    Total Disaster? Here's why.

    A caveat: I'm basing this analysis on the specs posted by MacMinute as of August 12, 2002, before the official release of the revised G4 towers. Basically, although I've been a Mac user since 1984 when my best friend in middle school showed me his cool 128 KB Mac, I'm afraid we Mac users are...

    Qaud G4 Towers on the way?

    Macosrumors.com recently posted this interesting tidbit "One very interesting new development is a growing belief that Apple may be ready to unleash Quad Processors on us, with the help of the new memory bus and PPC 7470 chips. If true, this alone could signify an entirely new era in Mac...

    OS X Mail.app and MS Exchange Server...help!

So now I have no problems downlolading mail via IMAP and reading it. Unfortunately, every time I try to send email through the Exchange server, I get a "cannot connect...

    Future iPod Killer Feature!

    It's probably already been mentioned before, but it occurred to me as I was posting a message regarding iPod sales figures. But a killer feature for the iPod more than anything else would be an integrated digital satellite radio receiver. We're starting to see XM radios being offered in some...

    Latest iPod Sales Figures?

    As captivating as the subject line is, I don't know what those figures may be. Has anyone heard what the latest iPod sales figures might be? Apple sold 125,000 in the first 60 days, but it's been more than 90 days since those figures have been released. Considering Apple held the line on...

    OS "EX" or OS "Ten"?

    Just wondering, but how many times have you heard people pronounce OS X as "EX" instead of "Ten?" I know Apple (for trademark reasons) has been pretty clear since the beginning about referring to OS X as version 10, but I've heard a lot of ordinary users referring it to is as OS "EX." Should...

    Shaq bans all but iPods from Lakers bus!

    Check out this hot clip from Fox Sports! Apparently Shaq got sick of all the CDs and tapes the other Laker players were carrying around and cluttering up the bus with, and declared you only ride the Lakers bus if you have an iPod. So Fox followed three of the Lakers as they went to the Apple...

    Uninstalling Classic in OS X

    Is there a "proper" way to uninstall the Classic environment in OS X beside dragging the OS 9 folder to the trash? I'd like to remove Classic, but I was wondering if there was another/better way of doing so. Thanks in advance for your responses!

    Multi-Language Support?

    One thing I haven't been able to figure out while playing around with X is how to input foreign languages. I know there are International keyboard options, and so on, but so far, I haven't been able to figure out how to actually <b>type</b> in other languages. Just for the purpose of...
