    iBooking it.

    Well, that's all his fault, isn't it? }:) I am less enamoured with the iceBook G3s (as opposed to the fruitBooks, which are whimsical and solid machines). I have my brother-in-law's dual USB G3 and the backlight is dead on it, and I hear of lots of them with recurrent issues like this. Plus...

    Password protect pre-OS 9

    Well, there was At Ease, which Multiple Users in OS 9 is the direct descendant of, but it's a separate package.

    TenFourFox on Intel OS X 10.4

    We'll just start with 17. A lot of people have asked for this, but since I don't do Intel Macs, it's not a segment I can serve in. Open an issue on Google Code so we can track it.

    Bought a near mint Pismo

    Careful with pipelining: some servers don't like it. You can enable it in Classilla as well, but there is a warning.

    iMac G4 questions

    I'd probably use something like a nylon spudger or putty knife, anything that was plastic, not metal (or you'll scratch the die). You don't have to get it all off; just make sure the paste layer is even when you get it back together.

    Emulators

    SoftWindows sort of worked, but not well for DOS games. Even on this quad G5, DOSBox does need a lot of resources, though I can usually run 286 and 386 level software without too much difficulty. However, the best DOS games emulator I ever used was VirtualPC 3.0. It won't run on OS X, but it...

    C++ 'vector' question - System 7

    Yeah, I suspect that version's STL isn't (fully) C++98 compliant.

    TenFourFox on Intel OS X 10.4

    leitec, would you be willing to generate such a build? I'll take the fixes; file an issue against me on Google Code. You should be able to recover the changes you made with a simple 'hg diff' in the root of the tree.

    iMac G4 questions

    It needs thermal paste. I would not reassemble it without it. It's not that hard to do.

    C++ 'vector' question - System 7

    What CodeWarrior is this, again? It might be using a different version of the standard.

    Bought a near mint Pismo

    Pismos really are delightful units. :approve:

    800MHz eMac smokes 1.42GHz iBook G4 on Leopard!

    What was the "speed test" of which you speak?

    C++ 'vector' question - System 7

    ITYM #include (note no .h).

    Where are all the programmers?

    Perl 5 works just fine with System 7 and can make very credible GUI apps. The main problem is distribution of the runtime. That said, FutureBASIC and CodeWarrior are still my preferred Classic dev environments. 6502 NOW!

    *best* Video card for a XServe G5

    It's not limited to Solaris so-called admins. I've seen a lot of AIX guys who are the same way (if they need a fix and there's not an APAR for it, they don't know what to do). And I say this as an owner of AIX hardware ... Besides, isn't being able to read sendmail rules part of the path to...

    Where are all the programmers?

    No, it should be fine for the purposes you need. Note that Twitter is moving to a full OAuth system for API 1.1, so you will need to be able to handle that as well. For TTYtter, for example, I had to implement HMAC-SHA-1 signatures, and your network library will require SSL.

    Themes For Classilla?

    Tim Grissom maintains some. Look on the Classilla FAQ: http://code.google.com/p/classilla/wiki/AAATheFAQ

    *best* Video card for a XServe G5

    I don't doubt it's convenient. But we did a lot of local changes over the years, and a binary blob gets in the way. I remember hacking an ODBC backend because it didn't like something about our HP K250, for Ford's sake. We also did a lot of customizations to sendmail, some of which I took with...

    *best* Video card for a XServe G5

    Spawning just seems to cause all these problems. ;) (And remember, the problem with teen pregnancy is mounting.)

    No, I was thinking of the seminal tome, "King Osiric Teaches Mac Programming To Barbarians." :I feeef, what version of CW is this?
