You can imagine a hospital with 3000+ PC's what the maint. is.

The problem at most companies is that the people using computers have little say as what they get to use. People running the show at compaines like to run with herd. The old adage was no one ever got fired for going with IBM is true. Of course now IBM is out the desktop computer business...

I work in the IT dept of a Children's Hospital. It is interesting that the policy is we do not support or buy Mac's , except for the research people. The top research people demand Mac's and they get them. Thereofore the research leg of the hospital is about 70% Mac and the Hospital is 98%...

I have had decent luck with my powerbooks. I had a problem with my first wallstreet that burned up the second day I had it. It was replaced with another that did the same thing. It was repaired and I have never had a problem with up till this day. I have had a 17 in powerbook since they...

Try the built in vpn clinet. I do not have my mac with me here at work but you need a little instruction I could provide it. It is was very easy to setup and works fine for me. There was I think three pieces of info needed. vpn server ip userid and passwd

* I will have to connect to an Exchange Server. I know it can be done. I have tried to do it where I work because we use exchange. The exchange admin says they would have to enable imap in the exchange server for me to access the mail on my mac. They are not willing to do that. It's a we...

I have used iMovie from its inseption. I have become fairly good with iMovie and wanted to move up to Final Cut Express mostly for the the advanced video filters I wanted to apply to an old 8mm movie and also because the price had dropped. I was just an amatuer before iMovie, I could not even...

I to have never been able to get isync to work with my palm T3. I have tried many times and have finally given up. It worked well with my old handspring. As I have said before. I like the convience of .Mac. I would like it to be cheaper but I would like to know where the cut off would be...

I went to see the photo ipod yesterday at the mac store in Pittsburgh. I have the original iPod and was thinking of upgrading to the photo pod. Let me say first I am 54 and my eyes are not what they used to be. The photos looked good on the color screen but I think the screen is too small...

As far as I am concerned none of the candidates are any good. I am tired of the he said she said campaign tactics. I am concerned with issues not who got out of going to Vietnam because of his connections or who went to Vietnam but was somehow dishonorable. We put these candidates under such...

I am a .Mac user and like it because it is easy. Not everyone wants to become a web developer. I want a nice easy way to produce a web site of photos from iPhoto. Or an easy way to post an iMovie so all my faimily can see. I have used the password protect thing, it seems to work but I...

I am on the fence. I think the photo idea is a good one. To show my photos to people now I either need my laptop or print them all out, which I rarely do. I am worried about the battery no lasting. My new Palm witht color screen battery last's half as long as the black and white screen. The...

I have used word since version 1.0. Then it was a decent word processor. Now I agree it is a bloated mess. I do not like auto formating. I do not like it making a link out of email address's and/or URL's. I use it for compatibility sake with work. I have found the think free works for most...

I have set up a samba share on a solaris box that my macs can access. Should be able to set up a Samba share on your macs that the PC can access. Tcp-wrappers comes installed on the Mac. By using a hosts.allow and hosts.deny files with it you can limit access by ip or dns name.

I have never been able to get my tungsten and powerbook to work either. I went around and around with Palm support. Finally gave up. calliex

The difference is the -R allows chown to go through the whole pgsql directory and change the owner to postgres. Without the -R it just does the top level directory. If you already knew that forgive me. calliex

I think there is a need for a internet based movie store similar to iTMS. The difference would be not to down load it to an iPod type device. But a device that you would hook up to your TV. Something like TiVo I guess. I am not to faimilar with TiVo, but I am told it is hard drive based. I...

I had vpn setup with L2TP and it was working fine. I added a setup to the network window and applied changes and lost all of my vpn setup. Now vpn does not work at all. I go in over my cable modem. I have the right server address, account name and password entered. In the log is the...

I do not know your specfice problem but usually I have found when compliling unix apps check to make sure your path stmt is OK. I have found when compiling things as root I have always have to add certain paths to the path stmt. If the directory in question exists then see if that path is part...

I have the 160 GB triple interface and I am very happy with it. The 800 firewire is very fast. I have had many LaCie drives over the years and have been very happy with them. I had an old 30 Meg drive that bounced off the concrete floor and broke the power supply. I called them and for a...
