  1. Re:You obviously don't have a Mac on Buying International Keyboards? · · Score: 1

    Indeed. Not only is the Euro easy to access, so are all of the diacritical/accent marks, as well as many symbols such as , , etc. They're all accessed in the same easy way: option+a key or option+shift+a key.

  2. REALBasic on Cross-platform Computer-Based Training? · · Score: 2, Informative

    There's a program called REALBasic out for Mac (and maybe PC as well) that can develop multimediaish programs for Windows, MacOS 9.1 and less, and MacOS X+ with the same code. I've never used it, but as far as I know, it's quite good, graphical, pretty easy to learn/use, etc. Not sure if this solves what you are trying to solve, but good luck!

  3. Another book on Physics Books for the Novice? · · Score: 1

    The best physics-theory-for-the-layperson books that I've /ever/ read are 'Hyperspace' by Dr. Michio Kaku and 'Beyond Einstein' by Kaku as well. I highly recommend them!

  4. Not Open Source, but... on Open Source Analog to Microsoft's Index Server? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    It's not open source, but Sherlock for MacOS (part of the OS) has always featured hard drive or folder indexing features that can scan contents of documents fairly quickly and efficiently. I've not seen its performance on a /huge/ archive, though.
