Re: New search engine site

I found problems. 1. No side scroll or other way of movong down each page, so only got part o the results. 2. Seemed to be a lot of duplication. 3. The one limk that seemed to be of value was dead - failed to open page. Dick Anderson On 29/07/2008, at 8:15 AM, Peter Hinchliffe wrote:

Hi Graham, I'm compelled to mention the philips Aurea. With the LEDs off it looks like a big white iMac. With the LEDs on it is unique. It would tick all your boxes and it is getting cheaper each time I look. take a look at the movie. http://www.consumer.philips.com/consumer/en/au/consume

Graham, A year ago I moved from a TV, VCR, DVD Player, CD Player, Set top box and cable nightmare to a Mac Mini, EyeTV and a 26" Samsung screen. These three items (if you count the EyeEV as an item) replaced the previous 5 big boxes, and allows me to do so much more than before such as HD v

Re: G5 Problem

Hi Michael, Wonder if your G5 is keeping time correctly. I'm thinking maybe the PRam battery is either flat or going flat. When was it the last time you changed it. I'm no expert, so that may not be the problem. Or try reseating your RAM cards, just in case. Failing this possibly a visit to yo

Hi, I am puzzled why some programs (like Audacity & Filezilla), when you close them down using the little red button on the top left, they go to 'Invisible' in the program dock menu for that program. (I hope that is clear). I'm wondering several things: (a) What does 'invisible' mea

Hi Clyde, I'm sorry but I'm not sure what you are wanting answered here ... are you referring to 'Invisible' as in Unix-style invisible files such as ".DS_Store" & ".localized" files ... or are you concerned about the buttons Red, Yellow & Green (close, minimise, zoom buttons)? Cheers,

Hi Clyde, The little black arrow in your picture indicates that the Audacity icon in the dock is an alias. Remove it from the dock and drag & drop the Audacity application icon from your Applications folder onto your dock. Cheers, Ronni On 30/07/2008, at 2:09 PM, Clyde McLennan wrote: Hi
