  1. Re:This guy is just asking for it.... on Kutaragi Thumbs Nose At Other Consoles · · Score: 1

    Yes it was the G4. As for the PS2's I think it was iraq that bought a ton of them to be used because of the sanctions against the country.

  2. Re:I love how... on Nintendogs Pummels Sony Products · · Score: 1

    You know right now I'd say the Pro-N fans are outnumbering the Anti-N. Anyway I still think this game is not my cup of tea but then I realized this would be a great way to distract my girlfriend from wanting a cat.

    Sure hope I'm not getting myself in too deep. Men, wish me luck.

  3. Re:Good news on Nintendo Won't Pull A Sega · · Score: 1

    I believe that was only one or two quarters ago, and it was not the entire history. Only the past 50 years.

  4. Re:Other Widget Download Site on Third Parties Already Taking Advantage of Tiger · · Score: 1

    Cocoa books: Start with Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X by Aaron Hillegass. Once you have a handle on things I recommend cocoa programming by Scott Anguish, Erik M. Buck, Donald A. Yacktman. Beyond that all you need is apples documentation.

    Good luck, dont' forget apples and omni's mailing lists. I would also recommend picking up Tiger, Core Data is amazing and will save you countless hours of work.

    Relatively few schools will let you major in "partying" these days.

    It falls under the code word "Business".

  6. Re:Dual Processor isnt to sneeze at on Apple Updates Power Mac Line · · Score: 1

    long while. But there have been various models at times that were single chip. But overall apple has been shipping dual cpu boxes for five years now.

    The secret is not to own a GameCube at all. It's hers. ^_^

    Not that I know of any but it was my understanding that game companies optionally could charge to connect to their servers.

  9. Re:Maybe the market they target doesn't have the t on PSP Not A Sellout Hit · · Score: 1

    I had much fun killing my buddy when i got the game the other day. I looked at him and said this would suck on a windy march day outdoors. Hours later when he left and I finally got to play my game I discovered you can turn up/down the mic sensitivity under options.

    Thanks for the link I found it useful.

  12. Re:Easy...Ninnle! on In Which OS Do You Feel More Productive? · · Score: 1

    They dont' hype it anymore (was in place with 10.0) but it's "Core Audio". Apparently it's super fast / low latency / etc stuff. I'm not audio person nor have I used the API so I can't say more. I hope this will help your googling.

  13. Re:Backing Away? on Apple Backing Away From FireWire · · Score: 4, Funny

    [ insert no-button mouse joke here ]
    Today Apple Computer again revolutionizes the computer industry again by unveiling the no-button mouse! This amazing breakthrough once again affirms apples commitment to simple computing interfaces "for the rest of us".

  15. Re:MSTF is public on Microsoft: The Faint Smell of Rot · · Score: 1

    But as others point out MS has upwards of 50 billion in cash & short term investments. That is one mighty war chest to fight off a take over like that. So while I agree it is possible I think the cost is simply too great for a single entity to pull the financial resources together to attempt such a take over.

    The document bit is from Wally, dont' remember anything about forest workers though.

  17. Re:Wait for it....wait...wait.... on Microsoft's AntiSpyware Disabled by Spyware · · Score: 1

    I'm surprised it took this long and that it does not also target Ad-Aware / Spybot. But what downright shocks me is how a cute little troll was not added to the article and rather a calm statement that this is not in fact spyware.

  18. Re:Finder Insecure File Creation Vulnerability on Mac OS X 10.3.8 Out, Security Update Released · · Score: 1

    Unless it's the house and booze talking that was reported two days ago. I'm sure 10.3.8 has been in freeze for at least a week if not more. But good to know and yes, defiantly needs to be fixed.

  21. Re:That's what I thought on Apple's Focus is Still Software · · Score: 1

    exactly, while I too wish apple would push the mini there is simply not much to say about it. You put up it's hardware specs, show off the price say it runs OS X (and can talk about all the software for it) and lastly show off the physical unit. People will look at it and all but we absorb information rapidly no need to dwell upon it.

  22. Re:Exactly!! on Apple's Focus is Still Software · · Score: 1

    Apples Application listing, Version Tracker and Macupdate are all great sites to find new software.
    Of course the best resource are all of the mac websties and forums, my home is Macnn. Two useful threads from there: What application do I use if I need to....? and Your top 5 [share|free]where (lots here).
