Maybe XCode 1.5 wasn't included with Panther because Panther was released almost a year prior? XCode 1.5 was just released like last month with Panther October of 2003. X11 is on the 3rd cd and is aboue 4 -5 clicks to install.
Here in Houston we have a nice College Station. It plays really good music, ranging from mozart to squarepusher to the postal service. Of course it damn well better be, since it is run by Rice Uni... Tune in at 91.7 (and no, I am not a student at Rice, it's just the only decent station in Houston)
That is interesting, along with the other replies to your reply they seem to be having the same problem with the trashing of the disk on their notebooks. The machine that I have that has 256megs of ram is a Blue and White with a G4 upgraded in it and it never swaps. Maybe it is a difference between desktops and laptops?
i call bs.
OS X runs perfect here on two different machines, one with 256 and the other with 384 megs of ram. Things may run a little bit slow if you try to run a zillion programs all at once, but for the average user, 256 is fine.
most excellent advice, however I would like to expand a tiny bit further with the researching of professors. I found that the rate my professor is most excellent and has had every teacher but 1 of the ones I looked up for this semister (freshman in year, but sophmore in hours/credits).
Yep, the Segal Channel was AWESOME. I went to a contest at some school and won 20 years of it free. It hooked up via a cable going into a special cartirdge and was most excellent. As I recall, it had 50 games each month, some of which were there last month, 3 or 4 of which were full timed demo of games that weren't out yet. Nothing like leaving your Sega on for 3 days so you could be a game...
I find the pictures VERY easy to find when I want to edit them in photoshop. Here is what I do, I have iPhoto open, I open up photoshop go File->Open then I *drag* the photo I want from iPhoto to the Open File dialoge. As far as duplicates go, when importing photos it says something to the effect of "hey! there is a duplicate photo here do you want to re-import it anyway?". Which *should* help solve your duplicates problem when using iPhoto;-)
What would remove most of all these problems, if one has already created accounts for more than 2 of their services is to allow one to link accounts (if they provide a username/password of course). Once linked this would allow one to login to orkut using any number of their linked usernames/passwords. Atleast, that's what I hope for as its a pain to have one login for gmail (which has been unaccessable here lately) and another one for orkut.
I do agree, that the outlet thing can be kind of a pain, but, its not that big of a pain to me.I only have IB generate the code when I first create the ui. After that, if I add an outlet, its not that hard (and faster) for me to type

I am using VS.net 2003. I may give 2005 a whirl, but can't right now as I am in the middle of a project. (well I could, but I don't want to break anything etc..). I will probably stick with 2003 though, as it works and honestly, I don't like developing on windows.
However, I do agree, that in some cases, it is easier to crank out apps in C# than in ObjC/Cocoa, I don't like.net because it feels rather...uneligant in design...compared to Cocoa. But it all comes down to what os, language and development environment one prefers. I myself love os x, learned to love objc, and while XCode could be better, I think its damn good for free.
Konfabulator, I understand where you are comming from. But since how does adding rss support to safari all of a sudden make netnewswirte obosolete? Netnews Wire is a great app, and will still serve a purpose. Besides, RSS is a logical new feature to add to Safari anyways, with all of these blogs/news sites etc. to keep track of, I don't really want get a whole group of bookmarks and "Open in tabs" it. It is a waste of bandwidth (both ends) and a waste of time if there isn't an update. RSS will be the new bookmarks, except you will only check them when there is updated content.
they are adding tons of value to samba. The config tools for samba, and every other damon on the system. Not to mention support, so one can ring them when someone isn't working right. So when one pays $500 dollars for OS X Server, they are not just paying for samba and a default config. They are paying for samba/apache/whateverftpd/everything else with a REALLY nice (atleast as of panther, compared to configuration tools on Windows2k/Linux) set of configuration tools for them, as well as support AND 5 client licenses, which alone would run over 500 dollars...
but isn't WebObjects J2EE? As I have heard (I havn't had a reason to mess with WebObjects yet), but it is supposed to be easy as hell to program j2ee apps in. Like as easy if not easier than asp.net. I highly doubt apple would get behind mono, why should they when.net sucks (even with vs.net it sucks) compared to cocoa (yes, i do program with both,.net for a living and cocoa the rest of the time).
but isn't pdf an open format while Flash is not? I agree, flash sucks. It is only decent for funny cartoons. Entire sites "written" with flash like to eat all of my cpu as well, because the "designer" thinks that 'hey11 you are visting t3h sitez0r, j00 mu5t w4nt t0 d3dic4t3 a11 of j00r comput0rzing p0w3rz to m3 site!!11'. Screw that, sites that are written in flash automaticlly get a nice entry in my host file to 0.0.0.0.
that I just installed Firefox on two of my reletaives computers. Both of which REALLY like the idea not getting popups or spyware. They liked the look of it, liked the importing all their settings/bookmarks. Made the switch just in time I guess..now let's hope that mods read more than the title before modding me a troll/flamebait;-)
We used to have this flying lawnmower that my dad got back in the 60's. It had no wheels, just a fiber glass body, a motor and a blade. It flew on a cushion of air created from the blade spinning. It was called a Flymo 19 or something like that..
Yes, it has worked before. If you recall back to the civil rights time frame there was a bus company in montgomery alabama that got boycotted by black riders. Basicly, in the end, they stopped riding, bus company almost goes broke and finally compiles, black people could sit wherever they wanted and didn't have to move if someone else wanted to sit there. Atleast that's the jist of the story. So to answer your question, yes, boycotts work, it just requires people to stick to it.

that is gpl compliant. It just dosn't contain 100% "free software"

getting rid of that annoying coworker...well atleast temporarly. ping -l 102400000000 [insert annoying coworker's ip here]
The Socket 7 AMD chips went to 550MHz. I recall it being an extra 50 bucks or so when picking out a cpu back then (went with 500MHz)
what you forgot to mention is that you get more fluent with the more margaritas you drink :-)

did you just say knowledgeable and CompUSA in the same sentance? Thanks! I needed a laugh today :-D
phheww, i was worried I wouldn't be able to use my mac there for a second...
its a joke, laugh.
