    white castle movie on apple site

    Its a American thing... namely the mid-west and eastward. Out here in the southwest we just look oddly at the white castle burgers sitting in the store and wonder why anyone would buy such small hamburgers.

    GarageBand - Free Loops

    Thats just awsome. Hopefully he won't be the only one to do this and we will start seeing more sites poping up where people can trade loops.

    X11 won't start (10.3.1, X11 1.0)

    Well I just got it to work. I went and nuked my /Applications/X11.app and my /usr/X11R6, removed the X11User reciept in /Library/Reciepts and then re-installed. This time it put X11.app under /Applications/Utilities and running that works. So I would check on yours and see if you have a...

    X11 won't start (10.3.1, X11 1.0)

    Nope. I haven't found any solutions yet. It's quite annoying. From the error, it seems like the version of XFree and of the X11.app are not matching up, but I can't seem to figure out why. Especially since it was working for a while on 10.3.

    X11 won't start (10.3.1, X11 1.0)

    Well today my X11 install decided it didn't want to start. I had been working a while-ago (I haven't had the occasion to use it for almost a month), but today it just starts and immediately exits with the following error to the console: 2003-11-28 12:10:30.424 X11[521] Could not connect the...

    FileVaults

    It doesn't say any where on that page that FileVault is in the DP. It only says that it will be in Panther.

    Panther not really 64 Bit?

    Ok, this is just wild conjecture, but what is stopping them from doing what HP does with HP-UX 11 (not to be confused with 11i which is only 64bit)? Basically you boot the installer and if its a 32bit machine it installs the 32bit version of the kernel/libraries, and if its a 64bit machine it...

    New Finder Question

    It’s the way they shift load from the CPU to the GPU that kills it for lower-end macs. The basic idea of it is that everything becomes an OpenGL textured box. Each window is a 2d OpenGL square with the contents as its texture. This allows for all sorts of cool things, like expos&eacute...

    favorite new Finder features...

    Developers leaving the platform is a decided down side, but many times its the price that must be paid in order to get software that works. Apple's announced features for Font Book leave quite a few pro-level features out, so there is plenty of room for Extensis and Diamondsoft to improve and...

    Down side? That is the point of competition. These companies had better make their products competitive or they will die off. Right now there are not too many people who are happy with the pro level font management solutions available on OS X, if Panther's native font manager can give these...

    Germans opened boxes

    My question is about the 1 usb 2.0 jack. I thought that usb 2 used the same jack as usb 1.1, and if so, how the hell is the average user going to tell the difference? I would assume that if apple was going to do usb 2 they would just make the whole onboard usb bus 2.0, since its compatable...

    What does Hypertransport get me?

    Possibly faster, depends on your video card most likely. Faster because the cpu can move data back and forth to memory faster and isn't waiting for data all the time. Faster, although it will depend on video card as well. Won't change, because the hard drive still will be slower than the...

    2.0 for Old iPods, petition

    j79, what are you really missing by not having 2.0 on your iPod? I ask this seriously, because with the most recent update to the firmware for the old iPods, you got AAC playback, which is the only functional improvement to the 2.0 firmware outside of the Notes feature (as far as I have heard...

    I still break out the brood war every once in a while. School and other games tend to get in the way but, SC and BW will always have a special place in my game playing heart.
