Stuff I should have known about a mac
Having a fun, snappy little Mac at home like my Macbook has lead me to a rediscovery of the Macintosh experience. I work with Macs all day in a pre-press environment, and I am seeing that my narrow focus there has made me a bit myopic about some things

Today I was looking for a security product somewhat like Windows equivalents that I know of. I wanted a secure place to store certain items to keep them from casual snoops. It's not that people intend to snoop. but a Macbook is like a cute puppy dog, and people just want to touch it. On Windows, DriveCrypt and Steganos Safe provide strongly encrypted, password protected containers for your sensistive material. I wondered if there were similar products for the Mac.

Then it clicked - you already have that functionality. No, not FileVault, that's a bit overblown, not quite what I need, and it's a problem if your drive is frying to recover anything from a FileVault.

It's much simpler than that. Use Disk Utility to create a sparse disk image, encrypted, and tell it to NOT remember your password (otherwise anyone can mount the image if you happen to be logged in but away from your desk). Voila, a safe place for your unmentionables.

Then, I was a little miffed while web surfing that when you find an image you want to save to disk the context menu only gives you the options of saving to Downloads or to your iPhoto Library. What if I want to save it to my aforementioned secure disk image? Well, this is so simple, I'm sure a 12 year old would have just assumed this, but you just drag it from the web page into your disk or folder.

Macs just do it the way it should be done. Simple.

Quark Trapping Gotcha - new video
After a lengthy hiatus after my first video, I've produced another demonstrating an odd trapping anomaly that occurs by default in QuarkXpress up to and including versions 6.5. Maybe you could put this effect to some creative use, but to prepress people it's just another pain in the ass to watch out for. Go see it now here:

I bought a MacBook
Microsoft was having this 'Wow' ad campaign about Vista, and I have vista, and have yet to say wow. Instead I curse that infuriating UAC, and am continuosly disappointed by software incompatibilities and other such annoyances. Vista insn't ready for prime time.

I bought a Macbook a few days ago, with some trepidation - I have been following them for a long time, reading reports of optical drive problems, heat, defective batteries, and a few others. It would so disappointing to bring home an expensive toy like this (two thousand and change CDN), and find any of these issues. I didn't. I was hopefully that this third generation model would have the kinks ironed out, and so far I haven't been disappointed.

The MacBook defines cool in a laptop. Sure, it aint a pro model, but then again, it ends about about a thousand less in price, and its still cool.

It works like the Apple ads say - it just works. Plug it in, turn it on, it finds my wireless (and a few neighbours) no problem. Of we go, surfing and mailing, installing software from CD and DVD no issue. No heat issues at all. Battery life good (I seem to get about 4 hours). The keyboard is, well, fun. The trackpad is pretty neat, like most people I prefer a mouse, but if you need the trackpad its very useable

The display is very sharp (I have the gloss screen). I was a little concerned about the 13 inche size, but it seems very comfortable. No doubt soon I will try it in a dual monitor configuration, but I feel no compelling need for it so far.

It's fast. Very fast. I have a G4 at home, it got dusty quite some time ago, it really was too slow to be fun anymore. I have G5's at work, a few years old now, that I don't think will keep up with this sexy little puppy.

Everybody should get one. Its sooo cool. If you have one, it will make you cool too.

Wow?
I bought a new laptop, a Toshiba Satellite, it's OK, comes with Vista Home Premium. Contrary to Microsoft's current ad campaign, I didn't say 'Wow' once. 'Kinda cool' might be a more accurate slogan.
