QotD: Front Row
Posted March 5th, 2006 @ 02:10pm by Erik J. Barzeski
Question: Have you hacked or installed Front Row on your computer? Do you wish Apple would allow it installation on all computers?
My Answer: I have, though that was Front Row 1.0.1. I don't want to install 1.2.1 (directions here) because it disables your menu bar, and the work-around, though simple, is too much of a bother for me to care. I do wish Apple would release and support Front Row for all Macs, though my G5 couldn't use the remote nor would I buy something so it could, so I understand why Apple likely hasn't released it to the general masses (yet?).

If i could buy the remote and the software, for a really decent price (considering how useful it really isn't) i think i'd do it.
I installed the hack, but it's slow on my dual 867 g4
