Are you worried about performance, or just video ports? I'd probably recommend a pair of the Radeon HD 2600XT cards that came stock with the 2008 Mac Pro. They're dual DVI, as opposed to the DVI + Mini DisplayPort that the current Geforce GT 120s ha…

Installed a 128GB Crucial SSD in a customer's MacBook Pro not long ago. It was a night-and-day difference. If you can stomach the price and the lesser storage, it's worth it - no question.

Probably the best way to answer the question once and for all is to try another Mighty Mouse. If it's an inherent software issue, another identical mouse should show the same issues. If it works, the original mouse is dirty or defective.

Unfortunately, that's a little too vague. If you can't upload a picture (command-shift-3 for screenshot), can you give us a better description?

Yeah, that keyboard is likely toast. It might not be a bad idea to open up Keyboard Viewer and see what's being typed when you hit a button. To open the KV, to go System Preferences, to International, and activate the keyboard viewer checkbox, w…

We'll assume that is true for the time being (although I still think it's a factor). It doesn't address the price issue. Those drives are quite expensive, even more so if you want the rare Blu-Ray writer. There's heat to consider, as well as powe…

It depends HIGHLY on what you are measuring. Verizon can only provide and guarantee 3 Mbit connection between you and them, they can't be responsible for connection speeds between you and the entire internet. It can depend just as much on the destin…

Even outside of warranty, any white Intel iMac's logic board is only going to be in the range of $449, significantly less than a new machine. If it's a G5 and turns out to me the logic board, I concur, replace it. However, I would be willing to p…
