  1. Re:Way to download those ? on 1st Episode Of Animatrix Released · · Score: 2, Informative

    I used wget on http://progressive.stream.aol.com/wb/gl/wbonline/p rogressive/thematrix/us/med/animatrixlgfinal_dl.mo v to get the high definition version (about 140MB)

  2. Re:WTF? Nasa? on Britain's CAA Considers Laptop Ban on Commercial Aircraft · · Score: 1

    But you can't always tell whether or not there's a wireless card in a laptop from just looking at it- the one in my iBook is underneath the keyboard, with no visible external aerial.

  3. The REAL reason why Apple have done this... on Apple Uses DMCA to Halt DVD burning · · Score: 1

    Apple have to pay a royaly for each and every copy of iDVD that they distribute because of the MPEG codecs that it contains. When you buy a SuperDrive from Apple, part of the price that you pay covers that royalty paymeny. If you're using the drive with non-apple hardware, then their not making anything back to cover that payment. I reckon that this is the real reason why Apple have moved to stop this patch.

  4. Re:I like OS X too, but come on... on Scientists Switch to Mac OS X · · Score: 1

    Actually, you'll find that you'll get a decent speed boost out of Jaguar without Quartz extreme. It's not the only optimisation in there you know!
