Jim,
this link has helped me a lot travelling with my iDevices:
http://prepaidwithdata.wikia. com/wiki/ Prepaid_SIM_ with_data
The page is not always up to date - you'll have to check the homepages of the providers - but it gives a very good overview about the rates and possibilities in different countries.

Thank you for the URL. I have no travel plans at the moment, but I am stashing that one away for future use.

Starting to get a bit afield of the topic title, but in the six years since I was last in France, things have changed quite a bit. It looks as though the "DK Eyewitness Travel Guides" which were my fountains of information have been pretty much supplanted (at least for where I'll be going) by their multi-touch iPad apps, which integrate fabulously with Google Maps. We won't have a guide in Paris. In Brittany and Normandy we will, so I won't need to worry about connectivity there (much).

i've seen deals for $49 or so.
I had nothing but problems when i just D/Led PS CS3, i think it was. Adobe stopped supporting it.
i think you could burn a downloaded copy, but i am not convinced.
better to err on the safe side, unless randy, or denver dan, or someone else says otherwise.

I find it's basically one's choice. When I run namebench and it shows
me a radically different result, I do change the base DNS servers to
those that namebench recommends.
I'd say I use OpenDNS about 75% of the time though.
Yes, if you want the improvement that namebench indicates, you must
change the existing server addresses.

Well, actually the preference pane wasn't locked, though I did lock it afterward. One thing I wonder, though, is that the IP address for that network has been replaced by the OpenDNS IP address. Is that ok?

Is it not this simple:-
If you want the best speed (which might change next minute/hour/day), use
what namebench tells you;
If you want the security that OpenDNS offers, simply use that and don't
bother with namebench at all.
I must say that I've used namebench a few times and found that any
improvement is a) slight at best and b) temporary, so you have to repeat
the test and switch DNS servers frequently. I suspect that many websites
cause more delay than most improvements you can get from switching DNS
servers.
I've set our router to use OpenDNS and it will stay that way until I see a
convincing reason to change it.

Yes Otto, that's basically it in a nutshell. I use namebench in a pinch
when I need to 'milk' my connection for all it can give as far as HTTP
goes. You're right, the improvement is temporary. Many times,
namebench will report the primary OpenDNS server address as being the
primary address in it's results as well.

Using Comcast cable, namebench gives me the fastest servers for several days if not weeks to my findings. Yes, but rarely do I see a major slow down. I don't know why I am not seeing the frequent slow downs you guy's are saying you get. I was asking if the OpenDNS addresses change data flow any differently than the ones namebench finds for me.
What changes does OpenDNS make in relation to dataflow?

I agree with Jim.
When I find an old file like that, just to be on the safe side, I duplicate it and change the suffix to either ".txt" or ".rtf". For me they are usually old AOL emails I've saved.

What program were they created by?
If not ".txt" or ".rtf", what suffix do they have?
Have you tried simply opening them in TextEdit?

Under OS X a file will display as a UNIX executable file if it has
lost the identifying metadata to tell your OS what created it and
what program it should be opened by.
So, you say that these are text files. Text files created by which
program?
If you still have the program that created these files, or an updated
version, open them in that program and, if necessary, re-save them.
If you don't have the program that created these files, open them in
the word processor that you currently use, and see if you can save
them there.

I'm scrimping and saving to get my car fixed, first. Its a matter of priorities and don't I need to update my OS first, as someone suggested and said I still can, even on this old eMac? I looked and found a used Lion on Amazon for 45.00. Would that be wise?

I think dragging them might be part of the problem. Try actually "export" if you have that option.
To "export"
Go to iPhoto and click on a thumbnail there. Then from the top menu choose File > Export ... and choose your "Kind" (.jpg) ?, Quality (medium?), Size (full, large, medium, small, custom) and any other option. Click "Export." A new menu will come up which asks the destination - choose the new folder you set up (so you can find it and identify it).
To "import:"
If you have a picture on your desktop or in a folder but NOT in iPhoto, you can open iPhoto and use File > Import to Library. Then a screen will show up to ask which photo. I don't know if your version of iPhoto has this but that's the way I do it.

I'm sorry; it was not my intent to offend you. I think my advice was/is valid. Yahoo webmail address books have been "harvested" by hackers; cross platform webmail clients cannot be expected to integrate seamlessly with platform-specific media cataloging software. Apple's "Mail" client comes installed on all Macs (and is still present on the Install DVD you (hopefully) still have from your original purchase of the machine.
As Jim Saklad pointed out, contemporary Macs are not dramatically more expensive than Windows boxes.
This thread would have far fewer messages had you told us what computer you work on, what version of iPhoto you were using, and that you were using Yahoo Webmail at the outset.

I'm not sure what you're trying to do. If by "import", you mean attach to
an email, enlarging the original images will make no difference to the size
of the thumbnails.

I'm only one OS version (10.5) ahead of you. I wish I could remember what
the differences are.

I think I've got a 10.4 clone somewhere. I could try sending you a copy of
Mail if you want.

That was not my point, which is that webmail is just as good for sending
attachments as Mail: in either case a Finder window opens, I navigate to
the file(s) and select them. Have you tried using Camino or Safari with
Yahoo Mail?
Your version of iPhoto is not the issue.
