Do computers ever just work? After hearing souch about how Macs "just work" I guess my hopes got too high. The latest disappointment is with mounting shared drives from Windows to the Mac. It works at first, but after any change, like going from wired to wireless, or sleep, the connection not only stops working but also causes weird problems like hanging system prefs or not being able to shutdown. Why is a stable mount too much to hope for?
Having shared drives also leaves little garbage files on the remote folders. Those little files that start with a dot that are invisible on unix can show on windows. Not too spiffy.
That's it for my first mobile posting by email... Hope it came through okay. (well it mostly did - line breaks were messed up, but it could have been worse)
