As you can see here on slashdot and here on osnews (and of course here) the future of NetBSD is questionable right now. What is going on?
(PS I finally got something accepted on slashdot haha and osnews! I’m special now lol)

I’m experimenting with Spam Sieve to see if it can replace Mail.app’s dumb junk mail filters. I trained Mail’s junk filters for about a year and I still got spam last week. Obvious spam at that. It’s just silly. Thunderbird for Mac has great junk filters but no direct tie-in to the Addressbook. SpamSieve adds better bayesian filtering to Mail and entourage (but please don’t use entourage – it’s a tech support nightmare. thx.) I’ve been training it for a couple days now and it’s doing well. I’ll post again in a few days to note the progress. At the end of my 30 day trial I’ll definitely be posting whether or not I feel that it’s worth the $25 that the devs are asking for it 
Stay tuned!
THIS JUST IN – Trial ended and I decided to go buy it. read on! View full article »
I had attempted to get my finances in order, but this time I’m going to stick to it I swear… thanks to gnucash. If you haven’t heard of it by now, then where have you been? It’s awesome! I never used quicken or Microsoft Money, or iCash, but this program really has made it so easy to get a good picture of my financial state that I would never want to use another. I wanted to try the latest version and, as you may know, I’m running Tiger on my powerbook G4. I found some helpful directions for intel macs and I’m happy to report that following the tips I found there I got gnucash working great even though I’m using a G4. Once I have a better understanding of everything I’m doing (I’m winging it so far but it’s working!) I’ll post some info to help you get started. But hey don’t wait for me – if you’re looking for some good accounting software check it out. Did I mention it supports .qxf files? Oh and it’s FREEEEE
