Word on the street is that certain golden frisbees got committed to the mails today, en route to the printer. Expected ship date the first week in Nov.

You heard it here first..

weird.... my right speaker is much louder than my left and its bothering the hell out of me. I cant figure out what the hell is going on.

iPod? Check.

Mail.app? Check.

Ability to read your e-mail on your iPod? Umm...

Check!

Interesting stuff. I don't have an iPod (yet... will get mine in November!) to check this out but it looks promising.

My applications have been "unexpectadly quitting" all over the flippin place! My log has been growing to crazy new lengths. Does anyone, in simple English, know what's going on?

Thanks!

Every once in a while, such as now, a little beach ball appears as my cursor only when I mouse over either the ichat icon in the menu bar or the clock. Mousing over the rest of the screen, the cursor appears normal. When this happens, I am unable to access ichat via the menu bar but I can still work it through the application window. I have tried relaunching the finder and that doesn't help. Any ideas? This is a minor annoyance but I am easily annoyed. Thanks!

OK, little bit a problem.

I've got stories that are being written and edited on both windows and macs, and I NEED to have a file format that will go across platforms without being fubared. Using something other than plain text makes PageMaker 7 start adding styles automatically at times (at least with M$ word files it does).

Plain text is giving me HUGE headaches because of different text encodings. What file format can i use that M$ Word will open by default, but I can edit on a mac without Office (or do I need M$ office?)

I thought these cross-platform headaches would be over with, but ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!. Also, appleworks 6 saving as plain text didn't really save as plain text. I've GOT to have a good solution to this, because I've got an eMac that won't be able to be used unless I solve this problem.

Making a winblows machine open a text file with M$ word by default doesn't work because of something weird with the roaming profiles here at my school.

I HATE working with winblows.

Downgrade to 10.2.6 using this instruction. Be sure to follow it exactly. I would also recommend backing up your data, just in case and obviously I'm not liable for any mayhem this causes. I sincerely doubt you'd have any problem following this instruction, but ya never know.

For the record, 10.2.8 installed flawlessly on my 400 mhz G3 PowerMac.

This might be slightly OT, but...
The Apple Store near Cleveland Ohio is opening next month, and myself and my small horde of drooling Mac addicts are planning on Overnighting for it. Some questions...

1) Have you ever Overnighted for a grand opening? If so, what was it like? What can we expect?
2) For the other Mac Fans in the area, are you planning on coming out to Overnight? Let me know!

Thanks.

So I asked at school if they had Disk Warrior, and they did :) So i ran it, but I had to run it from 9.2. Does this work on my whole hard drive, or does it only do 9.2 stuff? Will I have to upgrade to DW 3 to have any effect on my 10.1? And another thing, will it hurt if I run DW on an iPod hard drive? what would it do?
