    in iMac Display? Comment by beigeuser January 2006
  • It's likely that it will be bundled with all consumer Macs as they get redesigned. Pro Macs? Not sure. There is also a good chance that it will be a part of iLife '06 for older Macs. According to Apples job postings, Apple will continue to develop t…

  • Think about it this way, in a dual-drive striped-RAID setup, you have twice the moving parts which is equal to double the chances of failure.

  • Mac graphics cards need special firmware. So PC cards generally do not work in Macs.

  • My reception has improved noticeably. I have a PM G4 MDD with Airport Extreme connected to a standard Wifi(G) router/ADSL modem.

  • The updater link is on the page that I mentioned above. Find the right version for Mac OS X. http://lasvegas.rpc1.org/ As for the firmware files, I discovered that it requires a windows machine to extract the firmware. I must've used VPC. It's…
    in Firmware upgrade for DVD Recorder Comment by beigeuser November 2005
  • Unfortunately, I think the Airport Express extends the range of the network only if the WiFi router supports WDS. My ADSL modem had a built-in WiFi router so I bought a AE to extend my network but to my disappointment, I discovered that my modem …

  • We need to know which pioneer drive that you have! But assuming that it's a recent model Pioneer internal drive, let me answer your question: go here: http://lasvegas.rpc1.org/ download the firmware updater Go to the pioneer website, dow…
    in Firmware upgrade for DVD Recorder Comment by beigeuser November 2005
  • If a complete reformat and reinstall did not fix it, the drive is probably failing. Using disk repair utilities may extend its life a bit but I would just buy a new drive while I still have time to recover the data on the old one. If it's a probl…

    in Apple displays ... 133dpi? Comment by beigeuser October 2005
  • Quote: Originally posted by paulumos Why can't you imagine it? Actually, I don't think you'd have to imagine it; were you around for the transition from OS 9 to OS X? Apple didn't wait on the heavy hitters to port their software before shipping…
    in Next PB/ibook intel or 7448 CPU? Comment by beigeuser October 2005
  • It will probably be a dual-core Intel chip.

  • I'd buy the white but I don't see any harm in a black version as long as there's a market for it.
    in Would you buy a black imac? Comment by beigeuser October 2005
  • You have many choices. Buying a mini ($499-$699) Pros: 1.42GHz G4, faster bus, airport extreme, bluetooth, reasonable price, virtually silent operation, small footprint. Cons: Radeon 9200, slow & small hard drive, slow & difficult-to-up…

  • In Japan, you only see iPod ads. What? Apple makes computers too!? edit: Now that I think of it, I've seen some ads for Tiger earlier this year. But I still can't recall Apple advertising any of its computers.
    in Apple advertises! Oh my god! Comment by beigeuser September 2005
  • IMO, Think Secret often missed completely new products (versus updates to current products). Apple has always been good at hiding brand new projects. So even if Think Secret predicts very little updates for the rest of the year, there may still be a…

  • My guess is that Steve wanted to announce it in his keynote but someone posted it on the website too early.
    in Apple Offering 30Day MoneyBack on Mac Mini Comment by beigeuser August 2005
  • I used to think logically and say things like: Apple will never go intel and Apple will never make a multi-button mouse. I even said that the G5 will hit 3GHz by this time last year. So, let me say something different for a change. The new ne…
