Well, the ones that print properly (ie, you can do it more than once) they are all Windows machines.

Plug in FireWire Drive... Done Back up Files... Done Boot off of AC Power Alone... Done Insert Battery... Done Recharge Battery... Failed The comptuer works fine except one thing. It will not recharge the battery. It will boot off of the batt…

Oh, the home remedy I was looking for... I pressed the little black reset button on the back panel of the PowerBook, then I took it apart somewhat and put it back together. Then I put the battery in and pressed the power button. It turned on …

Well, G4 Dude I'll have to let you know after I find out how dead it is. I'm going to see what it will cost to get an estimate. As for the warranty... no, I bought it from Outpost.com didn't have a chance to buy a warranty. Outpost didn't offer i…

Yeah, I was afraid that may have been the case there, sizzle chest. I was looking at PBparts.com and they had a Power/Sound board for my computer (pismo) that cost $229, but the guy said if it won't even turn on with the battery it is probably more …

At least if it does turn out to be the hard drive, it won't be that expensive to fix. Hard drives can be gotten pretty cheaply.

Target Disk Mode should work, because I've used it before and it seems to ignore permissions on the target disk.

I guess you can look on e-bay, but I'd suggest a newer computer because you are less likely to have problems with it. The low-end iBook would probably be a good choice. It's durable, has a good screen, and would run office and stuff just fine. …

One thing to watch out for is to make sure Sherlock is not doing it's indexing in the background under OS 9.

That problem sounds familiar with a beige G3 my family owns. We had a power spike (actually the transformer outside our house actually exploded one day) and after that point, our CD ROM drive started functioning poorly, and we thought it or the c…

Thanks, I'll take a look, but do you remember how you did it?

Hey, at least she told you now instead of burning off another two years of your life before letting you know.

Command+N should not create a new folder, because on every other app, Command+N creates a new window, and inconsistency is a bad thing. Annoying bugs: Samba in general could use some work. Aside from that, I mostly just want to see performa…

Well, I missed one important thing. I forgot to download the 1.4.1 developer tools that are now available from apple's developer site. That said, if I recompile my stuff with the 1.4.1 compiler, some things do run noticeably faster now. On the ot…

Doesn't seem any faster to me. When running appletviewer I see error messages coming up in the terminal. If I drag part of the appletviewer window off the screen, the bar at the bottom that normally says "applet started" gets painted over with…

I changed the source code a bit, (still available at the url in my first post) and the changes seem to yield slightly better overall results. It looks like OS X isn't too shabby, but it could really use some improvement to the creation and joinin…
