    Please don't call it a Macintosh

    all we are doing here is trying to guess what the future holds, and we are basing so many opinions on 1 simple fact: Apple will be using intel in the future. thats it. The bottom line is that we dont know what these two companies have in the pipeline. We dont know whether you will be able to buy...

    Performance of Intel-Macs

    "There has been some speculation that Apple's emracement of Intel processors will also allow the company to take advantage of off-the-shelf PC video cards." does that mean nvidia quadro cards???

    Performance of Intel-Macs

    Does anyone here think there will be a chance that the new high end intel based machines will have dual cores, like the ps3? After the announcement that ps3, xbox 2, and the new nintendo where going to use ibm based processors I did start to wonder their commitments to apple...

    where is my environment file for shell?

    ok, I really dont get it. I have just searched for /etc/profile /etc/bashrc ~/.profile and /etc/csh.cshrc /etc/csh.login /etc/csh.logout and .cshrc and I have no results. What do you mean by "/etc/profile"?

    where is my environment file for shell?

    bobw - I know where the terminal app is, what I cant find is the env file. You know the command "env" lists your environment, well, where is that file so I cant edit it? I mean is there a text file somewhere that I can open?

    where is my environment file for shell?

    I run Linux and OSX. In Linux I have shortcuts for my apps, which I make in the env.csh text file, for example: alias m5 /software/alias/maya/5.0/maya5.0.1 so this launched the app maya 5.0 when I type m5 in a shell. where is this file in osx?

    XSI on OSX petition

    blender is not high-end. Maya and XSI are the two main high end programs out there, though you could argue that Lightwave and 3DS max are too... its mainly in what you can do with custom scripts and plug-ins etc. No software out there comes with all the tools you will need, and the ability to...

    a process has begun, and its eating my RAM!

    Oh, well I seemed to have fixed the problem. I went into the info about that scan image and told it to open in photoshop instead of nikon scan, and then quit the qtimageserver app from AM, and it didnt restart... Very strange... though it is the first time I have used nikon scan ver4, so...

    a process has begun, and its eating my RAM!

    Ok, did quite a large scan tonight (350 mb) with all my scan settings turned to the max. It took a good 30 mins to complete, but after which everything was running slow (including my cursor which wasnt even visible - but I could still click - never seen that one before!) I restarted which...

    New PowerMacs at NAB

    "No, as interface elements, right now, are still partly dependant on bitmapped graphics. Sad, but true. And you don't want to look at them scaled up. Eww..." But there could be multiple images, say, apple could design the whole interface at a huge res, and then just have it scaled (using...

    image capture and my epson GT 7000

    I have just plugged my (rather old) epson GT 7000 USB scanner into my G4 MDD OS 10.3.7 and I noticed that there are no drivers on the epson site that support my config. so I use image capture to scan. However it seems unreliable, Im scanning some drawings and I am getting quite a lot of clipping...
