    System folder tries to open files

    Since there ain't a mail app for X [yet] that meets my demands, I'm still using Outlook Express in Classic to do my mail stuff. Unfortunately, this week it started doin' weird things... Everytime I doubleclick on email attachments, Outlook Express tries to open them with my OS 9 System folder...

    iTunes and CPU Usage

    Have u ever tried to play a game like Tony Hawks Pro Skater while listening to mp3's? On Mac OS X this ain't a problem. The Music plays without any glitches, and Tony Hawks does so too! Both at the same time! On a PC, doin the same thing will result in a snappy and noisy music experience, as...

    Read this!!

    I heard that the dock can cause this when it is located on the right side of the desktop. OS X tries to realign the icons so that they won't be overlapped by the dock.

    VPC Test Drive

    I'm not trying to judge the VPC's programmers skills, I'm just saying that they haven't done a good job with the VPC Testdrive yet. BTW, VPC for OS X is carbonized. There are a lot of things which show that it ain't a native cocoa app. Just move VPCs windows around. As long as u drag the...

    VPC Test Drive

    Actually, the VPC programmers aren't yet doin a great job. They've just taken the OS 9 VPC and carbonized it for OS X. Thats not a big deal. VPC under OS 9 just rocked. It wuz even fast enough to let me play carmageddon 1 on it. Now since I am on OS X, VPC is even slower than the old VPC 3.0...

    VPC Test Drive

    I don't think its a good idea to upgrade to VPC 4 Testdrive. I installed it on my iMac DV SE 500 wit OS X 10.1.1, and it is soooo pretty damn slow that its not possible to work with it at all. Hopefully the final OS X version will have much more improved speed... :(

    AppleTalk hickups under OS X

    It happens when copying files from my OS X iMac to the OS 9 Macs. Most notably, it only happens when trying to copy files wit longer filenames than 31 characters. When trying to do this, a box saying "error -39" appears on my screen. On lucky days, i can just click "ok" and continue working. On...

    AppleTalk hickups under OS X

    Sometimes, OS X 10.1.1 completely hangs up when trying to copy files over an AppleTalk network. Its not a kernel panic, just a complete mouse freeze. Remote login also won't work after the OS X freezed, so theres nothing left than to press the restart button :( It only happens like once in...
