  • I too (PB G4 500) have "lost my chime" (more than once) and it wasn't an issue of muted sound. I don't know what causes the problem, but zapping PRAM (the key combo stated above) always corrects it.
  • I pronounce GIF with a hard G (like give). Check out this link for an amusing comment on this (sort of) (it's defintely amusing, just sort of on this topic)
  • I've had no trouble loading pages. My only gripe is that every time I open the app, it hangs w/beachball for about 3 seconds. Not a big deal, especially since my home page still loads during that time, but it means I can't stop the page from load…
  • Now, of course, money is definitely a factor here, 'specially for a college student (believe me I know ) But if I could afford it, I woulde definitely get the 17" The obvious reason would be better specs, but some people would argue about the siz…

  • I use the terminal whenever I need to upload 1 or 2 files. For multiple files in multiple directories, I use Interarchy, but it's not great. I'd use RBrowser, but I haven't been able to bring myself to pay for it since I have something that works. W…
  • Yeah, I thought of most of those things. But picturing my mouse floating ever so slightly above my desk is just so cool Oh well...maybe someday...
  • I use 10.2.4 I have Classic installed because I've used Macs for 15 or 16 years and have lots of things that simply don't exist for X. I don't use such programs very much any more, but I've just got to be able to check my Star Trek Encyclopedia ev…

  • Are there really still people using IE? I, personally, have never used it. I always used Netscape, when I switched to OS X about 15 months ago, I did't like netscape, so I used IE for no more than a couple weeks until I found Mozilla. I used that un…
  • Yesterday, I tried playing a DVD-R on my computer that a friend gave me. It was short film he had made. I got some weird error when I tried to use DVD Player to play it, something about configuration or something. I tried using VLC, that kind of wor…
  • unfortunately its not still under warranty, but he brought it in and got it diagnosed. The verdict: dying logic board. Sucks, but whatcha gonna do?
  • I joined December 2001. I was looking for information on the upcmoing iMac (wasn't everybody). There hasn't been a season of hype quite like MWSF02 since then, has there? Anyway, it has been interesting to read some of the history. Hope AI stays…
  • Nobody? Really? I'm disappointed
  • If you can get your hands on a copy of Scott Kelby's book,
  • In Boston, would MW be at Hynes? I've never been to Javitz, but the Hynes convention center is very nice. Also, (kind of OT) if any of y'all find yourself at Hynes CC for any reason, eat at Marché. It is a really amazing restaurant in the mall attec…
  • Thanks for that second link. The first one's working now, so who knows what was up with that. That's pretty funny.
  • Seen what? Every time I click the link, all I get is a blank page.
  • Ok, so it's a hoax. What's so funny? Either I missed something, or I just don't find it that funny. Does the application do anything? (as in anything at all, as advertised or completely otherwise) or is it just those pretty sliders and buttons?
