    iDVD 4 external burner hack?

    I have recently got a great deal on an external firewire DVR-106D and it works fine, except it doesn't work with iDVD. Anybody know a hack to allow it to work? By the way, I'm working on a powerbook G4/800 (bought it before superdrives were an option) so putting the drive into the case isn't...

    Hello folks, I want to change the icon for Mail.app - how can I do so while still allowing the little red numbers showing the number of unread messages to appear? Or is that just impossible? I wasn't sure how it generated the red number... a bunch of similar icon files with those little red...

    OS X - Server or "souped-up" Client?

    Hi folks, We are getting ready to start an intranet for a small company with just over 100 employees. I know I can set up web sharing on OS X client as well as tools such as PHP and MySQL. However, since this intranet will be critical to us, is it worth the money to buy OS X server...
