macsupport.ca — To select your Mac boot drive with the Apple Remote simply press the remotes ?Menu? button just after you hear the startup chime of your Mac. Then when the startup drive selections appear use the ?forward/backward? buttons to select the corresponding volume and then press ?play? to boot from that volume.

Too bad you can't turn the computer on with the remote too.

(a) Because not many people in the world know about it and it is nice to know that the remote has some control over how the computer boots.(b) Read (a) again.You're fussy because your G5 doesn't have a remote. Dugg.

I'd like to use the remote to change between slides when the pictures screensaver in on...

He probably doesn't have dual boot either.

I realize that people are digging it and all, but personally I just don't see why something as small as this is reaching the front page. Yes, I realize not many people know this, but it's not like they're gaining a useful function of their computer when they learn about it.It seems pretty stupid and pointless to me. Guess it's just me that feels that way, then.*Shrug*
