dynamicvworking out the key from the lock and pass onto another locksmith to make an exact copy to open a house or allow others to tour your house for free is not wrong? gee, what's the point of the lock on you door? what's the point of any password on your keychain (access)?

I had just been hired to work at a large foundation two weeks prior to September 11. Since I was living in San Francisco at the time and the foundation was across town, I had to get up pretty early to make the two bus transfers that would get me there by 9am.
My alarm was set for 5:45am Pacific (8:45am Eastern), so I was waking up right as the first plant hit the WTC. At the time, I listened to one of those stupid morning DJ shows - "Sarah and Vinnie," and both were kind of off-the-wall almost every day. So after a song ends, Vinnie breaks in and reports that a plane just hit the WTC and makes a crack about bad piloting. A couple more songs play, and the 6am news update hits. In the meantime, I had rolled out of bed and popped on the TV to see what was happening - sure enough, there was a gaping hole in the top of the WTC on all networks.
With the 6am news droning on in the background on the radio, I turned up the volume on the TV - as I was doing so, I caught the second plane hitting the WTC live as it happened. Suddenly, from the radio I heard Vinnie (who was always kind of a numbnutz) scream "oh, *****, a second plane just hit the other tower, I just saw it on TV!" At which point both Sarah and Vinnie stopped talking for a second, and one of them said, "This is a lot more serious than it looks, that was no coincidence. I think all bets are off for today."
I got up and turned on CNN in the main room of our apartment and it really looked like all hell broke loose. I couldn't take myself away from the TV, but did call a good friend to tell him to, "wake the hell up and turn on your TV now!"
About 7:30 (when I was still in my bathrobe and should have been leaving to catch my first bus), my mother rang in on the telephone - apparently, my cousin, who was a NYC Firefighter was called from off shift to help with rescue efforts and my aunt was terrified. Got another phone call from work saying "don't come in today!" and stayed watching the tele until about 4pm.
Incidentally, my cousin couldn't be reached the entire day, so when the buildings collapsed the family feared the worst. He finally rang in sometime in the early morning Sept. 12 to say he was OK.
One of those days you remember every detail, that's for sure. Kind of like Challenger disaster when I was in 8th grade in NH and no-one knew what was going on.
[Edit]:
We'd just been in New York two years prior to 9/11. I'd recored the whole trip with my video camera. A short bit of it included the Trade Centre ... standing right at the bottom looking straight up.
I was living in NYC until Jan 1999 - went to three meetings and one government reception in the WTC buildings. The reception was at Windows on the World, the restaurant at the top of one of the towers. The views were spectacular...

In answer to his other question, whether the backlit keyboard will make a re-appearance in the next MBA ... I would say the jury is out.
Some are convinced there are technical reasons why the blk isn't in the current model, and those same reasons will prevent the inclusion of the blk in the next MBA.
I, on the other hand, along with others, don't agree with that assumption, and think there's a decent chance the next MBA will in fact have a backlit keyboard.
Yes, I agree. Like the lock switch on the iPad, this is frequently requested (according to this and other Mac sites).

Just got the MX1000 yesterday on sale.
That one does support OSX, but not sure about MX900.
Haven't really used the MX1000, cept for 5 mins, the grip feels good, seems to track very well, looks damn nice, and seems to be alot better than my old Microsoft Wireless.

So first time mac user here, Ive decided to finally take the mac plunge from PC and it's been frustrating tonight I was wondering if I did the wrong thing.
I went on Tuesday to get the imac refresh and installed another 8gb of ram, the programs pop up extremely quick so I was very happy with that, however I would get random crashes with my safari while I'm surfing the web, whatever I figure I just needed to update safari.
I poped in my starcraft 2 disc and it gave me an error while installing, thought it was weird but then just went ahead to do a system update, after I install about 955mb worth of data it gives me a error during installation I was then a little worried, tried it again error occurred once again. I went to the apple support site to download the 10.6 manually, once again I get an error while trying to installing.
I went into app>disk utilities did a verify and it says hd is okay no need to repair anything, am I missing something? please help me last thing I want is a defective imac/hdd. I wanted this experience to be a good one from the get go.

1.) Is it possible to search Google from the address bar in Safari like how it is in Chrome? If so, how?
I don't think so. The google search is right next to the address bar. I personally like this better since it retains the last search entry even if you go to a different address.
2.) Is it possible to remove the Google search search bar on the top right of Safari? If so, how?
Yes, goto menu View -> Customize toolbar and make things the way you want.
3.) What are Keychains?
Keychains are a Mac OS X native mechanism for storing passwords. Goto /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access to view and modify your stored passwords.
4.) Is it possible to make the tabs in safari have a bigger "x" so that they're easier to close? If so, how?
Not that I know of.
5.) Is it possible to move the new tab button right next to the last currently open tab? If so, how?
You can click on a tab title and drag and move it anywhere in the tab bar. Is that what you are asking?

Nope, vniow, I can't load it in Opera, Firefox, Camino, IE6 or 7. Only Safari. On Windows I had to download the file and open it in GIMP.
EDIT: OK. Loading it with Quicktime's Picture Viewer on Windows works. Strange. :)

**Kernal Panic Issue I THINK?***
Hi I am having issues with my White Apple Macbook 13" 2.4ghz late 2008 model...One of the macbook memory slots is damaged but the other one is good...It runs fine and all before until now... How do I fix this and salvage this mac? I took apart my macbook and I found out that the adhesive on the macbook CPU + Heatsink is look...I can not screw in any of the screws to the heat sink as it does not fit because it dosent seem the case has any screw holes in it ( I just replaced the bottom housing)...
What do I need to buy the make the gray adhesive under the heat sink and on the CPU it self to make it stick? Will it fix the "shut down / restart " (kernal panic screen issue? )
**I have attached pictures for you guys to see. Let me know what I need to do...thank you..**

At some point arn may decide to drop the ratings or replace them with some other form of news story feedback but there's nothing about to change at the moment.
As it says in the FAQ, the ratings mean different things to different people. Some people simply like to rate threads, so the feature is provided for them.
If there's significance to be found in the results I think it would be from comparing one article's ratings to another, not from trying to determine exactly why people rated a story one way or the other.

I'd like to get a new 17" MBP and I'm wondering what the verdict is on SSD's... are third-party drives still a better option than the ones that come stock from Apple? If so, which brand/model is best? Also, what's the status with TRIM support and garbage collection in all this? Does Apple's current OS/hardware have either of these yet? If not, will Lion have TRIM support?

Hey,
Ive been having great speed losses and only just figured out why.
I do a speed test while im next to the router... give's speeds of 48meg. I ran this a few times and all were 47-49meg.
I then went into my bedroom and speed tests ranged from 11meg-20meg....i did this a few times... then went back to the same room as the router and speeds again were 47-49meg.
So looks like a distance issue... howevever... i live in a bungalow and the distance from me to the router is about 10 meters (if i was to ignore the 2 walls inbetween). However my laptop shows full 5 bars (the maxium) for signal.
Im using the standard virgin media N router (Dlink)
Any suggestions? Ive tried going on different channels but still the same issue is present.

I have a friend with a similar machine where I think the graphics chip is getting flaky -- replacement logic boards are surprisingly expensive, though I found a couple places that will fix it mail-order for around $350 US. Apple might even fix it for around that price too. I'll be interested to see what you come up with.
Yes -- I posted on the Apple flat rate $350, out of warranty fix it plan. I was using it to get the logic board replaced on my 2006 original core duo mbp. They started the transaction for me in the apple store at the genius bar, and apparently the only real requirement is that the laptop isn't badly physically damaged or liquid damaged. You could probably start the process with applecare representatives as well, even though you're out of warranty.
They estimated 5-7 days to turn it around for me. After 10 days or so they were still waiting for the part. When I called they expedited it, then after another two days, just offered me a 50% discount on a new mbp.
I happily took them up on their order, and they set up a CTO 15" mbp for me at my request. Ended up saving over $1000 off of the full price. A very nice turn of events that, given how scarce those old logic boards appear to be, may well end up happening to you as well. If not, it's a fairly cheap repair, all things considered.
