Re: #9 - "Use two fingers for trackpad right-clicking" - also works on guest OSs installed in Parallels or VMware Fusion. And in BootCamp as well (very handy for Vista).

@DJWeezy: smoothwall is the way to go, if you have the time and energy to set it up. And a spare PC. And you don't mind the extra $ on your electricity bill.

Totally. Works. And during garbage and recycling strikes (I hate you city-of-Vancouver) - bust out that vacuum cleaner and play the "how many can you catch" game. Not as much fun as Wii, but probably improves eye-hand just as much.

@geekgrrl77: the Official Google Mac Blog put up a post earlier today letting us (Mac users) know that they're hard at work. But won't give a release date, or even hint at one.

Ahem. And Canada :) Enjoy your day off guys, you've earned it.

As a die-hard Quicksilver fanboy, I think it's absolutely fantastic. So far I've found it quite stable for an alpha, and it hasn't caused Firefox to crash. I agree with Gina that it's probably going to require a "button" for launching in order to get widespread adoption w/ the non-power users (dozens of my co-workers

By the time I'm done this comment someone else will probably have mentioned one or two of these...

It would seem I'm in the minority, but I like it.

Yes, they are that distracting. Having something moving (particularly when it's an open tab) causes my focus to return to the silly moving icon constantly. Thank you Geek!

@Tim: try localhost:8888/jinzora/index.php?&ext.html (just in case LH formats that oddly, index.php?&ext.html is what I was going for).

@brad8989: At what point does it fail/not work? (ie. do you get to a login screen?)

@jkrell: the version Mac uses (in the tutorial) is actually the linux version. I don't think OS X is "officially" supported, it just happens to work using the linux v.

@B1663R: I'm not sure it's fair to call it "useless" because it doesn't support drag-and-drop. It's still a great alternative for people on a budget.

I'm a big fan of scanning, printing to PDF - doing anything possible to avoid printing.

I'm in total agreement. I was already "stuck" in a 2 year contract, my current phone does just fine for a phone (and it was free w/ the 2 year contract). The iPod Touch is genius. I say MORE iPhone/iPod Touch posts - and to those who disagree, Yahoo Pipes is your friend.

I've been using it almost daily now, and have yet to see it crash (?). Since I use it entirely via Boot Camp, I prefer it not write back to OS X. When I need whatever file I've been working on in Vista, it's easy enough to get from OS X.
