There has been an increase in overall adversarial posting as of late.
If any more threads devolve into OS X vs Windows, Mac vs. PC, iP[ao]d vs Android, they will be locked without prejudice and without warning.

Hey guys, have a question about whether I can do something in photoshop
Let's say I have a layer of text (not yet rasterized).
Is there a script, action, or procedure I can use so that I can take each individual character and move (or copy) it to it's own separate layer?
The text gets...

Does anyone know if there's an option in Visual Studio 2003 to allow code folds on
#if / #else / #endif compiler directives?
I'm dealing with code that has a lot of compile-time definitions, and debugging it is getting to be a pain.
I'd like to hide the code I know I am not compiling for...
So, I found out that my company is going to be scaling WAAY back (basically from 70 people to 4!)
Right now we have 2 sites, with an exchange server and an AD domain controller at each.
What I want to do, is basically move all of the mailboxes from site2 onto site1's exchange server, and...

About damn time! A free alternative to iPhoto.
I love Picasa on the PC, nice to have it on the mac. (not that I dislike iPhoto, but I like alternatives)
Another year, another MacWorld.
(Perhaps the last one, if MacWorld can't sustain without Apple).
Discuss the rumours and reveals in this thread only please.
After the thrill is gone I'll let seperate threads of new topics be posted.
Thanks all.
If you do, I'd like to ask if you can get me any contact info for them.
I have 2 domains with them but I can't get in to my account any longer and I need to call / email them.

One of my clients is a medium business (small based on employee count, but medium based on financial holdings).
Right now they are chugging along happily on a Win2K3 AD, fairly simple setup.
However, they have several servers to attend to, and I wanted to see what you virtualizers thought...
So I am troubleshooting an HP laptop (dv8000), and it's problems are puzzling, to say the least.
Neither the built-in Ethernet work, nor the built-in Wireless.
Eth is a realtek rtl8139, wifi is a Broadcom b/g adapter.
The ethernet can't get an IP (always gets a 169 auto address) and...
Just an FYI to all iPhone 3G Owners.
Apple has recalled the mini-power adapter that was included with the 3G iPhone.

So today's the day that we get to see what Apple has up it's sleeve for the iPod / iTunes product line. The event starts at 10am PT / 1PM EST
Please use this thread to discuss the developments as they come up, and post your feeds / liveblogs.
This thread will be un-stuck once the event is...
I have to say... Apple's Pro Apps are really cool to mess with.
I've used FCP and DVD Studio Pro for quite some time, but never really messed with anything else outside of those apps.
Today I was in a friend's editing studio, just BS'ing the day away, and one of his effects guys was doing...

Hey all,
I have a 3Com superstack 4200 (50 port, 10/100) switch that is giving me grief at the moment.
I have 4 ports on the switch (ports 5 - 8) that are just acting really funny.
Ports 5 and 8, no matter what I do, will not let traffic pass through, although they get link status (both...
Hey guys.
We're having an issue with Outlook / Exchange (both 2003 versions).
Some users are trying to search e-mails in their mailboxes, and the advanced find isn't returning all results, or it returns NO results.
I've verified this, for searching for keywords that I *know* are...
So it's going on now, and the usual suspects have their liveblogs going on.
I'm hoping to see Exchange support (DirectPush please! Then I can get an iPhone)
I'd like to see what the SDK looks like. Being a developer at heart, I'm always interested in those things.
Any other predictions /...
Ok,
So I think my xbox just took a shit on me :(
It just started freezing up, with a weird checkerboard pattern on the screen.
Funny thing is, I played a bit last night (maybe 45mins to an hour) with no issue. (see my post in the undertow thread)
Is the RRoD imminent?

So I got an e-mail from Apple today stating that Office 2008 ships on January 15th.
I can't wait. All the reviews I've seen so far (from the alphas to the betas) have been quite positive, and I am looking forward to the new ribbon interface (as well as full UB support)
