General Prepress / PDF Exploits on the rise
September 23, 2008, 01:36:31 PM
Most of us here receive pdfs if we're lucky, might be an idea to keep your browser plugins etc. up to date, depending how these files come to you. PDF attacks are on the increase apparently

General Prepress / Dear Adobe
August 26, 2008, 01:06:02 AM
Here's a website where you can gripe at Adobe about all the things that annoy you with their heavily bloated software with a crap interface that hasn't had any useful improvements since the pallet well in Photoshop CS2

Well worth reading as well, is John Nacks look at it. He's the product manager for Photoshop

Macintosh / Hidden Settings
July 08, 2008, 07:36:03 PM
Here's a nifty site that lists a whole load of hidden settings in OS X and applications that aren't available via the usual preferences.

Tired of using 'Genie' or 'Scale' when minimizing your dock? Then try the mighty 'Suck'!

Tinkering with preferences on the command line can seriously cripple your Mac. Do take care.
