  • I second it. OmniGraffle is a kick ass app, very visio-like and the price is good too, well worth it. The free 'version' also isn't even that crippled, although I'd recommend you support the folks at OmniGroup, they're software is top notch, and t…
  • I like it. Its a fun game... game of the year though? I don't know, the year is only half over, could be a few surprises left. At any rate, i think the best part is the fact that it came out Mac/Windows at the same time. Even the first patch wa…
  • [quote] I wonder whether QT6 streaming could be used for video-conferencing. After all video-conferencing is nothing more than streaming between two (or more) locations. IMO, it's just a matter of (hopefully short) time before we see a QT6-based vid…
  • Mandrake is quite a nice distro. It will fly on that hardware (my box is pretty similar, except I have an adaptec 29160 with an ultra 160 18 gig disk, and my duron overclocked to 950Mhz ). If you don't mind spending the money (and you may as …
  • Yes! Did you have any other questions?
  • Civ3 and black and white are what i've been playing lately ... Also, Giants: Citazen Kabuto is really really fun. All run just fine under OSX, even on my 'lowly' G4 cube ...

  • You should give the ximian stuff a try (www.ximian.com). If you let it update your gnome to their version, it also installs the latest mozilla and evolution, as well as a bunch of other stuff. Evolution is really quite nice for mail, it works like…
  • I run civ3 on my 450Mhz Cube. I do have 1.5GB of ram, and a faster hd though ... and civ3 runs pretty acceptably. The key, i think, is in the 'Use quartz for text rendering' setting. With this setting on, civ3 lets quartz draw the text, and it do…
  • How old is your older iMac? I believe the minimum specs are a 400Mhz G3. I ran it on such a G3 today, and it seemed ok . I also am installing it right now on 450Mhz G4 (cube) and it seems ok now too ...

  • My Girlfriend has offered me ASS in the past ... but I tell her, "No way honey! I'm a P* man all the way.". * P being Perl ...

  • I usually only get 10-15FPS with iTunes 2... G4 Cube 450Mhz 1.5GB ram OSX 10.1.1 GeForce2 MX400 How do you 'tweak' iTunes?
  • I have a cube with the stock 450Mhz G4, 1.5GB of ram, a GeForce2 MX, and a SeaGate Barracuda IV (80 gig). No fans whatsoever! Everything has been working great for at least 6 months now. I don't anticipate any problems either ... I do plan to upg…
  • How loud can it be? I have an AMD duron box I built myself, it has 9 or so fans. One on the power supply, one on the chipset, one on the video card, 2 exhaust fans, 2 intake fans, one on the hard drive, one one the CPU... maybe others i'm forgetti…
  • They aren't worth crap, you don't want that stuff taking up space in your house ... but i tell ya what, i'll take 'em off your hands real cheap ... say, $25 a piece? and if you'll buy that, I have a bridge you might be interested in ...
  • Does anyone even make bluetooth mice and keyboards? As far as i know, its just cell phones and some PDAs... not super useful (I own neither, and even if i did, what would the chances be its bluetooth enabled?) But, a wireless keyboard and mouse …
  • My girlfriend described the new iMac as 'a little weird' when she first saw it ... but she laughed outloud when the iMac flips open its superdrive in responce to the guy sticking out his toungue ... hilarious.
