Using Mac Steam with case sensitive drive
This was a quite irksome when Steam was released for mac and it wouldn’t work on my Macbook, due to running a case sensitive drive. It was quite odd, but I guess the default these days is to let programs do what they will.
I found an excellent walk through below on how to get things up and running. It’s a workaround and has some issues if you are a sysadmin type. I did it, it works and I’m up and running with Steam even if it’s running in it’s own disk image.
Remember to move the Steam.app to the disk image prior to creating the alias and enjoy.

Macbook Wheel – Too Good To Be True
Apple Introduces Revolutionary New Laptop With No Keyboard
With MacExpo 2009 firing on all cylinders, this was too good not to repost.
I have a MacBook on the top of my shopping list and should be able to pick it up early February. Unless of course they announce the MacBook Wheel and can get that within the first quarter of the year.
Enjoy,
Shane
Macbook Bargains
The new Macbook is still calling my name and while Apple doesn’t seem to be doing a lot in the way of post Christmas there are bargains to be found.
The best I’ve seen so far is at Amazon. $100 off on the Macbook 2.4ghz with Free shipping.
$1499 with free shipping on the new Macbook sounds like a bargain by any definition of the word.
There is a bunch of stuff I’m looking forward to tackling in the new year once my Macbook arrives. High on the list are iphone development, movie editing and writing some new music for the kids.
I look forward to mine arriving and will be doing some articles on the tech, programming and programs around it when it turns up on my doorstep.
I know Macmall has had some good prices, especially on the older models. Has anyone seen better pricing that Amazon?
Kind Regards,
Shane
