I think that the two big shortcomings that I find with Pages is the lack of a full mail-merge functionality, which will be fixed with the release of "Lasso" or Numbers or Charts or whatever it is and the lack of a built-in thesaurus as I really don't like to copy and paste from the system wide one. The thesaurus issue is supposed to be fixed with the next version of Pages as well.
Not sure if you knew this shortcut, if you do please forgive this redundent post. I didn't know of this shortcut for the first year of my using OSX.
The thesaurus is available to any Cocoa app.
It's easy:
1) Hover over the word in question with the mouse
2) press "Apple Key" + "Control Key" + "D"
3) Dictionary window pops up.
4) Bottom left of pop-up window, select thesaurus.
It is so super simple. I use it nearly every day. Oh yeah, the dictionary.app must be in the applications folder, if you have moved it the shortcut no longer works.

I'm interested in hearing about other people's experiences in getting a tattoo removed. Please dispense with the usual "I would never get a tattoo", "tattoos are dumb", etc, etc, ad naseum. If you want to express your opinion on tattoos, start another thread. I only want to hear tattoo removal stories.
I'm currently getting one removed (YAG laser). Due to a number of coverups and the size of the damn thing, I've been getting treatments for quite a while now. We're talking many years and lots of moolah. So I'm particularly wondering how long it took (or is taking) for other people to get their tattoos removed, and where they got (or are getting) it done.
Thanks in advance for any responses.
Did you do a Johnny Depp and get "Winona Forever" and now regret it? Cause he just changed it to "Wino Forever"...... heh.

I can only see this as a good thing for Apple. They don't make much, if any, money off of iTMS sales. They run the store at cost or near that to fuel the sale of iPods. If some other company (or companies) can offer either (a) similar content for a lower price, or under a different business model (rental type music, for example) that works on FairPlay devices, read: iPods, then it's a reason to go buy MORE iPods. This generates money for Apple without the expense of running iTMS. Alternatively, if (b) a company is offering content that Apple is NOT offering (indie music, other TV shows, etc) then it's incetive for someone who wouldn't otherwise want an iPod to buy one.
The only bad thing for Apple would be if they created a compatible player, so you could buy a low priced music device and then buy iTMS content, which is basically at cost, without paying the so-called "iPod Tax". It doesn't sound like that's what's happening, though.

I'm looking to setup an external hard drive with my airport extreme.
Plan to use it for:
Time machine backups
Air drive
I'm looking for about 500GB to 1TB. Ideally, the drive will be setup near my TV, so it is important that it is quiet. Any suggestions for an external drive?
Order of importance:
1. Quiet
2. Size (500GB+)
3. Price
4. Looks
I did search, but surprisingly did not find many relevant posts. If you are aware of any, please link to them. Thanks!

I don't know where the line starts. For the i4, we went the other way though (out toward the Muvico theater).

So those of us that are still using 3gS's (that are on their last leg) should prolly go ahead and get a 4, and then wait for the 6...
Not so awesome news, I shoulda got a 4 a few months back then, oh well, maybe I'll wait to see what the white 4 looks like if its released on the 26th...
I am still using a 3g, how do you think people like me feel ??

If you know where you are going to be living, contact the apartment managers and find out who provides internet service there. Then look it up on the web.

Yeah would rather not updating cos I have loads of apps etc and it tales ages to restore etc
You will need to update to the latest 4.3.2 to JB.
I dont think the JB works for 4.3

I've not read it, but I'v heard of Scott Thompson, R. (2006) Quartz 2D graphics for Mac OS X developers (http://www.amazon.com/Quartz-2D-Graphics-Mac-Developers/dp/0321336631/).

There is no need to use a "Standard" account (what you call "user"), running the Mac as an admin is just fine. Many do this and experience no problems. I have run Mac OS X for seven years via admin accounts and have had not any problems with that.
If something needs access to system critical files or folders, it will ask for your admin password anyway.

I was there printing a paper this summer and they had this new stupid payment system for laser prints, it takes money out of a debit-style account (not bank related) everyone has. The Macs (15 iMacs in a room of 50 Dells) were not set up with the system, but I was told they would in the fall. I had to go run and get some paper to use with the printers the Macs were networked to.
Well, it's now fall. I came to the lab and found all the iMacs replaced with new Dells. :eek: There were a couple iMacs still there, but they were unhooked and turned with their screens facing the wall, crowded behind the Dells sitting in their places.
I bet the univeristy found they couldn't integrate the iMacs into their printing scheme easily and since bringing your own paper is much cheaper per sheet than paying 8 cents a page felt they had to remove the Macs.
So now I'm pissed. I used to work on papers at home and save them on my iDisk and access them for further editing and printing at school. But I can't access my iDisk from the PC's (they have network drive mapping locked up). Plus I'm just angry in general about them getting rid of all the Macs.
I was going to get a Powerbook when Tiger was released, but now I'm thinking of getting an old G3 iBook until then so I can still use a Mac on campus (Wi Fi all over the Union and libraries).

Hmm, yeah I think I've heard about that before. Thanks. I'll have to look around to see if there's a way to make it work with my mac, or I guess I could just use windows...

Unfortunately, your only choices are to stay at 3.2 or update to 4.3.2. Apple is no longer allowing 4.3.1 to be installed. There's a way to get around this restriction, but to do so you need to have SHSH saved, and since you just got your replacement device from Apple, there wouldn't be any SHSH saved for it.
To replicate your old iPad's settings onto the replacement iPad, you restore from the old iPad's backup. Right click on the iPad icon on the left-hand column in iTunes, and you'll see a menu option saying "restore form bakcup." However, backups from newer firmware sometimes don't work on older firmware, so you might need to update to 4.3.2 in order to restore from your old iPad's backup.
Personally, I'd update and wait for a JB for 4.3.2, hopefully it won't take too long for it to come out.

I wonder if users who have both PPC and Intel Macs will have to buy seperate copies of Leopard rather than just multiple license packs...
