Hi there ...
Whenever I try using the 'tin' newsreader from Darwin, I've run into
problems.  It loads up and pulls up my NG list fine.  It loads a NG fine.
However, when I go to read a post (either via tab or enter keys), the

I have to say that Numbers seems like a dismal failure as a spreadsheet.
There are two "simple" things I'd like to do in Numbers:
1) divide a spreadsheet into scrollable panes

Hi Everyone:
I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this or not, but...
I am looking for fun and challenging "adventure" or "role-playing"-

I have Word X (no, not even Word 2004) on my MacBookPro upgraded a
couple of weeks ago to Leopard.  I'm holding out till mid-Jan. 2008 to
get the new Office version because I distribute a lot of docs to elderly
PC users.  Although I have quirks in Word already (for one the default

Thanks

Although Leopard is now "out" on both sides of the pond,
is it possible (in the UK, if that makes a difference) to
continue buying Macs with Tiger (for non-early adopters).

I need a Free Data recovery application. Money is tight. If you can

The boot drive (Seagate 120Gb) on my G4 PowerMac (10.4.10) suddenly
disappeared. I was playing some game and the spinning ball came on and I
couldn't get rid of it - so I stopped the machine and re-booted. I got
the ? in the middle of the screen and nothing else. So I re-booted ...

I'm still not entirely sure *exactly* what this bug is. Apparently it
at least involves ripped AAC tracks being displayed (when doing a Get
Info on them within iTunes) at the incorrect bitrates, even when VBR
encoding is unchecked.

Dear friends:
Problem with VMWare and BootCamp, two Windows keys needed?
I bought my first Mac last Thursday (a Mac Book Pro, with Tiger), and
today I installed Windows under BootCamp (1.4). All went OK, I
