in Real player not until June Comment by jimdad July 2002

Could i just say thanks to everyone who responded and that i haven't understood a THING you've said. However, i have downloaded DIVXosx (?) and used avi to .mov which solved my problem immediately. I'm envious of you guys' knowledge. Thanks

in Can Quicktime play AVI movies? Comment by jimdad February 2002

Hi, I'm a bit of a newbie at this . Is there a Mac version of audiogalaxy? I'm sure last time I looked it was PC only or am I missing something?

in Morpheus for mac comming! Comment by jimdad February 2002

I've no intention of having two desktops around the house again. I went for a 12" iBook +airport card (£632 in UK educ.) and I love it. It depends what you're after. If you want raw power get the PC - although I quite happily play my kids at RTCW u…

in Help me avoid buying a Dell Comment by jimdad February 2003

Come on over to Perth then. Our floods are all less than 4 ft and much more middle class.

in Power Mac 933 vs IMAC 800 Comment by jimdad August 2002

No offence, but do any of the new imac doubters here actually own one? We've just taken delivery of one at my school (I've already got one at home) and | haven't seen it since it arrived for crowds of kids round it. I've had four or five heads of …

in The official "iMac G4 Death Knell Thread" - Ask not for whom the bell tolls..... Comment by jimdad June 2002

G4, are you sure it's an imac you've got? Don't recognise it from your description. I've had mine for about a month now and have hardly been off it. There is no problem playing DVDs, no stuck keys and i can't believe your comments on the screen. I'…

in I wouldn't suggest buying a new iMac (Yes I do own one). Comment by jimdad March 2002

Does this mean for once i've come out ahead of all those who said it was silly to leap in and buy a new untried machine ? (Sits back, plays games and waits for the flack)

in NEW iMac - now Revision B and more expensive? Comment by jimdad March 2002

Hey, Notts ! Way to go, as our American cousins say. I've been wondering when yours would arrive. Worth the wait? I was at the Mac OS roadshow in Edinburgh today and came home really fired up. Apple UK seemed to have a good handle on what our co…

in UK iMac (LCD) Comment by jimdad February 2002

Could i just say that the new imac has caused me no problems whatsoever in the 2 weeks (nearly ) that i've had it. It is the most beautiful machine to look at and use. Of course we can all carp and find small niggles but one look at my wealthy windo…

in Rumor Control: iMac all it's cracked up to be? Comment by jimdad February 2002

Sorry, Eugene, I wasn't talking about worldwide - I was talking about the UK because that's what spooky was on about . Apple isn't big here - Time magazine isn't big here and if Apple wants to sell here they have got to pay a lot more attention to …

in Wall Street: Apple To Ship 1.3 Million iMacs This Year Comment by jimdad February 2002

Spooky has a fair point about lack of frenzy for the new imac across here but only because very few people are aware it exists. No media coverage whatsoever ( I'm afraid Time magazine isn't big ) Until we see it appear in retail stores and see the o…

in Wall Street: Apple To Ship 1.3 Million iMacs This Year Comment by jimdad February 2002

Hey, i don't know if you people's experience is the same as mine but I'm up against Windows every time I turn around at my work. It seems to me Macs have come within an ace of being wiped out of the UK only a couple of years ago. Let's not slag each…

in UK - iMac orders outstanding? (UPDATE) Comment by jimdad February 2002

I've had the same problem as mac's girl. transferring from old Rev B imac to new one I cant get them to recognise each other through Apple Talk. I've been reading posts about crossover ethernet cables being needed or not. Does anyone know if it mat…

in time with the new iMac (brief and scattered assessment) Comment by jimdad February 2002

Got home from work to find it sitting there. More fun with a box than I've ever had. Started up first time - boy was that a relief after the various posts. don't think there are any dead pixels but I'm not certain. Screen is awesome and System X jus…
