There is a keyboard command for increasing and decreasing the font sizes. As for a font menu, I use FontSight.

As some people may already know, I happen to think TextEdit is a great application and I've posted pages on my sites (Mac OS X version and Rhapsody version) discussing it's usage and features. I had noticed the other day that someone who had linked to the Mac OS X version page had pointed out...

Seeing as I don't have any use for Boot Camp but still may have a use for Classic... from my perspective it looks like 10.5 for Intel would be the stripped-down version, not the PowerPC version.

Turn off Helvetica fractions... they don't work with Cocoa apps correctly.

During the development of NEXTSTEP 4 in 1994/95 NeXT redesigned the user interface... including putting both widgets on the same side (the right side). This interface was widely publicized during that time. Microsoft used the same clustering of widgets (and the same widget icons) that...

It should be noted that OmniWeb uses a special version of WebCore... and though it is not the version bundled with the operating system, it means that OmniWeb has pretty much the same compatibility with web pages as Safari. If you were using Firefox because you wanted the pages to display...

Where did I ever argue that there are no benefits of this? There are benefits, no doubt about it. And I challenge you to show where I said that no benefits exist because of this. You can think that, but it would be strictly an opinion.... My view is logic based, and doesn't require a negative...

I was going off of what I was told by people inside Apple... :rolleyes: it wasn't denial, it was high level misinformation. And from what I was told in the beginning (when the move to Intel was announced) I was surprised and shocked (and worried) at the early release of Intel hardware...

Lets break this reply into two sections... first addressing what seems like bizarre responses and second addressing what seems like legitimate questions. Lets start... I gave a rationale... a detailed one, for why they would do such a thing. You even responded to it. Either you are...

I don't know, I got it from my favorite character from the animated series from the 70s, Speed Racer For Mac OS 9 the on board video (specially if maxed out to 6 MB) is great... but for Mac OS X, pretty much any of the ATI PCI video cards (Rage 128 or higher) will end up making a pretty big...

I guess the question needs to be asked... were you a Mac user during the Mac OS 9 to Mac OS X transition? If so, when did you start using Mac OS X daily? And what was it that enabled you to start using Mac OS X? I use a lot of Mac only software... in fact I use a lot of Mac OS X only...

By 1990 SGI saw that desktop systems were starting to eat away at the workstation market. This started SGI into thinking about the fact that workstations alone may be a bad idea for the future. And so started MOM (Move Over Mac) at SGI where they pushed very hard to get into the desktop...

One of the reasons I think a lot of Mac users are not going to see this as bad until... well, it becomes bad, is that they haven't had experiences out side of the Mac platform. For example... why isn't there a Linux version of Adobe's Creative Suite? There are almost as many Linux users as...

Hopefully I'm very wrong. We'll find out soon enough though. If we start seeing developers like Adobe and Microsoft drop the Mac versions of their software saying "just run it in Windows" then we can pretty much kiss our platform goodbye. Boy I hope I'm wrong! But we'll have our first...

:confused: Didn't you ask if you could replace it yourself? Are you going to be flying out to Missouri to do this? I, personally, don't charge for estimates*... but I know a lot of people that do. The thing is, like with medical prognosis, getting a second opinion on something major is worth...

The logic board alone can run as high as $1100... The main question is if the problem is actually the logic board. When prices start to reach that level, it is best to make absolutely sure that the logic board is the problem and not some other (maybe less expensive) part. We have three...

You know, fonts are a funny subject. First of all putting fonts in any other folder out side of your home folder is asking for trouble. You shouldn't be adding fonts to Library/Fonts or System/Library/Fonts (nor should you really be removing any from these places either). The best place...

Hmmm... I didn't think there was anything that bad about the original (Okito Composer) release. :D

And there isn't too much that it doesn't have or that can't be added! Starting with the basics, you have built in spell checking (system wide as it is a service), nearly unlimited undos, a very nice find system, the ability to use graphics or images, very good control of fonts (thanks to text...

You are actually only licensed to use the copy of Mac OS X that came with a system on that system. And yes, you shouldn't be able to do this. The only way to get away with it is usually if the other systems are similar in configuration to the one the restore DVD was designed for. And...
