Yeah, I'll try and see what happens. But when I tried it the first time, there was issues in another socket. But yet to try the 3 pin in the present one.


He had 2 wires connected to a bulb and tried different permutations and combinations in the socket and came to a conclusion that earthing is not in place.
We checked 3 sockets and only one had earthing. Tried charging MBP in that socket and the "vibrations" were reduced to 75% :rolleyes: But that guy said he didn't feel any vibrations.

So guess it's earthing issue and I'll call some other electrician and get the stuff done.

Just remember some idiots connect neutral wire in earth pin of the socket. If 1 socket has proper earthing then he just needs to connect to that socket & move around that wire in every room & connect all the sockets.

Hehe.... why would anyone want girls like that? I want girls who like me, not for MBP, money or other cool things. :D

Well it's not. I still have Tiger on the iBook and tried it out at the Apple store as well. You can't move the bounding box with the spacebar.
Oh. Guess I was wrong then. I do remember moving that selection box when I was on Tiger though... :confused:

^so no azureus?better deluge torrent-it is by far a good alternative for azureus and uses less resources.u need to be using mac ports to have deluge installed.
*forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=401&sid=acc17508a7c7b07ca82869c3bc5f993f

btw ies4osx uses wine emulator+ie6/7 engine.it is in particular useful for website testing.

As for torrenting on Macs, I find Transmission to be more than capable for my needs.
I don't think so. That ratio on TorrentLeech and HDBits does not maintain itself, you know. :p

Array baba. I don't have proper internet at home. What's the point of installing all these things if I only have to get a song or two once in a way? :angry smiley:

Btw, check out this extensive list of free mac softwares. A recommended go-through.

Top Best 55 Mac OS X Free And Opensource Software

Many designers use Macintosh for working. Its software tends to be very visually attractive and usable, but it's not easy to find free software for Mac.
Although some of the freeware that was mentioned in the previous list (that are in my Resources section) can be also run in Mac, there was the need to do a list just for it.

After this, 55 top best freeware for Macintosh:

I'm having this issue with Finder+Coverflow+Keynote. I remember in the keynote you could flip through keynote slides just as flipping through PDF pages. I don't get those arrows. Just wanted to check if it's a bug on my end.

I can do that. No problems.

I have a problem with QuickTime Player. While playing a movie in QuickTime Player in full screen, the Dock suddenly pops out of the bottom if it is not configured to auto-hide. I then have to hide it manually and restore it when I'm done with the movie.

It is very frustrating when you're watching the movie from a distance and you have to fix it twenty minutes into the movie. Anyone else having this problem?
