More Mac Tips

I'm sure you've had the issue where you can't get the volume just quite right. The perfect setting lies right between two little white blocks on your Mac. Well if you have Leopard there's a solution. Hold Option + Shift and hit the volume buttons. This will adjust volume by quarter step increments and help you fine tune your volume. Tiger users will have to use the volume slider on the menu bar, sorry.

Another issue I had with my Mac was the lack of an app to replace Paint from my old Windows days. Not too long ago I found a great app that is a great Paint alternative. It's called Paintbrush. It's simple, lightweight and does everything that Paint does. Check it out at http://paintbrush.sourceforge.net/
