On the Horizon. A small set from the land of low level lunacy. These were originally scheduled for release on St.Patricks Day but Murphy's Law intervened.

Oooh... shiny! Definitely looking forward to these.

Saweet! Can't wait!

Recently migrated to an iMac G5 from an old ibook G3. Didn't use migration assitant but installed everything on the new machine from scratch. However I've been having some proble…

Has anybody checked COMSOL (before was called FEM) and/or MATLAB on the Intel Macs? Thanks Ferdy

It doesn't matter what I print, or what Mac I use to do it, printing even the most simple of documents uses a huge amount of the CPU capacity. On my home iMac G4 it virtually alway…

What kind of printer do you have? Cheap printers and pretty much all inkjet printers currently available use `host-based printing' which means the host (your computer) has to do …

The ones I use regularly are Canon inkjet printers, sorry I should have said that. I take your point though, they are just dumb boxes after all. Thanks for the info.

Just one last bit of clarification: you will have the same effect with inkjet printers by HP, Epson and Lexmark (except for very few, e. g. some HP Business Inkjets). Also, very …

I've always wondered the same thing. Thanks for explaining it to us.

Never noticed that, I guess the 166 MHz RISC inside of my 'old' LaserJet 2100 TN is guilty here :-/ Could be it?… since there is no comparison between it (CPU inside LaserJet) and …

Probably if you buy a large expensive inkjet it will have its own processor. My school recently got some 13x19" capable HP 2800 inkjets that most certainly do their own processing …

Well, there are only a few. HP's Business Inkjets (the new K550 and the older 2xxx line) do have its own `brains', the same goes for the not-so-popular Canon Business Inkjets. Th…

Re: what printer, I use an ip4000 at home and an S9000 at work, both do the same thing.

Anyway to save or download a real player .rm file? I know there is an app from Ambrosia that can capture video but it chokes my machine (G4 450MHz sawtooth). Thanks in advance to …

There seem to be a dozen products on the market for manipulating PDFs, but I haven't found one that provides bookmark editing. What I need to do is: Output .pdf from a number of s…

Acrobat does this of course. If you stick the PDFs together using MergePDF the generated PDF has the filenames of the original PDFs as bookmarks in the final version, but I'm not …

Is there a way to add authors and title so I can search scanned scientific articles with Spotlight? Is there another way to do this other than Acrobat?

Yes, Acrobat of course. I didn't mention that my goal was to edit the bookmarks without buying a copy of Acrobat. It's hard to justify the price when we need a tool to accomplish…

Yeah, same for me, actually. I don't need Acrobat to create pdfs, that's what pdflatex is for So does anybody know of alternatives?

I've got a dual core intel iMac connected to an EyeTV 200 (universal software). I'm considering installing CyTV on the intel iMac but CyTV only has a PowerPC version. The other c…
