  • The best thing about this news article is seeing how bitter everyone is about a whole bunch of people who got free iPod shuffles, and they didn't. That's humanity after all! I would be shocked if we didn't see those people clearly unpleasant. …
  • Hi, Yeah I've been reading up on this and have actually made contact with the developer of the firmware patch for old PowerBook drives (UJ-815/6 - the new iMacs and newer PowerBooks contain UJ-825). Unfortunately his hands are tied at the moment …
  • Ahh I see! Thanks for the info mate. I'll set it to one of the regions. So do you have any big troubles playing stuff in VLC? It seems like a pretty solid program. If you have your DVD player set to a certain region, and you go into System Pre…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Placebo Yes, VLC rocks. Download it here. Hey, thanks for the replies guys. I understand it a bit more now. I have refused to set the region to any at the moment - I just canceled the dialog box and told OS …
  • Ahh, I see. Thanks for the info guys. Built To Order. Makes sense now. But really, does it mean you better buy it or you'll end up with a crappy winbox?
  • We really just have to wait for the Xeon 3.06 dual tests before we conclude. Right now it's safe to say the Dual 2.5Ghz G5 is the fastest thing around. Hopefully that won't change!
  • Hey crazychester, great to see someone in the same boat as me! But I am totally confused yet again. Looking at the Mac Center website, it says Quote: G5 1.8/2 GHz PC3200 2GB/1GB/512MB $995/$395/$220 I'm assuming that's what goes in an…
  • Ahh, I see. I think a 512 is in order at minimum then (I never really had any plans on getting a 256) and perhaps 1GB across the two slots (1DIMM is crazily expensive as I'm sure you're all aware. ) On that note, when/if it does come time to upgr…
  • Ah, okay well at least I have some confirmation on this. Thanks! I obviously require an upgrade to at least 512, I was hoping (and previously thinking I was getting) 768. So I could only get 768 by getting my memory elsewhere, and even then I wou…
  • Great! Thanks for the info. Okay, so out of the box, the iMac G5s support video-out but might require that cable? And TV-in isn't supported unless you want an extra hardware component? That's fine, that's what I expected. The link below might hel…
  • Ok... I found out how to save that movie, so don't bother replying to that particular part of the question! For anyone else interested, you just search for the movie (*.mov) in your C:, or specifically your Temporary Internet Files, then open …
  • ksporry, As the people here have mentioned, there is really a lot to be 'unlearnt' when switching from Mac OS X. Much of the crap Windows has put us through is non existent in OS X. I don't own a Mac just yet, but from what I've heard OS X about …
  • Wow! Guys, thanks a lot for the info and opinions. That's great. I think Towel hit the nail on the head when he said VPC is really just best at getting me across the little mountain, so thanks for bringing this glaringly obvious piece of info…
  • Hi, Great! Thanks a lot for the reply. Yeah, I actually just came across Virtual PC not long ago. It looks great. The new version (7) seems to add some great new features like docking in the Mac tray and improved speed. But yeah I think I will wa…
