  • Not all third party applications run in Classic. Ones that come to mind are some music apps using OMS, Poser and Ray Dream. In addition some hardware is not (yet?) supported in OS X therefore unusable in Classic : some SCSI equipment, scanners, e…
  • Have never had a heating problem with my MDD 1 gig, nor have seen anyone who has. For most people it is over cooled; apparently it is designed to be filled up (4 HDs, 4 PCI, etc.) and used in a hot and unventilated room. The two G4 processors run mu…
  • Bought it last September when I got my MDD. On the up side: prints look nice in terms of color and resolution, most people think it is photo quality. On the down side: ink is expensive and have found no third party suppliers. Having to swap c…
  • [quote]Let's face it. Very, Very few people like Microsoft. Unfortunately not. I would say: let's face it, the typical Joe Blow likes M$ for opening up the computer world to the common man through its easy to use OS and software. Credit is not a…
  • Forgot to mention in my last post: the vast majority of DVD players and TVs in Europe play NTSC without problem. On the contrary, a number of DVD players do not read DVD-R, but this situation exists in all countries.
  • I live in Europe and have made DVDs in NTSC that play fine in the States on my parents Amex 1201 DVD player. I imagine that the converse is also possible. Importing your film to iMovie from your video camera will be in NTSC. When you export it to…
  • to Mac Man: that's right
  • Railway engieer specialized in high speed lines (live in France).
  • Hey Murbot, perhaps it is a little too late but you forgot the most obvious method to recover data : manually! Just go over your hard drive with a big magnifying glass and have a pencil and paper handy. You can either write down + and - or 1 and …
  • From personal experience I totally agree that CRT macs do have a quality problem. I have seen the same thing in other industries as well: having a consumer product line with high volumes, thin profit margins and consequently lower quality assuran…
  • In iDVD there are about 8 themes. The uniform blue is the standard one. If you are not seeing them all then something is not right. The others include business, wedding, travel, sports, baby blue, baby pink, kid blud, and kid pink.
  • Found a Kodak DC3400 (older model but iPhoto compliant) at the local supermarket for about half price. I like Kodaks for their rugged and user friendly (ie idiot proof) design. May I suggest that you save some of your budget for more memory, manu…
  • I imagine that you have already seen a suggestion to keep the backlight off; just repeating it in case you haven't. Most importantly I find that setting up numerous playlists makes a big difference since that way I don't have to constantly fiddle…
  • Call me 62. Hey Leonis (No. 43, 44, 45) I know this is a stupid question but how about an answer all the same: How do you listen to three iPods with only two ears? New fangled adaptor?
  • Get a SCSI drive, they are fully compatible Mac/PC so are priced OK. If you do not have SCSI internally you will need to also get a PCI SCSI card. I've got an Adaptec Power Domain 2930 that works fine. Bought it a number a years ago so I'm not certa…
  • Apple has come out with the public preview version of Quicktime 6. In it they have a remplacement to MP3 called ACC audio. They claim the sound quality is much better. Obviously they will upgrade iTunes and iPod to this format. When is a big ques…
  • I also have a slot loading iMac and have not been able to get higher resolutions, but then again have not really tried that hard to get there. I also have a 17" monitor on a beige mac: 1280x1024 is nice for surfing, but text is a bit too small fo…
  • Personnaly I find digital cameras to be overpriced, so I shopped around and got a good discount on an older model. Of course this strategy was dependant on my objectives (2 million pixels, 3X optical zoom, rugged, pocket size, iPhoto compatible, …
