Acid3 Test

I did an Acid3 test with a few browsers and these are the results I got.  For those unfamiliar, as I understand it, Acid3 is a test to see how compliant a browser is with current standards with the W3C . Browser # 1: Chrome by Google.  Running under Windows Vista Home on my Mac in VMWare. 79/100 Not bad for a new browser.  I'll be curious to see what the Mac version will do when it comes out. Browser #2: Firefox v.3.0.1 Mac OS X 10.5.4 71/100 Not as good as Chrome, but I have a PILE of extensions on Firefox. Browser #3: Safari 3.1.2 Mac OS X 10.5.4 75/100 Better than Firefox but still lower than Chrome. My take is overall they seem to perform about the same but I'll stick with Safari for now.  I use Firefox for much of my web browsing, but Safari is fast becoming a close second. Someday, maybe I'll test Opera too. Cheers!

(Thanks, JK) Duplicates and old apps gone! If you wish, you can make a Service that will do it using Automator as well: Open Automator (Launch Pad or Applications folder) Create...

Do You Need to Defragment a Mac’s Hard Drive?

--> Do You Need to Defragment a Mac's Hard Drive? About Focus on Macs In my mailbag this week, I found a couple of questions about defragmenting a Mac's hard drive. This question usually comes from new Mac users, or individuals who switch to the Mac from the Windows environment, where disk defragmentation utilities abound. Some individuals want to know which third-party disk defragmentation app they should use, or wonder why there is no defrag tool in OS X. Courtesy of Apple OS X does have disk defragmentation capabilities, but they're built into the system rather than a separate tool. Since OS X 10.2, Apple has included automatic defragmentation in the Mac OS. In essence, the Mac OS has built-in safeguards that attempt to prevent file fragmentation from occurring; it's also able to repair fragmentation, should it occur. This means that for the average Mac user, there really is no reason to worry about disk defragmentation, at least not as ...
