  1. Re:Time for Apple to cede some control? on OQO Hacker Claims World's Smallest OS X Machine · · Score: 0

    Apple Software Update probably does work on this OQO, it works on all OSx86 installs. It was specifically disabled on the Psystar machines because an update might break the OS. The updates can still be installed manually, even on Psystar.

  2. Re:It's very very simple on The Wrath of the Apple Tribe · · Score: 0

    I spent $600 to build a PC. I put OS X on it and absolutely love it. I almost never use Linux or Windows anymore.

  3. OS 9? on The Wrath of the Apple Tribe · · Score: 0

    If you have OS 9 you have to format the drive as HFS+ on the Mac, and then use a program like MacDrive to read it on Windows. The ethernet cable should be all you need though.

  4. Re:Reason 1283948 why Apple Sucks... on The Wrath of the Apple Tribe · · Score: 0

    You can use a regular ethernet cable to plug the imac into a pc, turn on smb sharing and it will work. Any flash drive should work, I've used dozens of them in old macs, they work fine. Just make sure its formated as FAT32. If that's too complicated for you, go buy any flash drive off the shelf at Best Buy or Wal Mart and it will work.

    I've been warned by my ISP 3 times.

    I use Azureus. I think it's one of the best torrent clients for mac.

  7. Re:Finally! on Steve Jobs Announces iPhone SDK · · Score: 0

    I think thats right. There were 3 unlock hacks, and the update screwed one of them. If they wanted to, they could have went after all the hacks.

  8. You can install Mac OS X on a generic PC on Ubuntu Linux vs. Mac OS X · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Search for a torrent of the hacked OS.

  9. In Canada they vote on paper on Maryland Tests Voting Machine, Declares Success · · Score: 0, Troll

    In Canada they vote on paper and count the votes by hand. They have the votes counted by the next day.

    I'm certain Bush will win everywhere these machines are used.

  10. The War on Terror is my reason to vote for Kerry on Political Yard Sign Wars Wage as Election Nears · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Just stop right there. Bush isn't responsible for 9/11. Nobody is responsible for the wicked acts of others. True, our intelligence systems failed us, but much of the failures were due to policies established under previous administrations--including your man Clinton. I refer you to the Toracelli principle if you doubt me.

    When Clinton was president he had a meeting about terrorism and Al Qaida at least once a week, sometimes everyday. Bush didn't have one meeting about terrorism in 7 months before 9/11. He appointed Cheney to head an anti-terrorism task-force, it never met once.

    Hindsight is 20/20. Were strategic mistakes made? Of course. Analysts are human. Military officials are human. George W. Bush is human. Hence, mistakes were made.

    Many of the problems were predicted in a report by the state department. It warned against allowing looting and disbanding the military. The Bush administration ignored it. The civilian administration in Iraq is being run by 20 year old kids who had applied to be interns at the Heritage Foundation.

    Some of these criticisms even fall out of the president's scope at times such as: the flu vaccine shortage or the Abu Graive prision abuse.

    Bush had Whitehouse lawyers write papers on how he could legally allow prisoners to be tortured.


    The government of Iran just endorsed Bush, probably because he took care of their main enemy.

    Bush is using 9/11 for his own political advantage, he acts like its the best thing that happend to him. It was an inteligence failure that happend on his watch. Roosevelt never used Perl Harber in his campaign for reelection, it was a failure. Roosevelt had investigations into Perl Harber, Bush tried repetedly to block the 9/11 commision. Now the Bush administration is preventing a CIA report on 9/11 from being released untill after the election.
