Tiger Talk

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

If you saw Angela’s post from Friday night, then you probably figured out that we did get the upgrade to Tiger installed on her eMac, and you probably know how much fun she was having with Dashboard widgets. It was a pretty painless upgrade, and once she went to bed Friday night, I spent a couple of hours playing around with it myself. The fact that her machine now sees the Windows workgroup, shows me what shares there are to connect to on the file server, and mounts those shares as drives once I authenticate with the server, blew me away. Huge step forward for incorporating Apple OS X machines into a small office SOHO network effortlessly. It’s always been possible with some expertise and work, but this could be done by anyone in no time at all. Nice…

I’m sure I’ll have more to say about Tiger as time goes on…

    It seems my laptop battery is on it’s last legs. I can only get about 15 minutes of time before it shuts itself down. It comes right back up, with plenty of charge, so I know it’s not a charging issue, it just seems to think it’s not charged and shuts the laptop off. HP’s…

    Spent most of today in bed, again. I finally got hungry and ate something around 5 this afternoon, that seemed to go fairly well and I’ve spent the rest of the evening getting hungry after not really keeping anything down for almost two days. That’s a good sign, right? 🙂 Anyway, I’m way behind on…
