Toggle Dock Magnification Temporarily
Apple makes it easy to turn Dock magnification on and off in the Dock submenu of the Apple menu. But you can toggle Dock magnification even more easily, and temporarily, by pressing Control-Shift as you mouse over the Dock. This trick can be useful in both directions—enabling magnification when you normally have it off, and disabling it if you prefer to run with it on most of the time.

| Mac OS X 10.2.8 Update Withdrawn
Apple Computer has withdrawn its recent Mac OS X 10.2.8 Update, citing Ethernet problems on some Power Mac G4 desktop systems after installing the update. (Ironically, Ethernet problems were not among the several issues we had encountered with the update.) Apple hasn't said when it will re-issue the update or in what form; if you've been impacted by the Ethernet problem, a reported fix using the Terminal is currently posted on Apple's discussion boards; reverting to a previous AppleGMACEthernet.kext file also seems to seems to re-enable Etheret. Obviously, these solutions are not endorsed by Apple, and we at TidBITS have not confirmed them.
