    And now, the disappearing mouse!

    Yup, I have this problem too. It happens when I attempt to switch to a classic app from a macos x native application by clicking the classic window. It doesn't seem to happen if you switch to the classic app by clicking its icon the the dock, so that's a reasonable workaround. Still, it's...

    Any help with 2 printer config issues would be much appreciated! Our config is as follows: we have a 10bT ethernet. Our printers (an old HP Laserjet 4ML and a HP Deskjet 970Cse) are attached to a HP JetDirect500X print server sitting out on the net. My old 8500 happily saw both printers...
