Mac 101: Don't move those files! {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jan 25th 2008 10:28AM I had a user do this to me. She told me, "My emails are gone". I couldn't figure it out - I had just updated her system, had been very careful to move everything over properly. I found that the "MS User Data" folder was in her trash, so I moved it back (thinking nothing of it). A little while later, she complained again. Her emails were missing again! At that point I asked if she had deleted her "Microsoft User Data" folder - she had. When I asked why, she didn't know. She just deleted it because "she didn't think it was necessary". Sigh. (Technically it is really MS's fault for putting the folder there, as it doesn't belong in that directory).
Show floor video: Extensis Universal Type Server {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jan 17th 2008 9:47PM Sounds great! I don't mean to harsh on Extensis, largely the products work... and both servers streamline deploying/managing both fonts and content. It is just painful as both are lacking something, and I never felt the price was totally worth it when managing the server end. The site for the new server really shows an intriguing departure from that "server-but-client" feeling that the current products have.
(I will say, font issues have gone away since getting X1 server. Either that, or people aren't telling me :D)
Show floor video: Extensis Universal Type Server {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jan 17th 2008 7:15PM Wow! This actually looks like an honest-to-goodness departure from Extensis ServerCarpWare(TM)*. I use/manage both Portfolio Server and Suitcase Server X1, and both seem to me to be hacked-up versions of the clients. This looks like they are actually re-inventing their product, and it looks promising. This might explain why, when we purchased Suitcase Server X1, Suitcase Fusion had been out for a while, and had been a Universal Binary while X1 (server & client) never made the leap. I hope this bodes well for portfolio, a product I dearly want to like.

Leopard Day in Knoxville {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Oct 26th 2007 8:59PM There were female Apple employees at 12 Oaks wearing Leopard tails & ears. Not too sure if that was mandated by Apple or not :D
The store was packed, security guards on hand, a dedicated line to purchase Leopard (I don't know i it was to buy anything else). Otherwise, the entire store was setup for demo stations, with an Apple employee at every mac or so showing a different feature off.
