[Qgis-user] .sid in quantum for mac

QGis 1.5 also uses GDAL 1.7 (I think Qgis 1.5 + GDAL 1.6 is a Windows thing only).  The key is that MrSid GDAL plugin.

Theory of the Universe

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarrely inexplicable.  There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
