Grounded0's Journal: Christmas presents

I got nice christmas presents this christmas. First, i got Mac OS X Panther and it rocks. I have never seen anything scream like that and Exposé is very good stuff. I also got USB keychain memory, it's very nice stuff. Just put it in a mac and it automatically mounts it on your desktop, too bad i haven't got it working in FreeBSD (yet), it seems the ZIP-drive is da0 and the USB-memory wants to be da0 too so there's a conflict, i must force ZIP-drive to da1 with kernel recompiling. Im particulary amazed on Panther's typography, it's just stunning. Go check all the cool stuff here: http://www.codepoetry.net/archives/2003/10/24/panthers_major_text_services_upgrade.php. With Panther Mac OS X seems to have reached the maturity you would expect (robustness, speed, user-interface), altough im not big fan of textured windows (metallic ones), thank god there are nice patches/fixes for them, you can also disable "textured windows" option with interface builder (i love NeXSTEPish stuff) when you dive into the application package and select user interface files in it.
