    freeware vs. shareware.. i'm torn

    one really easy way to solve this problem would be to release your code as 'open source' to the community. then everyone who's interested can code his own stuff into it and a lot of people will code and improve your application just for the fun of it. open source is a philosophy you should...

    you have GOT to be kidding!! first thing right away: M$ is in NO WAY AT ALLLLLLLLLLLL impressed nor intimidated or nervous about apple. if M$ is starting to get a lil nervous than it is about linux and companies like IBM featuring linux on their server systems! and if you speak of 'apple...

    Quake 3 Arena and AIM

    first of all: quake3! i have it. i had it running under OS 9, it sucked so badly under X's Classic that i deleted it. And now after formatting my HD a couple times and reinstalling X i found the Q3 update! i guess one of the main errors many of you guys are making is that you are putting the...

    Re-install Mac OS X

    try this: find an old Mac OS 9 system CD. Start up from that CD by holding down the "C" key during the 'start up process'. once you are in the cd-based Mac OS 9 use Disk Utility and fire "Drive Setup" on the HD. that should find the UFS based HD and you should be able to re-format it back to...

    new powerbook g4

    as a matter of fact i dont suggest any partition at all. macosx is very well able to handle the harddrive very efficiently and if you should ever really have to boot from another source than where you're macosx sits, just use the system cd. plus! i furthermore suggest: FORMAT your HD prior to...

    Quake 3 for OS X

    did you follow the "installing instructions"?? maybe you should just completely erase it and then re-install it. which works like this: you un-pack the "download"...and into that directory you COPY a part of the cd, which i dont remember right the name right now, but it's in the "readme" file...

    Quake 3 for OS X

    ...on the 8MB ATI card lacking to pack a mighty punch. I'm running it on my P/B and am in fact somewhat disappointed. It only runs at a rather low-res (800x640) and you can FORGET about 32bit textures. all other details need to be "screwed down", too, unless you wanna play in a completely...

    What Gives.....?

    what is up with the last two messages here? let's take a look? anybody noticing anything "odd" about them? hmmm, i wonder. OH YEAH! there it is! ivtrk feels like throwing a lil "low-blow" at someone's opinion which, in fact, is totally uncalled for. this is a message board for everybody, thus...

    Keyboard Function Keys

    Why are the function keys on my G4 Powerbook not working anymore? Im not referring to the F1-F12 keys. Im talking about the function keys that regulate brightness, volume and eject the disc? They worked perfectly fine under 9 but under X nothing is happening. I find that rather bothersome. I...

    Thanks Elder Dan! did what you suggested. just copied and pasted the command line you were talking about into the terminal. entered. got reminded to respect other people's privacy, prompted for my password, and could right away clean up my harddrive by putting folders where they in my opinion...

    Function Keys

    The function keys on my Powerbook G4 that once granted me such quick access to key features like display brightness, volume control and disc ejection are not working anymore. Is that just one of the Mac Os X shortcomings or is there a tweak to get them to work again? Please let me know what you...
