how do you tell on a Mac?
I try to play it. If I use Windows Media Player, it tells me that I'm out of luck. If I use VLC, it just doesn't play.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

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!

Mac question
to which I sadly think I already have the answer
I'm trying to create an html template for business emails in Outlook Express that include my logo in a specific place, tarted up text and a background.
Is this an impossible thing in OS9?
So far, I've gotten by with a forwarded version of a cobbled together melange of the above with a photo attachment that always shows up at the bottom of the message, no matter where I insert it.
I've checked the Microsoft page, Mactopia and Google for solutions. I'm screwed, right?

When I used OE in OS9, I don't recall it handling html very well at all. The only sig files I used were plaintext, so I'm not sure you can use OE for that. MS Outlook could, though.

Laptop update: Machine arrived today and it's a beauty. My laptop at home is from 1997 and I forgot how much they've improved since then. One complaint. The laptop is advertised as 128 MB RAM, but when I checked the system properties screen it only shows up as 96 MB. So I called tech support who informed me that the video card uses 32 MB so it's not going to be available as RAM. Huh? Well the website says it's user-adjustable shared memory 16/32/64 so I'm going to play with that in the BIOS. Also I have 512 MB RAM coming in tomorrow so overall it shouldn't make a difference. It's just super-annoying.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Quick, someone tell me why I shouldn't buy this. Other than having to pay for an additional Tivo license, which would be a PITA.

No help here. I've been so tempted by it.

I'm joining the temptation train. Is it possible that you could sell your old TiVo and recoup some of the $$ spent on your existing lifetime subscription and put it towards the new one?
