for as long as I've had my iBook G4 I've used SideTrack to make the top right corner right click (it supports different tasks for all 4 corners) and the top and right edges as horizontal and vetical scrollbars.
well if you're genuine then here's a virtual screenshot:

sorry I thought you were looking for an answer, but you just want to bitch. one hand? wtf. guess I got caught by a classic "one mouse button" troll. you haven't even seen a mac have you?
>But where's the picture file? Um, show-in-Finder option? Nope.
um, yep.
in fact 2 options: show edited photo in finder or show a backed-up original.
you can also use export it if you want to resize or change format.
or you can just drag the photo to where you want if you're fine with the size/format etc.
there are probably easy solutions to your other complaints, wasn't paying much attention but this one caught my attention as I use iphoto a lot. it rules.
aside from justifying the horrors done by others he has plenty of his own.
his signature is all over the documents authorising the cover up of child-raping priests. he would be in jail if not for the diplomatic immunity he has as head of state for Vatican City.
the policy he implemented would be to have another priest hear the child-raping-priest's confession, thereby satisfying the need for justice in god's eyes. the raped child would then be told that since catholic confession is a sacrament, any discussion of what had happened to them with parents, police, councillors etc. would violate the sanctity of confession and the *child* would then burn forever in hell. the catholic church has now spent over $1 billion in America alone in compensation because for all their goodness they couldn't recognise that raping children was not a Good Thing.
this is also the pope that labelled a comedian who publically disagreed with him a "terrorist".
when I travel and want to watch TV/movies I copy them to hard drive anyway. even if I don't encode the TV/movie, I rip the DVD so I'm accessing the hard drive and not the optical drive so as to increase battery life.
omg you're not genuinely unaware of the fact that for electronics, smaller is generally more advanced and hence more expensive are you?
if not, why do you constantly talk about its price in terms of its size? ("For a little tiny thing like that...", "the cost of these small machines...")
>Yes, there is USB, so we'lll need to keep a few USB CD-Rom drives around for these things
oh god, the horror.
with all those exclamation points I thought you'd found something interesting, but turns out you answered your own question (even ignoring remote drive capabilities).
>I'll wait a couple of months after Xmas and buy a Wii when they're cheaper
The Wii has been pretty much sold out since it was released and so far there has been no price drop.
Nintendo have already sold more Wiis than MS's Xbox 360, and in less time. So their production rate is already higher then MS.
Is it really simpler to believe that Nintendo has an intrinsically much greater production capability than even Microsoft, yet is intentionally limiting production on a product they sell for profit just to create scarcity and the illusion of demand? Those tactics HAVE been used by companies, but usually at launch, not a year later. Surely actual demand for the product produced by a combination of appealing to the casual (Wii Sports/Wii Fitness) and hardcore (Metroid/Mario Galaxy/Smash) audiences is a far simpler explanation than such conspiracies?
I don't know on what basis you expect a post-Christmas price drop, unless you mean you should be able to buy one at the actual price and not an inflated ebay price.
you are implicitly making the claim that the two are equally expected interpretations. I consider A to be far more reasonable than B simply due to the personal nature of customer service. few people look at the entire experience of customers and instead make judgements based on their previous experience of the same or similar companies.
plus, to get back to the original post, the meaning was clear according to the idea that if there are 2 interpretations and one doesn't seem to make sense, simply go with the other one. hence the failing at comprehension.
I used to really like Amazon's service, and still use them a lot, but find myself liking, and using, them less.
It started with free delivery on orders over a certain amount. Which is great since P&P used to negate the saving of buying CDs etc. online in the first place. Although free delivery orders didn't have a guaranteed time, they usually only a day or so slower than first class. But then the free option started taking longer to arrive, and now seems like they already deliberately delay sending out orders for a week or so just to guarantee the "up to 5" extra days.
The more amazon do this BS, the more often I go with another company rather than pay their premium for acceptable customer service. I used to just go with amazon for convenience even if they were a tiny bit more expense. Now they've made it a purely numerical decision.
> I'm getting a little sick of hearing about 'potential' breakthroughs. I want something we can start using right now.
attention all researchers: you have been warned. from here on out it's all or nothing. no scientific method. no peer review. no journals. no conferences. no progress. we demand immediate and absolute salvation.
> It's hard to be patient when people you care about are sick or dying.
and we all know that if something is hard then you simply shouldn't have to do it, right?
>So when we need to see something far away, can anyone explain why we need to make the actual lenses bigger?
larger apertures collect more light, so you can see fainter objects.
an alternate method to get more light (increase signal to noise) is to observe for a long time and 'average' the images, but this method smears out any features that change quicker than your observation time.
>If it was as your argument suggests, then why was the 2nd one dropped?
the second one was a different design, so it was simply a experiment. if it was a purely military decision, then why give up a proven design in favour of an experimental one?
I've also heard that Japan was actually ready to surrender before the first bomb was dropped.
I'm not completely sure my information is correct but am fairly certain Americans were not the "good guys". it was a war ffs. they were at best "generally less horrific than the other guys". that's how it goes.
>Actually both were very much military targets - Nagasaki was a major Naval base/HQ, and Hiroshima was Army.
the targets were (also) chosen as they had not been attacked so far by conventional bombs. they were therefore ideal candidates to show the power of a single bomb.
not that I think the aim was to kill civilians, just to make the clearest message.
>Even if the research, development and manufacture of a technology in it self may be worth millions, it can be totally worthless to an individual...
yeah, the problem does seem to be too many "individuals" who feel the need to point out what products they don't like and are not going to buy and are not interested in reading about.
>If I don't buy it because it's too expensive, can I then claim it's too expensive?
of course, but that is true of all bleeding-edge/high-end products. do you apply this principle to all internet forums and products, or just those that have an Apple badge on them?
>Funny you should say that... I can essentially synchronize contacts, mail and many other things automatically with the Nokia e90 too
how does/would it handle music, music videos, podcasts, video podcasts, movies, photo libraries, playlists and audiobooks?
I use bluetooth sync on my phone for contacts and calendars, but have no interest in wirelessly syncing an ipod. the benefit of wire syncing is not just speed, but you GAIN battery charge by doing it instead of taking a hit.
maybe Apple could allow small amount of data to be synced wirelessly, but imo that would just get messy. the benefit of iTunes syncing is you plug in your ipod and EVERYTHING is automatically updated.

>What use is a $180 OS if you can't run it anywhere?
how about ALL THE USE I COULD POSSIBLY NEED
what use is an OS I can run anywhere if I only own a single computer - a Mac?
if Apple's products don't suit your needs then shop elsewhere. those of us who are happy are bored of your childish bitching.

you've already been owned by the other replies so I'll sum it up for you:
customer service is not a zero sum game.
No he didn't. You fail at comprehension.

>Honestly, I don't think a interface that smudges to the point where you need to clean it continuously to continue using it, is a good idea.
what do you mean by "need" to clean it?
the screen is bright enough that smudges aren't seen when the it is in use.
if you have OCD and need everything to constantly be clean then that's your problem, not the iPhone's.
