Office v.X comes with an X version of the windows media player that installs a plugin for IE that works *great* with CNet. The video looks a lot better than the real player stuff. Don't know if this is because the .wma's are better, or M$ pays CNet to make it better. You're gonna have to...

//really small twerpy guys with one HUGE testicle. FaRuvius

a) this pertains to Windows 2000, which was released before OS X. b) the key element here is that the alpha blending is hardware accelerated. Now why can't Apple do that? :confused: FaRuvius

40,000 posts in the Mac community discussions, AND I GOT IT!!!!!!!!!:D :D FaRuvius

This is true, but I like being able to see people's signatures. It allows for clever and witty comments, also to see who posted if you missed looking to the left, or it was a long post and their name/avatar is off the screen. I just think it is silly when the signatures are longer than the...

One of the staple "mac" things seems to be to have your current computing machinery listed(in detail) within one's signature. The numbers of people doing this here are growing. I have nothing against these signatures, but some of them are getting out of hand. Its a little ridiculous when...

Is the most important part of these stores. Also the selling of much Mac software. When I visited the store in McLean, VA I saw so many software titles that I wanted to buy. I knew about most of them, but just seeing them on a shelf reminded me of their existence, and that I wanted it...

try "YES" instead of just 'y' FaRuvius

Use that $7500 to get 2 titaniums :D :D you will have a 30" screen! And maya on one, lightwave on the other! FaRuvius

No. The GameCube uses a powerPC chip in conjuction with a GPU specially made by ATI. In short, the more important aspect of this is the graphics code. How easy would it be to write code that can compile for the ATI chip and other chips?(geforce, etc) While most of the PC chips and...

How about having a TEST SERVER. So that you can alter the appearance of the site without subjecting all the viewers to that hideous shade of puke green you just tried? (10:48pm EST ;) ) FaRuvius

How many people are going to be hitting the site? I cannot speak for FileMaker, but Apache will spawn a httpd daemon for each connection. Each daemon will consume a tiny bit of your RAM. Are we talking 10,000 page views a month? or 10,000 page views a day? If you are running off of an...

Interestingly, the only time that Windows becomes unstable for me is WHEN I use Morpheus and other networking applications. Windows doesn't like having lots of network traffic run through it. FaRuvius

My login screen has always had a blue background. And since mine is blue, and I'm always right, the stripey background is wrong. :D FaRuvius

The new color scheme is too conflicting. It is hard on the eyes. The blue is too dark, and the yellows too light. The older orange, while shocking to some at first, was much more mellow. The yellow and blue theme is a little too close to the color choices of MacNN ; and THEIR shades are...

Carsten's little app is awesome, and makes the mouse tracking alot faster. At first I thought it had crashed my machine, cause with any movement of the mouse, I couldn't see a pointer. But then I realized that the pointer was just moviing so fast that I couldn't see it. This has allowed...

Yah, thats an amazing board. With a whole *one* post. And funny, it doesn't have anything to do with Mac Gaming. Good luck to yah! FaRuvius

Adobe has said from the BEGINNING that all of their apps would appear on OS X according to that application's regular development cycle. This means that each app will appear on OS X when the next major version is ready. There are business and development reasons for doing the application...

OpenDoc was an idea that was really ahead of its time, and was pretty much destined for failure due to the capitalist/corporate nature of software development. But now that open source and free software (free as in speech, not as in beer) are much more welcomed in the corporate world, we...

You can't buy a system WITHOUT the parts you are talking about, with the exception of the CD-RW, as your system may come with a DVD-rom. You may be able to replace or add your parts: CD-RW: is it internal or external? IDE or USB or firewire? Check on Apple's site for a list of drives that...
