Virgin Install

My good fortune is your gain, dear readers. Whatever do I mean, you ask? I just got a brand spanking new Mac mini at work and I am in the throes of setting it up. Well, it is all set up but I am still working on getting the OS and software installed ...

Virgin Install: Quicksilver

Virgin Install: Growl

My last few picks for Virgin Install have been things that lots of Mac users know about, but this one is a hidden gem (which we have covered before). Growl, much like Quicksilver, takes a bit of effort to get your mind around, but once you get it you ...

Virgin Install: MouseZoom

Virgin Install: NetNewsWire

NetNewsWire is the one application that I spend the most amount of time using on my Mac, and it is one of the first applications that I install when I am setting up a new Mac. I can't imagine using anything else to manage my 550+ subscriptions, and ...

How to revert to the stable version of Flash player

Leopard Spotlight: the upgrade disc gripe

Okay, I just have to vent something, but it might be of interest to others as well. As I mentioned earlier, I picked up a new 24" iMac on Leopard Day. Being old stock, it had Tiger on it, but it included a "Mac OS X v10.5 CPU Drop-in Kit" disc in ...

Virgin Mobile Canada: Fifth Canadian outlet for iPhone

The iPhone is getting yet another carrier in the great white north. Virgin Mobile Canada has announced that it'll start selling the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS in the coming months. When exactly? How much? Can I get a Richard Branson ringtone? ...

Quick QuickTime Q&A

QuickTime was one of the few apps which changed significantly in Snow Leopard. We've heard from some readers who missed the initial reports about it, so we're repeating it here, with some additional QuickTime information. Q: "What happened to ...

Virtual PC 7.0.2 adds Tiger Support

Microsoft Virtual PC 7.0.2 is now fully Tiger compatible. No more annoying "Virtual Transport doesn't work blah blah" errors. Good. If anyone who reads TUAW has one of those developer Mactel boxes out there, then please try this: Install ...
