Re: Google

2012-01-27 Thread cm
One way to minimize the information Google can collect on you is to change your 
default search engine to Bing. In Safari this is an easy operation. In the 
search text entry field at the top right in the tool bar, click on the 
magnifying glass symbol and towards the bottom of the drop down select Bing.

The change is not ideal as your personal search information is now directed to 
Microsoft, but if you like me have a gmail account, it will minimise the amount 
of information held by a single company.

Googles slogan, don't be evil these days only holds ironic value. :-)

Re: Google - only if you are logged in.

2012-01-27 Thread Brian Risbey
I was concerned on this matter but found a link:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/faq-googles-new-privacy-policy/2012/01/24/gIQArw8GOQ_story.html

Inquiry:
I don’t have a Google Account, but use Google search. Am I affected?:No. The 
new policy only applies to people who have a Google Account linked to services 
such as Gmail, Picasa or YouTube and are signed in.


So a simple use of Google without logging in will not collect an information.

Hi, Ronni, Rob and Carlo,

Sorry about the delay in replying.  

On 23/01/2012, at 5:49 PM, Ronda Brown wrote:
 I would prefer to have Lion installed on the #1 Drive (Default Boot Drive). 
 If you are going to be using Lion as your main OS.

I'm still staying with SL as the main OS, at least for now.

 After saying that though; it should install on the 3rd Drive if it is 
 formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) and GUID Partition Table.

Yes.  It is now installed there and seems to work well.  No problems.  I 
haven't migrated anything over yet.

By great good fortune, my favourite graphics program (the reason I have 
Bootcamp and Parallels) has just been ported to Mac and I have been having a 
wonderful time beta testing it on Lion.  Whoopee!  It goes like greased 
lightning.

 As to where Windows has to live, mine is on a partition on one of the other 
 drives - not Drive 1, and works quite OK there.
 You probably installed Windows originally on a drive in #1 slot and then 
 moved the drive to another slot.
 
 Windows can only be installed in the #1 slot on a MacPro if there are any 
 other drives in it. 
 (You can put it in any slot after it's been installed.) 
 And Windows can't be installed on an External drive from a Mac.
 
 Is it Windows 7 in Bootcamp?
 Windows 7 in Parallels Desktop?

I have XP in both Bootcamp and Parallels on Drive 2.  XP must be less fussy 
about where it goes than later versions.

Many thanks to all who replied to my questions.

Pat

Pity about the incomprehensible web address  -- 136213.mobi. Unless it is a

 That's a good tip, thanks David. I now have the site more than bookmarked, it 
 is added as a launch item on my iPhone screen (if you want to do the same, 
 while browsing the page in Safari, click the curved arrow icon in the bottom 
 toolbar and select Add to Home Screen).
 
 Pity about the incomprehensible web address  -- 136213.mobi. Unless it is a
