I have two (a dual 500 G4 tower and an iBook)... unless you count the Mac Classic in the garage. Of course, I can't even count the total number of Macs I've had since my late arrival to the Mac scene in 1985.

I suspect that CNN tracks unique votes not by browser type, but rather by the "CNNid" cookie that you are given the first time you visit CNN.com. So I voted a few times from Safari, deleting the cookie each time. Of course, they could also limit to one vote per IP address, but that would only...

CNN has a poll -- Mac vs. PC. Place your vote now! The poll is in the lower-right corner of the front page.

In my case it was not a zombie. It just wouldn't die... until sometime in the night. This morning it was gone. Perhaps one of my kill commands finally reached it.

What can be done about a process that refuses to be killed? In my case it's Adobe Acrobat. It's not responding and does not die in response to either a "kill" command from the terminal or the usual force quit. Any ideas? Thanks! :confused:

Safari autocompletes just fine for me. Of course, the URL you want it to complete must be in your history or bookmarks.

This is definitely from Interface Builder... and you can prove it if you have the Developer Tools installed. Here's how: Go to /System/Library/PreferencePanes/ Control-click (or right-click) on "SharingPref.prefpane" and select "Show package contents". From there, dig down through...

If I'm not mistaken, there is a FedEx distribution center in both Cordova and in Middleton, PA (where mine was shipped from). By shipping from regional dist. centers, Apple is probably save a ton in shipping costs.

I finally got a shipment notice. It was shipped yesterday (Wednesday) by Fedex 2 Day from Middleton, PA, so I'll have it sometime tomorrow!

Nearly the same here, although I did receive a message on Sunday saying it would ship Wednesday or Thursday. I wonder if they are waiting until last to ship the student discount orders -- It seems that they have already shipped orders placed in the past week, but ours (which we ordered the day...

Although I have not experienced the extreme problems that Ed has, I cannot count the number of zip disks that have died on me, their final breath always being the "click of death". I have an internal zip drive in my G4 Tower (Graphite), but I have only used it a few times the past year. But...

The Apple Store (http://store.apple.com) is currently being updated. The message says that it will be back online within the hour.

According to a report at Think Secret (http://www.thinksecret.com) Jaguar is already shipping to resellers. Apparently (although not specifically stated in the report) at least some have already received the shipments. It is stated that the OS X 10.2 package includes two install CDs and the...

Do you want to do this just once, or regularly? You could get the two connected on an ethernet network by using a scsi to ethernet adapter with the duo (here's one one ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2024694820). Farralon also used to make one. If you're just...

I got abiword working in no time using the following installers (all binaries): X-Free86: http://www.opensource.apple.com/projects/xonx/XInstall_10.1.sit OroborOSX: http://wrench.et.ic.ac.uk/adrian/software/oroborosx/OroborOSX-v0.8preview2.tar.gz AbiWord...

chenly, I know practically nothing about *nix, so I took the easy route. I installed Xfree86 and oroborosx in less than 10 minutes (not counting download) using the following double-clickable installers: http://www.opensource.apple.com/projects/xonx/XInstall_10.1.sit...

I, like scruffy, have always thought "could care less" to be incorrect usage. As it turns out, scruffy is right on about the sarcasm. From The American Heritage Book of English Usage: I could care less! you might say sometime in disgust. You might just as easily have said I couldn't care...
