The menu bar has now to have more icons than in earlier OSX as to run services like dropbox, 1password etc they now need to be in the menu bar whilst previously they were not needed there - now I suspect this might be the app writers fault

Openstep had as a default 4 hppa, sparc, i386 and m68k - I often built stuff on a HP for production use on Intel and 68000 boxes and I think they also had unreleased m88k as well at the same time so internally might have had five way binari

No - the lawmaker is a generalist and does not understand fully the issues for a particular proposal so they need a brief preferably from both sides. For example could you suggest the correct law for dealing with the environmental impact of

Also the scaling - in this case the original had reasonable scaling but it can be manipulated. The changes could be small enough to be random fluctuations on one series and so no real match. However the graph does show that a slightly deepe

I would be the one in the sample who did not find the charts confusing. The two separate graphs are much more difficult to compare - you can't see which elements compare to the same year so lose a lot of information. The information i

Not really the media were covering it a lot in 2008 - Front page headlines in newspapers and first story on TV news. Ok people did not lose money directly. But they were withdrawing from some banks (e.g. Northern Rock) and it made massive e

Possibly because the major software companies made it work on phones. Thus users saw it working on many apps and complain when your app fails to do this. Google, Apple, IBM and MS also did a lot of localisation so their code bases deal with

I remember this - moving to a 386 computer was fun as the speed depended on the clock speed so playable on an AT but not on a 386. This was at work and I don't think we played this on the network even though we played Novell games - in
