For Windows and Linux versions, check out these custom extension builds from Gears Google Group. If you are Mac OS X users you can get it on Google Code.

I’ve tested the Mac version, so far everthing’s working as expected. I believe official builds by Google will be coming very soon if you’re happy to wait.

Requires Firefox 3 and Mac OS 10.4 or higher.

Get it! http://code.google.com/p/firefox-mac-pdf/

SmartSleep is a preference pane that dynamically sets the sleep state of your macbook (pro).

4 states available for you to choose :

1. sleep : machine will go to sleep only (saves state in RAM only, battery keeps RAM contents)
2. sleep & hibernate : machine sleeps and hibernates. (default)
3. hibernate only : machine will go to hibernate only. (saves state on disk, battery will not be used)
4. smartsleep : lets your macbook (pro) just sleep while the battery has a high level. If the battery level drops below a certain point ( default is less then 20% or 20 minutes ) it will switch to sleep and hibernate.

Ok. Have fun with it.

If you migrate from linux based operating system to Mac OS X (which is also unix based os), you’ll be missed your root account. It is because “root” user is disabled by default because it’s so special. But you can enable your “root” account in Mac OS X.

1. From the Finder’s Go menu, choose Utilities.
2. Open Directory Utility.
3. Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
4. Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
5. Choose Enable Root User from the Edit menu.
6. Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields, then click OK.

Yeah. You heard me right. Apple iTunes Store is available for Malaysia. You could choose the country “Malaysia” at the iTunes store. I registered an account with my malaysian credit card, and it works. So finally a iTunes Store for Malaysia. But there’s a limit. We can buy iTunes apps but not music collection. But it’s for with me.

And Yes, you also can upgrade your iPod Touch to the 2.0 Firmware. I’ve successfully upgraded my iPod Touch and all features are working as expected. What i like the most about this new firmware is its ability to install apps just like iPhone. I tried install Facebooks apps and you know what, it’s cool. It has one important feature, facebook chat which is you can’t get from Facebook Website for iPod/iPhone.
