Im sure this is in here somewhere, but why is it that on the Windows side the charger and computer gets so damn hot! I like coming on NT on the Windows sidebecause I know that all of the pics will load unlike when I use Safari. Any reason why it overheats like this?

i pretty much save the icons in a side folder.

your thoughts?
thanks love.

they get copied, so u can delete the folders they come in.

so for docs, dock indicators i don't need to hold on to those, i guess i could just go back and browse when i want to change them. or keep them in a folderbecause they are right there.

icons are what i should be holding on right?

or is there a way in candybar to import my collection of icons and docks into the program? the only ones the app found was from an actual container i got offof deviant art and it put those in the app. but how do i copy my collection into candy bar so i can delete the others?


and if i do delete the others, will i be able to pull them out of the program to give to others or whatever?

for the docks i use dockalious, and for candybar ones i use candy bar obviously.

I am thinking about getting a Mac upcoming in the fall for school but moreso, I will be using to make music: create beats, etc. Why does it seem like everyonein the Music Biz has a Apple is it the best for the music.
Should I go ahead and drop the 1,000+ on the Apple or spend that same money and get the best pc 1,000+ can buy?

I would. If you actually make something of it, it's going to be nice to be knowledgeable with a Mac and Logic.

So the only real reason that music people buy mac's is because it is industry standard ( which I can understand )
But I people say that the Mac for that amount you could get a PC that is way better for the Music Biz because it is faster, can store more, and can pretty muchdo mostly the same things

BTW, I like Mac's and would prefer one but I just want to make the best buy
