  • WOW! I wished I would have seen this earlier.  I upgraded my wife's iPad 2 and it is a disaster.  So slow it's unusable.  A real shame.  And the worst is I tried the downgrade and apparently Apple has signed it out and I get the "this device is not …

  • I've tried to follow this thread about the advantages of Snow Leopard and they appear to be worth it. But what I'd really like to know is if ever a 4GB memory stick for the current iMac (PC-6400 DDR2 ram) is offered, would the existing hardware + S…
    in Road to Mac OS X Snow Leopard: 64-bit to the Kernel Comment by ruidoso48 October 2008
  • Well I just pulled the trigger on a CyberPower 685AVR for $72 w/free shipping at Amazon. Good reviews and what sold me was the fact that when connected via USB to a Mac, it is managed by system software. I have an APC brand at work and would have …
    in Buying advice for UPS for iMac Comment by ruidoso48 July 2008
  • Thanks to all, I think the consensus is that a UPS is a good investment. In the NW where I used to live the power didn't even flicker in 10 years (reliable hydro-electric). Here in FL (lightening capital of the US) power flickers and shut downs ar…

  • Didn't mean to infer Apple would drop FW entirely and certainly not for DV periferals that work so well with their iLife and premium software programs. It just seems that the iSight camera is going to be a good test case to see how well Apple will c…
    in Will Apple support the stand alone isight in new ProMac Towers? Comment by ruidoso48 June 2006
  • Since the new fixed isights and laptops use the USB bus and since Leopard looms and firewire booting is no longer supported in the new stuff, I don't see it as much of a stretch that Apple might abandon FW since it appears the new closeness with Int…

  • Ok I bought a G5 refurb back in April - wondering if I can get Apple Care here in Florida once it is allowed or will it not be retroactive? They say the wording is different.

  • Thanks for the replies. I'm going to leave well enough alone and maybe toward the end of the Tiger upgrade cycle do a clean install and see if it doesn't just disappear.
    in Help decipher error? message in system log file Comment by ruidoso48 September 2005
  • I have to agree with the majority, the most seriously lacking feature is video upgradeability or a BTO option: and I don't mind paying extra for it. The 20" looks awesome but that stock card seems pretty puny. The one game/entertaininment that I …
