Eventually I hope VLC's (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-macosx.html) RTSP support will mature... At the moment it can play - and, purportedly, save - QuickTime streams, which are done with the RTSP protocol. It just doesn't want to work with the latest Keynote address -- only Steve knows why, the last WWDC works fine. (I have a gut feeling that the Akami QTSS may for some reason still be treating the Keynote as a Live Stream and that this is confusing VLC) But the 'Mac OS X Hint' may be worth people looking at: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20031216183821835 Ryan

sharing a usb printer in 8.6
I've found my self in a tough spot with a recommendation I made regarding the purchase of a laser printer, not helped by the fact that they told me they had a G4 running OS X (get there and it's a G3 running 8.5.something) and decided to skimp and buy the printer WITHOUT an ethernet card. They have a USB laser printer, a windows 2000 PC and the aforementioned G3 and wish to share the printer between the 2 without hot swapping the cable. Sharing the printer on Win 2000 creates an SMB printer share that in OSX can be seen and hooked up to but I can't see it through OS 8.6 (which they purchased years ago but never installed) I need to know if there is any freeware that can be run on the Win2000 box that will allow it to share the printer via TCP/IP LPR (TCP/IP line printer) or if there is freeware that will allow a Mac OS 8.6 box to connect to an SMB shared printer... the emphasis is on FREEWARE as they will not spend sub even the $100 for an ethernet adaptor for the printer they are unlikely to approve something like Throsby's Dave software :( thanks in advance :) -- ~ Mark Secker Computer Support Officer ph#6488 1855 (ECEL) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Western Australia - CRICOS Provider No. 00126G ~ present day present time http://ecel-mark.ecel.uwa.edu.au/~marksecker/index.htm (sometimes works)
Virtual PC 6.1 and Panther
Can anyone tell me if VPC 6.1 will run properly under Panther (10.2.3)? I am thinking of upgrading from 10.2.6, but have a niggling suspicion that it may not? I see Microsoft has released VPC 7 though and am assuming this is what maybe required. thanks very much regards chris
Re: Can Safari save Web Pages in different format?
My question on Safari is: can it save a web page in the 3 formats available from IE - Web Archive, HTML Source and Plain Text? saving pages may not have as many options as explorer, but you can always save as PDF that said, safari is the best browser i have ever used, kicks explorers' butt. I use it for all my banking, bill paying, secure stuff all. Tabbed browsing is the business. g
Getting Rev A Mboard into 7600 that had a Rev B in it?
Hi, A friend's Revision B motherboard got eaten by the battery's acid but we have acquired a Revision A board but it's connection to the power supply is a 22 pin plug where the Rev B is 24 pin we were hoping to kludging it but don't know what the Rev A board expects. Does anyone know where we can find a diagram showing the pin-outs for these power supplies? Thanks Brian
Re: Virtual PC 6.1 and Panther
Can anyone tell me if VPC 6.1 will run properly under Panther (10.2.3)? I am thinking of upgrading from 10.2.6, but have a niggling suspicion that it may not? I'm currently running VPC 6.0 under Panther 10.3.2 and haven't noticed any problems myself... except sometimes it seems to hang while saving the PC's state, but that's a minor annoyance to me and may not be related to Panther anyway.

going offline to check my emails with viewing pane
Hi, someone mentioned going offline before checking emails with the viewing pane as a way of reducing spam, or at least helping the junk mail filter to work. Because if you open the mail, it send a message back that you are 'there'. Have found my junk mail in the inbox much reduced by this strategy, so thanks to whoever gave this tip. Cheers, Susan.

Re: Download monitor
I'm pretty sure I've come across something on versiontracker.com that does that before. Just search for download and I'm sure it won't take you long to find. Ruben A.

I am using OSX Panther and Ethernet As this will depend on how your provider counts traffic, knowing which provider you're with could be useful. While you might be able to find an app that monitors local traffic, it's not guaranteed to reflect your real traffic. It may not count packets blocked by your firewall - but your ISP will. It will not realise that traffic to free sites shouldn't count toward your DL allowance. Other issues exist. Of course, if all you want to do is monitor your raw I/O rates and amounts, then I expect there must be something out there. If you want ISP-related download stats, it'll depend on the ISP.
