off the original topic... but IE on the mac is awful (from a web developers point of view) it's support of various standards is flakey at the very least, stuff that renders fine on IE5, 5.5 & 6 on Windows just does nothing on Mac IE. The only reason it's still on my PB is that I still need to do...

The blue look is much cleaner than the old brown. Good effort :) The grey buttons (home, gallery etc) look great but the contrast between the text and the button background means i have to squint at the screen to read them. Things already mentioned: Width! I agree with spitty27 - the site is...

Androo I get the same results as my previous post when using the following browsers under os9.2: Netscape 7.0 Mozilla 1.0.2 IE5 Opera6 The only one that causes any problems is iCab, it was very slow to download the nav bar and i had to manually stretch the window to see all of...

Androo Speed is fine but I'm on a fast link at work. Title bar I lose the title bar at 800x600 At 1024x768 or above the image repeats and it spoils the look of the site - try removing the bevels so that the image merges with out any visible 'seams'. Navigation bar The orange logo...

Cheers Cheryl I tried one of the other scripts with "V34" in the name and that worked fine.

Help! Rebuilt Girlie's PB (OS9.1) and forgot to backup the modem script for her PCMCIA modem :( The top of the card says: Motorola PCMCIA V.34 Data/Fax Modem The underside says: Model number: ECA3000 Modem V.34 Data/Fax modem Product code: 62075011-51 I couldn't find anything useful on the...

Soz ksv, didn't see the 10.0 bit. I'll try it on my PB when I get home. I like TommyWillB's idea, I'll have to spray the plug a funky colour and tell everyone I've got the latest add-on... the iMute :)

Article #106186 on the apple support site: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOPIC Muting the system volume does not silence the startup sound (or "chime"). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

Didn't know it was available in term prefs, i found this in a mag ages ago: defaults write com.apple.Terminal TerminalOpaqueness n where n 0>1 i think i was still on X10.0 then. i will reboot in jaguar later and have a look, who knows what else i may find?

Is there anything you are doing which requires you to be admin? I manage with an ordinary account and then either "su root" or exec the command with "sudo". You can see what they do with the "man" command (there, did it, mentioned all of the unix commands i know)

<option value="#" selected>Select A Job</option> neat! How many times have I put extra checks in to filter out "select an option" I live and learn!

hi tz3gm Must have been a very early release of OSX or you played with the clock a bit too much :) I'd prefer to go the other way and be rid of transparent windows, I'm sure they do nothing for the performance of X on my little powerbook. I saw a 'fudge' that would let you change the...

Love the line: You're an iClient if: your Macintosh can be depreciated. LOL ps I'm not an iJunkie but does anyone know where I can get a mains adapter for my QuickTake 150???

A simple point and well articulated! The problem is... where do you go and test drive a Mac? I don't know many computer shops in the UK that stock Macs and those that do are staffed by pimpled geeks who love to show off their knowledge of IRQ's and other really important 'techie' stuff...

What does Faster mean? I'm as guilty as anyone for bringing up the OS9 is faster than OSX issues, but for me, faster means: a) 9 boots quicker b) 9 loads apps quicker c) 9 opens/closes/resizes windows quicker I can get round these problems by: a) Use sleep mode in X (bad one for me as...

Hi gleffer, congrats on getting a Mac 1) Check out http://www.apple.com/macosx/jaguar/quartzextreme.html for info on QE support - also take a look around here on macosx for the thread about QE support 2) Dunno - I leave this for someone who knows about such things 3) Wow! what a...

I was on the Java seed list for a while and there was a lot of discussion about doing this. Most people ended up re-installing X to get back to a pure 1.3.1. It was something about the seed versions of Java writing/installing to 'more' places than they should have etc... Not sure if 1.4.1 has...

If your apps are all OS9 and it gives you the speed you need then do it! OSX will still be on your disk should you need it. I think I've said this before (and it's been suggested elsewhere), how about an OSX with an OS9 UI? Aqua is lovely to look at be how much is it costing us in CPU? I...

I've just rebuilt everthing on my iBook before it goes to it's new owner and everything went well until I installed MSN 3.5... When I opened MSN for the 1st time every single application loaded (never seen the dock so full)? I rebooted and ran it again and no problems this time, what's...

If Graeme was using only OS9 apps then I would agree with your 1st point, but he's also using keynote which is OSX only so he's stuck with co-existing for the moment. Dumping all your OS9 apps and buying new OSX versions can be prohibitively expensive, Apple gave us classic so we could move...
