my local apple dealer told me I could come there and listen to both, creature and the soundsticks, which are both said to be good speakers, and I'll see which sound better to me. Still don't know though, usb or not? what difference does it make

so, from what I understand, I just have to buy speakers with a good name (brand), and from there on, it's the price that tells which is better. right?

So, I've got my G4 iMac, which needs a new sound system (currently plugged into a 20 year-old stereo = bad). So I'd like to hear your suggestions. Mostly I need speakers for listening to music First of all, what are the benefits of plugging my speakers via usb rather than via normal audio...

I used to use Proteus, but the moment it became shareware, I started looking for an alternative. :)

yes, use Adium. It's free, customizable, and it works. ;)

or just tell me what app it is & where I get it, so I can try running it and see if it works for me

type this into terminal "ls -al /Applications/YOUR_APP.app/Contents/MacOS" and copy/paste the output here.

but ofcourse you did not type "YOUR_APP.app" but replaced it with the name of your application, which lies in the Applications folder, right? :confused:

Paul C: first you said nothing happens when you open the app. In your next post you mention a message. Now tell us, exactly what happens when you doubleclick your .app file

what gfx card do u have?

open ur terminal type in "chmod -R +x /Applications/YOUR_APP.app" and try opening the app again

hmm, the ones who have tried it, please post your sys specs and the game performance (sys requirements are always wrong ;)). I don't even dare to try it on my 700mhz imac ;)

you can do all that with x-chat.

you can put the tab bar anywhere you want (left / top / right / bottom)

X-Chat aqua x-chat is a cross-platform irc client, it's free (and the best, might I add) and very customizable. This is a good os x port of it. It will feel weird at first, but once you get used to it and customize it to fit your needs, you'll see it's much better than mirc

freaky: but you are still running a firewall on your OS X machine, which prevented you from pinging. and obviously your router doesn't block icmp ports and his does.

MLJ_osxcom: that command cannot help you if you are behind a router. freaky was running a firewall on his mac, that's why it worked. You have to figure out how to open icmp ports on your router

weird...

no problem... though I think the change is not permanent (it will be gone when you reboot), how to do that, I do not know, I have no idea where os x keeps its configuration files for stuff like this

just open all ports of type "icmp", which are used for ping, traceroute etc. the command on FreeBSD looks like this: ipfw add 1 allow icmp from any to any it should be the same on os x. must be run as root (sudo would do)
