Probably true. But try a European/Latin America (non-native to you) keyboard and watch the fun that will ensue. Personally, I think Apple's solution is more universal and elegant.
When I had the Palm Desktop installed under 10.2.1, I can establish a serial connection to my Palm cradle. How with 10.2.3, it no longer allows a native serial connection (only USB-to-serial and USB allowed).
I keep on telling others of this memory and they're amazed but I don't think it's so amazing because I feel there are those who may remember more. What I do recall is I was in bed, feeling unhappy, probably because I got ran out of milk. I then thought I would throw a tantrum and cry a little; but when I saw my dad with a somewhat angry look, it scared me more and I cried even louder (for real this time). I think that event imprinted my natural instinct to fear my dad.
I have the Star Wars Trilogy Definitive Collection LD with the unintentional deleted scene in Empire Strikes Back. What is this flawed version worth? I personally doubt people will pay significantly for this version but hey I'm willing to negotiate.:) www.jax-inter.net/~datalore/starwars/THX.htm
but with my eyes. I look at too much porn...I mean JPEGs...and now my eyes canna adjust to the real world. The anti-aliased text on my computer screen doesn't help either.
This assumes your old hardware supports wide interfaces. Something like an old world Power Macintosh which only supports narrow devices natively are SOL without another adaptor daisy-chained. I'm kinda in this situation but have gone SCSI for drives. One thing I would like is a SCSI DVD-ROM drive, but I can get one for $99 so getting the ATAPI-to-SCSI is not cost effective.
What it really means is animation that are only released on video. Films such as Spirited Away will not qualify since it came out in theaters; others that have aired on TV also don't qualify; but you get the picture.
Actually, for CDs if you scratch the top lacquer layer, you're prone to scratching off the reflective aluminum layer beneath it, not the actual bits. The bits are pressed in the thick polycarbonate layer pressed on the bottom.
CD-Rs on the other hand have non-pitted polycarbonate layers and the "pits" are burned in a chemical dye layer between the polycarbonate and reflective layer (with the top most layer being the thin lacquer).
I recently discovered that my spare Options by IBM SelectEase has some defective keys. I tried to take one of the halves (splits into 2 pieces) apart and found that the underlying PCB layer is held together by what appears to be locking washers attached to plastic pegs. What tool can I get to pry these off? The specific key's spring has been deformed so the force required to press it has increased and the tactile feedback has disappeared (spring no longer deforms to create the clicking sound). What I wanted to do was switch its spring clip with that of a less-used key like F11. I'm well aware the potential havoc that can arise by the disassembly of these mechanical IBM keyboards. More info at PCGuide and here
I know that pckeyboard.com fixes keyboards but with the unfavorable comment here, I don't want to try them since these keyboards aren't being made any more.
Also, what causes keys to repeat intermittently? Old springs?
It would really help the author's cause if he provided some examples, w/ source code so people can see for themselves what kinds of speed increase they can get. Better yet, provide an example of an app he rewrote using his theories to demonstrate the speed increase. Until some real-world examples are available it's just all talk; or maybe he's expecting others to prove his theory for him.
There are different philosophies, but how are you avoiding your NiCad's memory problems? My Sony 900MHz is maybe 3-4 years old now and its batteries still last as long as they did when they were new--standby at around a week. I don't talk hours on end but they last a lot more than 10 minutes. I basically let them drain until they're dead then swap them with the second battery charging at the base.
I used to use StuffIt Deluxe a long time ago until it seemed as though each new OS revision (not even version) would break something of the product, warranting a product update. Either the main app or the problematic total finder integration StuffIt/Magic menu would be hosed. So I lost patience and stopped upgrading.
With OS X why bother using StuffIt when you can create a compressed disk image? There's always Expander--which is a very nice, and free, product--when you have to extract SIT files.
What perfect timing. I installed a Radeon w/ fan no less than 3-4 months ago and just a week or so ago, the fan started making a moaning/groaning noise cycling several minutes apart.
I read on Usenet a while back that groaning fan problems can sometimes be solved by removing its backing sticker and oiling the access hole. I performed this procedure for my Radeon's fan and the groaning noise is gone.
Interestingly enough, Word 5.1a--perhaps the best version of Word under Macintosh, everything was fluff--will run under Classic and its Format->Document... (note instead of Document->Format) dialog box shows up.
When I went to junior college I took Conceptual Physics in which my instructor used his book "Thinking Physics." His style made the class much more interesting. There's almost no calculations involved. Some samples from the book can be found at this web site.
You don't need to "hack the insides." Just go to Dell's website and access the documentation for your i8K. It contains the pinouts plain as day. You will need to register or you may not be able to see the link, but I don't see what the fuss is all about. Unless you don't want to register, but you gotta give something to get something. Pinouts
I read the first paragraph and I also thought of MO technology. Magneto-optical is quite stable and I think my NeXT MO disks are still good from over 10 years ago. But they sure had pitiful seek times and loud--never tried a contemporary MO drive. Hopefully Seagate solved this access problem for use in their upcoming drives.
I think those with Macintoshes with 66MHz PCI slots will see more benefits than those with the 33MHz variety. This is probably why some people see no difference with QE enabled versus disabled.
10.2 is a pretty good upgrade. It's noticably faster than 10.1.5. With that in mind, people may want to get some more extra speed by moving the swapfile from the root partition to another one. Since Mac OS X mounts drives asynchronously, your drives may live off another special device between boots, which would break "normal" UNIX code for mounting drives via/etc/fstab. xlr8yourmac.com
has a nice article on this.
The nice thing about this mounting scheme is it allows you to change your drive's id (SCSI here/or ATA master/slave setting) at will and still be able to boot unlike many UNIX systems I'm familiar with.
Do these AES images work with OS 9's Disk Copy? My only hesitation since I still have PGPDisk (the free version) which works between Mac OS 9 and Windows.
Did the participants take into account the code output from the compiler's cookie-cutter methodology or did they take the output at face value? I ask this because there is a lot of talk, particularly several years ago about how "bad and inefficient" gcc-generated code was. How much does looking at object code tell us how well the original high-level source was written?

Apparently you can bond up to 4 channels to get more bandwidth. It would be beneficial if one's willing to pay the price for such a setup.
1. No realtime URL completion like in Mozilla.
2. Cannot turn off password management so I have to put up with the maintain password for this site dialog.

So the company who is more powerful than the U.S. Government wants to take on Adobe, the perception is Adobe is in big trouble.
