From john.convey at sci-do.co.uk Sat Oct 7 11:47:48 2006 From: john.convey at sci-do.co.uk (Sci-do Communications) Date: Sat, 07 Oct 2006 12:47:48 +0100 Subject: [4DLUG] Urgent: 4D 2004 and Mac OS X 10.4.8 on the Mac Intel Platform Message-ID: Hi Luggers, (4d London user group -ers) Here is a message picked up Posted to the international conference "that we are now recommending that Mac OS X 10.4.8 on Intel be avoided for any 4D-based applications" John Sci-do communications Subject: [ANN] Urgent: 4D 2004 and Mac OS X 10.4.8 on the Mac Intel Platform From: "4D News" <4dListAdmin at 4d.com> Date: Fri, 6 Oct 2006 10:48:24 -0700 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 4D News October 6, 2006 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Summary: [1] Urgent: 4D 2004 and Mac OS X 10.4.8 on the Mac Intel Platform ------------------------------------------------------------------- [1] Urgent: 4D 2004 and Mac OS X 10.4.8 on the Mac Intel Platform -------------------------------------------------------------------- We have verified a serious issue with the latest revision of Mac OS X 10.4.8 on Intel-based machines. Apple has confirmed a bug that causes rounding and truncation issues in 4D-based applications. This bug affects both Rosetta and Universal Binary applications. Apple has informed us that this bug should be fixed in the next revision of the Mac OS X 10.4. However, in the meantime, we are aware of the severity of this bug, such that we are now recommending that Mac OS X 10.4.8 on Intel be avoided for any 4D-based applications. We are committed to supporting the 4D 2004 product line on Mac Intel via Rosetta and as such confirm that we are actively pursuing a workaround for this issue. As you know, 4D is a large and powerful application, so we do require some time to ensure that we identify every issue caused by this Apple bug. We will add this workaround to the next revision of the 4D 2004.5 beta. We ask for your help and support in ensuring that our workaround does remove any manifestations of this bug by comprehensively testing your applications with this beta release. We currently plan to release this as a public beta to ensure that we provide as much exposure as possible. This will ensure our workaround is effective in 100% of the cases. In addition, we are accelerating the release cycle of 4D 2004.5 to get this version into your hands as soon as possible.

And using a decent FREE virus checker on XP Pro (like Avast! Home Edition) means you don?t get any viruses... well, at least I don't have any and haven't had any. The BBC's Honeypot PC was set up without any protection at all, so no wonder it got done over so much. Surely the best thing about the new Intel Macs is that you can run Windows and stuff on them too ;-) At least with XP, you can switch off all the ridiculous animation with a few clicks. The mac is only fun using from the command line these days. Plus, you can get a 64 bit version of XP. Apple have been using 64 bit chips in their machines for ages, so why is that Cheetah is going to be the first proper 64 bit OS?

One tactic would be to call the insurance companies directly. Another would be to ask your broker if some kind of exclusion (like excluding foreign E&O cover) would make it easier to write the policy.
