If you are interested in an image editor for Mac OS X, there is a 72 - hour promo on Pixelmator at 29$ (51 % off, retail 59$) at MacUpdate Promo (18 hours left).

I just bought it as I cannot afford a legal PS version.

I use Safari 5.0.2 on my iMac and Macbook Pro. I use it because it just do what a browser should do and with Gimmer Blocker and ClickToFlash I'm not annoyed by advertisings and flash animations.

I've also Camino and Firefox installed but rarely use them.

I have also 2 GNU/Linux distribs and Windows 7 as virtual machines in Parallels and with these Os's I use Firefox. I'll give a try to Maxthon.

Day to day, if you're unsure, best to not do it and stick with da nod with a smile.

That's how I understand politeness; the nod with a smile. In the moobaan we don't wai much among thai residents and I; only once when I come back from Europe after 2 months away. Then we stick with the usual "sawasdee krap", the nod and a smile. I think a friendly and respectful attitude is the best way to be welcomed here.

I usually just give a nod to people, at the immigration, in bars or restaurant and everywhere else. I'm not thai and I do like at home.

They wai and I nod. Never met anybody who felt offensed so far, I assume everything is fine like this.

I make visa run in Mae Sai for five years now (non immigrant "O" multiple) and they always accepted my 500 bahts banknote. Head straight to the burmese immigration, give them 500 bahts , get stamps and return to the thai immigration.

As simple as to buy a Chang at the 7eleven.
