Some excellent suggustions here. An "O by the way" the blind I am presently using (K-TEKsteel) as a built in switch that puts the that speicific window into a transparency mode (nice). Something else I would like to see is something similar to Mac's OS X expose. For those who don't know what expose is here is an example: By pushing on the F10 function key and the Apple key all running applications/program are reduce to a small size and sp

After thought: I use Objectdock plus on my pc, and one of the tabs is a WIDGETS tab (DeskX style). What is nice about having the Widgets tab is the abililty to use widgets when needed without always having them on the desktop. Pam

Been using konfabulator for just a little over year on my Power Mac (1.8 single), so I thought what the. . .and downloaded it for my pc (intel 3.01 overclocked to 3.9) with 2 g of memory. And, guess what boys and girls; it slowed it down (just a bit, but a enough to notice). However, the main problem was it didn't do anything that the widgets designed for DeskX couldn't do. Since I have already invested money into StarDock products there was no

Maybe I am just getting old, yes when the first movie came out I was thirty something (enough said about age), but I remember thinking that the acting in this movie is really bad. However, there was a "but" here, and that was this movie at the time have some of the best special effects to date. Be sides my to pre-teen boys thought it was about the best thing going (until Indy came along). All three of the first movies at some point have some bad act

Dear Deference, As someone who could be called a gray panther it has come to the point at my age that baseball, and football mean more to me than an election. I am now wheel chair bound, and get little chance to go anywhere. My TV along with my computer systems (Mac and PC) are my world. However, someone like you was at one time probably a student of mine (Elementary school and College Professor) . I have childeren (two sons) that are

Reply to 09/11, the economy and liberal memory loss in Democrat JoeUser Forums

I know this is just a little off the subject, however, out sourcing is not the fault of the President. It is the fault of the American people. Why is it that the Mexicans cross the U.S. border? A simple questions to answer; because we the American people will not do the jobs that the illegals will do, which is working out in the fields. And, please not give me that old line that the farmers and corporations which own these farms will not pay enough

Brad, this may be unfair to ask, however, being a pushy old broad I am going to anyway. When you put out very useful infomration as this about one of your applications could you please put it in someting like a printer friendly version (not sure if you can do it). At present I have all the ones you have done in the past saved as an Acrobat PDF File. And, thanks for the good info on ObjectDock. Pam

Reply to A Brief History of Western Religions- Part IV in Religion JoeUser Forums

I see you used the term martyr (or a form thereof). For those who do not know the term for martyr came from the Greek philosopher-Apologists, "Justin Martyr" who gave his life for his beliefs. Depending on what text you read he lived sometime between 100 to 185 AD. Most books who mention Martyr indicate he lived from approximately 100-165 AD. Most readings start to referrer to a Martyr as a person who give his/her live for a cause around 185 AD to

I wonder if the average Joe or Jill on the street really care whether Kerry was in Viet Nam, or that George Bush served in the Air National Guard. Isn't it time to give this subject matter a rest, and least move on to the more important matters. What are those you ask, well if you have to ask then you are not looking at what is really worrying the average American. How about things like job security, taxes (all levels), health insurance, etc. Its t

Reply to RealNetworks Targets Apple-Battle Looms in Consumer Issues JoeUser Forums

When you think of it niether of these companies care a great deal about those who buy their products. The support from either one leaves a great deal to be desired. A good example of that is the new G5 Mac computer; three of the fans went out on my G5 just two days after the warranty. Apple basically let me know that it was just two bad. Now the cost of those fans was not all that much; it was just the idea that Apple wouldn't back up there product

Reply to What's the rush, John? in Democrat JoeUser Forums

Not only is it not prudent, but it is also not wise. Does Kerry really think congress will sit still for a move like that. Remember what they did to "President Wilson at the end of WWI." Oh, for you none history majors the senate did not aprrove the "Treaty of Versailles." Nor, did they approve the United States joining the League of Nations. I have a feeling that before they can assign an individual to this position The House, and Senate will ha

Micheal Moore is nothing more than a profiteert; he is out to made his name in the world of big business. And, this he has done because of people who are looking for someone who can explain to them what is going on on this planet. Some people (not all) like to have someone show them in the easy way possible how they can understand what it is that is being said by the statesmen of today. People are thrown bits and pieces of information through the n

It is funny to me that people forget how at some point in their life they used language that was unbecoming. For you that have never sit in on a board meeting, and heard some of this countries great legal minds use language that what make a sailor put in ear plugs. Or for those who think that a teacher who is truly upset with a student hasn't let slip a little verbage that a parent would be glad to sue over. For those of you who are perfect, but hav

Read the linked article, and the only thing that really hit me was the fact that the article just had to say this was a, "Senior Senator (democratic)." So what, even if it was a junior senator , or a republican sometimes you just have to say what is on your mind. Remember these government officials are just people like you and me, thus at times they like us find the need to express themselves in the same manner we do. What the F. . . is she talking
