Zonealarm has always had a memory leak which just keeps slowing the machine down

Did you also end up getting a lot of crashes from dibeng.dll too ?
I've seen a couple of forums reporting ZoneAlarm as a common factor in those errors.

I get the same here, running AVG and ZoneAlarm and found the ...

Or would you prefer rock,paper,scissors ?

I do have to ask this question though:

Why are so many of you convinced that PPC processors are faster, even though in every 3rd party* benchmark i've seen x86 PC's beat the crap out of Apple's G5's?


To be honest, I don't give a damn about which architecture is fastest. A computer is only a ...

Shouldn't it be FileSeek(Lof()) instead of FileSeek(Eof())?

Edit.. beaten to it by Dare2 :roll:

BUT!! They will not allow mac osx to run on non-apple machines. I think Jobs desire to sell hardware may be his undoing.


I dunno. One of the reasons I bought an iBook was because it was closed hardware, cos at the end of the day I knew it'd "just work".

If you look at the x86 market, there's ...

Either that, or Steve Jobs is quite stupid/mad... ;)


Is he stupid enough to announce to the world that in 12-18 months the Mac will be x86 powered, knowing by doing so he'll kill mac sales until then?


Yup, DoubleDutch is right, Jobs is madder than a Frenchman wearing underpants on his head ...

Seeing as he's in the UK, wouldn't it be easier(and more fun) for me to drive to his house and ambush him with a rusty spoon

Then again, iTunes and the ipod make them more money than PPC hardware..

Going one step further...
How about an external tool that queries the feed when the editor is started ?

Where does it say it'll be an Intel x86 ?
Maybe Intel are setting up a PPC fab.

Heck, it might be for a non-mac product, a new ipod, PDA or whatever.

To be honest, the article is nothing more than CNet hyping up a rumour that's been coming and going the last few years.

Anyway, only a few hours to ...

Yep, I'm always worried about the Russian's federal budget. Lucky for them that they had 47% more income than expected..

My sister was once bitten by a moose. Well, she was trying to carve her name into it at the time.

In all it took about a month with about one and a half guys working on the job

What was the other 1/2 guy doing ? :wink:

Anyway, that sounds like a good idea. Most people probably would have just decompiled it to 68k asm and tried to figure out the bugs the hard way (yup..been there, done that ...

I've just spent the evening converting some stuff from Windows to the Mac version (nothing major, just reworking the GUI)
I did exactly the same as you, except I compiled with -e MyApp -s carbon
and it opens fine.

in relatively recent times there have been tons of security updates for OSX, at the same time as apples market share has been growing. This means one of 2 things

a- Apple started making crappier software recently
b- people have been targeting osx more as it has become more popular


now... as far ...
