  1. Not so slimline on Blu-Ray Drive For Apple Notebooks · · Score: 1

    This is a 12.5mm drive, which means it's too big for the MacBooks and the 15in MacBook Pro, as they require 9.5mm drives. So for now we're stuck with these awful unreliable Panasonic drives that Apple seems to love (presumably because they're so cheap) which cannot be patched for RPC1.

  2. Re:the above post is a troll... on Apple Patents 'Chameleon' Computer Case · · Score: 1

    There were pink iMacs

  3. Re:ARM--- on ARM: The Non-Evil Monopolist · · Score: 1

    And my D-Link wireless access point.

  4. Re:Get an eMac on Tiger Slideshow: Pretty Mac OS X Pictures · · Score: 1

    That is most likely the situation. A G5 isn't a simple speed bump.

    And what I should have said is the iMac-as-we-currently-know-it no longer exists.

  5. Re:Get an eMac on Tiger Slideshow: Pretty Mac OS X Pictures · · Score: 1

    I seriously doubt that the reason for such a long delay would arise from a simple speed-bump.

    Thanks for the links.

  7. Re:Get an eMac on Tiger Slideshow: Pretty Mac OS X Pictures · · Score: 1

    The iMac no longer exists, so that's not really an option in any case. ;-)

  8. Let's find out. on On PHP and Scaling · · Score: 1

    What is the largest, or most heavily used php driven site?

  9. Re:Legitimate Sales Tactic on Apple Delays New iMac · · Score: 2, Informative
    without cannibalising sales of the present generation of stock

    According to the article, there is no stock. And else would they be refusing orders?

  10. Re: "G5 PowerBooks coming soon..." on Apple Acknowledges 15" PowerBook Spots · · Score: 1

    The Xserve doesn't have noise limits, trust me.

  11. Re:It is suggested on Microsoft Settles Be Antitrust Suit for $23.25M · · Score: 5, Informative

    My PowerBook didn't come with Windows. ;)

  12. Re:Aren't We Missing Another Important Point? on PowerBook G4 SuperDrive Speed Bump Hack · · Score: 5, Informative

    The documentation that came with my 12 inch PowerBook recommends that you only burn DVDs while on AC power, it obviously uses a lot of power.

  13. Other Filesystems? on State Of The Filesystem · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I use HFS+ because Apple makes me. Is it efficient? reliable? Well... it works most of the time.

    The + kept us busy for a while.

    Could you please tell me which type of sound output is less state-of-the-art than mono?

  15. Re:NASA Patent on Those Amazing Antigravity Machines? · · Score: 1

    No. But feel free to build your own space shuttle.

  16. Re:What's That? on 'Extraordinary' Soundtrack Will Be Apple-Exclusive · · Score: 1

    Apple is not publishing CDs, and Apple Record no longer exists.

  17. Re:Fink and Mcafee virus on New Fink Binary Distribution 0.5.2 · · Score: 1

    Fink and Virex can't be installed on the same machine.

    Yeah, but has anyone ever had a virus on OS X? Do they even exist?

    I'd take Fink over Virex any day.

  19. Re:I'm not too sure that the Windows 1.0 thing on Xerox Alto Computer 30th Anniversary · · Score: 2, Informative

    Apple never 'stole' from Xerox.

    Steve Wozniac wrote: Steve Jobs made the case to Xerox PARC execs directly that they had great technology but that Apple knew how to make it affordable enough to change the world. This was very open. In the end, Xerox got a large block of Apple stock for sharing the technology. That's not stealing outright.

    Ha! Fan base!

    uh, why do you mention quark?

    it's photography, not dp.

    also, as far as i know apple doesn't make quark xpress, quark does.

  23. Re:Get at the root of the problem on Conspiracy Theorists, Meet The Moon · · Score: 1

    Governments are quite capable of spinning their own conspiracy theories, even ones which make less sense than those of the so called "nuts".

    Actually I find the government's conspiracy theories to be much more interesting than this moon landing crap, at least they research them and give the whole thing a bit of depth.

    Actually the G4 iMac does have a fan.

    Ironically, if you try to backup a Quicken 2003 data file via Backup 1.2 (latest version) the application will lock-up.
    Apple has known about this bug for awhile and apparently are "working on a fix" with Intuit but nothing in the past few months.


    That asshole Bill Campbell is sleeping through the board meetings again!
