Mac MMORPGs are not nearly as easy to find as PC ones. There are hundreds of less MMORPGs around for Macs than there are for PCs. Everyone has different gaming preferences that they need in order to enjoy a game. For some people graphics are really important; for others price is really important and so [...]

So you want those stylized lines that Illustrator is known for, eh? Don’t have the cash to shell out for CS3? Yeah, been there. Inkscape feels your pain.
I heard about this a while ago and since have picked up Illustrator CS3. This thing isn’t really bad at all. Usually freeware and digital art [...]

Robert Gates, the United States Secretary of Defense, recently said something to the effect that he is a low tech guy and doesn’t even use email. This is paired with a recent announcement from the man himself, George W., that he’s been using the Googles lately.
I understand that both of their times were a lot [...]

When I first came across this piece, I have to admit that I ended up reading it twice. Could this be a fluke with a specific batch of bad parts? Well, it certainly does not appear to be that simple. Unfortunately, it seems as if Mac Pro owners need to rethink their choice of product [...]

Frankly, this reminds me of using Linux software repositories for keeping software up to date on another *nix platform. Wild as it may seem, it I can see OS X making improvements that I have had for a long time elsewhere. But that is neither here nor there I suppose. Moving on.
The idea is simple [...]

Over at ZD-Net they are citing a French source that is making a big deal out of the fact that one, yes one, single Mac Pro owner says his computer made him sick. In the article it states that testing has shown that the Mac is giving off benzene. The French article uses a translator [...]

Last month, an eWeek writer did a analysis on Average Selling Prices for Windows PCs vs. Macs. The conclusion should not shock anybody: Macs are more expensive, twice as expensive to be exact. So that begs two questions: (1) Why are they continuing to sell so well (overall market share aside) and (2) why do [...]

Previously, I spoke of providing a decent backup solution for new computer users who are making a new PC purchase. Well, after doing a little research, I found a solution that is not only cross platform, it is dead simple to use. It’s calledCrashPlan.
I first set up CrashPlan on my Ubuntu notebook. After extracting the [...]

The coming battle between the latest company to offer Mac clones (Psystar) and Apple is set to be a stellar one. Psystar really took things to the next level through hiring fairly competent legal assistance in dealing with Apple’s lawsuit against them. Will they win? I tend to doubt it as the Apple licensing is [...]

Just as with cars, PCs are beginning to follow along with the trend that smaller is better. We have seen this in the past with Shuttle PCs and the Mac Mini, which provided mixed results depending on what the end user was wanting to use the computer for in the first place.
Now it seems that [...]

Despite having zero pity for the foolish choices made by Psystar, I do feel badly for those who purchased these PC. This lawsuit is not going to mean long term hardware support for their end users. This is not to dismiss whether Apple is or is not within their rights. That is something the law [...]

Ever since Apple’s hardware made the jump to Intel processors, there’s been an active community involvement in getting the Intel version of OS X to run on the standard personal computers that the majority of users have. Let’s face it, Apple’s hardware is nice and shiny, but despite the price drops, it’s still more expensive [...]

I was strolling through the local Costco the other day, a sometimes painful-to-my-wallet experience, and stumbled across a pretty good deal for an Apple TV. $389 for the 160GB model. I tried, unsuccessfully, to talk myself out of getting it. The way I saw it, I have a lot of content stored in my iTunes [...]

I was alerted here recently that one of my favorite Mac guys from the Bellingham area remains in business — just not putting in as many hours as he once had. After sharing my total distaste for my “Apple Genius” experience, I am really thrilled to see that Tom remains an active part of helping [...]

I’ve had my new MacBook Pro for several weeks now. As I planned to, I purchased Parallels and installed Windows XP Pro SP2 on it. Ironically, installing XP via Parallels was so much easier than installing it on a regular PC. A nice bonus was the fact that Parallels includes a feature that installs a [...]

The other day you may remember my expressed frustration with a Linspire folder issue. To be honest, I was angry and generally upset about the fact that the issue with my folder permissions being changed was something that slipped by quality control at Linspire.

To be fair however, I must admit that just trying to recreate [...]

OK, as you have read above, I am having an issue with Linspire as of late. While it continues to work well for my mom’s bookstore, it does present me with some very specific limitations that really need to be resolved.

So, is it time to look into OS X? Could that whole folder issue be [...]

Oracle database implementers have long enjoyed a wide array of platforms, and not to be outdone, OS X is among the available options for Oracle 10g. An early adopter developer’s release has been posted on Oracle’s Web site for free download, alongside x86 64-bit Windows and x86 32-bit Solaris editions. [Furo]

I’m itching for Tiger (OS X 10.4) to arrive next year, but until then, I’ll have to settle for updates to 10.3.x. The most recent update brings Bluetooth compatibility fixes, audio tweaks, a couple of image format problem resolutions, and better support for NTFS-formatted volumes. As of this writing, the update is not available via [...]

I feel so… obsolete. The fourth generation iPod was announced, leaving me with an antiquated third generation model that’s utterly useless now. Did I drip any sarcasm on your keyboard?

One of the easiest networking functions built into Apple’s OS X is Rendezvous. It’s a fancy name for the multicast DNS implementation. It allows devices on a TCP/IP network to discover each other without the use of a formal DNS server. Corporate network administrators will certainly cringe at such a thing, but for small environments, [...]

Apple previewed the next major release of OS X at WWDC last week, showing off some of the 150 features slated to make it into 10.4 (code-named Tiger). Among them is the Dashboard functionality, which is similar in function to another popular “widget” application called Konfabulator. I like Konfabulator, and a number of the 650 [...]
