs to get Intel processors because the G5 is ideal for scientific computation, a real workhorse in clusters. The Core Duo is never going to approach the G5 in vector processing performance. Thus, Mac OS X...

The newline characters are most likely stored in the database, but are not shown in a HTML context where newline characters are and should be ignored. The cleanest approach to this is to run nl2br() on the text string to display, after fetching it from the database. <br /> will be inserted...

It wasn't presented by Steve Jobs anyway. I don't know how it was done, but someone saved the keynote as a file and made a torrent.

You have to lay off that *nix conservatism and be more open to other practices if you want to develop Mac OS X GUIs. vi is appropriate for coding cross-platform command line programs, not complex object oriented GUIs. Xcode and Interface Builder is the way to go, even for *nix...

Indeed, Apple acquired Claris in 1991 and later renamed their ClarisWorks office suite to AppleWorks. It's still available in the Apple Store, but the whole application is really quite outdated.

It's possible. The most straightforward way would be to use an Intel based computer as a host and communicate with the PPC processor via the PCI bus. I can't imagine Apple spending development resources on that, however. Some Quadras (early 90s Macs) came with an optional DOS card. It was...

It's most likely one of those cross-border travel lottery scams. They set up automated phone bots to call people in western European countries and get credit card information, etc to e.g. "confirm your identity". See http://travel.state.gov/travel/tips/brochures/brochures_1216.html and...

It's obviously quite slow on older Macs, but not defective. It's certainly done to make people replace their computer.

I'm on a dual 1.8 GHz with a GeForce FX 5200 GPU with 64 MB VRAM. It runs quite acceptably except from the fancy-schmancy visual effects in the interface. The GPU in the iMac is faster, if I remember correctly.

Partially in desperation after discovering my Mac wouldn't install or run Aperture, I figured out a solution to both and want to share it with others wanting to use Aperture on your more than a year old Mac that Apple wants you to replace. You need HexEdit and BBEdit or TextWrangler. To...

Which model? Beige desktop, beige tower or blue/white tower?

Last time I touched Mac OS X Server was 10.2, which stored apache virtual hosts in some funny proprietary binary format :D May I ask what you're using Mac OS X Server for? I can't think of any other practical use than as a network boot and file sharing server.

Most of the components are assembled in Asian countries anyway. Probably everything except the processor. And keep in mind Microsoft do much of their software development in India. I personally think the right way to improve workers' conditions is to demand imported goods to have been...

I left that part out because it's merely a theory; though it's a known fact that the North European countries including Iceland and Greenland were warmer in the viking age. Please ask yourself whether it's plausible to draw that "no offense" line to that level of contradiction. You do not...

Yes, the settlements on Greenland were established long before the other European colonies and were not subject to the Monroe doctrine; Denmark had no ongoing colonization at that time. Greenland had already been part of Norway and later the Norwegian-Danish union for about 1000 years before the...

It should certainly be possible in Mac OS X. I believe Exposé actually handles full screen contexts as windows, so F9 and F10 should give you a "window view" of any application that doesn't override those keys.
