   I cannot remember how many times I try to make the `delete` key to actually trash an email in Mail.app. Click [Gmail]/Trash. Click the Mailbox menu, go to Use This Mailbox For, choose Trash. You're done.

   It depends on how much performance you need vs how much capacity you need. Since SSDs can do more I/O in a single drive, even if that drive costs twice as much it will still make more sense than a 4 drive RAID array, for both price and powe

   If someone says they're a charity and they're not, and you give them money, it's your fault. But you still go to your credit card company, dispute the charge, and get a chargeback. This chargeback hits PayPal with a $20+ fee, so of course

    Nothing, really. DC power supplies are available for routers and switches, as well as blade enclosures. It's only less common with single rackmounted servers.

    Did Apple really make a 'breaking change' with the switch to Intel? PPC apps ran with a PPC emulator. As far as I know they didn't break, they were just deprecated. There's a big difference between breaking and deprecation.

    I do admit it was wrong of me to suggest that you would not explore the options of the popup blocker if you did not have it configured. Maybe this is because the predicate nature of exploring the configuration space is less common on OS X.

    If a change is not immediately visible, how would a Cancel button help? Preferences dialogs on Windows are modal, if a change is not visible you can't see the difference until you have committed the change. Especially so if a change require
