We all know there's been a conspiracy. Only the failures have been recorded.
We all pay too much attention to Icarus, and not enough to his father.

Not to keen on anything really, except graphics design and desktop publishing.

Enterprise has no place for Macs.

macs-

More stability...

Less computer crashes...

Less scripting bugs...

Better graphics...

Faster processing speed...

(The speed is comparable, but the stability, scripting, and crashes are a result of WinXP being inferior to OS X and not an actual Mac advantage. Linux PCs are comparably stable etcetera. Maybe it's because both are derived from UNIX...)


My Windows XP never crashes.

    There's a new sheriff in town.
I know next to nothing about software (that is software?) or computers in general.  I grew up with windows and every time I use a mac I want to kill myself.

Just let me know when you want to borrow my Mac. Anytime! :lol:

So back to the original question:
Who can make a Widget for the KSU mens bball team?
Why are PeeCee users even reading this thread? I believe the title is "Attention Macintosh people"
It wasn't suppose to be a pissing contest.

It was suppose to be basketball related. If you check out the Widgets at the apple.com web site, there are many, many schools with schedule widgets, etc. I just thought it might be cool to have a KSU widget.

Stay on topic people!

Windows Vista has "Gadgets". Much superior in every way shape and form.

Congratulations to Vista. Why are you trying to flame?
Feel free to create a "Go-Go Gadget" then.
In the mean time, I hope someone more tech-savy than me can create a widget for the Superior Mac crowd.

Agreed 100%, we need a K-State Gadget, several of them.  *(I'll build the KATPAKGET)*

    Overkill. It works.
The first computers I worked with in middle school were Apple II e's.  They sucked ASS.  Apple II e's were the only available computer when I was in high school...hated them then too.  I got my first computer when I was in college in 1990--an IBM with a whopping 60 MB hard drive.  Since then I've had 2 HPs and my current Dell--along with my HP laptop at work.  I don't know, maybe its just that I'm so used to PCs.

When I first started teaching, the only computers at school were Macs--because Macs were cheaper for schools to buy.  THEN they figured out that once you get out of high school, outside of graphic design businesses, you're not going to use a Mac because businesses are dominated by PCs.  Since then, my school has gone exclusively with PCs, except in the computer graphics class.

I'm just used to PCs.  I understand them.  Every time I have to work with a Mac I want to scream.  However, I'll say this:  PCs are better for some applications while Macs are far superior in other applications.  It all just depends on what you're going to use them for.

I got in trouble in computer lab for setting the logo turtle to repeat the pattern 99999999 times or whatever.  They didn't know what to do, they (teachers) were afraid to turn it off so they let it run for a couple days.

If someone makes a KSU B Ball widget, I am in.  Sounds like a great idea.

   1. Quit out of the browser.
   2. Go to your Applications folder and control-click on the browser application bundle.
   3. In the context menu that appears select Get Info.
   4. Under the General heading of the Info dialog select "Open using Rosetta".
   5. Close the Info dialog box.

I'll try and reinstall it...

Does wmv run in your browser?

That's because the enterprise is brain dead.  Yes sir, we can only have Windows and Outlook in our office so Betty Dumbcrap can forward her joke chainmails to the whole department using those pink kitty-kat stationary on the email.  Because otherwise we'd be OH SO SCREWED paying all that money retraining her and her friends on how to send that crap without asking her boss 10 times if we put her in front of something different and told her sternly "no more pink kitty-kat formatted emails, ok?"

A Dual G4 800?  Why don't you tell us how well a Pentium III is going to run Halo 3, faggypants?   :P

Oh brother.

We just really need for Steve Jobs and Bill Gates to meet in the middle of the ring and the one kills the other, the world has to adopt that standard.

If you can wait until Leopard comes out I'll make you one then.  Sorry, lacking in the coding department.

The "open using rosetta" is basically just telling you it's not a universal app.  Just act like Rosetta doesn't exist and you'll be less confused.

Yes, the flip4mac will run in your browser
