  • Hi! Already found two answers: 1. You can create your own keyboard mapping in /System/Libraries/Keyboard Mappings/ 2. You can install drivers from the logitech website. These are correct, except for a few keys.. David

  • Hi there! I don't think this article is meant to be serious. It is imho meant to be funny (I find it funny), for obvious reasons. No human whatsoever would expect another platform to have solutions for problems it doesn't have (like a lot of vir…
  • Hi! I use the mini at home for multimedia and, shortly, for development purposes. The performance is ok, but I think my pc and notebook are a little faster. What I value most is the stability of the operating system, which is far superior to wi…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Gene Clean [B]Did this happen before, or just with the mini? It may be a problem with your Samba share; there are too many frames per second being displayed and the server cannot keep up at times. Yes, it happened b…

  • Hi there, got my mini yesterday: DVI works fine on 1200x1024. I exchanged the DDR-400 hynix 256MB Ram with a DDR-400 jetram 512MB Ram. I also tried a DDR-333 Noname 512MB Ram (same number of chips as the other 512MB) and it didn't work. It ju…
  • Hi there, I ordered mine about two weeks ago and got it yesterday. I live in Germany. David

  • Quote: Originally posted by jsimmons It sounds more like operator error than anything else. I am not a big fan of Windows myself, but it certainly isn't as unreliable as you make it out to be. You're spouting FUD more than anything else. I …
  • Quote: Originally posted by kotatsu [B]Which year are you living in? Just wondering. PCs don't crash 'all the time'. I could count the number of times my XP box at home has crashed on the fingers of one hand, and it's a 2 year old machine. Ind…
  • Hi! I think the usual consumer wants a pc to do his work with, and he doesn't like crashes and viruses. Linux can do a lot, bot it is not yet very user friendly to an average workstation user. And windows, well, it crashes all the time on most p…
  • Hi there! I just looked a bit around and found this: The DWL-122 from d-link claims to be mac compatible (supports IEEE 802.11b), and costs around 20 to 25 EUR here in Germany. Just plug in into the back of your mini. David
  • Quote: Originally posted by kotatsu Do you use Windows XP much? I'm not a MS fan at all, but I find XP to be very stable. In fact I can honestly say it has only crashed 3 or 4 times in the past 2 years. Applications crash of course, but XP ne…
  • Hi there, AFAIK Dell has only Windows-PCs, which are inferior because of the operating system (still crashes a lot on most pcs). And most users won't be experienced enough to use linux on a pc. So, software sells hardware. David
  • Quote: Originally posted by ibook911 Yes, thsi is true. You could even open the quicktime movie in Real Player or something, so you can have full screen. However, Quicktime Free will not do this. Well, Windows doesn't have the quicktime cod…
  • Hi there! Thx, I downloaded the quicktime part and installed it, and it worked. But it doesn't seem to have a fullscreen button. Anyway, now I know how to open the macmini, as I said, I changed my order at apple, and I will buy a separate 512M…
