I have been watching the Macworld 2007 keynote address for the last 2 hours and all I can say is:... Jup, nothing. I am absolutely amazed by the way Apple has not only reinvented the phone (look ma, no keys!) but also the ipod (look ma, coverflow!), and maybe the most overlooked, but they reinvented the mouse!!! A …

Hi, do you also think Windows Vista gets too much credit for stealing Apple's Mac OSX, a.k.a. Tiger? Here's a funny little movie on nytimes.com with proof that Windows is "not" an OSX ripoff. Very funny.

I recieved my Airport Express last tuesday and had it installed as a wireless audio connection for my stereo in a couple of minutes as follows: 1. Plug the Airport Express in a wall outlet. 2. (Temporarily) connect it to the network using an UTP cable 3. Run the Airport Administration utility (forget the wizzard, it …

Okay, I found the answer to my problem. Mounting an USB drive on OSX which is formatted as Fat32, will not behave nicely when being accessed through samba. Trying to start multiple copy processes simultaniously will cause seemingly random "file locked" errors. I just formatted the drive as HFS+, and the …

I am very close to migrating the data on my bulky PC to my new Mac Mini fileserver and mounting the IDE drives in the USB drive brackets. Once I've done this, I will have the screenshots and data to write a nice "how to" on using the Mac Mini as a file server. There is however one slight problem which could …

The past 5 years (or more, I can't remember exactly) I have had a windows server which provided 4 "shares" or "network disks" to the users of my local network. Simplicity was it's power. All network users would connect with the default windows "Guest" account to prevent complicated logon …

A while ago, I bought a Miglia TV max for my Mac Mini. With it, you get EyeTV, the PVR recording software. I was very happy using it, but I recently discovered that all exported MPG files are missing the last part. Arg! This is a VERY serious bug. It also means that each and every recording I have archived on my …

Trying to view his Steveness in the Apple WWDC 2006 Keynote addres? Me too, and haven't been lucky for 3 days in a row. I actually managed to view 3 minutes of distorted, half-audio presentation, but then it died, and has given me an error 400 ever since. It's not nice to see Apple not being able to cope with the …

All listed in one nice page on "Guide to OSX software for switchers". Have fun!

I really like iTunes. When you have 1 computer (an apple, that is ;-), and 1 place to store your music, it's all you'll ever need. It is easy to manage your music with, it puts your files in reasonably understandably locations (artist/album/track), has nice smart playlists and there are a lot of plugins available. I …
