It is a PC card, Liese. Sigh. that's what I was afraid of. Dang.
Maybe I can beg and plead for a change from work, for some...unknown reason. Hrm.
I'm supposed to deliver you to the Master now. There's this whole deal where I get to be immortal. Are you cool with that?

I don't know anything about them, but I understand there are adapters that would allow you to plug a PC card into a thinger that then plugs into your USB port. However, my initial foray on the web shows that a) they are expensive and b) they may be unwieldy for laptop use.

Not sure how I feel about this: New Mac clone maker to open retail store in Calif.
As a Mac lover, I think a lower entry point will help make the OS more accessible. As a shareholder, I don't want anything that could 'cheapen' the product.
I think, mostly, I'm pissed I don't live in LA area anymore to go check the store out on June 1st.

So, I'm trying to set up a Pro Tools machine (I got in a bad habit of updating regularly, and that's kind of a bad idea for Pro Tools).
I've installed OS X 10.5, and need to update to 10.5.4 before loading Pro Tools. How do I only update to that specific version, but no further? How do I keep Software Update from just running a "combined update" to take me to 10.7.whatever? Or will it do it in steps? How do I make sure that one particular step isn't too far?

I believe you can download update packs from the support section of the website.

Digidesign has a FAQ somewhere that helps with that. Finding it is hard, once found, it helps a lot. There is also a utility or applescript that can help if you do the software update. Works most of the time.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So who's using virtualization software for the Mac. I've used Parallels for the Mac, but I don't think I've used the latest version. But I've heard VMWare is really good too.
