  • Quote: Originally posted by NoahJ Thanks for joining rogue27, is that the name you are folding under? I also was folding with a 400MHz G4 until I upgraded it to 1GHz. There was a good increase of speed, but the 400 MHz was able to make great st…
  • I just started folding for team 1971, but I only have a 400Mhz G4. I have to get back to work now, but I'll check out your forums when I get a chance.
  • I would expect the mini iPod to drop to $199 by the end of the year, but Apple needs to milk the early adopters for now. Some people may think it's worth the extra money for the smaller size and choice of color. Who knows? Is the aluminum one …
  • I don't know if "crushes" is the right word here. Once you factor in the under $150 players, the iPod market share doesn't look quite so great. iPod may be the best selling MP3 player, but there are a lot of MP3 players out there and the number i…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Jellytussle Well, that's Classic thinking, since an inactive app should have negligible performance impact. Yeah, it should, but if you ever run top while Microsoft Word is running, even with no open documents…
  • Maybe he just doesn't want to pay any interest and won't have enough money to pay for everything on the next bill. Anyway, I hate to say it, but I think ordering before the 20th was um... how do I say this nicely? Yeah. I've been in several si…
  • Dial up on Mac OS X does seem to be more flakey than on Windows, but no as bad as you are making it sound. It seems to have gotten better in Jaguar and forward, but I think the modem connection scripts still need some work. At the place I work…
  • When I was looking at laptops in 2000, the PowerBook seemed to have the best balance of features and price. I was familiar with Windows and Mac OS at the time, so it wouldn't have been a great change no matter what I bought. I bought a Pismo/Fire…
  • Quote: Originally posted by fbdesigns I am curious on how the dvd superdrive works and the programs that support it. I have over 300 legal dvds and would like to either backup on dvd or hard drive files. Do you know if there is anything soft…
  • 8MB ATi Rage 128 Mobility (in a Pismo) The cursor has only disappeared while viewing this forum, but it's happened a couple times already.

  • Quote: Originally posted by Sapper46123 I was thinking about getting a laptop, probably an iBook G4 due to my budget. What kind of Mac do you guys think I should get? I'll be doing word processing, listenging to music, internet surfing, graph…
  • The sad thing is I thought it didn't work at first, until I realized my math was wrong. After my 2nd, 3rd, and 4th tries all worked I began to wonder and I figured it out pretty quickly. The most disappointing thing, however, is how slow the crys…
  • I saw this behavior twice yesterday. Both times were on this forum. Probably just a coincidence.
  • Three downloads from three different links. Bad checksum each time. It's also not showing up in my Software Update.
  • Drat! I checked Software, News, and Mac OS X to be sure there wasn't a duplicate thread already. Ah well.
  • Won't he have to use something like XPostFacto to get OS X to run on that machine? Is that an easy thing to do? I've never attempted to use X on anything without USB, so I don't know how much of a hassle it is to set up, but I don't think it will…
  • I have my iTunes music library located in /Library/Webserver/Documents/music This does two things. One, people connecting to my computer over the web (I have the webserver running) can see my music collection. Two, that folder is public reada…
  • I have no need or desire to ever boot my Pismo into OS 9 again, but I do have some software that only has Classic installers. Namely, Diablo II and StarCraft. Here's what I did: Backup useful files. Erase hard drive and install Panther. Restore…
