I suggest installing OS X on your external drive. Then see if the problems persist.

Some info about the computer setup from the original poster would help this thread immensely. But as somebody else said, this sounds suspiciously like a hard-drive fault, not a software fault (well, you could blame the software for not handling …

Quote: Originally posted by Power Apple Unfortunately I don't expect the next Power Mac revision to be more than a slightly incremental upgrade (in the same way as the PowerBooks): slightly higher clock speed (maybe up to 2.8 Ghz), more RAM on th…

Quote: Originally posted by Power Apple I too am waiting. Will be buying a dual as soon as the Power Macs are upgraded.... it feels like a long wait...*sigh* I agree. I wanted to buy a dual G5 when they were released in 2003, but I wasn't en…

OmniWeb also syncs bookmarks with .mac.

OmniWeb has a ton more features, useful features, than Safari. That should be easily demonstrable.

OmniWeb beats all.

Quote: Originally posted by david_oc At least if they settled for a cycle, people could make decisions to buy in January instead of endlessly waiting for next Tuesday I agree about that though. :-)

It truly sucks if they're going to settle for one year product cycles, like they have with the G5 so far. I expect the new models (whenever they come) will feature PCIe, faster processors, hopefully with an updated bus topology (IMC!) and bigger …

I'm buying one when I get a G5 to put it in. Which won't be too long, I hope. Need ... new ... powermacs.

Yes. There's no problem. :-)

Yes. Starcraft works great on OS X. You only get TCP/IP multiplayer games, though, but I don't think anyone is using IPX anymore. :-)

I, for one, agree with the general consensus about the eMac. I don't see what's positive about it, except its ability to absorb a fair amount of physical damage. It's huge, heavy, slow in all respects for a 2004 desktop computer, isn't expandable…
