    Why Macs Suck

    Qion; You got me, I came to this thread all ready to get mad. :-) Those screenshots show him using the FTP utility. Maybe that's what he meant was "command line only"... Riiight.

    trackpad scroll - powerbook

    As DeltaMac said, it should be there under "Keyboard and Mouse" in Sytem Preferences, under the "trackpad" tab. "Trackpad Gestures: Use two fingers to scroll" Is this Powerbook new? My friend got a powerbook just a few weeks before I got mine, and his doesn't have the feature; the spot is empty...

    Yet another Personal Freedom Thread (was: School bans iPods)

    A lot of you guys have brought up points pertaining to human freedom and rights. Please remember the context of this debate; this is a highschool, instituted in order to educate teens. Within this highschool, there is no need for an iPod. Yes, you say that you can use it as a harddrive, etc. but...

    cool game idea- tell me what you think

    That does seem really cool... But ask yourself; given the increasing reality available in video games (and your idea seems to be simulating the business world as exactly as possible) when does it become more practical to just go out there and make a real company, and participate in the real...

    first mac?

    My first Apple was a G4 Powerbook, which I recieved about two weeks ago. I am finally free from the totalitarianistic rule of Windows! Wheee! By the way, what is the difference between "Apple" and "Mac"/"Macintosh" ? I'm too young to actually remember any products.

    Your Job

    I am a DJ at a radio station, and I think it rocks! I get to hang out in the studio, push buttions every 3 minutes or so, and then do my homework, or read the crazy conversations that you guys come up with. (I am a student, and I think the pay is really good.)

    Omg Powerbook!

    I have no idea why my shipping was so fast. Blind luck, or divine intervention in my favor, perhaps. Sorry. (This is a fairly delayed post, so by now, you may already have it, or will soon get it.)

    Mac Mods

    Thanks guys. JetwingX; I'll keep that in mind. I posted it here in response to a post by Chevy in this thread, but I'll do that in the future.

    Rumours and gossip

    I agree with Qion; the fact that Apple creates these new, innovative projects neccesarily attracts those who are attracted to inovation. Those people naturally want to talk about it, in places like this (enter from stage left: speculation). That's not to say that everyone here is like that, or...

    Macintosh Pride & The Apple Store at Tysons Corner, VA

    Padisha; I think that service problems are affecting the entire computer industry, and Apple's service woes are merely another expression of that fact. Granted, we are used to holding Apple up to a different, higher standard and they have lived up to that for the most part. They are attempting...

    Mac Mods

    In another thread, some of the moderators were talking about starting a thread for modifications. I, however, am quite impatient, so I'm starting this thread to get my question answered, hopefully. Feel free to post any of your questions about mods/hacks too. Question: I just bought a...

    Wierd! I was just looking for a thread about modding, and I found this one! Obviously, I think it would be a great idea.

    wow

    I'm one of those "readers". Most of the time I just read the posts, and only reply when I have something really good to say. 30,000 is HUGE! I had no idea! Well, let me say that I really enjoy reading all this stuff; you guys are a lot of fun to hang out with in a detached sort of way. ;-)

    Mac under attack...

    I would tend to agree with padishahemperor; those people who make and distribute viruses are users of Linux and Unix systems, and they are specifically targeting Windows because they don't like it. Apple, and their OS, have the respect of these people, and because of this, will be free for the...

    Omg Powerbook!

    It's here! They shipped it by FedEx, and as far as I can figure out, it was in Alaska last night. Well, 11:30 this morning, up comes the FedEx guy (I'm on the east coast). That's some impressive shipping. I'm typing on it right now, and I think I'm the happiest guy in the forum. Powermac- You'll...

    Omg Powerbook!

    After 24 hours or so, I finally figured out what BTO means. It's built to order...right? Jeez I'm blond. I thought all the Powerbooks were BTO, more or less. I mean, you get to choose how much ram, and what harddrive, etc. Did you get to customize it more than that? Mine's been shipped, but it's...
