While cleaning out some folders in my harddrive this night I found some screenshots back from October 2007 I didn’t want to keep back.

The 2 following images show an occurence at Amazon.de, the german pendant homepage of the most famous allround-webshop. I’ve taken those while I was peeking around Amazon to see whether Leopard was ready for pre-order and if Tiger would be pricedropped. But they still only had Tiger in their assortement.

Except for…

Huh? Is that a sneaker? I want to see that in detail!

I swear that I didn’t touch those pictures to apply a cheap retouch or anything. It’s the actual webshop I was presented when browsing a category “Max OS X Tiger”.

Probably some product-to-image ID-interference thing occured there. No big thing of course…I’m sure Amazon fixed it the very same day.

Somehow I figured out a little bug in Apple’s Safari:

When pointing on text-links or linked elements, the cursor changes into the hand-symbol for just a millisecond before it quickly morphs back to the default pointing arrow.

This occurs with every link on any website when the browser has been running for a longer time and various websites with probably certain scripts were visited.

The effect is gone after restarting Safari, but it’s meant to come from somewhere. A quick research on the web didn’t gave me much, but I’d like to know where the source for this phenomenon lies.

Does anyone of you have had similar experience?

It occured during the last week, when I someday said to myself:

Man, my PowerBook used to run faster than this.

Then yesterday, while starting the computer I realised that the lovely Apple chimes was missing on bootup, even though the volume was set at approximately 60 percent before (it is often disturbing when you are booting your Mac in an office, conference or what not after you cranked up the volume the day before).

To make a point: I finally had a look at the “About this Mac” dialog and was confronted with only half of the amount of RAM than my PowerBook has built in: 512mB instead of 1GB.
