MAC support from Friends

I am pretty sure I have a few mates that read this that are avid MAC users.  I have a few questions for my 12" ibook.

1) When I click on a url inside of my mail program (Thunderbird) - it opens up Safari (a browser that I do not use) - I would like it to default to Firefox - how?

2) When I click on a mailto: linkin firefox - it defaults to Apple's mail program - I would like it to goto Thunderbird - how?

Any help would be appreciated. :)

12 inch iBook

I bought a 12-inch Apple iBook last week.  Carrying my 8 pound laptop has gotten old and I don't want to do it on my upcoming trip.  I have gone overseas with my 8 pounder a 1/2 dozen times and don't want to lug it again.  So far...the user interface/user experience of this little bugger is excellent so far.  We'll see if I still like it after a month of using it on the road.

Spyware Crazyness

I just installed Ad Aware on Fernando's computer. He is a Mexican dude that works at Acadia across the street and has been having major probs with his laptop. 1502 objects found on his computer as spyware shit...the most I have ever seen.

If your computer is running slow... try Ad Aware and install Firefox as your new browser.

Mini Mac vs Old Cube

Glennf compares
Ouch - the new one is better on almost all counts and has some things that the old one doesn't - all you had todo was wait 4 years or so.

Portland International Airport: Wifi all over

Donovan and I arrived at 4:50 a.m. this morning and there was no traffic at PDX Airport so we were checked in and through security by 5:05.

Good thing they have free Wifi all over the airport.  Coffee and a veggie scramble later we are at it like it is the middle of the day.  Donovan was just saying how kewl this is...kewl as in handy to have access to data almost all the time.

As a kid, I am not sure I even imagined that shit like this was possible.  As a adult kid, it still amazes me.
