N’t let you group windows into organized ‘work stations’ like seperate desktops does. I used the freeware Desktop Manager for OS X.

I also had to install a pager program right away. I wish top-of-the-window menus was an option. And I have found myself looking for menu options when the wrong window is active, forcing me to have to go click the correct window to activate it, and then back up again to the menu. Sure the target is infinite, but it’s also sometimes very far away. And the program menu at the top of the screen makes more sense on smaller monitors than it does on my 1792×1344 one. What are we supposed to do with that empty screen area on either side of the dock anyway? I finally just set the dock to autohide. You have to look for and interpret icons every time. This ruins any chance of using motor memory to launch apps with the Dock. When you launch another program its icon is added to the Dock and makes the Dock stretch slightly. I have two complaints: First, the Dock doesn’t stretch all the way across the screen. The gui differences between OS X and the Gnome and KDE desktops I’m used to are not overly significant. Mac, $99 a year, no thanks), reminding me that this is indeed a proprietary system, I was on my way. It set up my monitor properly with better refresh rates than Xorg ever managed. The Mini recognized my HP printer and I only had to click a box to share it.

Especially if your PC is in a public space like a living room or kitchen, this is not an irrational consideration. You can buy small crappy PCs, or small expensive PCs, but you can’t buy something this small and elegant and stylish except from Apple. There aren’t even any keyboard/mouse wires to get tangled up in, as mine are wireless. I have room for my feet, and I don’t have to reach under my desk to stick in a CD. The Mini is quieter than many so-called ‘silent PCs.’ The fan came on briefly (and quietly) when I turned the heat up to test it, but other than that there is only the faint chirp of the hard drive – my monitor is louder. So how does the Mini compare to desktop or laptop Linux?įirst there’s the machine itself. Currently I have a box with Fedora Core 3 and a laptop with Simply Mepis.

I upgraded to Windows 95 but was still unhappy with the instability of the OS, so I switched to Red Hat Linux, and have been using Linux ever since, although like many of us I still fix my relatives’ Windows machines every few months.

For the first time since the power supply in my beloved Mac Plus had gone wonky back in Ô93, I had a Macintosh.Īfter the Plus died I was lured over to the Windows world by the promise of cheap multimedia, and was bitterly disappointed by the horroble gui of Windows for Workgroups 3.11.

When I opened it, the package was neat and trendy, with a cute little setup book I didn’t need. It was light, as if I had orderd a new hard drive. The box arrived at my home in the Southern US two days after leaving Shenzhen. You can also drag and drop a newsgroup into the bookmark bar from the main window.The following is the experience of a user of Linux for the desktop who got a Mac Mini. To add a specific newsgroup to your bookmarks, click on the Newsgroups button at the top (it looks like a newspaper), click on the (+) icon next to the name of the newsgroup in the newsgroup list you would like to add, then you will be prompted to choose the folder where you want to put it, simply select the folder and click “Ok”. To add a folder, simply right click at the bottom of the bookmark list and select Add Folder. Please note that if you delete a folder that currently contains newsgroups inside it, those newsgroup links will also be removed. To delete a newsgroup or folder from this list, simply right click on the item and select delete. You can easily add and delete newsgroups and folders to customize your bookmarks as you see fit. The two default folders shown, are 'Text' and 'Binary', with the most popular newsgroups for the the two newsgroup types available, for you to begin using right away. There are two default bookmark folders with a set of pre-chosen newsgroups already saved inside your bookmarks panel which is displayed on the left hand side of the browser window.
