I got the files off my TiVo but I can't for the life of me figure out how to use ffmpegX to convert them to work on my PSP. Is it so against the law and evil that I want to watch Robot Chicken on my PSP from my TiVo??
Panther 7b85 has iCal 1.5.1 but iSync 1.2.0, Software update does pick up iSync 1.2.1 on Panther though. The Drawer is great, its easier to get more work done, Camino's auto expanding trick would be a welcomed addition however. The pop up window was a pain because it disapeared when you clicked over to another application but still wanted to read your notes in iCal!!
I think there is worlds of difference between HUMAN rights and IP rights.Majority vote should not overrule HUMAN rights, but I think they shoudl overrule IP rights.
I agree, if the majority of people in America and a majority of artists support listening to MP3s before you buy a CD then it should be legal. The RIAA lobbyists should be illegal. When did our countries priorities get so f'd up?
They have an 800 number. ( 1-800-BAD-BEAT ) Lets All call it everyday. And waste their time. They have to pay for the call, and someone on the other end to take a report possibly. I know they claim that file sharing is illegal but I do not see any difference from that to copying songs to a mix tape, to simply having freinds over and all listening to my stereo. If it is truely art, then why not let everyone enjoy it. Listening to an mp3 you dowloaded does not STOP you from also buying the CD. They are NOT mutually exclusive. Or supporting artists in other ways, (think Fugazi... Merchadise)
We won the war for USED CDs, we can win this one too. Don't lose the faith!
New new Macs at Macworld... Its too soon to rev any of the lines, except MAYBE an iMac price drop or speed boost. BUT...
New Xserve and XRAID with firewire 2, 800Mbps for RAID makes sense. And those who need that much RAID can afford the new technology.
Video iPod, unlikely. Color iPod, maybe. More likely to see something that allows us to connect our Macs full of mp3s to our stereo over Airport.
I am hoping for an 802.11g Card with built in BlueTooth. This would allow Apple to sell BT Mice and Keyboards, and allow ALL recent Macs a cheap upgrade to BT! Also new base station.. maybe it will have a few surprises!
When will the book publishers start bitching about companies letting employees share books they bought? This is all going to far, and on a side note since when do you have to use stars in Hitlers name? SO he killed people we can't say his name or we are anti semetic, god people have become so PATHETIC!!!!
Stop the f'ing lawsuits and lets all just grow up and realize we are not perfect and move on!!!
MacWorld was way cool back when I was in college, we went every year, it was a blast. But that was 1992. Now we have the "internet" and MacWorld is pretty muh useless except for the KeyNote product release movie. Fuck it, just broadcast a Quicktime movie of Jobs and let people download the same demos they would get at the show. Hell from what I hear nobody even gives out free t shirts anymore. Why bother?
Apple really needs a product that allows you to sync your iBook/Powerbook back to your iMac/G4 Tower at the end of a day. I hate having 2 home Directories... and losing contacts.. or not having my full iPhoto library with me. Keeping your home dir on a MacOS X Server doesn't do much in this case either.
New Plot: The galactic Empire is upset about these rebels who use the Galactic Internet to illegally swap music and video. See what we never knew was teh Jedi's were just a bunch of mp3 pirates... Now with Clone troopers to defend the artists right, no illegally aquired mp3 will EVER be listened to again! In the later movies the rebels will forcefully aquire there right to trade music freely... see ROTJ etc
ok lets think about this, how long did LaserDisk really last? how long will DVD last? In all likelyness we will have replaces DVD with some increibly small media in 5 years, and we will look back and say remember when we used to have DVDs and hard drives were magnetic platters, god, and 1 GB was a LOT? now we have __ insert name here __ and it hold 40 billion terrabytes on a matchbook size disc. Face if Star Wars DVD isnt out by mid 2000, it WONT HAPPEN!!!
we have known about this for a while... supposedly in the rainbow of iMac colors... and based on the Palm Pilot... hence the reason apple pushed so har for the recent MacPak 2 and helped serve it off their FTP servers!
Guess what, no one needs 40 million different Word Processors!!! I dont sit there and get upset that my Mac only has say 10,000 peices of software for it, when my Windows machine has 1,000,000. After you get past about 20 or so you use, the rest either suck or are of no use to you! For instance, even if no one made anotehr Paint program or Text editor for the Mac, i would stil be happy cause i think BBEdit and Photoshop satisfy my needs perfectly. And on linux, even if no one ports there Application Server, PHP3 works great for me, better than ANY shrinkwrapped package i have seen. And are we forgetting, Perl? DO we need a shrinkwrapped package for Perl now? Give it up Microsoft, number of peices of crap software != value of system.

Could this be related to the Pole Shift on the next passing of Nibiru / Planet X?

Only for OS 9 Clients.
Or Clients who are within network reach of the server. This would be useless for a Powerbook or iBook user.
