  1. Re:What about proprietary research? on MacResearch Introduces OpenMacGrid · · Score: 1

    Big Pharma have more than enough internal resources to do this sort of stuff, added to which I'd be very suprised if they wanted details of what would be a very early stage project potentially leaking into the public domain.

  2. Site is now back up on MacResearch Introduces OpenMacGrid · · Score: 1

    After being hit by slashdot the site appears to be up and running fine now.

  3. Re:Is cost a factor? on IBM iSeries or Windows server? · · Score: 1

    Explain the situation to IBM and see what deal they can offer, they are usually very willing to negotiate.

  4. What to compare on Conducting a Unix Desktop Usability Study? · · Score: 1

    KDE vs GNOME or Gentoo or yet another Linux desktop, whatever you choose someone will always want to include there own favourite. I'd include MacOSX (I know its not Linux) in the comparison, if only because it appears to designed around the interface. As new functionality is added the way the user will interact with it seems to be part of the design process rather than an afterthought.

  8. Many other clusters on New 640-Node Apple Xserve Cluster at UIUC · · Score: 1

    There are an increasing number of xserve clusters (http://www.macinchem.fsnet.co.uk/clusters.htm) why is this thought to be news worthy?

  9. Re:Xcode on Modern Mac Development? · · Score: 2, Informative

    Have a look at http://developer.apple.com/internet/scripting/phpa ppledevtools.html I suspect it is now possible to use Xcode for just about every language. I must admit I quite like having the same environment for all my projects from Applescript to ObjC

  10. Re:Xcode on Modern Mac Development? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    You can use Xcode to program in almost any language you choose Cocoa, C, Java, Ruby....

  11. Re:Ummm. on Beginning AppleScript · · Score: 1

    Actually there are a number of useful online resources http://www.apple.com/applescript/developers/ http://www.apple.com/applescript/studio/ http://www.macscripter.net/ and several very helpful lists at http://lists.apple.com/archives I've used Applescript Studio to build a couple of applications very quickly.
