  • The symbol to left of the hole between USB and audio looks though it's quite blurry like the one of the DVI-port on my MBP. So it's a display port, but which ? No current one fits the size...
  • I also can't find any possible display connector that fits into this hole: VGA, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, Micro-DVI are all wider and some are higher, mini-DVI is higher. Only mini-VGA could fit, but where's the point in an analog-only port ? Displ…
  • It still works this simple way, even in Leopard: Just use "Get Info" on the folder, klick on the icon in the Info window and hit the backspace key.
  • Good results on my trusty TiBook G4 400 MHz: 1:57 hrs. with energy saver set to "Maximum Performance", screen brightness at maximum, airport active and processor usage at 100% all the time ! And it was absolutely accurate with the remaining ti…

  • I just got an email from the apple store: --- From: applestore.de@euro.apple.com Date: Fri, 19 Sep 2003 03:38:22 -0700 (PDT) Sehr geehrte Kundin, sehr geehrter Kunde, mit diesem Schreiben erhalten Sie die Versandbestätigung zu Ihrer …
  • Great ! I love it ! Hopefully this makes the waiting for my Dual G5 more bearable... -> alligator: I was also confused at first. This file replaces the iMac G4 picture in the toolbar of the Finder windows with a nicely done sidev…
  • I already moved the shelf on the right side of my desk fully up to the edge of the desk and put my G4 (from the floor) onto it. By rotating it 90 degrees clockwise (front facing left) I have enough space between the shelf and the slanted ceiling ev…
  • Quote: Originally posted by T'hain Esh Kelch When you turn them down to 1.3 Ghz, does the bus also go down to 650 Mhz, or does it stay at 800/900/1000 Mhz? The processor/bus ratio is a locked factor, in case of the G5s it's 4:1. Because it's …
  • Quote: Originally posted by halcyon ryaxnb, you should look at the CPU utilisation rate when you move windows. Not a pretty sight. Yes, it's fast on a 900Mhz CPU, but it should not take 80% + of the CPU time like it does. I can even c…
  • Quote: Originally posted by johnjosephbachir DVI carries an analog signal? Every video card that sends out DVI is required to also render a analog signal? I guess that would explain why DVI->VGA adapters are so cheap and don't need extra power…
  • quote of ryanxb: "5. Back on subject, perhaps it's because of the fact that they use stock vid-cards AFAIK. Apple probaby doesn't have much influence over NVIDIA or ATI. " All Apple Display Cards that have an ADC port are OEM cards especially m…
  • -> msantti: You are definately crazy, aren't you ??? Do you intend to bring it back to the shop after testing it, when you find out it would be better to get the dual ? Is that possible in the US ? Here in Europe we've got a new consume…
  • Quote: Originally posted by msantti That is the exact reason we don't want to give them a chance. What makes some people more special than others? My order totals a phat $3600 after BTO options,tax, and shipping. And that's why YOU should …
  • Hi ! It's the stock configuration. I'll add more RAM later when prices drop a bit. I ordered by phone at the german Apple Store, because the online order the evening before failed. But I didn't get a final order confirmation yet, only an "or…
  • I ordered my Dual 2GHz last thursday (21 Aug) and the order status page shows "being assembled" highlighted since today, but no shipping date yet ! Does it need to reach "being prepped for shipping" to show the shipping date or when does that sho…
  • I found some info on that card here: http://www.btinternet.com/~sgi320/PCI.htm And a general rule on 5V vs. 3.3V PCI cards here: http://www.btinternet.com/~sgi320/PCI_type.htm Hope this helps ! Alex.
