Install Leopard on older, unsupported G4 Macs #
Leopard will not install on a G4 with anything less than an 867MHz processor. Fortunately, suneohair has figured out how to get around this artificial limitation. On a related note, you can save some CPU cycles (and get back some usable screen space) by replacing the 3D Dock with the good ol' 2D version:
$ defaults write com.apple.dock no-glass -boolean YES; killall Dock

UPDATE: Install and Optimize Leopard on Unsupported Macs

Send To SFTP with WinSCP #
There is no dearth of Send To FTP apps, but I couldn't find one with SFTP support. On a whim, I revisited WinSCP (which has come in handy before), and sure enough it offers a context menu option. Combined with AxCrypt (for quick and easy file encryption), it takes just a few seconds to begin securely uploading and storing sensitive data offsite. WinSCP and AxCrypt are both free and open source.

UPDATE: Bjorn kindly informs us that RightLoad offers experimental SFTP support as well (though it "may be slow or not work at all.")

History #
"History... is, indeed, little more than the register of the crimes, follies, and misfortunes of mankind." - Edward Gibbon

"There is no history of mankind, there are only many histories of all kinds of aspects of human life. And one of these is the history of political power. This is elevated into the history of the world." - Karl Popper

"Happy the people whose annals are blank in history books!" - Thomas Carlyle
