    in When will 10.x be like 9.2? Comment by brianmacos July 2002
  • I think it is because they are all loading at the same time when I boot up OSX I have a 3 things in my Dock that I always load right away, IE, Mail, Yahoo Messenger it takes longer to load them all at that time then it does to do it one by one waiti…

  • Well it won't come up in my Disk Utility in OSX or OS9.... but the HD will come up on my desktop and I am able to use it in OS9.... it will not allow me to pick a Mac format it just stays with the DOS format.

  • It will work fine in 9.2 my Pockey 20 gig external USB works fine I think we just have to wait for newer drivers before are drives will work. Yeah I saw that same drive at Best Buy in Duluth, MN... I am kind of happy I didn't buy it now because I h…

  • Damn that is crazy I was actually going to buy that same External Drive today 60 gig 5400 firewire 1/2USB... looked like a great deal did you pick it up for 179$ with 159$ after rebate? I currently have a Pockey 20 gig USB 1/2 HD and the current o…

    in Windows always is faster that OSX (in this) Comment by brianmacos July 2002
  • Another thing if you are having slow load times leave the stuff you use most running in the DOCK. I always have IE and Mail running in my DOCK along with a few other things running. I don't notice any slow downs in my systems performance when I do…

  • Haha I don't even know why you bother using XP on a 300mhz machine. That has got to be painful... I know many people running OSX on a 500mhz iBook and don't complain at all. I went from a 1ghz p3 to a 700mhz g3 and have nothing to complain about…

  • -------------------- OS X is an awesome OS that is being held back by slow hardware. It would be like running Windows XP on a 400MHz P3. Doable, but noticeably slow and not recommended. -------------------- First off OSX is so new you can't re…

    in Jaguar Free? This rumor says so! Comment by brianmacos June 2002
  • Personally I think it would be smart for Apple to release OSX 2 as a free upgrade!!! OSX hasn't been out all that long why should they charge money for it. I just bought my iBook and the last thing I want to do is pay to upgrade my OS. Apple give…

  • [quote]Originally posted by DHagan4755: I don't know the logistics of your situation and all the components involved, but why not use TCP/IP? OS X is slowly dissolving AppleTalk in favor of TCP/IP. How do I tell my ibook to use TCP/IP instead …
    in Appletalk Protocol Comment by brianmacos November 2002
  • My god that pisses me off. I am surprised MS has done that. Oh well I'm bring home my server from school tomorrow and that will be running Win2k Advanced Server and will have Appletalk on it. I'm getting a 500mhz p3, 384 sd ram, some cheaper grap…

  • I installed the latest nightly build and now I am unable to use Chimera all together. I uninstalled and than reinstalled and still no go. What can I do to fix this.
    in Chimera Nightlies. Comment by brianmacos October 2002
  • Well here is what I did. I went ahead and redid my whole iBook. it only took me 3 hours to get all my apps and data back. Although I did forget to do one thing and that was export my bookmarks which I am kind of upset about considering I had a lo…
