A google search about a year ago when I was looking for some upcoming apple info, but never joined until recently. I wasn't sure about this menagerie of mac maniacs, but now I know I'll fit right in. :rolleyes:

good point man
actually I got blank DVD-Rs for $1.50 each. so i imagine by 2005 they will be at blank CD-R prices. haha actually by then B-Ray disks will hold 50GBs so sony's 4GB wont be a threat.

Perfect work around for no AAC support (protected and 'open') on Tivo. Great Job by the author. Yeah, I had a little issue with getting it to work, but that was firewall related and me not doing the right thing (reading a readme file.... who needs one, right?), but it seems stable!!

I just added 2 iMac g5's, 1.6 and 1.8 ghz. after about 25 minutes, its at .28 percent on a p878_p53dimer8. Is that normal? Its been at .28 for a while, maybe the percent doesnt update often?
If you have tiger,
"spotlight" unitinfo.txt. Otherwise it is in your home directory in the Folding@home folder. That file is the true status of the current work unit your system is processing.

I'm still kind of obsessed over the new TiBook, if there is going to be one.
It's really pissing me off that they're waiting so long, or taking so long, to release it.
The line is starting to show it's age.

I believe I've read Apple makes the bulk of its income selling hardware. MacOS X is the software that makes that possible. If Apple permitted standard PCs to run MacOS X, several things would probably happen:
1. Apple hardware sales would initially plummet, killing Apple's revenue stream.
2. The user experience using MacOS X on Intel would be terrible as Apple would then have to deal with the plethora of hardware incompatibilities in the Wintel world.
3. Apple would be seen as a direct competitor to Microsoft, creating the expected Microsoft reaction, and subsequent marketing campaign pointing out those problems and how they work better currently using Windows XP, so why change?
4. The world would then realize that the reason that Apple's products have been so good is that Apple controls both the hardware and the OS, and stop buying the Intel version of MacOS X.
So, would Apple's $4.3B last long enough for this trauma to work its wait out and permit Apple to return to its closed hardware/OS solution?
It's an interesting thought, that of Apple Macs and Intel Macs in the marketplace. Would Microsoft stand by and permit this? Microsoft has never failed to use its monopoly clout to squash/influence competitors in the past, and I don't doubt they would have private talks with software developers would might think about developing software for this new platform. I think we could forget about Office for Mactel, or Office for Mac, for that matter.
A more realistic, if still far out alternative, is that Apple is simply covering its bases by preserving the ability to switch processors, while retaining control of the box. This means replace the PPC with an Intel chip, maintain a Mac ROM, continue to sell an integrated package that's better than a Wintel solution. That probably wouldn't be as compelling a solution as today's PPC-integrated box, but it would allow Apple to continue selling hardware.
I don't think we'll ever see Apple offering the MacOS to the generic Intel world.

$500 plus $60 per game is a lot just to play a video game
I bought an NES for about $35 and can get games for a few bucks each!

I guess I should have searched first, but it didn't occur to me that anyone else would have proposed something this otw. :o
Maybe when I actually get my backwards compatible Xbox 360 and PS3, I'll be more willing to throw caution to the wind and give this a go. For now, I'll leave it for braver folk than I.

But maybe I will be suprised because by now I set my expectations so low...:D You can go to the education area of the Apple Store (http://www.apple.com/education/) where you can find prices that are somewhat lower for those available to the general public. You don't have to wait for promotions, although those may reduce your price even more.

That company has always gotten on my nerves. All they do is repackage open-source software (older releases of the software) and sell it. Does that not defeat the purpose of the open-source idea? If they really wanted to be cool, they wouldn't sell GNU software in download format.
Also, they could give everything an integrated name-theme.

ThinkSecret got the Apple Back-To-School Promotion (http://www.macrumors.com/pages/2006/06/20060604194907.shtml) story right, although it was minor news and MacRumors had its own source. It would be nice to see them come up with more exciting stories.

Great App, nice and simple, quick to use!
A couple of issues you might be interested in...
I'm using a PowerBook G4 17" OSX 10.3.6
Issue 1
A little issue but not totaly a problem... When moving the browser window around the screen I noticed you can move it up and out through the finder menu bar of OSX. This can be annoying sometime, especially when you are used to slamming windows up against it and quickly shifting windows around. Granted Expose is good for navigating I still find it necessary to throw windows around the finder and not have them dissapear up and under the Finders menu bar.
Issue 2
Another problem, if I enter a URL that doesn't exist the app just beachballs and I get a horrendous blipping sound that pips a couple of times a second, after about 30 seconds eventually unexpectedly quits.
Issue 3
When I tried to send this via Feedback window I got a warning/error about being connected to the internet and having a valid email account. I was connected but Mail.app was not open, I then pre launched mail and will hit the send button on the feedback window. Yep, I still get an error Message Sending Failed.
Keep up the good work.
A thought I had, Safari and the newly launched FireFox v1 have pretty much covered what I need as well as many of my friends needs, one area that may lack is the ability for the browser to "read/speak" the text in the window. Good for Disability access. Might be an added bonus if you made this easily accessable in the browser bar. Just a thought :@)
DisabilityAccessability issues are really hitting the scene now in the UK as legal powers are now there for the government bodies to hit site owners who do not comply with the new regulations.
