Repost of updated, previous post (sounding repeatedly, redundant this morning)…
Added Windows and Linux to the already popular Mac Print Screen Post…

print screen on mac

Gotta luv it w/ no 3rd party software… print screen on a mac… full screen (⌘ + Shift + 3), application window only (⌘ + Shift + 4, then toggle space bar), and screen clip of just the selected area (⌘ + Shift + 4)… cool! Even has camera shooting sound… Details… Gotta luv ‘em!

Windows 7 on a Mac

Windows 7 with Google Chrome via Windows Vista with Virtual PC via MacBook Air with Remote Desktop… Windows 7 on a Mac!

I figured that blogging about my Geek Fun with Windows 7 should start with a post via Google Chrome. Actually, IE8 Beta 2, which comes with Windows 7 Beta, crashed the first couple times. So, I figured that while I was waiting for it to come back up, I’d try to see if I could make more stuff crash and test other software (hehehe), which led to installing Chrome. (BTW, Chrome has not crashed yet. Go figure!) I’m thinking it might be fun to use Remote Desktop on my MacBook Air to remote to my Windows Vista laptop and then run Windows 7 on that laptop via Virtual PC. Then I just put that full screen and it looks like I’m running Windows 7 on a Mac. :P

Oh, and let’s see what kind of traffic this link-baited post brings. That wasn’t the intent, but I realized it was all-full-of-links-n-crap. BTW, check the alt text for the links. I think some are funny… or maybe that’s just me. And, this is still shorter than the 272 words in the Gettysburg Address. Now, that’s getting “Lost in Profundity”… I digress…

Gestures on a MacBook

Toby Getsch — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 18:35:17 +0000

I’m working. I find myself missing things that are on my personal computer, a MacBook Air. I miss the touchpad gestures. I find that using the 2 and 3 finger gestures on the Mac are much quicker than using various mouse clicks and I also like them better than using custom keyboard commands. The new MacBooks have 4 finger gestures too. That would be even better!

NOTE: No, angry, one finger gestures were issued during the writing of this message, nor in the minutes immediately preceding the writing of this message. Just FYI…
