Can anyone else comment on the battery life of their MacBook, especially compared to an iBook or PowerBook?

I had an old (not that old actually) Dell laptop with a P-4m (first version of the "mobile" chip with speed step) that did the random shutdown thing for a few months before I put it out of my misery. It was related to the processors internal therma…

I've seen pictures of the discoloration, and while it sucks and Apple should probably do something about it, it's not the end of the world. I've had an iBook since February, and I have noticable discoloration on both sides of the palm rest. I have…

I've been in Shanghai for the last seven weeks. I haven't found consumer electonics to be much less expensive than in the states. Of course, you might find things for 5-10% off, and you don't have to pay sales tax, so factor in another 5-10% depen…

Alright, thanks for the heads-up. Anyone know of an original NES emulator?

Bleh not seeing exactly what I want. Thanks for the recommendations though.

Thanks everyone. I tried BitsOnWheels. While using it, my airport went loco and I had to restart my laptop - three seperate times. I say no to that. I went back to Azereus after reading some online help guides. I guess I'll stay with it. It se…

Oh okay I understand now. so basically more than one process running or pending per sample would give a load average of more than one. (Meaning that a load average of one would mean that only one process was trying to run at any given time.) An…

Ok thanks. So basically those numbers are samples of the time-averaged percentages (where 1.0 == 100%) of the processor load as a function of threads/processes managed by the kernel (which should be all of the processes). Computer engineering is…

Then why are they not integer values? Currently I see: "0.39, 0.46, 0.26". Under extreme usage I have seen numbers as high as 1.3-something, but never an integer value. And by "time-sliced multitasking OS" do you mean multi-threaded?
