Comment An IMDb alternative (Score 2, Informative) 299

I happen to find IMDb to be too commercial for me... Too many ads, too much "Buy this at Amazon" buttons, it really becomes a chore to find information on IMDb these days. Recently, a couple alternatives seemed to have popped up, one of which being a wiki by the name of MovieWiki. It still seems to be in the works, but with more help, it could be an awesome replacement for IMDb. (Disclaimer: I work there)

Journal Journal: Unreal Tournament for Mac OS X

Does anyone know if there are UMOD installers for Unreal Tournament for Mac OS X? I want to install a UMOD on Unreal Tournament X Preview 3 and I am on a Unix File System Hard Drive. Those UMODs include UT Bonus Pack, Rocket Arena : UT and Rocket Arena : UT Bonus Pack.

I would also want to know if I can uninstall UMODs in OS X.

Journal Journal: No! Chimera don't go!!!

Well, I heard that Chimera's gone so, I might as well forget about getting future updates. I've been using Chimera since July. Now, I will be stuck using an unfinished version of Chimera. Unfortunately, Safari wreaked havoc on our G4 and it crashed. So we don't want to use Safari because of that. I really don't like IE for the Mac and Mozilla is slow. I want a Cocoa browser capable of doing what Chimera does. Oh well.

Journal Journal: Suggestion

I've seen many different articles relating to TechTV (my favorite channel). There should be a TechTV category in the icons for the articles.

KDE

Journal Journal: My opinion on KDE 3

I happen to think it mixed all of these elements:

1) the Win98 color scheme
2) the WinXP graphics (as in the shutdown and logout icons)
3) the KDE applications

I saw it on Knoppix 3.1. Thanks to Chris Dibona for this great gift idea.

Journal Journal: 30$ Router

Out here in Canada, my dad got 50$ off anything at Staples Business Depot. Then, he saw a router at 99$. We then saw that there was a mail-in rebate for it that gave 20$ off that router. It ended up around 30$ for a D-Link router.

Journal Journal: GameSpy's FilePlanet is confusing.

I tried downloading off GameSpy and I had to get a GameSpyID or else I can't get to the download link. Then, I saw that you had to pay for the FilePlanet service to get instant downloading.

Is this fair?

Journal Journal: Linux on a Performa 6400?

I am wishing to have Linux on my Performa 6400. The problems are that (1) my Performa has a problem with the SCSI chain (internal), and (2) I have the LinuxPPC 1999 CD. Does anyone know what version of GNOME is included?

Goodbye, magnany

Journal Journal: Palm OS 3.3 Free Upgrade

I just found out that on Palm's website, they put the Palm OS 3.3 upgrade on the "More Software Updates and Upgrades" page. That's great for me and other Palm III users who want to use Palm OS 3.1 software.
