Flash, JRE, and .net - this is a list of everything I try desperately to avoid using on any computer, anywhere.

@MattChance: Yeah, this is epic fail on Mac, for both Safari and Chrome.

@Tom-LH: I've got Karmic running in Parallels on Mac - an upgrade from my previous Jaunty install. #ubuntu

I'm still trying to figure out how to install Docky on my linux boxen now that I've successfully installed Gnome-Do. #dock

Ah. nevermind. Ignore the PPA instructions for Ubuntu and just look in "All available applications" under the Add/Remove Applications" menu option on the main menu. #dock

I'm having some trouble installing gnome-do on Ubuntu Intrepid. I keep getting an

"So how much were you looking to spend?"

This is for people who have very skinny necks or very long ties. I tried this and literally ran out of tie. I had about two inches of tie left for the final loop - needless to say, I'll be sticking with my standard four-in-hand knot.

Oh, yeah... jailbait + creepy old guy: [www.morphthing.com]

For background/visibility issues, I have a 100px tall box across the bottom of my display (my Dock is on the side of the screen) with a 30% opaque white BG - on top of this, I place several small meters (IP info, RAM, CPU, and disk space).

@Bassam: Whats wrong with Geektool?

Sans chrome? There's a trailer hitch joke in here somewhere.

Leopard only.

It loaded GMail for me lightning-fast, and kept doing that. After keeping several tabs open, overall performance seemed to degrade, probably due to my Winboxen's very low memory level and slow pagefile swapping.

I'll download and run the Beta, sure, but unless I can run AdBlock and NoScript, or functional equivalents, it won't be my primary choice.

Sites with auto-refresh totally FUBAR the count. I left a window open to [MSNBC.com] last week when Tim Russert died - it auto-refreshed 125 times in one day.

@themiddaysun: Um, you can create a separate partition and designate that as "/home" - that's how I have my Ubuntu box set up given the update cycle it's on.

@Frame: Yeah, now that I've been testing it for a while, it's definitely got a "beta" feel to it. Including some residual leakage problems. But I think it's going to end up, in final form, as a significant improvement.
