Have a look on versiontracker for a thing called Textwielder. It's very very useful indeed... Services are something new to OSX, and OS9 didn't really have anything like it, so it's going to take a while before people start taking advantage of them I think (it's unusual for anyone to even...

Actually, that's not a bad idea... Watch this space.... Don't talk to me about cocktails, Ed. Was my boss's 30th birthday, and we had cocktails at his house. God, I felt rough this morning... I ended up having a massive beer fight with his wife-to-be and got completely soaked through. And...

I'm sure we've done this once... Anyway, mine are: Hallowe'en The Evil Dead Casablanca (I'm an old romantic softie really) This Is Spinal Tap Blue Velvet (although I have to agree with Gwailo that Mulholland Drive is great, I need to see it a couple more times) Memento...

Yup, can I just reiterate what everyone else has said - you shouldn't feel like any questions are stupid. Whilst it may seem like a very different platform to start with, it's mainly a matter of mindset. You know that not-very-ggod CLint Eastwood movie Firefox, where he has to think in Russian...

*gingerly pokes ulrik in the side of the head in an unsuccessful attempt to wake him* *pokes ulrik slightly harder. still no dice* *throws ice bucket over ulrik, who stirs very slightly* *draws amusing additions to ulrik's face with permanent marker* Ulrik!! there's your beer. And if...

Yeah, the scroll-window-whilst-dragging thing works. But that's not really anything to do with spring-loaded folders (although spring-loaded folders would be a pain if you couldn't do that). The best thing about spring-loaded folders was/will be the way they clean up after themselves, so in...

Just about... there you go. I've put an umbrella in it to make it classier. macguy & xoot, I've noticed that you'd have far fewer posts if you stopped posting about the fact that you post too much. I personally couldn't give a monkeys about the fact that you have the ability to click 'Post...

Depends what machine you have. If it's one of the ones since Apple removed the audio input, then you'll need something to get the sound into your machine. The cheapest solution for this that I could find is the Griffin iMic. Other things are available, but unless you're interested in recording...

24 - A series starring 80's wunderkind Kiefer 'son-of-Donald' Sutherland, playing an FBI agent who is trying to stop a presidential assassination on the same day his daughter is kidnapped. That's a very VERY basic plot outline, but it's the kind of show where it isn't really possible to explain...

I'm loving it, but because I'm in the UK we're only up to 10am. So please!! no spoilers or anything!! Good game of poker last night. But too much whisky, I'm afraid. That didn't help when a server crashed and Oracle failed this morning at 6am....

Yeah, but how can you be sure that the bit you sampled is going to be representative of everything? You have to sample LOTS.

...heavy day at work on Friday. Then some friends who don't usually go out decided they were going out after all, so I had to join them. And people kept buying me drinks!! And of course barmen are supposed to drink. Otherwise how can they properly advise you on the best thing for you to...

I think I fell down my stairs on Friday night. But I'm not sure. I have bruises and I don't know where they came from.

OK, didn't really put my point across very clearly, or indeed accurately. I shouldn't have said 'currently available'. What i was sort of trying to say was that most of the machines currently out there, being used by people don't support it - just look at the number of people on the forums...

I got mine in December and I wouldn't be without it. I haven't experienced any problems with it at all - froze it once, but a reset sorted that out. Phatsharpie - don't let one bad report stop you getting one. If this was a serious design flaw I think we'd be hearing far more about it. Esp...

Andy, I think part of the confusion might be that the point you appear to be making , ie isn't really what the title of the thread suggests. You appear to be advocating something similar to the Mac clones that were briefly available. This isn't licencing OSX, it's licencing the chip...

According to the register then definitely. There's a good little round-up of what developers using the version they were given think, and in there they comment that it's a lot faster. Considering (from what I can glean) that most of the currently available Mac product line has graphics cards...

cheers bernie. That's a really useful idea. I notice that they've moved the entire site. For continued amusement, point yer browsers here and check out the addendums. This is my favourite....

I've purposefully not been getting involved in this conversation, but I just have to duck in here and ask - did anyone save the text of the original article that started this all off? the original link way back at the top of the thread is returning a 404 now and I want to show it to one of my...
