In the scant two years since Tiger came out, metadata had gone from the direction of Apple's innovation to dead as a doornail? I'm not quite sure where you got that from.
maybe some of the top secret features will incorporate whatever Apple's filed patents for...
i distinctly remember them getting a patent for windows that fade (and then close?) af…

I agree, I don't expect a new UI, but I wouldn't be surprised in a little tweaking like they've done from release to release: Increasing opacity in menus and getting rid of pin str…

I've never really understood what so many of you have against the finder, anyone care to explain it to me?
I rather like it, but I'm only comparing agianst XP.
Basically it's a bandwagon thing. Someone comes up with a cute phrase full of alliteration like "fix the f**ckin finder" and everyone jumps onboard.
The finder isn't perfect but…
It's just so much worse than the old OS 9 Finder. The browser model and the spatial mode is all mixed up, which damages both modes. It's buggy as hell, in particular wrt window si…
Yeah I've never understood the whole anti-Finder sentiment. What's so damn wrong with it? It serves its purpose, and does so smoothly and efficiently, IMO.
I'm sure there are so…
It beachballs sometimes when accessing network shares. It also likes to put Desktop icons underneath the Dock if it's pinned on the right.
Neither of these things would require a …
It also fails to update network shares sometimes. You have to create a new folder to get it to update the file listing. Also doesn't require a rewrite to fix.
Funny by the way to watch Apple struggle against the closer, minimizer, hider problem. First they introduce minimizing windows, then they introduced hiding windows (apps), then the…

You could just select all audio tracks on the audio cd and drag them into the Toast window. It should automatically switch the cd format to "Audio CD" and you can go. This techniqu…
AndreasVogt:
Toast does not support direct audio transfer with Teac drives. (drag and drop from 1 CD to another). That is my problem.
Check the toast read me file
There are two pretty cool CD burning utilities out there that might help with some of these problems. Adaptec makes Jam which is made specifically for burning audio tracks to CD. …
First the CD drive you want to copy from must be able to do "Digital Audio Extraction" at high speed or you will suffer "Buffer Underruns" and will have generated a "coaster" inste…
I use Astarte CD-Copy 2.0 to extract any track from cd, weather it be data or audio. Once tracks are saved you then drag them on top of toast and it does the rest.
