Thanks fellas. I was hoping someone might have a take-apart link to hand, but I'll have a look round and see what I can find. The flies are those tiny little black slivers of insect which pitch up in droves when a storm's brewing. I assumed they were just skinny enough to slip through a natural...

Hi y'all - I've got a 17" G5 iMac (aluminium base, not dome) and I've got some tiny little storm flies behind the screen which show up on the display, like they're sitting on the surface of the display itself. It's a second hand machine with no warranty for me to void, so is it a...

likewise have only succeeded mac-pc using AIM, but I agree, it's pisspoor and grinds to a halt after a short while. nothing else has even remotely worked. bring on skype video for us lot, that's what I say

[customary "searched for this but nothing came up, sorry if i'm mistaken" disclaimer] I've just bought an airport express base station and have it hooked up and working effortlessly as I type. I've created a closed network, have built in firewall switched on and i'm using 10.3.9 on a 12"...

Thanks for the replies, scruffy and Doug. I don't actually want to run windoze on my iBook, though thanks for the pointers as to how I could if I chose to. I still have a now ancient HP notebook running 98 and a CF card for moving stuff between the two. And I think that's as close to windows as...

Bang on! They're certainly better than anything I've come up with

Here's hoping smilies go the way of this thread. And the dodo. I don't wanna link directly to it because I don't know what their policy is, but the forum for the band Lemon Jelly Googled here is really stylish, has not a graphic smiley in sight, and everyone seems to understand each other...

Ted Witcher, have you managed it yet? A previous poster mentioned the Reset Safari option. Have you tried it (Safari menu, Reset Safari)? Apologies if you have and I missed the ref. Alternatively, in Safari - View, Bookmarks Bar. On Bookmarks Bar click book icon, far left. In the Bookmarks...

EDIT: think my message killed the thread, so I've bumped off the message

Indeed. In the unlikely event that anyone can find more hideous examples, I promise never to smile again. Though it clearly takes a quite extraordinary talent to transform the human smile into something so naff. It's the facial equivalent of a turd falling into my drink.

Ah, yes, you did mention that, didn't you. That was about when the Merlot really started to kick in. ¡Estupido y borracho! No hay esperanza.

It's the same point Qion made when this subject came up in another thread, and a fair one, I'm sure. Perhaps we could award different language sections only to the most widely spoken languages - kind of a 'tough tits for the minorities' policy. Obviously I'm kidding. I think the idea was if...

Oh, and as if by magic: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/4984138.stm Nahhh - some Frenchman claiming credit? Everyone knows it was Forrest Gump who invented the smiley face! Perhaps Walmart should only be allowed to trademark it if it's still got a .357 Magnum round embedded in it. EDIT: I...
