  • I did try VLC. Ok, I figured out how I did it the other day. I just changed my screen resolution to 1024x768 stretched. It works great that way. Thanks for the help!

  • Quote: Originally posted by tling But is there a downside in getting Panther first, and then upgrading it Tiger? Sure. This is not a problem. As I said, you'll have to buy Tiger, but you can upgrade without problem. I'll be upgrading my P…
    in Mac OS upgrade policy? Comment by ibook911 March 2005
  • Quote: Originally posted by tling Thanks for all your replies! My another questions is, do you think it's worth getting a PowerBook now with Panther installed, and then get the Tiger upgrade when it's released later next month? Therefore, I ca…

  • Yeah, you're probably looking at $69. That is what they charge for Panther. You never know though, for they might raise the student price on Tiger. We know the retail price for Tiger, but not the educational price yet. You know what I was thin…
    in TS: Tiger for sure in early April Comment by ibook911 March 2005
  • Just wait for quarter 2 results in April. The Poewrbook will have sold more than the iBook, since the Pbook was updated. The iBook started beating Powerbook in the past two corners, for the Powerbook had not been updated, and the last quarter was…

  • Let me count the debt... $25 on CC1 $260 on CC2 (stupid NFL playoffs) $1190 on CC3 However, the $1190 is at zero percent until next January. Its the remaining balance on my powerbook and cinema display, so I don't mind that debt too much. …

    in PowerBook Pitting/Corrosion??? Comment by ibook911 March 2005
  • I'm sure you'll be able to run the newest operating system on the current Powerbooks in three years. After all, Apple will still be selling G4s, for quite some time to come.
    in G4 question? Comment by ibook911 March 2005
  • I use mine with exteranl display, keyboard, and mouse a lot, so I'm hoping that keeps mine looking nice. Furthermore, when I do use the Powerbook directly, I wipe the keyboard and rests afterwards. haha.
