Language. Interesting error. Nice solution by Carolyn. I have never seen this personally. I would have suspected a corrupted font for the designers that would have an issue with this.

Might be a corrupted preference file  (.plist)

Go to ~/Library/Preferences

Move the com.apple.systempreferences.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.

Restart your Mac.

In \. This would be very irrating for photographers or anyone who deals with lots of photos. Good work Dreaz!

In case anyone else has noticed this issue, I found the answer. It’s a Lion issue, so delete the following plist:

~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Preview/

I hadn’t considered this before, but it is a possibility. I wrote this comment below in the article. This could actually save money.

This is a helpful analysis. The rental prices for most macs are too high to be worth it for most companies, so I doubt that will happen. However I do see the benefit of using things like iMacs and Thunderbolt setups, instead of the traditional Mac Pro’s and built-in storage for certain users.

I think the key in this is how reliable those External HD are. If they are more reliable than past RAID’s and external storage, I can see this happening.
