[QUOTE="Angelina, post: 58461"] Here at my place of employment we have a G4 acting as a Mac Server for our Graphics Dept. We have 3 other computers hooked to this "Server". All 3 computer including the "server" are running Panther oporation system. Questions: 1- Our Mac Tech man says that we should all work off the "server". He claims that it is the best and fastest way to work and keeps our computers from getting fragmented. I disagree, however I am not a Mac Tech person. Could someone please clairify? 2-Does anyone recogmend Disk Warrior for fixing macs? My understanding is that Disk Warrior creates a whole new directory making the directory new again where as Tech Tool and Norton Utilities only patch up the directory. Which is true? My Mac Tech says we have no use for it. 3-Is it possible that the reason why my machine was running slow, is because my computer could not find it's desk top picture? This seem bazzar to me, but then again I am not a Mac Tech. What do you guys think? 4-Please correct me if I am wrong but isn't OS X (Jaguar and Panther) are all based on Unix? My Tech Guy says the OS X is it's own operating system. Thanks for eveyones help in advance and a have a great day, [/QUOTE]
