[00:05]<djd>Hi again. I'm hoping there's someone here handy with AppleScript... I've got a Folder Action setup which automatically opens an added file in Keynote. How do I get the AppleScript to close the previous Keynote if there was one running already?

[00:08]<fnavzyac>the signs seem to point that the move to intel will increase apple's computer market share long-term
[00:09]<fnavzyac>it is not hard to build a better machine. it is hard to build better mindshare.
[00:10]<fnavzyac>there is still a lot of "buying a mac == throwing money down the toilet" and "macos is for kiddies" outdated mentality cruft out there
[00:10]<fnavzyac>what is promising is that i see a lot of young developers out there going for apples. this is an extremely good long-term health indicator
[00:12]<szlzzjc>I bought an Apple to write code on originally. I know a few others that did the same thing.
[00:13]<loop-hog>can somebody point me out to the right place on hooking a Mac up to a PC via LAN for the purpose of sharing an internet connection?
[00:13]<fnavzyac>i went to railsconf in chicago and i swear to god there were more Nintendo DS Lites in evidence than pc's. something like 90% of that dev scene uses macs (incl. myself)
[00:14]<zjzw>LOOP-HOG: OS X supports Internet Sharing, look at the Sharing prefpane, in System Preferences.
[00:15]<szlzzjc>buy a switch.
[00:16]<loop-hog>I'm not familure with LAN, can't I just connect a single LAN cable between the mac and the pc, set up some stuff in the software that is already installed on both of them by virtue of the OSes, and then go?
[00:16]<szlzzjc>dial-up, cable, DSL, what?
[00:16]<loop-hog>switch?

[00:17]<smgm1>LOOP-HOG: You can share
[00:17]<smgm1>LOOP-HOG: I connect my Xbox to my iBook all the time for internet sharing

[00:20]<loop-hog>what is a switch?
[00:20]<smgm1>LOOP-HOG: I connect to my wireless (DSL/Cable) via my iBook and share internet thru its ethernet port
[00:21]<loop-hog>I need to go get a longer ethernet cord
[00:21]<smgm1>Or a wireless card for your PC
[00:21]<kgzggfo7>synd3: the better modchips let you disable them so you can still use live
