What kind of screen upgrades are we talking about here? Do you mean those silly XBrite screens that have so much glare you could blind people 20' away? Or higher resolutions? Dear God people, if the resolution got any higher, I think I would …

Sorry, I misread your post. I would not recommend opening up your 12" ibook unless you have some experience and the proper tools to do so without breaking the frame. I have good experience with the Powerbooks but the 12" iBook really was very diff…

Matsu: I would be first in line to get one but I fear the cost for creating your marvelous idea would be prohibitive for the average consumer. Quote: Originally posted by Matsu I hope I didn't imply that the D70 is huge, although it is no…

Sorry, the D70 is a very small dSLR to me (ok, I'm biased coming from the D2h) and it even has the option of adding a grip, if I'm not mistaken. Weight really isn't an issue if you want to take good pictures. I use a 28mm prime for light duty an…

I'm a photo-junkie and I currently use a Nikon D2h. I say, get the D70 and don't look back. It seems, unfortunately, that Canon and Nikon are the only major players. Of course, there is Fuji and Kodak but they use the Nikon F-mount. The D70 ha…

One of the front-page headlines on today's LA TIMES was that people are getting frustrated with their computing experience (ie. Windows and DELL). I think the MacMini is PERFECT. All this discussion about why it doesn't have a keyboard/monitor i…

I don't know about the Feds but I do know that some local municipalities are requesting Utility Users Taxes from most of the 'internet' phone companies - Vonage is one of the largest. I haven't seen any UUT taxes yet on my phone bill but I antici…

1) The phone adapter is basically a Linksys Phone modem; it has two built-in phone ports that connect to any phone and a couple of ethernet ports for connecting to your router and/or other computers 2) I get a dial tone after about three beeps.…

Quote: Originally posted by Relic Wow, good for you on calling me on it. You?re absolutely right; but just towards their consumer products. I just think they?re cheaply made and are not worth the exuberant price Apple is demanding for them. L…

I'm on the $25 per month UNLIMITED plan. The Linksys Telephone Router was FREE and it accepts a connection to any 'regular' phone. The quality is 85% of a regular landline. Voices are heard clearly except for some annoying echoing, and other mi…

Check out this little item: - ability to RECORD DVDs and TV shows bypassing copy protection - 7 inch widescreen LCD Not a bad little item but a bit overpriced... http://www.tightsystems.com/yt3egs87...b.htm#position

I think people are forgetting that more people go to BestBuy to buy electronics and computers than to apple.com. True they probably won't sell too many dual G5s but the exposure of these top-end products to the masses will help them gain some marke…

Try using Microsoft's BT mouse; it works OK except that it guzzles batteries (around once every month and a half). Quote: Originally posted by mehdi I've ordered an iMac G5 with the Bluetooth wireless mouse and keyboard. According to…

The 3" lcd screen real estate DOES make a big difference, especially if you're doing eye-intensive work. The HD upgradeability is much easier on a powerbook, the RAM is faster (DDR 333 vs. 266), it comes with BT, a lighted keyboard, gigabyte supp…

haven't noticed ANY heat issues although it does get a little hot underneath the hard drive but that could be because it's a 7200 RPM HD (;^) - the bottom is a little 'warped;' the notebook doesn't sit flat on a hard surface but I'm' told this wi…

If you're not a big music listener, why get an iPod in the first place? Save your money and get a 60 GB 7200 RPM HD (DELL.com Small Business has them for around $130 now) to swap out the stock internal HD drive and then get an external HD casing (c…

The Motion Picture Industry has decided that copying DVDs in any form or matter is basically illegal - EVEN IF YOU OWN THE DVD. So if your 4-year old scratches up your "Finding Nemo" DVD, you are 'forced' to buy another new one. I, for one, find t…

This is probably not a real issue for most people, but I found the iBooks to be impossible to upgrade by myself as the plastic casing feels like it's literally glued together. I had to go to an Apple Tech to upgrade my HD and he charged me $100. M…

I'm not sure if paying $299 for this bose system is for 'casual listening.' My point was exactly that: to listen to a good set of monitors so you can judge what TRUE good sound, sounds like. You'll find that in general, bose products are subp…

Sorry, not to sound elitist, but I HATE bose products. I listened to their top-of-the-line direct-reflecting speakers some time ago and the sound was so horrible I couldn't believe they were selling them for over $1,200. People should real…
