Well I've yet to see anyone with a pink one so I'll be the unique one... Also, it's always a topic for conversation. If someone sees me with a blue one, "Hey, it's a shuffle". If someone sees a pink one, you can expect what the reaction will be. Always good to grab attention.

Why don't you buy RED and do some charity, eh?

aryayush -
What do you mean by "fonts are installed on OS X simply by double clicking on them"?

Whenever you download a font from the Internet (i.e. a 'TTF' file), you just double click on it and it gets installed. No need to copy it to 'C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\'.

BTW, if you haven't used it even once, launch the Font Book application once. It is particularly awesome.

2) I'm not a drunkard. Remember, no name calling. Not cool with it.

3) Don't dare insult my goan heritage. If this is the case, I might as well take a shot at everyone else here... I don't think you would like it if someone insults India now would you?

iMav, c'mon man! Please don't resort to name calling, even if it is just for fun.

I second that.

They are quite a rarity too.

Heh heh! Good expression.

Guys, if you ever change the look of your Mac (not "hackintosh") desktop, please show us what it looks like. Here's mine:

[goobimama]

Nice desktop mate. The wallpaper really brings out the feel of transparency in the menubar...

 

[aryayush]

Thank you!

Can anyone guess which application is the eighth icon in the Dock, from the left?

 

[iMav]

hey guys is it possible to copy the whole os hdd as a backup and then re-install the whole os as in keeping all previous settings

if yes please lemme know

 

[goobimama]

Let me introduce you to another friend of mine, Disk Utility....

To do that you will need to boot up using the OS X DVD. Fire up disk utility and make a disk image of your startup disk. When you want to restore that backup, just open disk utility by booting the OS X DVD and restore it.

 

[iMav]

so after doing that as in getting a start up disk backup do i need to install os x before running disk utility to restore ?

 

[goobimama]

No. You just boot through the OS X DVD and restore that image onto your startup disk.

Of course, don't rely on this and have some other form of backup. It works, but if something goes wrong, I'm far off so you won't be able to vent out your anger...

Why using YIM? I like Adium better than Y!

Also how to get the window (Finder?) like how you got?

 

[preshit.net]

@Doctor:
Adium still has some features less. Like Video, receiving files etc.

That's coverflow mode of finder in Leopard.. if I'm not wrong.

 

[drgrudge]

^^
Ohh... never knew that. Adium has a super cool UI and I can simultaneously connect to Y! and GChat.

If I'm correct, Y! 8 Beta doesn't support Video as well. Any other multi chat client other than Adium around?

 

[aryayush]

Trillian Astra is coming soon...

I hate it that every good thing in the instant messaging department on OS X is always "coming soon".

I have never liked Adium for some weird reason. I don't really know why though. It is pretty good...


That icon, by the way, is Greedy Torrent.
