And you should buy Tiger, mono. You get a student discount. There's no excuse.

Hell yeah. You'll need at least 512MB of RAM though, and more if you can afford it. IIRC you have a G4 mac, so it should run sweet. I've had enhanced performance with every upgrade.

It's like having a new computer. Since you haven't had Panther, the change will be even more radical.

It is worth it for the search feature and automator alone. I have an automator script take and reformat and resize my screenshots for Apolyton, with one click.

Sidebar was canned, because it was similarly chaotic and useless and gimicky.

Apple takes such a feature and it's suddenly useful and innovative, until the novelty wears off.

I don't get it -- what's the purpose of the tiny Wikipedia widget there when you've got Wikipedia opened in a full-featured full-screen browser in the background...?

	15-06-2005 00:23									#117
	Tired of ads?

Duh... I don't usually use the widget when I want to surf Wikipedia. It's for looking up odd things, especially when I'm doing other work. It sure beats opening the browser, opening wikipedia and then typing in the query.

As it happened, when I read Nostromo's post i was coincidentally just starting a session in the Wikipedia. That is why the window is open in the background. Coincidence... nothing else.

I see.

I just hit CTRL-K and type whatever to search Wikipedia.

Honestly, I never used Active Desktop in Windows, and I never use the Widgets in Dashboard.

Indeed, though I can't turn off Dashboard, I disabled the keyboard shortcut to it, and I removed it from the dock.

Everything else, like weather (which crashed often, dunno why), news, google, calculation, and wikipedia, are served by the browser I always have open, and the pages it's on.

http://qcubed-x0.uchicago.edu/base.php takes care of most of the search, and the "g" shortcut in opera means I can do calculations and search quickly and easily.

I've also found that I rarely use Expose.

Indeed, the one feature I like about Tiger/OS X is Spotlight. However, as I'm slowly starting to organize things the way I like, folder-wise, I'm needing it less and less, so...

What it boils down to is I honestly don't really find a difference between Tiger and Cheetah--they really are service packs that you have to pay for. Ah, well. It's not like I really use it for mission-critical things anyway, that's what my x86-linux/windows boxen are for.

oh, and now all three of my desktops are linked:
mac - windows/linux desktop - windows laptop
and i can use the same mouse/keyboard across all three without messing with wires.

But you still have the inconvenience of a browser window. I could do that with Launchbar if I chose to.

Windows just sucks, get used to it.
