Euuuuh, ok let me give answer to all these questions. The Macintosh Interchange format (actually it is a FAT32 format) is not Macintosh optimized. It requires slightly more time to do reads and writes to disk. The Mac OS Plus format behaves faster. My USB 2.0/Firewire drive is mainly used...

Hehehe ;) actually I need a FAT32, the why I explain it before. However it is now becoming more and more of a challenge.

I have not tried with DosBOX; I just wonder if I will be able to execute a format command over a drive under this emulator, which is basically intended for gaming. However I tried with Virtual PC but since external logical drives are considered Network drives, Windows will not allow me a remote...

Yes I know Revolution, but somehow I tried the demo version and couldn't get a thing to work. Wether I'm stupid or it is not the kind of environment I'm referring to (probably it's a bit of both). However I'll take a look at the appz you've made yourself. You'll have news from me sometime in a...

Zammy-Sam is right. Yet I do not find Windows XP well documented enough (or is it me?). That's why I tend to AnalogX Proxy, which is very simple. Btw, AnalogX Proxy accepts HTTP, HTTPs, POP3, SMPT, FTP, ICQ, and many orthers. You should give it a try, it rocks!

Yes I can. But I can't make one of them to be MSDOS (fat16) like, and the other one Mac OS Plus like. At least I couldn't find out how. By the way Zammy... do you live here, in this forum? :D

Sorry, it is again my stupid Spanish roots. "Que acepte virtualmente cualquier camara" means "that accepts practically any camera".

mindben I don't think you can't compare the sub-notebok in the picture you post with other notebooks such as Toshiba Libretto, Sony VAIO and this one from the picture that opened this thread. I've used both a Libretto and a VAIO for a while and they are very much usable. You just have to get...

I'm getting hungry...

There's also a very easy way (assuming that you have a TCP/IP network estabilished). Get AnalogX Proxy from www.analogx.com and follow the instructions that come with it. In 5 to 10 minutes you'll be going like a champ. The only requisite is that you know how to set your proxy settings on...

I browsed through FutureBASIC and TNT Basic (I'm amazed to find so many basic-like programming languages in the Cocoa environment), but finally I found a software somewhat like the one I was looking for. It is called Metal, and it is its version 1.7. It seems that it hasn't received updates...

Exactly that is what I mean. But in a partition, not in a whole disk (this last I can do with disk-utilities).

Does Yahoo! Messenger work with other webcams besides the highly expensive iSight? (please stick to Yahoo! Messenger, iChat doesn't cover my needs since it does not support HTTP proxies). Overmore, does Yahoo! Messenger accept virtually any webcam? Any advice?

Uuuh, I don't know where this picture came from but - and now I'm getting a little paranoid, perhaps I've read too many Pelikan Affair like novels - wouldn't it be that Apple is studying consumer reactions to see wether it is worth or not to release a machine like this by spreading this...

Uh, no no. I want to have an external drive with 2 partitions. One of them has to be a MSDOS partition. I can do that with fdisk in Linux; how can I do that under Mac OS X?.

Note: it is true that - according to my needs - formating everything in MS-DOS (Macintosh Interchange) format will permit me to use the drive in both PCs and Macs; however and as long as I know, I will lose performance and I often use this drive for video post-processing.

Entonces supongo que este es el momento de plantearse comprarse un libro...

I have an external drive with 2 partitions. I want one of them to be Mac OS (that is easy) but I want the other one to have PC format so my PC can read files in the drive. I must do this in my Mac - not in a PC. DiskUtilities won't allow me to make one MS-DOS partition (it lets me format the...

I've never tried Applescript (ooohps). I'm very much acquainted with PHP and mySQL. I have a basic C knowledge. I master DHTML (JavaScript) too. I have done some software with PocketC (for PalmOS), Microsoft ASP, EthosBasic & DarkBasic (this 2 are interesting easy-to-learn programming...

Thank you for your answer, but TrueBASIC is not what I'm looking for. Even though TrueBASIC is an old-BASIC-style w/compiler programming language, it is far behind in the kind of features I'm seeking (Chipmunk BASIC has better features although it can't be compiled, and it is free). I'm...
