Safari has Tabs? I found this nugget of information from James Duncan Davidson's blog tonight:

The big fuss since Safari was released has been the lack of tabbed browsing. I've been wanting it as well, but I've had this nagging suspicion that there may be a better way to do it. D'Arcy Norman appears to have stumbled into it. Take a look. (found via 0xdecafbad)

The screenshot from the post might inspire one to revisit using Safari over Chimera. However, if you've got a piece of #@#$! PowerBook like me, where Safari, Mail and Finder all quit are startup - it's just a hopeless dream. I'm afraid to call Apple Support b/c I doubt they can help and a re-install probably won't help either - unless I do a clean slate install. Sorry Apple, you've made it harder - not easier. It's probably a missing friggen font or something.

NOTE: The screenshot is NOT a current feature of Safari - just a mockup of how tabs might be done. Posted in Mac OS X at Jan 18 2003, 10:23:47 PM MST 1 Comment

Wireless Printer Server - doesn't work Washington Park, Denver I bought a Linksys Wireless-Ready USB Print Server last week. I have a Dell TrueMobile Wireless network setup that works fine with my PowerBook and my XP machine. However, I am unable to get the print server on the wireless network - it just won't show up, and the WI-FI light on the little bastard won't light up either. It works fine when I plugin an ethernet cable - but I want wireless damnit! I'm using a Dell TrueMobile NIC, but I think that should work since it works fine in my Dell with WinXP. Any ideas?
