Fixes that vuln (in mRouter) I told you about earlier in the year, where
running a very small program as a normal user gave you a root shell.
Welcome back BTW :-)

For the record, while we're on updates etc, I noticed a slight speeding
up after 10.3.9, but that all went to hell a few hours later, as usual.

Why thank you. Are we going to see The Infamous Birthday Card on your

Hey, thanks. They are at the manufacturer's now. The whole thing rests
on whether me having had them re-soled constitutes violation of the blah

Ouch mate! I would have hung up a Special Crystal for you, if I'd known.

If Software Update thinks you need to download it, then yes. I'm sure a
security update came out post-10.3.8.

I'm not sure what Bluetooth has got to do with it; the update only patches
/System/Library/SyncServices/SymbianConduit.bundle.
It is also quite a small update so there's really no reason not to install
it.
And please don't top post.

No, but you can set the brain-finger interface to not top-post.
And remember, not top-posting is only half the battle. The other half is
snipping all the stuff that isn't relevant, and inserting your comments
after the appropriate quotes.

I've always just used Software Update to keep up to date, and it has always
worked OK for me.
> Can I set entourage 2004 to not top post?
It always sticks the cursor in at the top, so I just scroll down, and type
responses where appropriate and snip where appropriate. It works OK, though
to be honest the whole quoting/snipping/etc malarkey seems quite a primitive
way of working (in all mail/news apps). There's got to be a better way than
this, surely?

No, don't. Tim is only saying that because he's in a lot of trouble and
wants to bring someone down with him, feeling in his twisted way that it
will somehow be better for him like that. As if! In fact, we're even
more annoyed with Tim for trying that on.

Post any way you like. But difficult-to-read messages (top-posting,
broken shift-key etc.) tend to get skipped. At least some of those who
can't be bothered to decipher your message will be people who could
help with a problem or have something interesting to say. Some of them
(like me) are just self-righteous tits.

Yes, but only by hand, if I remember correctly
Agreed. It's when the response is "and please don't top post", without
explanation, as if the poor poster has farted in the lift, that I am
inclined to think, "what a w-anchor".
I also laugh at responses along the lines of "You're saying X? But in
post 123456 on such-and-such date you said X-bar". Well, shock, horror!

Why? Surely consistency is the first prerequisite of logic.
Alternatively, if someone's changed their mind about something,
presumably some significant piece of information or event has come to
light, that would be worth relating.
Or am I missing your point entirely?

That's OK when it happens and is related in that manner. I am referring
to occasions when the response is rather more rabid.
> Or am I missing your point entirely?
My point, for what it's worth, is that debate via this medium is very
often little better than discussions down the pub (not that I ever have
any such). Personally I find it difficult to articulate all that I want
to say in a coherent manner when it has to be via a written medium such
as this. What I might term a good post usually takes me hours to cobble
together. Which is why my response to electronic dumpster divers [1]
will be "So sue me!".
[1] with apologies for the Americanism - not sure if we have an
equivalent.
