My question is, does one uninstall applications on the Mac the same

I just bought a Roku M-1000 media player which can talk to an iTunes
server.  I've got two Macs, on a old 400 MHz G4 running OSX 10.2, an a

about turning on "internet sharing" with Mac OS X, and there's even a
warning that pops up when you turn it on, about "violating your
provider's TOS."

Lucky me chanced into a bit of a financial windfall recently, so I'm
toying with the possibility of picking up a 1080i camcorder an Final Cut
Pro HD, and doing so full-HD studio production.  It would mostly be just
