    Filemaker to buy Daylite??

    Dude, again you're just ramdomly speculating. I know this forum does include rumours but please can you post stuff that actually has some sort of basis. The jelly bean thread is obviously rather silly but it does make a point. Speculate away if you like but put it in the opinions forum if you...

    UK iTunes Music store IS NOW LIVE

    Actually there's two versions of Final Straw on there (UK and US). Chill out. If you remember the US store, there were a lot of tracks added within the first few months. I'm a little annoyed that there's a lot of stuff listed that isn't up yet but I am excited by the things listed (like...

    UK iTunes Music store IS NOW LIVE

    Only Final Straw for now though, would be nice to get Polar Bears and When It's Over on too but we'll have to wait for a lot of indie label stuff. Noticed a live session on there too. I've only bought the new Pixies track so far. Was very excited about finding the first Kaito album but you...

    UK iTunes Music store IS NOW LIVE

    Ah there we go, Sleater Kinney, Mclusky, Pearl Jam, Chilis, Trash Can Sinatras, Soundgarden, Chicks On Speed, Tullycraft, Cadallaca (yuss!), Roni Size, Roots Manuva, all listed but not displaying any albums yet. I think they've just struck a deal and haven't got them uploaded, or Apple are just...

    UK iTunes Music store IS NOW LIVE

    I think there's a bunch of stuff to be uploaded. I was browsing through alternative and found a bunch of bands that are on Indie labels in the UK and the US that are listed but don't show up any albums yet. For example Aereogramme and Arab Strap from Chemikal Underground (Glasgow) and Deerhoof...

    UK iTunes Music Store advert

    Bad news. Apple have to give a good deal to AIM, otherwise they (and us) will miss out on a lot of important music. The comment from Six Degrees is worrying too as there are also a lot of US labels that have successful bands in the UK and are handled by the likes of Domino, Matador and Beggar's...

    UK iTunes Music Store advert

    I wouldn't think it would be the agency's fault, probably the company distributing the posters, but, woo!

    Apple "OpenSource" and some thoughts

    Instances of "kewl": 5 Mod -1 "unkewl" You have some points there but OSX is not a free OS. You can complain all you like about closed source etc. but Apple needs control of it's OS to develop it the way it wants to and sell its hardware. I think the fact that such a large portion of OSX...

    iTMS Europe on June 15

    Rumours have suggested between 89p and £1.09, so 99p is probably to be expected. If my numbers are right then iTMS will cost about 50% more than in the US (and that's with VAT taken into account). The new Airport Express also works out at nearly 25% more expensive (again, including...

    New PowerMac G5's!!!!

    What the hell is Koolaid anyway?! We're all disappointed by the lack of a 3GHz machine so far but the fact the G5 line is all dual now, as well as the other recent (and imminent) Good Things, I think Apple has done pretty well this last year. Intel and AMD haven't been doing quite what they...

    BBC Article about Safari security hole

    On Friday, Apple warned of a flaw in its Safari web browser which could allow malicious code to be run on a machine without a user's permission. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/3741871.stm Also here: http://uk.news.yahoo.com/040524/152/euboy.html Seems to be a bit short on...

    Resetting root on an SGI Indy

    I know this isn't a Mac UNIX question but any help would be appreciated. I got an Indy last year but I've only just managed to get a sync-on-green monitor to run it with. Anyway, I've managed to upgrade the RAM and disable the PROM password, and the system seems to be booting up ok. However I...

    PearPC - PowerPC Architecture Emulator for PC = Mac OS X on a PC

    According the the docs it emulates something like a G3, although he's working on Altivec. Obviously it's at a fairly early stage with a few bugs etc. but it's quite exciting stuff. And while this isn't maybe quite as useful, remember that it's an architecture emulator so you can run various BSDs...

    [HOWTO] - Setup PHP & MySQL

    I installed PHP again recently with the centropy installer but after a while it just stops working. This happened to me a while ago but I thought I'd give it another go since I had the latest version of Panther with the newest centropy install. As far as I remember, PHP just stopped working, I'm...

    No free DL outside NA

    I noticed that too. Makes sense though; remember that even if Apple are giving the song away, they don't have a licence to distribute it outside the US.

    iTMS: price n restrictions too high!!

    Cd pricing isn't as clear cut as many people think, especially if you're not American. Remember that in the UK (even considering sales tax), CDs cost way way more than in the US. You guys have it good, very good. And while it annoys me that the retail cost is so high here (and to an extent in...
