    Well I, for one, decided to go out with my girlfriend last night instead of sitting at home clicking refresh on the .Mac web page over and over again to perhaps see something new. Perhaps you should have gone out with your girlfr... oh! I'm sorry. Nevermind.

    gotta admit...

    i really didn't think it would happen, but my .mac membership keeps paying for itself... though i STILL only think it's worth US$50 per year. plus, they have GOT to up the allowable hits for a .mac homepage. post a good shareware app on your page, and you'll be brought down quick once everyone shows up knocking on your website's door.

    Out? You went out? What a waste of time. After staying in and exhausting my girlfriend last night, she begged me to go use the computer so she could get some sleep. Well, until an hour later when she wanted more. Too bad you spent too much time out in public. You could've had more fun staying in. Unless, of course, you have a 'small' problem you'd rather not talk about...

    Cool!

    And to think I was contemplating buying Stuffit 7 (although I've given them WAY too much of money for very little benefit - as the contextual menu was the only part I really used, and that still blows as of 6.5 because it locks out the finder while its working) or spending the less money on drop stuff. Now I can get it for free.

    With large harddrives, I find it hard to justify the incessant upgrades of Stuffit (not to mention the irritations of having every new version change like every file handler on my system, and having to reset all my prefs for the program, expander, the CM, etc, to set the "keep expanding", "delete originals", "don't mount disk images", etc preferences (because for some reason every program is different).

    Just a little reminder to people that they shouldn't let Expander auto-mount their disks for them, as there's usually something whacked with apple's dmg files that cause errors with expander (hey, at least in the old days of OS 9, although others have complained about X as well).

    Update coming...

    Hmmm, Aladdin's giving it up cheap. You know what that means, 7.5 or 8.0 is around the corner...

    update coming... uh, no

    they just RELEASED 7.0. this discount is that it has gotten some pretty bad reviews lately, mostly because it doesn't really DO anything that 6.5 didn't. magic menu, okay, but you can get 6.5 to work with magic menu with a simple hack (just google for it). the new format is not much smaller than the old one, and just introduces another file compression format that everyone has to support.
