    Will flash performance (both design and playback) improve with OSX?

    Did any of you attend this last UCON even in NYC? I vaguely recall seeing them offer a 'glimpse' of Flash running under X. Although they were branding the address as "Splash". I believe that it was during the Sneak Peek sessions, where the speakers were all dressed up in superhero...

    Evolution?

    Has anybody heard of any attempts to bring Ximian's Evolution to OS X? Not only would this be extremely cool... but it's perfect for it (Darwin & Evolution... har)! Any takers? anton

    [HOWTO] - Add items to finder window toolbars

    OK... first off, apologies to anyone who's mentioned this before... I discovered this while playing around in my folders - You can drag any folder up to the window's titlebar, hold it there for a sec, and the icons shift over - making room for your new alias! It even retains cusom icons...

    A look inside both the G4 and the Pentium IV chips...

    For the hardware geeks out there: http://www.arstechnica.com/cpu/01q2/p4andg4e/p4andg4e-1.html Check it out... some of the technotalk gets thick for some, but there's great stuff in there that helps people understand that mHz is not everything to having a great processor. One of my...

    New hardware or upgrade current HW ???

    ok... if we really want to talk about clusters, then feast your eyes on this: http://cfp.ist.utl.pt/golp/epp/index.htm very droolworthy. As far as the decision goes to get a new machine? I just upgraded my box recently, and made similar decisions. I look at it as being very relative to...

    Email app problem, it keeps downloading email forever & cannot quit

    I wrote 'Eudora' and I really meant to type 'Entourage'! Jeeez... I'm tired. Ok.... Eudora is written for os X, but I don't care for the interface, but try it anyway... you never know. and Entourage is the big brother to Outlook Express. Not yet native for X.... :( but soon (hopefully):)

    Unicode & greek & web pages gggrrrr!!!!

    unicode. Man... if only that sh!t worked right, the way it was meant to, the first time you did it, right?? This runs parallel with a little gig that Jeffrey Zeldman is working with called WaSP. They normally cover stuff like CSS and XML and DHTML, but it's all about making it work...

    Handwriting look like grafitti ???

    Well...... Maybe if I had copywritten my handwriting in the early-mid 90's anticipating such a glorious windfall. But, alas... such is not the case. :( Some opportunities come, some opportunities go... In the meantime, I may have to move along with my life. There is an idea here...

    Email app problem, it keeps downloading email forever & cannot quit

    When you say "downloading forever", that seems a bit vague to me... forever is a long time, after all... Let me ask you this: Is it actually downloading file after file after file? Like, somebody sent you a thousand messages? or, does it seem to be just attempting to connect and login...

    ..another obvious one, re: screenshots this time.

    Did you know that while you're in classic, MOST of the old ways of grabbing screenshots work fine!!!! Great ways to do a quicky grab. For those who don't know them, here's a quick run-through... cmnd-shift-3 == full shot to file in / cmnd-shift-4 == selection shot to a file in / capsLock...

    The adventures of X, Classic, Photoshop 6, and a new studio display.

    Alrighty... here's a minor problem that I've come accross: When running Photoshop 6 under classic in X, I have found a way to crash os X solid (do not pass GO, do not collect $200)... I have a new 17" studio display with a standard resolution of 1280x1024. When I shift-drag to draw a line...

    Is there anyway to Obtain Classic?

    single-button mouse?? YEEEESH!!! Took me almost two solid weeks before I found myself a nice Logitech. I have just become waaaaay to used to having three/four buttons and a wheel right there at my fingertips. But that's from force of habit. I guess I didn't notice some of that stuff...

    Quake 3 for OS X

    curious.... I have a puzzle to solve. I'm quite certain that I installed it correctly... doesn't exactly take a rocket scientest anyway... but this is the first time I've seen a complete system lockup under X for me. No kernal panic, no error code... just solid freeze. consistantly. It's...

    Is there anyway to Obtain Classic?

    if we want something for free... and it absolutely positively has to have an "X" in it... then go get LinuxPPC, YellowDog, or whatever dist. of Linux, download MOL (mac on linux), put 8.6 on it, or whatever disc you DO happen to own, and move on. You'll have a pretty similar configuration, at...

    Handwriting look like grafitti ???

    I feel kinda jipped. My handwriting looked like graffitti LONG before I ever owned a palm. Does that make me a trend-setter? or just another geek with bad handwriting.....

    xfree86 tutorial?

    Just in case you don't get macAddict magazine... I just got my newest issue yesterday (August 2001, no. 60), there's an xFree86 tutorial in the How To section... fairly detailed too, I might add. Even to the point of running Xwindows instead of Aqua. good luck, it's not *the* most...
