SITE PLEASE

I notice that some of my flash drives are FAT16 and some are FAT32.
Their general use is on the IMac, but every now and then I need to carry

Why is Classic so unstable?
I am using a PowerMac G4.  I recently upgraded to OS 10.4.10 Tiger from OS
9.2.2.  I have 1G memory.  I have the Microsoft Office 2001 that I use a
lot.  I have acquired an extensive archive of files with Office 2001, and

Is Quicktime Pro the same as the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback component?
I've bought & installed Quicktime Pro, and the Quicktime player
shows it as being installed & registered with a valid serial number
but when I launch MPEG Streamclip, among others it complains that the

I read somewhere that some browsers provide the URL of your last viewed

Then there's chatter about EyeTV, which I assume has the same general

I just installed Nemo last night to give it a trial run.  Anyone have

other NewsWatcher veterans have to say about Nemo.

I use MacSoup 2.8.1 and generally love it... with one exception.  The
killfile is very problematic.  Sometimes it works fine, but there are
some people that keep right on coming through even after I have said to
ignore any message from them.

Anyone know if there's an app or system extension that will allow the OS
to hold a list of clipboard items in memory that you need
often--something like the auto-fill memory in a browser, or maybe a
pulldown list, only system-wide for the paste function?

Got a question;
I'm going to use DVD's for simple data backup and have read up on the
different types of media I can use. I'll probably be burning archives to

I am shocked to find that the iTunes store seems to have found the
ultimate money printing machine:
If you put money on it eg for your kids, the money expires after some
time: first song bought on 23 April 2007, disappeared 15 October 2007 -  

I want to use xterm-256color in xterm under X11, there is an entry in /
usr/share/terminfo/78, I guess this came with the default Mac OS X
installation; there's also an entry in /opt/local/share/terminfo/x,
which was installed via darwin port (ncurese), now my question:
