Cool tool: Change your Mac's boot image with BootXChanger {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jul 27th 2009 9:21AM Very nice, but foes anybody know a way to change the startup sound as well?
SunSpider 0.9 {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Dec 20th 2007 6:02AM These performance measurements would be more telling if the benchmark functions had not been choosen by the same developers whose performance is being measured.
They are probably not consciously skewing the benchmark by choosing things where webkit is superior.
But they have some idea of what is important and that that has influenced both their work on webkit and their choice of benchmark functions.
VMWare's Fusion begins private beta {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Nov 4th 2006 6:16AM One extra advantage VMWare has over Parallels, is that they sit so heavily on the market on Linux and Windows. I work as a consultant where virtualization is used to save some time on software installation and configuration, as we work on different projects.
That means I have to run the virtual machines that have been prepared for me - and these are for VMWare and there nothing I can do about that. I have tried to convert a VMWare machine to Parallels by using harddisk ghosting to duplicate the harddisk, and even if the harddisk is converted to Parallels format this way (which takes hours), I still have to repair the operating system before first boot, as the virtual hardware differs between Parallels and VMWare.
In short, I have to jump through quite a few hoops to get to work on my Mac with the virtual machines i have to work on. If Fusion supports VM's from VMWare (and it would be crazy if not) I wont use Parallels much more, even if I have paid for a registred copy.
