  • I have a G4 Cube @ 450Mhz with a 17in Apple studio display. Awesome machine. We got it three years ago to replace my 6400, that still runs really well. My brother's fiancée gave us a 300mhz clamshell iBook G3 (the computer I'm on now) when she go…

  • ISTP Every last word of it is me. Guess it works out well, being a fire fighter and all.
  • Just to be safe...check the SMART status of your disk. Go into Terminal, type in: Code: diskutil info disk0 Check the line that says "SMART Status:" If it says anything but "verified" after that, you've got problems. If it says verified,…
  • I don't think it's a low disk space problem. I'm on an iBook G3 @ 300 mhz with a 6 gig hd in it running OS X. I've only got 128mb of ram, and the HD is sub 200mb right now. I've got an uptime of 48 days right now. So I'm thinking it's not a low …

  • That's one sweet machine! Congrats on the new purchase. I hope she makes you real happy, I know she won't disappoint. Again, congrats
  • I've had similar experiences here. I called my ISP a few weeks ago because my cable modem wasn't receiving a signal (I had checked and double checked everything on my end, it was the ISP's problem). I called and went through menu hell, and final…
  • Phish Waste I love Phish.
  • Naw, no phone call to Steve. I think the both of you just need to delete your caches. That might just fix that little problem right up. If not, try some of the other basic maintenance tips and tricks in that link.
  • I think the general idea here is that for a long time Macs were behind in the Mhz race, and now that they are catching up, Intel and friends are running scared. Changing their Mhz ratings to "horse power" or whatever crap they are doing. I'm prett…
  • I know a desktop machine will be better in display quality than a PB. But probably not all that much. It's just backlight though. I've checked out the PBs on many occasions, and the screens are plenty bright and extremely good. But a desktop wil…

  • I like Murbot's *other* PB thread better Grab some chips and dip and I might tell you about it but probably not.
  • I looked at the title of this thread...and I immediately thought, that's gotta be either a troll, or \\/\\/ickes. And I was correct, I can understand why you love them, if they net that kind of cash for you. What I wouldn't do for nearly $200 …
  • If it's your life, than $85 isn't a lot of money. I know it seems like a ton, being a student myself, but I know I would gladly fork over that kind of cash for a data recovery service if my HDD went south. This is just another strong case for back…
