Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
If you still can't find it, make sure Safari is running,
Do we know that Teppy installed this thingie for Safari?
I did. At least, I opened (shudder) Explorer to see if it was modified, too, and it was not. If I could just remember the damn name of the sheep program, I could get rid of it.
(And again, it's not causing problems with my system at all; I'm just tired of it and want it gone.)
I can't find it in any of the logical folders, including the ones that Tom suggested. I have learned my lesson to keep track of stuff I install.
Not that Jessica's decision isn't personally reasonable - for many (most?) people, aesthetics are more important than sound quality.
NSM aesthetics as physics -- we live in a tiny NYC apartment, ergo, we need tiny electronics.
curses Bose for their complete and utter inaffordability
ergo, we need tiny electronics.
You could get regular or large electronics and zap them with some sort of de-bigulator.
About those "free iPod" offers -- at least one of them is plenty shady:

I totally dream of having Reducto come along and turn my tower into a mini. Or a mini into an iPod. Or an iPod into a shuffle....
I love my chiclet shuffle, but I'd rather have it turned into a 40GB iPod than have my TARDIS shrunk.
Jessica: FYI, 99% of audio people HATE Bose. Their sound quality is not nearly worth the price, and the aesthetics rarely counteract the high dollas paid. At least, so I hear from those "in the know," which does not include me, really. They'd say that the Yamaha you got is probably as good as whatever Bose set is available for twice the price. Buying Bose is like buying Louis Vitton - more name than value (Note: if there is something about those Louis Vitton bags that actually DOES make them worth the money, then you may substitute that metaphor with some other designer wear that isn't really all that much better than its knockoffs. I know they're out there but am unfamiliar enough with fashion to be unsure of what actually fits.)
I'll be in a tiny NYC apartment myself, starting in June. Probably tinier than yours, even, though I clearly can't bet on that. Still, one person, on a teacher's salary, makes it pretty likely (unless I find awesome roommates, of course). In my case, I have no problem with the speakers taking up more space than anything else in the home, though - I like my sound quality. I'll give up my Powermac G5 (and the accompanying screen) for a high-end powerbook if I need to save space at some point down the road.
Any recs for a digital camera with a minimum of 3 megapixels and a 10x or greater optical zoom lens? (No digital SLRs, though.)
I've seen a few good reviews of the Panasonic Lumix series lately and I went to browse through the ultrazoom cameras at a local shop today, but I apparently knew more about the cameras than the salesperson. You know it's a bad sign when the salesperson gives up trying to figure out how to power up a camera and arbitrarily decides the batteries must be dead, but you take one look at the camera and correctly push the power button.
Can anyone recommend a "quark for dummies" type book for the mac version? I have used InDesign, and am fumbling my way through some changes and updates, but things like how to create paragraph and character styles are defeating me.
