    Unit Tests with XCode

    Has anyone else messed around with writing unit tests with OCUnit (now built-in with XCode 2.2 and later)? I personally have started messing around with it, and OCMock, and am very pleasantly surprised a how clean it is. As a member of a Windows-centered programming team messing around with unit...

    Another Good Reason to be 3% of the Market...

    It is official, viruses on Windows have gotten more malicious than normal and we are starting to see some really nasty stuff come out. Even more reason to do regular backups from now on, and feel lucky that we haven't dealt with something this nasty on OS X yet: Ransom-Ware : Now hackers can...

    USB-IF using Macs?

    I am actually doing a bit of development for a very large, nameless Windows-oriented company in the USB field at the moment. *cough* So, part of the development required the latest USB spec documents from the USB-IF group (the 'company' in charge of the specification). Well, I grab the latest...

    Performance Impact of Spotlight

    While Spotlight is very cool, there is a slight issue with the effect of the indexing method on performance. I realized part of the Quicktime playback issues in 8A294 on older systems are actually due to Spotlight, not CoreVideo. When you first have Tiger installed, it starts a process called...

    FS: DVD Decoder Card for Wallstreet/Lombard

    With the destruction of my Lombard, and its replacement with a Pismo, I have an Apple branded DVD decoder card that isn't getting any use. The card is in working order, and other than some of the plastic laminate over the label coming loose, is in great shape. I ask for 50$ which includes...

    Pismo External Speaker Noise

    I recently acquired a Pismo that was dead for quite a few months. I managed revive it without having to replace the logic board, sound board, power board or processor, which is good news. Here is the bad/annoying part of the machine: If I plug in external speakers, I get a great deal of...

    iPod Development?

    Someone submitted an article to MacTech for last month's magazine. This one was particularly interesting, as the author had found out how the 3G iPods load software and run the little nifty apps like Notes, the games and so on. It is actually very straight-forward (as long as you know SNOBOL and...

    Ideas on cause of errors?

    I have an older 8600 which has run great until 2 days ago. Doing some investigating, it refuses to boot completely into any OS (8, 9, even X). I get large numbers of bus errors during boot, lockups, and when I did boot into single-user mode in OS X I attempted to fsck... Bus error (attempt 1)...

    FS: Wallstreet/Lombard DVD Decoder Card

    I got this decoder card awhile back, works well, but I just don't use it or need it. It is an Apple-branded DVD decoder card, without any boxes or the like. I am asking for 70$/obo. I will ship using first class USPS for no extra charge, but priority USPS would be an extra 3$.

    Galactica: AD

    I just pulled this game back up because I was in the mood for some MoO/Spaceward Ho gaming... and found out how easy and smooth you can serve multiplayer games for this one. Low bandwidth, adjustable time/etc... so I currently have a nice game going with the GF and this game can host many more...

    I have a Lombard 333 I bought used, and I just got a Sony CRX820E drive (same one used in the iBook in the last half of 2002) along with an Apple DVD Decoder module. Here is my problem, DVDs like a couple from my Farscape S1 box set, Shogun miniseries box set, Fellowship of the Ring, the Two...

    Xgrid Project

    Well, now that we have Xgrid... which does nothing, why not do something just because it is there? I remember helping someone attempt the factorial of 1 million, but failing because we didn't have enough time or computing power. Here is the trick I am attempting... I want to get an Xgrid setup...
