If you are thinking about making a Hackint0sh using a Dell Mini 10v, do a web search for “Meklort”. He created an installer to help fix any problems that may occur. All you need after that is an OEM copy of Snow Leopard, an 8GB USB drive, a little knowledge (forums can help) and patience.
Not an iPad, but I can listen to iTunes while I check my mail, surf the web and chat on Adium or Skype.
Under $300 with Mac OSX SL, tax and S & H.
You can also run multiple operating systems (Mac OSX, Windows 7 & Ubuntu).
I hadn’t used Adobe Illustrator for a little while so I ventured over to Vector Tuts Plus to try a tutorial. I found the bunny vector character below which is about as basic as Illustrator gets. Not as rusty as I thought I’d be.
In addition to character design, Vector graphics are also great for company logos because of the ability to enlarge them for signage without pixelation.
remember the good old days of straightening a paper clip to poke in the little hole in the drive tray to mechanically eject a stuck disc? please do not try that today!
here is an easy process to create a quick but reusable Mac app for removing a stuck disc…
Drutil Tray Eject is not new, but here is a practical way of using it…
open Automator, select Custom starting point
select Utilities and drag Run Shell Script over to build window
clear text in box
type: drutil tray eject
click run to test
it should open any/all drives or kick out any discs
go to file/ save as
save in applications folder
title DrutilTrayEject or ForceEjectDisc, etc…
make sure File Format is: Application
Hide extension
next go to the application you created in the Applications folder
change icon
drag application to toolbar
nothing fancy, just something practical…
