osx2x (3).

by Rob Friesel

The third installment of this rivetting series! After about a week or so of using these VNC-wares, I think I’ve got the knack and am pretty set with them and am ready to write up my report. osx2x-to-WinVNC: The first one I got going. And the one that seems to work best. On Detonator-3, WinVNC […]

osx2x (2).

by Rob Friesel

So… osx2x on KetelOne and VNC on Detonator-3 later and we have success! The reverse of what I was originally going for… But just the same it’s a huge leap. The weirdest part so far is cmd+C’ing everything on KetelOne and then trying to remember that I still need to ctrl+C stuff on D-3. Paradigm […]

osx2x

by Rob Friesel

Glossed over it on Tao of Mac but returned to reading up on osx2x after a co-worker randomly chatted me in the middle of the day to ask if I’d heard of it. At first my wires crossed on it and i was like is that some alt x-window mgr or s/thing? not so much… […]

1984.

by Rob Friesel

20 years of Macintosh. The Classic (full of puns, aren’t we?) Apple ad: The 1984 Ad. Note the digitally dubbed in iPod. That was a nice touch. UPDATE: Speaking of Mac historia: The 20 Macs that matter most … whatever that means. Some neat Apple company trivia, neat product shots from decades past, and interesting […]

round-up!

by Rob Friesel

Exposé on Windows. Everyone knew it would be soon. But maybe not this soon. Of course, Linux had the first clone. More geeking out… After trying drunk and at 2:30am w/ Eli to try and compile it on my iBook (results were inconclusive…), come to find out some kicked out a whoop-ass installer for Apache2 […]

iOhNo!

by Rob Friesel

Mike… Weren’t we just talking about the inevitable iDVR? Except that they’re calling it “iBox” apparently. Which is about as sexy a name as “iCrap” but whatever. So here is what MacOSX.com reports (re: tech specs): Processor: 500 MHz G3 ([or more likely a] 900 MHz PowerPC 750fx [like in the] G3 iBooks […] 512k […]

iBook problemo.

by Rob Friesel

Not with the model I have (apparently) but… As it turns out, some iBook owners are organizing a lawsuit due to some fault logic board ish. Black Cider seems to be leading the charge though there’s some significant pressure coming from Brandon Carolan’s PetitionOnline.com petition (in the top 10 even!). In a way, I was […]

dwelling.

by Rob Friesel

I feel like my vacation is going pretty well. It was excellent to get out last night and revisit good ol’ Club Charles. Of course, this morning I woke up feeling that stern voice in the back of my head muttering about how I’m not doing nearly the amount of work over my break as […]

osx.3.

by Rob Friesel

And to round out this morning’s round of blog entries, we bring a new list to our sidebar o’ blogs: x180.net, home of the weblog of Jame Duncan Davidson. Let’s hope everything I’ve heard so far about his new book are true. B/c if they are, it’s going to make my “OSX in a Nutshell” […]
