I can report the following experience on a 15in 1Ghz Powerbook G4:
After upgrading to 10.2.4 the battery life went down to 02:05 hrs while I used to get 03:45 under the same conditions.
Applecare suggested resetting the PMU (a liddle button -see their website on where this is) and the PRAM (hold opt-apple-P-R duing the boot and wait for 4 chimes). I did this, after draining the battery and just measured the battery life as being restored to 04:05 hrs!
It supports any web browser, as you might expect a webmail app to, works fine
with OmniWeb in particular
(unlike the rest of iTools which complains
unless you change the ID string)
Rather that port KDE via XDarwin would it not make more sense to port the apps vie a port of the QT toolkit to Aqua?
I think QT is available for OS X, the web page at
Trolltech appears to say so
http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt/index.html
I don't know if this means you get an Aqua look 'n feel...
I am a regular slashdot reader for my sins. Finally an incentive to actually sign up.
I am amused to see the story got on the front pages this time, sorry that I had to be wrong to achieve this feat!
hope you all read the web page and about the science of starlight (and color!)
http://www.pha.jhu.edu/~kgb/cosspec/
and it's much more complicated than 'averaging 3 numbers'. The color is a volume-averaged - deredshifted (otherwise it would not be very meaningful) sum of all starlight. Those of you with www skills will be able to track down the origin of the erroneous software I will not deprecate it here.

p.s. the color suggestions are poring in, my favorite so far is 'cosmic latte'

I hope this info proves useful to people.
i.e. is the intention that all of their future software will be layered on top ot .NET ?
This Apple exec is called Joswiak? Is that a quantum superposition of Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak? Will Apple be releasing a Quantum G5?
