I need some help from the Automator experts out there. I’m not sure if this is a job for Automator or for Applescript. My MacBook Pro generally connects to only two wireless networks: home and work.
I’d like a process to run at startup that determines if I’m attached to work, and if so,…
Attention World of Warcraft players (ummm…that would be me too): The newest WoW patch that just came out supports multi-threaded Open GL for Intel Macs. (Via MacWorld (http://www.macworld.com/news/2006/12/05/wow/index.php)):
Blizzard Entertainment has released an update to its massively…
To compliment D3v1L80Y’s post yesterday (http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45740), I can’t resist posting this (found via CBS Marketwatch…
Here’s a iTunes promotion I just found. I saw this deal today when I was at avis.com to get a quote on a car rental for around the holidays.
If you register your Avis wizard number (your ID number) with their iTunes promotion, you’ll get a code for 5 downloads for every rental of 1 to 4 days…
I think this is great news, especially considering the legal battles Apple has had with Apple Corps (the company formed to handle The Beatles interests). I found this in a Fortune magazine story via CNN/Money (http://money.cnn.com/2006/11/22/technology/apple_beatles_ipod.fortune/index.htm):

I have a dilemma. I have a big (Well, that’s relative. It’s 100 GB.) MP3 music library that is housed on my PC. I use it as a central storehouse and when I’m at home, I connect to it via my MacBook Pro. I posted about this on a past thread…
I’m a recent Mac switcher (as of 10/31). I’m not very graphically inclined (I don’t own Photoshop, nor do I know that much about it). For basic image manipulation tasks on the PC, I used a great freeware application called Irfanview. I’d say 95% of all the tasks I needed Irfanview for were for…
I’ve been a big fan of Ta-Da Lists (http://www.tadalist.com/) for several months now. It’s a great and free tool to keep very simple and very handy lists (shopping lists, to do lists, reminder lists, project lists). You can easily make a list, sort it, check items off, add new items, share lists…
I was having trouble printing to my Lexmark X5150 printer that’s connected to my Dell PC workstation. My Macs (yes, there are two bundles of joy in the house now) could see the computer and printer on the network, but all tries to get it to print anything failed.
So I looked around for awhile and…
So, I really need to get out more.
I love my widgets. Before I switched to Mac last week, I was a big Konfabulator fan (now Yahoo! Widgets) and had tons of them (okay…a dozen) running on my PC. I like my Mac widgets so much more though (maybe because they’re just more tightly integrated with…
