Re: Shutdown, System Sleep, or Display Sleep?
I've set my system to automatically shut-down at about 0200. I found I was falling asleep in bed with my MacBook on my bedside table still turned on far too often. Plus I've found my mac gets incredibly sluggish after a few days left on.

Re: Microsoft shooting itself in the foot?
I read somewhere that they have yet another ad out with yet another member of the 'public' ;). This person claims to be tech savvy, and then claims that Apple makes aesthetics their priority, and not good hardware. Sorry, I bought some new RAM for a laptop running windows the other day (the same ...

Re: Wireless Mighty Mouse
I must admit, I've had few problems with my WMM (aside from the issue that the ball more often than not refuses to do what it's meant to).
I've never experienced the problem with the mouse hanging, although I do think it interferes with me being a guitar hero legend on the wii if it's between me ...

Re: Can a full system restore be harmful?
Hi, and welcome to Info-Mac!
I've done a system wipe a few times on various Macs, and nothing has ever gone wrong with my hardware as a direct result of that. So long as you keep the OS X disc in it's cover, and protect it from damage, and you keep the Mac on a level surface (so it doesn't drop off ...

Re: MacHeist II
I recently partook in MacHeist III, and got nearly $2000 of software for $31 ($39 minus my $8 discount). The software available was excellent (DEVONThink, Delicious Library 2, and BoinxTV ($299)), and I'm definitely happy with the price I paid.

Re: Applecare - worth it?
I must admit, I didn't get AppleCare when I had the chance. I regret it now. Less than a month after my warranty expired, the superdrive failed. It cost me over £200 to get it repaired.
Quite a shock to the system compared to the £40 it would've cost me to buy the protection.
