Mutt and Pine (the only two text-based email clients I can think of) both support IMAP and Gmail (which is just POP3).

And for older Macs running older System / Mac OS versions you can rely on the iCab browser.

redhot, how in the world did you get Tiger to run on a Wallstreet? Isn't that essentially impossible?

Camino could be a good choice of browser to use, Gmail works well in it too if you don't mind using the web interface.

I wrote extensively about my experiences installing Tiger on a Wallstreet. I think Tiger is the best OS for these old machines, bar none. As for which browser to use on a Wallstr…

Since you're running Tiger it's not a big deal, but one thing to consider is that ealier versions of OS X came with earlier versions of Safari, which are obviously not as widely co…

That's really amazing. . . If so many are running Tiger well on their Wallstreets, it really inspires me to get a larger drive for my iBook 466 and upgrade to Tiger as well.

Yes, I honestly believe that many people put way too much emphasis on "needing" a faster (re: newer = more $$$) machine in order to run their everyday software efficiently. I purc…

I agree. Mhz is not everything. I usually get 6-8 years out of each Mac i buy (been using them since 1984, and Apple ][’s since 1979). I still have some Quadra 605’s running Ope…

Yeah, it seems to me that you want to have your class examine the type of the table column and handle conversion to NSDate or NSNumber, etc.

I've put it on the back burner for now, but I do believe that I'm going to have to do some conversions in order to get the sort working. Connecting to the db server for each sort i…

You probably have install discs for 10.3.9 right? You could install it on a separate partition or a disc image and use an emulator/virtual machine to get it booted and review the p…

Partition your drive and install different versions of OS X on it. Easy.

Mac-onMac does not work with Tiger, either running or being run from. It even says that very clearly on the page.

And the Multi-Safari hack does not completely work on Tiger either. Before coming to Tiger, I built myself a standalone of Safari 1.3.1 to bring with me, but alas it does not work…

If you want moddability/awesome features, get a Linksys WRT54GL, and install DD-WRT on it.

What is DD-WRT? Basically I have Cable internet and a 2 bedroom apartment with 3 computers... just need a decent wireless router. The Apple one is fine, but I'd like a cheaper solu…
