Hi, so this is not a major issue, just an annoyance that seems to have appeared at some point, but never used to occur. I use the shortcut bar at the top of safari, and normally the website links have an icon for that particular site (a tomato for this site for example). It seems that the...

Ok, well, not quite, but I found this story quite interesting, Steve Jobs owned a hackintosh lol Place your bets, which guide did he follow, did he create his own DSDT file, or use one posted by others, did he get full finger gesture support on his sony laptop? Did he secretly prefer it to his...
