did it when they went 386 - 486 - Pentium. Supposedly that was because it's too hard to trademark a part number. As in 'impossible'. Also, there was an Intel 586 already, but it was an 82586 Ethernet controller rather than an 80586 CPU. -- Jim

If you have enough lawyers you can get away with that kind of thing.

i have always hear it as oh-ess-ex but now i read where it says that 0h-ess-ten is actually correct. anyone know? It's ten, because it came after nine, which came after eight, which came after seven, which came after six, which came after five, which came after four, which came after three, which came after two, which came after one, which came after zero-point-something. There is a detectable pattern there. Lots call it EX anyway. Few care one way or the other. -- Jim

There is a detectable pattern there. True. I can see how people were confused, though, since abandoning logical patterns has become fashionable in the computer field. Microsoft has done it twice, with the transition from Windows 3.11 - Windows 95, and with Windows 2000 - Windows XP. And of course Intel did it when they went 386 - 486 - Pentium. Supposedly that was because it's too hard to trademark a part number.

If I'm farther back than the drive wheels, I brake; otherwise I accelerate, if I have room, because I'm closer to that end. A truck driver in heavy traffic has a hard job to do and I think it's common courtesy to make his/her life easier. Sometimes I'm psyched out by truck drivers who forgot to turn off their signals, though. Seems to happen about one time out of four. I'll hang back for a mile or two and then give up when I realize they're not going to make a move. Must be too noisy up there for them to hear the flasher relay. My current pet peeve is dump truck drivers who don't tarp their load. I've caught more rocks on I-5 than on any other freeway I've ever driven on. Windshields seem to be a regular

Re: [MBZ] correct pronunciation of OS X
I had somebody call once who claimed to be running OS X tigerpanther... Or better when I ask people What version of the Mac OS is that? and I get OS 10. And I say OS 10 point what? and get Ten point panther... And they're actually running 10.2.6. The joke there is that 10.2.6 is Jaguar. -Curt - Do you Yahoo!?

We have a 2003 IMac with v. 9.0X OS and want to upgrate to OS 10.XX Questions: 1) Is this upgrade available for FREE at the Apple website? 2) Will we wipe out all our files if we do upgrade the OS from 9.0X to 10.0X ? 3) Should I even attempt this at home, or should I ask my computer genius son to do it for me? I would recommend 4) save yourself the heartache and just buy a new Mac Mini (with OS X preinstalled, of course). Getting OS X running on a G3 is usually not a problem, but it will be painfully slow. (Your mileage may vary, of course. I use a Sawtooth [2nd-gen G4] maxed out with a 1.2 GHz accelerator, Radeon 8500 video, and 1.5 Gb of RAM and I still feel like Tiger is sluggish, but many are happy with it.)
