    thanks for everyone's insight. i've decided to cancel my order of the 9000 (only god knows when it'll actually ship). i've found a radeon 8500 for literally $5 more (inc. shipping) at enpc.com. -JoeCrow

    eh, help, please (c++)

    Hey, thanks for the response! I was looking around apple's developer site last night and came accross the fact that it was a linker error, not a compiling error, but I had no idea how to fix it. Your description got me squared away-- turns out that I just needed to add the source files...

    eh, help, please (c++)

    I realize that no one needs my life story, so let's cut to the chase. I'm trying my first stab at OOP with a string class called "oostring". It's provided with my programming book (available online at: http://www.studio-ide.com/downloads/cppfiles.zip with some other stuff, if anyone cares)...

    Nice Try Spymac

    Want to hear why it's really fake? Apple would never name a product something as lame and stupid (what you walk while you compute?) as 'iWalk'. C'mon... this is Apple we're talking about here. -JoeCrow

    FTP works, apache does not

    if you have apache set up and you didn't remove the alias to the apache manual in your web directory, you can learn how to change the port buy pointing your browser to: http://127.0.0.1/manual/mod/core.html#port. All you have to do is change the Port 80 command to something like Port 8000 in...

    FTP works, apache does not

    Thanks for the help! I actually figured this to be true in the mean time =(. Seems my ISP (Verizon DSL) has blocked off port 80. There isn't a way to make a domain name point directly to a port other than 80 without putting a :## after it, is there? I don't think so, but if there is, I'd...

    FTP works, apache does not

    I have a DSL connection with a dynamically assigned IP address. I connect to the 'net using a router and each computer connects to the router using DHCP (although the LAN IPs are leased forever). I set up my router (SMC Barricade) to map ports 21 and 80 to my G4 (192.168.2.14). On the WAN...

    God I Want a Power Mac G5!

    The entire chemistry department at my high school was running on Mac Classics until this year. One classroom got PC's a couple of months ago, but the other still has macs (lemme tell you... they've spent 3 or 4 times as much time in tech support for the windows machines in the last 3 months as...

    Native FTP program?

    type 'ftp' in the terminal to use the builtin ftp client. for a list of available commands type '?'. it does just about everything... and you can tell it what file to upload by dragging the file onto the terminal window (which puts the files location on the current line). -JoeCrow

    AOL UK abandons Mac OS X

    I'm not sure how the localized version of AOL with different OSes work... but I'm sure that the people in the UK shouldn't have any trouble getting the US version. Maybe AOL just figured they'd let the UK use the US stuff. If not, many people could get you AOL for classic, or AOL Beta for X...

    OSX Video Codecs...

    OS X will not use a CODEC in the Classic extensions folder. In otherwords, OS 9 and OS X QT CODECs are not interchangeable. Want proof? divx.jamby.net has a "divx codec" that works in X, but not in 9. 3ivx.com has different versions of their codec for both OS 9 and X. Mac OS X codecs...

    MacOS X Compatable Scanners?

    Yeah, thanks to Agfa. They're one of the first to release OS X drivers... it's so said. I read the other day that they're exiting the scanner business =(. Why's this have to happen to someone who actually makes drivers? -Joe Crow

    Can't log on!

    I've been having some weird problems with Mac OS X since I updated to 10.1. It has all led up to this: At login, I have only one login option for the user: "Other..." (I previously had 4 different logins). Anyway, when I click on "other," I'm presented with user name and password fields. None...

    Epson drivers on the way!

    Well, after a few emails, and about one weeks time, I finally heard back from Epson about support for the Stylus COLOR 800 (not mentioned in their statement on drivers). Anyway, they said a big fat "NO". They then refered me to a 800 number if I had further questions. So, I suggest that if...

    RealPlayer support

    Heres what I've learned... the source code which divx player is based (available at http://divx.jamby.net) has the ability built-in to decode and encode Real Media Files as well as divx. I don't know when/if they'll bring support. -JoeCrow

    Epson - why no uproar ?

    Hey Buddy, don't worry-- Epson's heard a piece of my mind. They don't have support for my printer (Stylus COLOR 800) and aren't planning support according to their generic response. I'm not happy with them or their products. Screw you Epson. -JoeCrow

    Rip those DVDs

    OK... in this forum I can easily see that I'm a DVD-ripping "specialist". Here's the low down. The process is very complicated on a Mac. There's no app to pop in a DVD and end up with a DivX movie. Here's the process. 1. Use DVD Extractor (in Classic), to decode the DVD... This app...
