Will that cause any problems? I read in a Macworld article that re-naming your Macintosh HD could cause problems down the road...

Actually, I meant the application icons. For Mail, iChat, etc. I already have the system icons (they rock).

Renaming is no problem, but special charakters in hd name like the apple or even a space can cause troubles

Then why is it called "Macintosh HD" (note the space) by default?

I think he meant 'space' as the only entry so no name appears.....

Customized screenshot pics.

WTF is your problem? Seriously. In every other reply you make on this board you're critisising someone and being rude in general.
This is how I like my desktop. If you're into something else, it's all good, but what does it matter to you how I have mine set up?

Oh, and this little 'outburst' wasn't just for this post. You been acting like an ass in several other threads I've read here.
And you won't find anyone in Sweden named Wolfgang, unless he's like a German immigrant or something

I'm wondering... Is benign=catsank?
catsank vanished at some point from the MacNN forums..
Benign appeared recently and their overall "posting style" look a lot alike.. eventhough catsank could be very funny sometimes..
just wondering..

I was wondering the same thing a couple days ago I'm now pretty sure they are one and the same. Didn't benign post that Titanic sinking picture in one of the threads some time ago? I remember catsank using that way earlier. And I was starting to hope that these forums can go on without another smart ass ...

There *IS* an ignore feature on this board. Use it rather than add to the melodrama by replying. (as I have just done)

I guess, but wouldn't it be better if everyone could just show respect towards each other?
Sorry for taking it up in this thread anyway, I realize it's for desktop postings and not bickering, I just got really annoyed

Even Apple isnīt perfect
There was a iTunes version which deleted the entire Home folder if the hd name had a space in it,
I think itīs because different apps uses different methodes to find/write files, for example the terminal uses / for a path, this means / wouldnīt be allowed in file names but the finder uses : like every app should do on the mac in os 9 and below every app did that but since os x is a unix system which always uses / you get some troubles, and if a file name contains a space you have to write a \ in the terminal so it knows this is not an extra command but still the file name.

I will not give you a 100% gurantee that everything is correct but I will give a 99% one

I hope you understand everything because english isnīt my first language.
