In order to do so, I had to figure out how to make my Mac boot up from the CD/DVD drive, not from the hard disk.

Here are few different methods for booting from CD on a Mac:

• Restart your computer and immediately press the c key. The computer will look for a bootable CD or DVD and, if it finds one, will use it as its startup device.
• Restart your computer and immediately press Cmd-Option-Shift-Delete.
• Restart your computer and immediately press the Option key. Icons for all available startup volumes will appear. Click the one you want to boot from.

It looks pretty.

It’s based on BSD.

But it’s a disk space HOG, with a full install consuming nearly 20GB of disk space.

Fortunately, there is an easy way that you can reclaim 1-2 GB of disk space on your Mac. By default, Apple’s OSX installs hundreds of language (localization) files that you will probably never need. Honestly, how many people out there speak 200+ languages?

I am so happy that I found Monolingual, a handy little utility that will free up over 1GB of space on any version of OSX (Leopard, Tiger, etc.) by removing unnecessary language files.

To free up disk space on your Mac, simply download the file from here and follow the on-screen instructions.

Note that it will take some time to run – it can take up to a couple of hours on some systems to the remove the many, many unneeded files. Still, the precious space that you will reclaim makes it well worth the wait.

I’m not an Apple zealot or anything. In fact, I use Windows XP for my day-to-day computing tasks such as reading email, browsing the internet, writing letters, yadda yadda yadda. The iPhone works great with Windows, except for one little (very) annoyong thing – each time I connect my iPhone, Windows pops up a dialog box asking me which program I want to use to interface with my “Camera”

Look Familiar?

Fortunately, it’s not hard to stop XP from doing that. Just follow these steps:

1) Connect your iPhone.
2) Go to Start->My Computer
3) Right-click on “Apple iPhone” and select “Properties”
4) Click the “Events” tab.
5) Choose “Camera Connected” from the drop down box
6) Choose the “Take no action” radio button
7) Click “OK” to save your changes

Viola, no more annoying Windows dialog box.
