How does a person change the Finder icon located in the dock? Changing icons for various applications was easy enough to do for a newbie, but changing the Finder icon has me stumped.

I got my 1Ghz TiBook in December, and really enjoy it. Stable, reasonably fast, has UNIX without dual booting, and it can burn DVD's. However, there are a few programs I use in Windoze and just can't find the same thing for the Mac. (Really like Picture2Exe) I think I miss that one the most...

If I run a VPN client from within VirtualPC and get my VPN connection to the office, can I use various applications/tools from within OS X ? (SSH, X applications, etc) I can't find a OS X version of the Nortel VPN client. This means either buying the Nortel client for OS 9.X or running the...

I thought it was slow because the harware I was running it on was outdated. Are you saying it will be slow running on current hardware and running the latest version of Virtual PC?
