Shared - what is going on
Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:16:19 +0000
Just clicked on Finder and 'Shared' was showing and open there were 6 icons
that looked like computer monitors all with different peoples names except
for 2 that said Workshop and acer and what I presume is a computer name. I
have no idea what they are or where they came from. The only think I can
think off is I ...

Snow Leopard: ...but what's happened to Spaces?
Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:40:58 GMT

switch to a space with open windows for the application" (snappy title, no?).
Under Leopard, turning this preference off meant that if I clicked on an open
