Re: [Logic_Cafe] assigning memory

Thanks Kent. 

Here is the hint, although some people disagree with the need to do it :

To turn Dashboard off:
 defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean YES 
To turn Dashboard on:
 defaults write com.apple.dashboard mcx-disabled -boolean NO 
You have to restart the Dock after making either change for it to take 
effect:
 killall Dock 
[robg adds: I'm thinking this might be a pretty popular hint :). I tested the 
commands, and they definitely work. When I ran ps ax | grep Dash with 
Dashboard active, my three open widgets showed up in the process list. After changing 
the defaults, F12 no longer worked, and the same ps command didn't find any 
matches for Dashboard (OK, technically, if found the grep, but that's because 
I'm too lazy to add it as an ignored match). When I re-enabled Dashboard, I was 
somewhat surprised to find that my three open widgets were indeed still 
open.]
