Day: January 20, 2004

Mail.app v1.3.2 on MacOS X 10.3.2 has been crashing regularly for a few days now on the desktop. I wonder if the seemingly effective tip I tried a few days ago has come to bite me in the a–. The app crashes every single time I try and mark any email as Junk, which is bad enough. Now it’s crashing, erratically, whenever I check email. Obviously, a problem.

I’ve submitted umpteen bug reports to Apple, but that no longer feels useful/effective. About time to scour the web, but I’ve been tracking Macintouch and TidBITS already, without seeing anything beyond my own selfish problem. Oh well. If the six people reading this have any ideas, let me know.

Maybe you knew this before, but I didn’t. Pixar has its short films online. These are often a treat at any new Pixar full-length release, but I haven’t seen them all before, despite seeing all the Pixar features. All in QuickTime, of course… Steve Jobs doesn’t get nothing out of being CEO of two companies!

FWB Software admitted in a press release that previous announcements of an x86 emulator for MacOS X were vaporware. “I am sorry to have to admit that apparently the company has been a party to vaporware when it comes to the claims regarding RealPC.” [via Wired News seventh annual vaporware awards]
