Midway City from Spectrum Games & Z-Man Games is one of the projects I worked on this summer, and after an odd delay where it seemed to sit at the printers while they did rain dances or something else that was time consuming but had nothing to do with getting the book printed, it’s been […]
[Alternate Title: Fixing iChat when Video Breaks] The Setup: My Dual 2GHZ G5, Master, running OSX 10.4.2. Upon installing the latest point revisions of Quicktime and iTunes, iChat 3.1 is no longer able to use my iSight for video, even though the microphone on it works just fine.

Unfortunately it doesn’t show the resolution of the image. I’ve messed around with how I invoke Dashboard — now I use the bottom-left corner as the “Active Corner”, combined […]
So, I finally got around to snagging Tiger last night. I made myself promise that I wouldn’t install it until after I cleaned my living room, and sure enough, two hours later I had a clean living room. I did an "Archive and Install", and an hour after putting the vacuum cleaner away, I was […]
