Extreme angle lights out resolved?
The problem I reported several days ago was the iBook screen light going out in the last few degrees of opening to full. Sent it back to Apple, they took out a newly installed memory and blamed it on that. And so it was fixed. And so I put the memory back in to see for myself, and still it was fixed. Poor seating? Affecting such a random element of function so incrementally? Very strange.

The Apple website has some inviting screenshots of Filemaker 7 that seemed to suggest this version was going to be more OS X-like. I downloaded the trial and it looks exactly like FIlemaker 6, i.e. a classic application hurriedly ported to OS X. I've looked around but I don't seem to find anything that looks good and delivers the goods. FileMaker 7 blows the doors off of FM6. Don't be fooled by the exterior or the version numbers. This is a major upgrade, and since FM has been osx compatible since 5.5 (iirc) I doubt it's a hurried port. I'm not a real developer, so I can't vouch for the technical details, but I use FM a lot, and keep an ear to the ground in the developer community, and this is a very nice piece of software.
