You have to click thru five pages to get the whole thing, or if you want
to print it out just click on the Print button at the beginning of

There is a new piece of software that allows you to highlight a portion
of the mac screen during a presentation to show where the mouse is.
Very neat.

Not long ago, a little American flag mysteriously appeared on my window
menu, between my email symbol and the numbers showing the time of day.
I am running a G5 with system 10.3.1.
This flag most certainly was not in my finder window when I first

That, the mini-Mac, is going to be a real winner. Wish I'd bought some
options again ... about 5 months ago. The Apple site is slammed and I
wouldn't be surprised to see it be quite busy for a while. Let's hope
there's no serious design or QA flaw discovered by the target market in the

Yeah, the iMac mini is gonna be a hit I think. And one of the guys here
at work who only owns PC's (because he's a big gamer and most hot games
are PC only) has told me he's gonna buy the little tiny iPod. He
doesn't need a bigger one, and he uses the PC version of iTunes already.
Apple's got a
One of the updates may have installed that, I think you can turn it off
in the International Preference Pane.

It's the one that appears when you have more than one keyboard layout
enabled. I'm not particularly sure how you'd have gotten more than one
layout enabled, but you can get rid of it by going into System

Input Menu tab.

I've got the flag, also, and I suspect all of us who have installed all
the recent updates do.

It is part of the international set-up. If you click on international
etc, on that little pulldown menulet, you can find all the different
flags for different languages. If you click on a particular one, it

I agree, the mini-Mac is awesome sounding. Questions that probably no
one has answers to yet: 1) Can you use any monitor, or do you have to
buy an Apple display? 2) Will it include an Airport card? (I'm guessing
not) 3) What is Apple's usual timeframe for being able to upgrade the

Addendum : there seem to be some of you who don't have the character
palette up there in the pulldown menu bar with the flag. You should go
to Systems pref click on international then on input menu and check
which of these things you want , and don't forget to mark show input
menu in menu bar
