...ROLL YOUR OWN All the major e-mail programs (Microsoft's Outlook, Apple's Mail, Qualcomm's Eudora) provide software tools for building personalized junk-mail filters. The Mail program that comes with Apple's OS X is probably the best. It learns to separate the wheat from the e-chaff during a training session, and then lets you fine-tune the results with JUNK/NOT JUNK buttons. Like Outlook and Eudora, Mail also lets you write your own specific filtering rules, but that's a tedious and potentially endless exercise. Outlook users might be better off buying a third-party...

It weighs as much as an iPod, and with just 2 MB of memory, two hours of battery life and the old Palm OS 4.1, it can't be as quick and versatile as a full-size PDA. Fossil recommends that you stick to applications "designed for the smaller screen size."

Recorded entirely on Mac OS-X (a fact of which the band of brothers and a friend are inordinately proud) during their Fall 2002 tour, this self-titled release is the first of their oeuvre that truly captures their essence. Even though the abundant guest artists that grace their previous albums are gone, their absence isn’t felt—the live setting charges the bare organ, drums and guitar with an energy that is lacking in their too-reserved studio works...
...press was an active and nationally known workshop at the time, and its leader, Gino Lee ’86, went on to become a well-known graphic designer and co-creator of the Mac OS X font “Zapfino...
