  1. @mrrobbo nice! :D
  2. ... and Vista running on Parallels (while idle) uses less than 2% of MacBook Pro CPU cycles, and 83 MB of Real Memory. nothing!
  3. Parallels Desktop 5 is great. Windows runs better on my MacBook Pro in Parallels than it does on my Dell! and Mac trackpad gestures work!
  4. Pining for Etherpad? pbworks via http://netherpad.com/ & Prassana http://ietherpad.com/ are keeping the flame alive (via @mrpbps)
  5. Douchy's on holidays :)
  6. Im really impressed with Parallels Desktop 5 for Mac. - it's a HUGE improvement over version 4. If you use Parallels, you should upgrade.
  7. Snagit by TechSmith (normally $50 on Windows) is available as a free beta for Mac http://bit.ly/5taDoa similar but more flexible than skitch
  8. …and the scrolling function is as smooth as silk. I like using it much more than i expected to - it feels decidedly iPhone-like, actually.
  9. I caved to temptation & bought a MagicMouse. $99 is a bit pricey for a 2 button BT mouse, but for an article of desk sculpture its cheap! …
  10. @dwarlick In my tests Safari and Camino are both faster than Chrome.
  11. The advertisements I see in Tweetie on my Mac are more useful than many of the tweets!!
  12. @mrrobbo it's a Badge Huntsman. (Neosparassus spp) - rather beautiful aren't they? - and mostly harmless (as Douglas Adams would say).
  13. @spininternet is down again. that's three times in two days :(
  14. looking for a new ISP? Avoid @spininternet www.spin.net.au service is slow & unreliabe AND they won't accept responsiblility or compensate
  15. @spininternet ADSL2 service is pathetically unreliable. At least one day a week it's unavailable. (like now)
  16. Spin ADSL2 www.spin.net.au is the most unreliable ISP I've ever used. it's down as much as it's up!! stay clear!!
  17. tonight the students in my virtual class are meeting each other for a BBQ. I'm looking forward to it very much.
  18. experimenting with Übercaster for podcasting. The workflow is quite different to using GarageBand or Audacity.
  19. Using my MacBook Pro 17" to write reports is like driving a Lamborghini to deliver pizza.
  20. @jennyluca yes you should have butted in! Next time please do :D
