It will show up in retail stores, atleast Apple stores on Friday. My copy shipped today via 2 day shipping, so in theory it should arrive Friday :) Oh, just as a hint for ordering pre-release software from Apple, always pick the cheap ground shipping. Every piece of pre-release software I've...

Turning off shadows and borders more the doubled the usable speed for me :) Brian

You don't need a new videocard, yours already supports dual monitors. You can buy an ADC to VGA adaptor, and a DVI to VGA adaptor, total cost for both, around $50-70 depending on where you buy them. Brian

A few questions: Has it always been this slow in iPhoto or has it gotten slower? How many images do you have in iPhoto? Have you used any of the tricks to speed up iPhoto such as turning off shadows and borders and closing film roles? What application in XP was so fast for what you were...

.bash_profile is for bash what .profile is to sh/ksh. They use .bash_profile so sh/ksh doesn't get pissed if you run them and have bash commands that aren't compatible with sh/ksh in .profile. Brian

Ahhh, you're going down by where Mama G's is. I used to live in a townhouse the other direction on 30 off of 94. The community center is behind Cub Foods right on Weaver Lake Road past Elm Creek Blvd. I'm just past where Main Street and Weaver Lake Road meet.

Where in Maple Grove? I can see the community center out my back window :) Brian

Are you moving out of the Twin Cities? Or just elsewhere in the Cities? I wonder how many of us there are on here anyways... Brian

See this thread on if it's worth it to you or not... http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=40014&highlight=.Mac Brian

XGrid makes making small clusters simple. XGrid is not usable for a cluster that has 100 different nodes, let alone 1,000 nodes. Clustering technology doesn't scale very well, what works for 5 hosts won't work for 500, different technologies are used. This is not even to mention the...

Bummer, it's just grey scale, I was hoping it was one of the color ones that VueScan actually supports... Brian

1) keep one big partition. The only benefit you'll really get from having multiple, it's easier to have multiple copies of OS X installed, say you can do a CarbonCopyClone from one partition to another, and upgrade that copy, if the upgrade fails, you just boot to the original. 2) Copy them :)...

There was a long thread on this on macslash not long ago (http://www.macslash.org/AskMacSlash/02/12/20/2341217.shtml) many many different options are talked about, which ones works for you, depends on what your needs are. Brian

You can buy an ATI Radeon 9000 Pro Mac Edition for around $170 which supports dual heads. It has an ADC and a DVI port (with an DVI to VGA adaptor). Brian

The linksys WUSB54G is a USB 802.11G adaptor. It is powered off of the USB bus, just velcro it to the lid of the laptop. It works with both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0. Now, if it works with OS X is unknown, you can give it a try tho. Brian

Just noticed on the main .Mac page that iPhoto 4 has a feature I've been dieing for. It now has the ability to edit previously published albums on your .Mac account. No having to use the crappy web based editing tool! I hope iLife arrives at my house on Friday.... Brian

Whats the model number on it? :) Brian

PCI-X is backwards compatible with PCI. PCI-X is just an extension to PCI, think of it like USB 1.1 and USB 2.0, ones faster then the other, but they use the same connectors, and are backwards compatible. Brian

Well, if you want to drop around $200 or so, you can get a plextor 40x12x40x scsi cdrw drive. Or, you can spend around $40 and get an HP 32x4x8x scsi cdrw drive. Depends on what you want to spend :) Brian
