I have also bought the super drive 15" and I must say I really really like this powerbook. It feels more solid then the Ti, the screen is as bright or even brighter than my 20" Apple Cinema Display (though I've noticed it DOES have a very slight re…

The loud fan noise is expected when that machine isn't fully booted up or running in special modes because the fans and the thermal zones are software controlled. I noticed this too when I wrote my review of the 1.6 model for Computerworld.

Maybe it's an undocumented feature? Spring-loaded lid action anyone?

Well, b59 certainly isn't the last build because it's buggy as all get out. Expect more updates soon.

The last two weeks I've converted two Windows people (actually, one Windows person and another Windows Family). Needless to say, if they're not happy with their computers (a G4 1.25, and an iBook), I'm the one going to get blamed. Well, they're happ…

I freelance, though I used to work for Computerworld's IT department years ago. I just found out my article ranked seventh most read in the entire CW site! Sweet.

Yevgeny: the editor (or the copy desk, not sure which) threw in the examples. I contacted them and repeatedly told them to remove the examples or change that sentence to something more like " four gigs is fine for word processing to photoshop or low…

Wow. It's been put on MacSurfer, it's the third story down. Oh man.

B44 is nice! Fast, the new animation brought a smile to my face, and the bugs seem to be disappearing. Only thing that I noticed is the hot corners don't activate screen saver at all. ohhh well! Sweet build though. Just a quick note that I've not…

Quote: Originally posted by Chairman Meow Hmm, how are you installing 7b28? I don't have any of the authentication problems that some people seem to be experiencing. Everything I authenticate works just fine here, where exactly are you seeing t…

By the way, there's a work around for that authentication issue. You have to start up from the Panther CD and reset the password for root (resetting the password for yourself doesn't fix it) and then log in as root and make yourself an admin again. …

Actually, everything is really fast (I can't believe how fast these builds are getting) from dragging Finder windows to web browsing. But, that authentication issue is a big drag.

The 7B28 build of Panther has administration issues. Basically, if you were an admin before, you're not after installing this build. It doesn't allow you to authenticate unless you're root. beh. Beta software: what'cha gonna do?
