Hi Franck,
Yes i have checked that option but haven't gotten to it yet. But i
think it is the best so far.

present so far. I have contacted an engineer to figure this out with
me, and seeing him tomorrow so will post an
Hello, Thanks ever so much for pointing out an alternative browser for
safari. I did not even think for one moment htat ther ewould be an
accessible alternative browser for the mac since I think firefox at least is
not accessible which would seem to be the only other main alternative there
is.
Hi,
Hmm, experiences with Safari obviously vary. I, myself have an
extremely fast experience with it, and it's not sluggish at all. I'd
like to try Firefox once their promise for accessibility is out, but
I'm perfectly happy with Safari. Not to mention trying Google Chrome.

Indeed, I had a coworker test this by trying Snow Leopard's Safari

that didn't help. I'll look through what others suggested here for
solutions.

I'm guessing that the Mac is constantly scanning for monitor presence
when none are hooked up. With an actual VGA or DVI display hooked up the
Mac can query the display for information such as supported resolutions
and refresh rates. So a DVI to VGA adapter doesn't help because the Mac

Hi,
The funny thing about this is, I have a Mac Mini with the VGA adaptor.
Everything is slow until I connect the monitor. Now here's the funny
thing, I just connected the VGA cable, the monitor is not even plugged
into power. Guess what, the Mac is happy.

Makes some sense. I believe the VGA detection is done by probing various
combinations of pins as connected or not. If you are good with
electronics you can make a VGA terminator following the instructions here:

Don't know whether it still is available. It was put out by Demon (?), I
think, and do not know whether it would work with the intel Macs or
iPhone/iPod Touch. Let me know when you find it, whether it works; or, find
another which does work, please.

To burn an ISO image on the mac, go to your applications folder. Then,
select utilities, and open disk utility.
When in disk utility, first select a disk in the first table, as if
