Sorry, I missed that. How again? No danger if the first partition is the boot partition and is limited to the size if 128 GB. Just don't use Disk Utility on it and you cannot do any harm to the other partitions that won't be visible until you've reset the OF hack and stored it in NVRAM again. If you keep your current 128Gb partition that will still be available, just any new partition you create will not be available. Exactly! You might want to create a small unused partition, one that spans the transition point then create t third partition that uses the remainder of the drive. The transition partition insures that no part of the third partition is available to the OS if the OF patch is missing. Worth thinking about, yes. If your fist partition IS exactly the 128 GB limit, you don't need this though. If part of it was accessible there is the possibility of it being corrupted. Yes. In such a case: avoid using this partition until the OF hack is restored. The danger is of course that OS utilities such as spotlight will write some data to the disk without you recognizing it.

It's a major hassle because resetting the alarm will kill the Mac, which makes zero sense to me since the whole idea of UPS is uninterrupted power so you'd think that you should be able to reset the alarm without interrupting the power, but that's not how it works, so I must then Shutdown and reboot.

In those cases XPF is simply getting the installer to bypass the machine check. If the machine does have FireWire the installer still goes ahead and installs on it. If you don't know if a machine needs XPF or not it's probably best to try without it first. No sense adding an extra level of complexity.

Thank you, I'll try to answer your questions: If the install disc mounts on the Desktop under your currently installed 10.2.3 (why are you not at 10.2.8?), then the first method is to double-click the Install OS X icon of the install disc.

I liked Eudora in 1996. But it was always glitchy for me. For some reasons a certain percentage of people LOVE it and would never switch. But isn't Eudora just a different GUI over Thunderbird now? Maybe it's the GUI I love? assuming we both mean the same thing by graphical user interface. From Wikipedia: On October 11, 2006, Qualcomm announced that future versions of Eudora would be based on the same technology platform as Mozilla Thunderbird and be open source. The current codename for this project is Penelope. Penelope is developed by the Mozilla Foundation, and the project is being led by the former Qualcomm team, including original developer Steve Dorner. I never really liked Eudora because it was freeware written for a University and it was not polished. I equated it to Norton. I spent more time troubleshooting those two programs than any others. I personally hate apple's mail client as well. When people's mail boxes get too large it tends to crash and lockup etc. That's why I use the evil Entourage.

I think that the difference between Client OS X and Server OSX is that the AFP file server in client is limited to only 10 connections, and it does not support mapping home directories to remote clients. Under OS 9, File Sharing was always severely throttled in comparison to AppleShare Server. I think the same is true in OS X but I've never seen confirmation of that. As a file server alone, though it should work, and there are no limitations on SMB shares. Postfix and Apache are both present, so you could set OSX Client as a mail server and web server; you're also free to install other versions of those, which would not be subject to any OSX limitations.

Re: iTunes store question

What I meant was that I no longer have access to the computer I wish to de- authorize. I know how to do it with a computer that is in use. Someone told me it is possible to go somewhere in the iTunes store and de-authorize a computer that is no longer being used. I hope I made that clear this time. Sorry. Same answer, you just deauthorize all of 'em. However, you only get to do it once a year.
