Yay, now I can Tiger update. Maybe I should do it now. Gotta back up my downloads folder first just in case.

MS does play nice with Apple to prevent becoming a monopoly. However, they dominate the computer game market and they know it. They'll most likely never release Direct X for OSX.

sooo, what would be done about that infected java file?

Actually, I found that using a simple CSS file to block ads, while isnt as good as Pithhelmet, still blocks enough to make me not bother using Pithhelmet and thus enjoy a more stable Safari. Maybe you should look into that.

yes, its a legal copy. I got it through the uptodate program. whats pacifist? if its on the Panther CD, shouldnt it be on the Tiger CD? and where is it on the Panther CD, I dont remember seeing it. also, would it install all in a batch, or just bits and pieces, because I dont really care...

my brother has it at RIT is that why people who distribute things online through irc rather than bt want the person involved to be on an edu rather than a regular isp, because its cheaper and faster?

Simple question. I think I may do a clean install of tiger after all once .1 comes out. But then I'll lose iLife, wont I? Any way to fix that? And unrelated: why does everybody keep saying to clone your hd on a backup hd. Not everybody has one just lying around.

macosxhints mentioned something about getting finder to search by name, but quite a few pages in. i guess just search the site for spotlight related articles. macosxhints is ok to mention, right? I mean, i saw Fryke do it...

ghost: what about for people who dont have external hard drives or speak technobabble?

mmm. I hope i can get that in college.

Mac seems designed for graphics, movie, or music professionals. I'm just a casual end user. This is my college laptop. Web browsing, email, word processing, dvd watching, cd burning, chatting, the occasional game-playing, and if I ever get back into doing it, maybe even some photoshop tinkering...

I actually did build my own custom PC. It'd be nice if you could install OSX on something like that, rather than depending on their own PowerMacs. I actually first noticed the "safely remove" thing when I had to play iPod transfer from my mac to my pc. But its still a bother that if I dont...

but I'm on a laptop. I'd like my trackpad to have 2 buttons built in rather than one.

I've actually sound this mac to be more inintuative. Disk images? Have to unmount my usb drive? No right click? Spotlight that doesnt search by name? Plus, there's less software, less games, less upgradeability, and the fact that everything is proprietary and expensive. And not to insult...

ok.... just because Jobs is a rich stuck up brat doesnt mean we shouldnt have one.

Well I'll just keep waiting. Panther isnt giving me any issues, and its not like that Tiger CD is going anywhere.

there's no reason apple mice shouldnt be two button, besides the horrible excuse people like to pull called "tradition".

or maybe Haley is a hippie.

excuse me for not wanting to void my warentee by hacking my computer apart. and atleast with PCs, I can build my own instead of having to deal with apple proprietary issues. wintel also tends to be cheaper.

Ugh, LOTR humor, spare me... Anyway, I think i actually prefer Windows computers. More upgradability, more programs, and despite the badness of IE, more sites work for it. Though Firefox is better. Firefox for PC is far superior to Safari IMHO, but Firefox for Mac is terrible. But there are...
