    nope carbon, that is why it takes advantage of this update.

    Remember AOL just stared using Mozilla (or was it NS 6/7?) for it's Prodigy users. After that they will likely move over its' AOL base to Mozilla as well, for that exact same reason. to hurt M$.

  3. apple is going to be pissed on iPhoto Book Tackles Version Issues · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Amazon and this write let it slip that a new version of iPhoto is coming out at MWNY.

    I'm not a finance guy (go figure posting to slashdot...) so are gross margins how much they mark up the price of their product over cost?

  5. update broke system folder... on Apple Releases Mac OS X 10.1.4 · · Score: 2, Informative

    I have a dual 450 G4 and after I updated the system lost track of my system folder. I restarted again holding down option (for those of you new to the mac OS holding down option will let you select which drive/partition to boot off of, I have X on one and 9 on the other as backup) and gave X another shot and it worked that time. just fair warning.

  6. Re:Finally... on Photoshop Graces Mac OS X · · Score: 1

    its' a great feature that first showed up in 8.5 or 9.0 (can't remember which) where you can take a item (folder, file, whatever) and hold it over a folder. After a few seconds it would open up the new foldeer to let you procede.

    And if my memory of 9 is still working you can then move the file out the window to go back down a level.

    It was very useful for moving files all over the system. For some reason a lot of people loved it to no end. I never really used it much, and they have been crying for this for over a year and a half now.

    But X does need this to make moving files all over the system easier in any of the 3 view formats. Cutting and Pasting files is so winblowz..

  7. Re:Diablo for Mac is SLOW on Diablo II Patch for Mac OS X Released · · Score: 1

    Yeah, its' nVidia's crappy drivers. My GF just got a new iMac and was VERY Disapointed to find that her 700Mhz G4 w/GF2MX was pulling 5-15 fps, 5 during combat. On the other hand my dual 450 (single 450 to the game of course) w/Rage Pro 128 is capped at 25 in single player. (for those who don't know D2 caps the fps @25 in single player mode)

    The beta never worked for me so I'll forgive that but even the file does not sync my palm Vx!

    FedEx has multiple hubs. My iMac didn't go through Memphis because I live in southern California.. it went straight from Alaska to California.

  14. Re:The intel release on Apple Releases Mac OS X 10.1.3 · · Score: 1

    It didn't work for BeOS; why would it work for Apple? Well at least this time the OEM's aren't locked down with M$'s licensing deal that prohibited them from doing this.

    This is how my school LAN is setup. Though, it is a pair of Sun Servers but the idea is still the same. If one goes down the other can take over automatically.

  16. Re:Apple's Position on Steve Jobs And The Oh-So-Cool iMac · · Score: 1

    All well and true....but would you say that apple has NOT made decent growth and returns over the past 4 years of Job's reign? 38 million in the black as of today...not to shabby since the tech sector is still in a major slump.

  17. Re:Well, now, wait a minute on Interview With iMac designer, Jonathan Ive · · Score: 1

    The iMac2 is worse of a joke than the original iMac, with all its fruity translucent curves. I believe apple is betting on it, seeing as hte original has sold over 6,000,000 times. But I do agree with you on no one else making a machines exactly like it. Apple will sue them like they did eMachines.

  18. Re:Go read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenan on Interview With iMac designer, Jonathan Ive · · Score: 1
    I got the new iTunes2 update the other day and thought I would try it out. I took me a while to figure out that I had to drag-n-drop the MP3s I wanted to play on to the app. Perhaps that is allways obvious to a mac user but for me it isn't.
    I don't know about you but when you launch the program the first time it searches your hard drive and adds all mp3's found. Also check out the file menu for 'add to library' point it at a song or folder and any mp3's found their in are added. of course you could drag and drop them all in if you wish....
