    nice(1) screen saver?

    Not unless renice support has been implemented by the update. Has anyone tested renice to see if the update provides functionality for that feature.

    10.0.2

    Omniweb is commercial but you can use it for free. It will ask you for a license once a month if you choose to use it for free. Not sure what that makes it, freecommware, commfreeware? lol

    128-bit Airport Hack

    Why doesn't Apple use higher encryption in the first place? Granted it is a single that is constantly moving and would be hard to decrypt, but 40 bit is not high enough. I think Apple needs to offer airport cards that can use 64 and 128 bit encryption to save everyone some trouble.

    OS X speech silliness

    Well have you seen any commercials for Mac OS X yet? They may do one showing someone talking to the computer when its pre-installed this summer. I can see it now, a commercial to sell an iMac showing some kid playing chess by talking to the computer.

    Replace apps' OS 9 icons with OS X icons

    I may be wrong but I think that the pre-binding operation rebuilds the database your talking about. Look for x optimize on versiontracker and see if that works. It does the same thing that the optimization step in the updates does but it might do what your talking about. You can also set it...

    OmniWeb - What am I missing?

    I've have noticed that something improves in every release of Omniweb. The rc1 version launches in seconds and has several improvements that makes it load pages faster. Also noticed that the spinning arrows now stay there and turn gray when finished loading. You can also click on the spinning...

    OS X speech silliness

    Interesting to note is that the speech recognition improves as you use it. It will adapt to your style of talking. This is why if you try to use it on a friends computer who has been using it for months it won't recognize any of your commands but will work every time they say something. I...

    Finder chokes on too many pixels

    The first thing they need to do is make the Finder a Cocoa Application. The multiple monitors code was obviously rushed and should improve. Just my opinion on the matter.

    10.0.2

    Yeah Omniweb has gotten much faster. In 10.0.1 cf3 took around 10-18 bounces to launch. Omniweb rc1 under 10.0.2 takes less than 3 bounces to start!!

    Dude, you got cracked

    Talked to an Apple employee today and was told that they plan on releasing updates on a fairly regular basis to patch security holes in the unix layer. This is great news and your right that the software update control panel will make this really easy. I would like to see them include...

    OS X speech silliness

    The demos were in 9 mostly. I don't think most people realized it though. for an equally silly thing try the speech recognition's jokes. They are cheesy but it is interesting.

    Buy it!

    Just what is that last line supposed to be saying? Your post makes very little sense over all.

    OmniWeb - What am I missing?

    I know this thread is a bit old but if you haven't already you should get the rc1 version. It launches in under 3 bounces on my computer running 10.0.2.

    Software update cannot connect to the internet...

    To answer your question about getting a connection with PPPoE, yes it works on my computer connected through PPPoE. Have you disabled the dial-up under advanced in Network? I had application say that they could connect before I disabled that in Network. Good luck and I hope this is somewhat...

    Update 10.0.2 killed my Wallstreet (OS X boot) - HELP

    Well if you do a verbose boot you can find out for sure and call tech support or post the last line displayed before it stops. If its the scsi that's a bummer. Sorry that I can't help you anymore than this :(.

    iTunes Playback

    Where did you get 4P13? The official 10.0.2 update is 4P12 or did you just type the wrong number? Just wondering if you got a newer seed or something which could be the problem. I am replying because I have the same type of computer as you and have not had this problem myself. Did you...

    Cnet.com bias?

    Agreed. I have pretty much stopped going to c|net because of their obvious bias. Just how often do they update d/l.com anyway? I went there and they had just put up a piece of software that had been out for over a month as "just released". Screw c|net they aren't worth my time or bandwidth.

    Replace apps' OS 9 icons with OS X icons

    You can get an icon set from icons.cx that has replacement icons for IE's docs. Just rename them to the names used by IE and replace the files inside of it. Choose Show Package Contents from the context menu to get to the .icns files used by IE. Hope this is understandable. Most apps use...
