  • Mmm G5... I wonder just how long it will take for those beasts to come out... I dun wanna change the topic of this thread, but Apple really does need some competative edge again...

  • You're using the term Airport too loosely. I assumed you were talking about the Airport card inside the laptop you will buy, but I was wrong. In other words you need; Airpot Base Station (or a generic wireless router) hooked up to the cable modem…

  • I've come across this multiple times, at multiple households. It's a real pain in the a** when you don't know which of your friends to call to log you out... I agree about the master log off command, it really is necessary with such a system.

  • Yuppp. Typically you will need a wirless router or access point. There is a way to host it from another pc but then that would needa wireless card, its call building a wirless bridge or something to that effect. What is you're exact setup right now…

  • Tough cookie to crack. No new development since last discussion on this as to my knowledge, huge thread about this couple weeks back. Anyway, I think the styling points toward a major revision and new pricing, but apple is taking their time with it,…
    in ETA new displays? Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • Well the displays are way over-due for a revamp, but I really don't see where they would go. The display thing has been covered to death in another thread just recently, do a simple search if ya want more info. New updates; new prices, if it happens…
    in Need some buying advice! Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • Yeah, after thinking about it both of you are right. Its not like I do need anything in those new powerbooks and I would end up losing too much on ebay to justify this whole thing to myself. Thanks for the advice.
    in Ebaying PB Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • It looks generally awkward. Not something that you could use with one hand without alot of manuvering I feel. And there is still something buggy with the screen. Also I agree with the comment about properly integrating a numeric pad, because it woul…
    in The Apple GSM phone Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • In light of yesterday's G4 Revamp, I can positivley say this will not happen for 8-10 months... And if anyone can prove me wrong, please do so.
    in G5 Powerbooks, coming soon? Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • Didn't do it last week because I was in Europe for about 10 days, thus being fully disconnected from society it was very hard to keep up with the news, much less rumors about new powerbooks being released.. from your tone of writing I assume this is…

  • Well, I was thinking about the mouse and keyboard aspect more so than the Tv, would bluetooth reach from you're tv, into other room and control the mac from there? Dunno how far of a stretch this is...

  • Too bad I don't have toast, I'm trying to burn a disc of an image I have, but I don't know how to do it in the finder...
    in How do I backup panther CDs? Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • The mouse might do this after extended periods of sleep, just slide the power slider on the bottom from "on" to "off" back to "on", this should fix it every time. I know it's a neuisance, but it keeps the batteries stronger longer, so it's all for t…

  • Quote: Originally posted by Dr. John Zoidberg When my PowerBook was asleep today, it woke up from sleep by itself. Could it be that someone may be trying to access my computer through the ethernet port? I have "wake for Ethernet network access" u…
    in Wake from sleep by itself Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • Do you guys remember back in the day when TechTV went by ZDTV, this was at least 5-6 years ago... That's when I first got addicted, but after the transition to TechTV, it never seemed the same...
    in Bummer: Leo Laporte Leaves Tech TV Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • Ammonia... Hmm that just seems like a bad idea in general, who wants their powerbook smelling like that? LOL
    in Cleaning yr Aluminium Powerbook Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • The alcohol is the best idea. It drys nearly instantly... water sounds like such primitive idea, and it's WATER! Hasn't been any need to clean my PB yet, if anything I need to figure out how to buff a scratch out on the bottom, from a small rock…
    in Cleaning yr Aluminium Powerbook Comment by sh0ewax April 2004
  • Well I still touch type, just only using like 2-4 of my fingers instead of all 10.
    in Adjusting the brightness on the backlit keyboard Comment by sh0ewax March 2004
  • I'm not sure if the iMac has a power management section under system settings; maybe it's named something else. Either way, I know that the powerbook has an option to just "put display to sleep" but the actually system won't sleep. If there isn't su…
    in iTunes Sharing: Screensaver? Comment by sh0ewax March 2004
  • I know what you mean, I type exactly like you Wickes. My problem is that sometimes I fall into a trend of just using my index fingers and moving the entire hand across the keyboard instead of just using a different finger. Using all your fingers is …
