    iPod & Mac Advertising

    I quite like the iPod ads as we see them in the UK, I do wish they'd show the device itself a little more, even if it was a shot at the end. I wish they'd never got U2 involved though, it put me off the iPod for years. MAKE BONO HISTORY

    OSx86: Are You Serious?

    Toppers? Interesting, sounds like an expression used in sexual contexts which only friends of Dorothy will get... but I digress... Far be it from me to disagree with my web developer friend above, but only Mac-myopics are saying that Intel Macs will be Macs and not PCs. You could call...

    [How To] get the Dashboard to update faster.

    ooh, lovely. Thankyou my good man, bloody cooking here today in York - even passing wind can be a sweat inducing effort, I guess Leeds will be just as hot ;-) Love the WINDOWS thing.

    [How To] get the Dashboard to update faster.

    OK, I've trawled the net for hours and found no trace of such an application, can you post a link?

    Macosx.com Mug (was: Shame on MacOSX for Emailing Me)

    Big letters. Big man. Small fuse. For **** sake man, get a grip, it's just an email about some T-Shirts they've made. I didn't want one, but I didn't throw a dicky fit over it. Perhaps you need some attention, nothing wrong with that I guess, we all need some from time to time. So I'll...

    Reactions to Vista

    Actually, in a conversation I had earlier, I asked someone what their thoughts were about Vista, the reply was the best so far.. "One word. Nausea." Qion, like your site, but a GUI runs on an OS, not vice versa ;)

    What Features would you like to see in Leopard?

    I find that Finder crashes more than any other App, so I'd like to see a completely redesigned Finder or something new, proper consistent file/image previews in icons, icons which don't corrupt once every 24 hours, which plague my mac despite several re-installs. THEMES, I LOVE brushed metal and...

    Reactions to Vista

    It looks like a rip-off. Also looks like the kind of dark style Apple have started using on their site. I wish Microsoft would surprise me JUST ONCE by innovating instead of buying out others and ripping off ideas. The only half decent product they've EVER made is Office for the Mac. Apart...

    Reactions to Vista

    Transparent windows? I can't believe people are hyping over windows which are only half visible. I may be wrong but I'm sure I've seen transparent windows appear on my Mac before, not that I gave it much thought.

    Mini Mac

    I SERIOUSLY, SERIOUSLY do NOT recommend you buy it. If the guy has no feedback, DO NOT PART WITH YOUR MONEY. If they are suppling software in the way you describe, it ILLEGAL and a VIOLATION of eBay's terms. DO NOT BUY FROM HIM. Buy from Apple, for a few quid more. You NEED 512MB MINIMUM...

    Yet another Quicktime Problem

    Did a re-install of the OS, all working again.

    Yet another Quicktime Problem

    I have re-installed Quicktime 7, and have tried opening one of the files, I got a message saying: Some necessary QuickTime software is missing. It may be available on the QuickTime Web site. If you have a dialup connection to the internet, make sure it is active, then click the Continue...

    Yet another Quicktime Problem

    Today when I switched my Mac on, it has suddenly stopped playing audio from AV recorded from my digital camcorder. Everything else plays fine, the video files play fine on VLC and mplayerX. It's been working without flaw right up until last night on Quicktime 7. I have repaired permissions...

    ISoft?

    Things like this have existed for various Linux distributions for a while now. It's a good idea, perhaps Apple should do something like it someday.

    Reactions to Vista

    mmh.. Fascinating question, not sure what kind of answer you want from Mac fans but.... To me it looks like a lump of ****, a load of stolen ideas from Sun's JDS, Sun's Looking Glass, Mac OS X, KDE and cobbled together with the same old lack of innovation which plague all of Microsoft's...

    Mac OS X on intel PCs?

    I have to second that.

    New Mac Minis and iBooks support core image?

    Then I won't buy it, of course! And by the time I NEED to have Core Image, they'll have moved over to a new processor etc anyway and I may get a new Mac. No problem. One thing though, I've just been told that Quicktime 7 Pro doesn't support brightness or contrast controls on machines...
