This Macworld article describes a hidden setting that lets you scale the ui elements of the the whole system or just a single application. For example, this allows the iTunes mini controller take up less screen real estate.

I mentioned before how I was having problems syncing content to my iPod. It appears that restoring to factory settings has fixed the problem. I will keep my eye on this, and if it happens again, I may take it to the Apple Store.

About a week ago, the LifeType team released beta 1 of LifeType. There have been a lot of improvements since the 1.0 release, including disk-based caching and reduced memory usage. This version has worked very well for me.
This morning I started to get this error message when trying to sync music to my iPod
I assume that there is a bad sector on the drive. I am attempting to restore to factory, and am hoping that the bad blocks will be marked.

I saw this post mentioning the Xploder HDTV PS2 Upgrade. Supposedly, this will allow you to play your PS2 games in Enhanced Definition (480p), HD (720p or 1080i) or VGA. I am not sure this will work. The post mentions that it is a device, and comes with component cables. Also it sounds like there is some software that needs to be installed on the PS2. This makes it seem that this will connect to the expansion port of the PS2 (This implies that it will only work with the original PS2), and that there are component cables and a VGA port on the back.
I don't imagine that this will work that well. The PS2 and the games written for it can only output up to 480p. So essentially this is is just a line doubler. And I don't think that the quality of this line doubler would be better than the line doubler built into most HDTVs.
