Well, I'd also get X11, then you can run a lot of free, open source apps such as "Gimp" but seeing as you're already getting photoshop, forget it. Search Apple's download site for some good dashboard widgets, they can be really helpful sometimes. Some other applications and what they do: -Azureus ^Bittorrent app -ClamXav ^Free, security software for Mac OS X. Personally, I've never had any problems with security, but always have a fail safe. -Handbrake ^Best free DVD ripper alive for Mac OS X. -iWillQuit ^A utility used for when you want you computer to go to sleep and so on, a lot better then Mac OS X's defaults. -RSSMenu ^What I used to read my RSS, very simple, but I love it. -Snapz Pro X ^In case you want to recrod anything that you do on your computer, such as make a PK video. -The Unarchiver ^A MUST HAVE. It's a heck of a lot better then the default Mac OS X un-packager. I got rid of Mac OS X's default one so long ago I even forgot the name :XD: -TinkerTool ^A utility used to modify Mac OS X a little bit. Can come in handy. -TeamSpeex ^The Mac alternative to Teamspeak (a VOIP app. used to talk in a chat room basically.) -VLC ^An alternative to Quicktime for those files that it doesn't support. Personally, it's a little buggy, but very good for being free. That was a long list, but all of those are totally free, so I suggest you start filling up that hardrive of yours :P Sorry for not having the links to all of those, but I'm sure you can just google 'em and find them really easy. -mbball

This is awesome to see the Mac users come out of the closet on here :mrgreen: I never knew there was so many like me. Even with my old eMac G4 which is really slow, and pretty bad for gaming I am still very, very pleased with Mac OS X. I grew up using the old classic, my Dad absolutely hates Windows and so do I. Too bad my school doesn't have some of these hot cakes :( Look, I'm an iFanboy, but there's always a reason. So don't bash us Mac users because we love our computers and always brag about 'em. We do that because in my opinion, they're a lot better then Windows. Now I don't know if you've had past experiences with Macs which weren't good, but over the past year Apple has really steamed up the product line. You can even run Windows if you really like it that much, or need it. Also, the new iMac is actually very competitive in price when comparing it to PCs with the same specs, plus a monitor, and Windows Vista :XD: If you don't like the fact that there's only one exterior screw on the whole computer, even if you hate Apple, then that is just plain out weird. This is the new Apple, who you've got to accept. Simply, they're not trying to invent, but also reinvent. In my opinion, we need that. -mbball ^That was a long post =P~

I feel so bad for missing this, but I've been busy lately. Your accomplishments have amazed me, but mostly the way you play the game. Keep up the great work and never give up. :thumbsup: "I never did a day's work in my life. It was all fun." ~Thomas A. Edison ^Hehe, I like quotes :P In a nut shell, that describes my perspective on how you play this game. 1,001/10 =D> There's a meaning for that, and once you figure out what I meant I'll reply with another post of my random nonsense :lol: -mbball

Hey best friend :D All I can say is, "Wow!" You've accomplished some amazing stuff that I've been there to hear about, or see. But, I've only gone to one of your skill parties :[ (dumb timezone difference.) You've accomplished so much in such a small amount of time and no one can take that achievement away from you. No one. As for your next goals, I don't really expect anything besides you doing your best. Do what you want, when you want. Stated by you, "It's just a game." Thanks for the lesson about that :lol: Keep up the good work :thumbsup: -mbball "Confusion of goals and perfection of means seems, in my opinion, to characterize our age." ~Albert Einstein

That only existed during RSC I believe and now no longer works. On topic, I loved this guide, very detailed and included some of the best information around. Can't wait to see this get more updates.

Wow, this is a big shocker to me. I haven't bothered to read it yet, but let me just say that I think it's a total coincidence that your long, and great(from the comments) story is called dreamweb. A runscape character of mine is called dream--web and I have a poem called dream web, both of which create a thought in my head. When I get some spare time I'll read this to compare our ideas of what truly is a "dream web." Can't wait to read it, mbball

That was absolutely amazing, and very touching. After I read this it made me take a moment to think about the cost Pearl Harbor was to Japan. Great rhyming scheme, great use of words, but most of all great way to get into a person's heart. However, it could use a little work on maybe taking the smaller, average words and turning them into some creative, rhyming words. Great poem nevertheless and I hope to read more from you, mbball

Rofl irl. I have a g4 eMac running 10.3.9 too. Anyways, there is this same thing for Mac I have used it before and I'm going to explain it step by step. 1. Go to Apple->System Preferences->Universal Access http://img459.imageshack.us/img459/8434 ... essue1.png 2. Once there click mouse under the tabbed options http://img459.imageshack.us/img459/8783 ... orerc4.png 3. Turn mouse keys on and click the option under if it you want to http://img459.imageshack.us/img459/1575 ... terzp0.png Please feel free to add this into your guide. I'm sure it would greatly help out all the Mac OS X users.

Me living in Michigan I am really mad that this passed. Both of my parents voted no due to the stupidity of this proposal. I definitely think this was due to uninformed voters. My mom(a teacher) said that now there won't be separated gender teams for sports and schools due to this proposal including education. Along with many other things like college admission. Wait until this thing causes the Michigan Massacre of people suing each other. Posted on a Mac, mbball

Didn't realise this was still going, was going to create a new thread. Tomorrow I'll be posting 2 new poems, and they're going to be much better then any of these. Thank you foolgool for telling me about that I'll edit it tomorrow. Edit: Added my two latest poems I hope everyone enjoys them. Posted on a Mac, mbball

Wrong, Twins had the tiebreaker. Red Sox games are better :P. No really, is Detroit actually a nice place to go to??? No, but the sports areas are very nice, but nothing really worth visiting. But Michigan's Great Lakes are one of the most beautiful sites in the world.

Well, being from Detroit I'm mad that the Tigers didn't win, but I really don't care because the fact that we went from having 119 losses two years ago to being the best team in our division that just makes me smile. If you ever get a chance to go to a Tiger's game then you'll have one of the best experiences of your life. The playoffs got me fired up for baseball season and the Tiger's gave me inspiration. Next year the Tigers are going to come back with better pitching control hopefully and win the World Series without making any mental mistakes like they did. Posted on a Mac, mbball

Thanks, thought my thread was gonna be dead. The girl I was writing about I don't like her anymore she got to be a wagon. I like another girl but I don't think I'd ever write poetry about her like I used to.

Thank you for the comments and about that last line...hmmm. I thought that it was a great closer, but please feel free to suggest a new verse or something. I'm trying to think about something, but me and my girlfriend broke up so I kind of lost some inspiration :( Edit:Just attempted a fix at the last verse. I think it turned out fairly good. Edit2:I just added all my poems that I could find on my computer, and I think these may be my last.

I also am from michigan. Snowed here... I don't hate it unless it spoils my fun... Love it when it gets me a day off of school. : Go Michiganders! Michigan ftw! Anyways, first snow here in Michigan today. It sucked I had to have football practice in it and I didn't have a sweatshirt.
