Criminy, this thing is fast!! It'll be really sweet on my new Ti 17

You can use any wireless card that uses the 802.11b standard. It should fit in the pcmcia slot of your Mac PowerBook and recognize either an AirPort Base Station or other wireless access point. If you need drivers for the Mac you might check out

I don't see this as a failing of Intuit, but rather a failing of Apple. It's a simple numbers game for companies deciding whether or not to support the Mac platform. Do you really expect a company to provide software at a loss? When developers …

Interesting, but I'm sticking with IE 5.1 for now. Its faster than before but still slower than IE 5.1. I've used it on an iBook 500 MHz, Ti667, and on an upgraded B&W (1 GB RAM, Sonnet Encore G4 500 Hz). At least its a better alternative than…

I'm waiting for the Office X suite especially tor EntourageX. The Mail.app that I'm using now is crap. Perhaps I should give the Eudora ßeta a shot.

The feature I value most in my computers is Mac OS X. That p.o.s. Sony will never run the Mac OS.

Something like 83% of people are right handed. Why the heck are the ports not on the right side? I find it terribly inconvenient to use an external mouse with the cord wound around back of the PowerBook - the damn thing is too short. Perhaps with t…

From everyone's suggestions, I like: 12" = MiniBook 17" = MegaBook

Seems like the biggest performance gains are being reported by people with ATi cards with 16 MB VRAM or more. I ran the update on my Ti667 (Gigabit Ethernet, 16 MB graphics card) with Jaguar installed and the gains were tremendous! Scrolling in IE a…

I got mine for a hair over $2800 plus tax. Yeah, they said prices would come down with the intro of new models adn I was indeed planning to wait, but I had waited long enough. Another day would have put me in a bell tower with a high-powered rifle. …

I bought the Dual-Ghz SDRAM just before MacWorld New York on the advice of several friends who are insiders at Apple. They strongly hinted that the changes were not earth-shattering and the current models (SDRAM) would be similar in performance. I w…

I was one of the biggest whiners about Apple's lack of DDR RAM (true DDR RAM) and was making noises about going Wintel. But then I was "schooled" about a true balanced system, and how all these whiz-bang features we're missing really don't mean squa…

The Voodoo 5500 PCI is indeed an awesome card, especailly for gaming. Unfortunately you can't use it with OS X. At all. Period. A Mac with a Voodoo card will not even boot into OS X. I bought mine about a month before 3DFX went bust. Bastards. May …

Unhappy news to be sure, but it's not really a surprise now, is it? The performance gap is looking like the Grand Canyon, and no amount of Applespin can change that fact.

iBook 500 MHz: OS X sings!

Can you boot from a CD?

I was going to suggest everyone wait until MWSF in a couple of weeks just in case new iBooks or speed bumps are announced. Older models will come down in price a few hundres $$ then. Also take a look at the Apple Store's stock. They offer you th…

I've always enjoyed Chimera's speed, but I just don't get some folks' insistance on tabbed browsing. I've used it, and while neat it's no more convenient than having several windows open and cycling through them with Appple + ~. Unless, of course, y…

This guy has no more credibility than Ryan Meader at MOSR. Yeah, Steve Jobs called him specifically into his office in Cupertino and said, "Psst. Keep this under your hat. We're going to change chips and I want an important developer like you to be …
