I have a crazy mean one. If you do “sudo chflags hidden /*” (without quotes) it will hide everything in finder. To undo it, just use unhidden instead of hidden.

Use terminal. Don’t be fooled, Darwin OS has some nasty tricks up his sleeves. Ssh is my favorite. log on, remotely control a co-workers computer, then log off. all without them knowing.

@Carl
You must go into your universal access, under Display you can choose which you want. to enable it via keyboard I believe you must have the option “Enable access fir assistive devices”

the color inversion is working for me. fyi, that is an EIGHT (8) not a ‘B’ incase that is why you couldn’t get it to work. I’m also on a uMBP under 10.6.3

Humm, the color inversion shortcut doesn’t seem to work for me. 10.6.3 on a uMPB.
