exe file on my Mac

hoovarmin | Oct 1 2007

I recently downloaded some audio files from a website. They are apparently zip files and show up on my Mac as .exe files that can't be opened without a Windows operating system. I have Vista installed with Parallel Desktop, but I don't know how to access the files from the Mac desktop in Vista to convert them and then get them back over to the Mac. If anyone could help I would sure appreciate it.

As it turns out, my Mac didn't have stuffit installed and I downloaded it just moments ago. Worked like a charm. Thanks so much!

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
