Are you sure about that? I thought the problem was caused by it being on "automatic." When I set mine to "highest," the 10.3.8-induced fan revving stopped.

I would imagine it's also probably wise to use something fairly long, like a knitting needle, to puncture the bottom tape, lest your fingers get sucked into the pipe.
So when insects infect a Mac, can you just use ordinary Raid, or do you have to wait for Apple's soon-to-be-released xRaid? Do I detect the start of a sales campaign? 8^)
I have a rev A blue and white g3/400 PowerMac running 10.2 and Photoshop 7 is *significantly* less responsive than Photoshop 5.5 was under OS 9.2. I can't say whether the slowdown is caused by the Photoshop upgrade (I hear they rewrote the rendering engine from scratch), or the OS change, but the net effect is I go bonkers waiting for things that used to be faster. Maybe PS7 wants a G4 w/altivec, which I don't have. I'd be interested in testing PS on a G4 to see.
Let us not forget that it was New Line that callously yanked Tolkien's loveable Tom Bombadil! It was New Line that turned Arwen into a heroic Nazgul-racing babe-elf! It was New Line that left out poor Glorfindel and his big moment at the river altogether!
I don't know about anyone else, but I think it's only fitting that a New Line character be messed with.
But when 95% of all online purchases are made from Windows machines, then from a business point of view it doesn't make sense to worry about the other 1%.
Actually, I'm more worried about the 4% who mysteriously have vanished into thin air.
Of course, what never gets pointed out is that the CD title and the track names are themselves copyrighted material, owned by the copyright holder (in this case the record company.)
My understanding is that you cannot copyright a title of a work. Titles of songs may be registered with some sort of ASCAP organization, which may prevent competing songs/albums from carrying identical titles, but it's not the same as copyright, which implies ownership. The recording artist/publisher has no more claim to royalties from a CDDB database than I would as someone entering the data, in my view.
My four-year-old son knows how to quit just about any computer game he plays, and then for fun he starts opening folders and windows and clicking on all the cool looking icons. He started Quake a couple times this way even though I'd buried it deep within embedded folders.
I supervise as much as I can, but with two kids, they're not always in the same room, etc., and I would love to have a game machine that I know won't let the kid pop in the wrong cartridge, in the same way I would like it safe from blowing up if he pressed the wrong button.
So just chill on the "idiot" namecalling and recognize there's a value to many consumers for this feature even if you yourself don't want it.

Confirmed. Blank page for me, using Safari.

Good points. I yield.
This is what popped into my head upon reading this post... same principal as the XOR method but simpler to explain to layfolk...
A = A*B
B = A/B (gives B the orig A)
A = A/B (gives A the orig B)
LOL. Starcraft says that line...does C&C also? I had mod points two days ago...damn.
>So you're being shortchanged by over 10%.
Hate to nitpick (OK, I really enjoy it, so sue me)...
Using your figures, the shortchange percentage is (99511627776/1099511627776)*100 = 9.050529822707%
That's less than 10%.
Sprint is in Kansas. Maybe they have a killer p2p mp3/mpeg sharing/playing cell phone ap in the works. OK, maybe not. A PCS user can dream, can't he?
No kidding. I only stopped playing Myth2 because the boots into Classic got to be such a hassle combined with Bungie.net going bye-bye.
This is really great news indeet. w00t!

I distribute copyrighted mp3s all the time over my 802.11 connection. Of course, the copyright is held by others.

All your first post belong to us.
I'd laugh if it weren't so close to the truth.
