  • It doesn't really surprise me. What did you expect him to say? "Yeah, Jobs made a great decision going with that new IBM G5 chip. Wow, is it a stunner! Sure wish WE had something that cool!" He thinks his chips are the best and that everyone sh…
  • Personally, I agree with thuh Freak above. I keep Norton AntiVirus on my Macs simply to keep from sending any Windows viruses (especially Word macro viruses) on to any Windows users. I know that the virus won't have any effect on me, but I want to m…

  • I know you've ruled out the Nokia 3650 because of the non-standard keypad, but it meets all of your other requirements and is a wonderful phone. I would strongly reconsider it...
  • Quote: Originally posted by MacGregor This still begs the question about what will Apple do when REAL competition begins this Winter? Well, they've already managed to create a quality music service, so the technology is in place. As with so m…
  • Quote: Originally posted by JLL For third parties to use. We'll see. Online music will be a multi-billion dollar/year business soon. I can't see MS not wanting the lions share of that for themselves. I stopped giving MS the benefit of the do…
  • - SCSI (HOW many different versions were there?) - Chooser (Man, as a Windows switcher, I NEVER got this odd little program/control panel/network browser/printer selector) - Crashing over and over and over and over..... - Thursby's Dave (w…
  • My favorite bit from the latest USAToday article: Quote: Apple has sold 6.5 million songs since April; BuyMusic won't release figures, but "it's not millions," Blum says. I thought it was a bit suspicious that Blum didn't immediately start cr…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Jay Contonio Thanks a lot guys I'm just trying to figure it all out. I am going to go to T-Mobile tomorrow and try both phones. I hope they let you take one out of a box and demo it. I like the features of the 3650 …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Jay Contonio Thanks for the advice...I am already under contract with T-Mobile though...The 3650 looks great but it's too much phone for me...I only want a small flip phone which syncs to my mac...I don't need the palm…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Jay Contonio I see that the Motorola v60i will work with iSync but I was wondering if anyone had any success with the v60g. I've seen the model called the v60i(g) before and was wondering if it's really the same phone…
  • Quote: Originally posted by THT Any future plans for iSync to support Windows CE based products? In particular Samsung i700 PDA phone. I don't think we'll be seeing PocketPC support for iSync from Apple anytime soon, but I think you're in luc…
  • Going to throw my hat in the ring for Panic's Transmit, too. On 9 I used to be a HUGE Vicomsoft FTP Client fan, but since they took their damn sweet time in getting an X version out, I turned to Transmit and never looked back.
  • Quote: Originally posted by dnisbet I think that's how it should be. Yeah it could be quite unsecure and bad people could do naughty things to eachothers computers, but as long as you make sure your computer is secure then it'd be quite fun havin…
  • Quote: Originally posted by shetline Depending on how his apartment complex is wired up, this problem might not due to wireless connections. He might be on a common wired LAN with some of his other neighbors. (Not a good way for privacy to wire u…
  • Go for it. I've got Jaguar running on a beige G3 333 and it runs like a champ. I use it mainly as a file server and for Retrospect backup, but has been pushed into service running FileMaker databases and as a backup machine in a pinch without giving…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Amorph So apparently there are quite a few people for whom the eMac is just right. If it was really such a lukewarm consumer offering, it would have stayed in its educational niche. So before you go crying for its d…
  • Quote: Originally posted by applenut that's stupid. the eMac is for education. Education doesn't want and doesn't need a "long fabled headless iMac/Cube redux" Oh? Education doesn't want a less expensive option? My wife's school district …
  • I've said this before, but since I enjoy repeating myself. ;-) Get rid of the eMac and replace it with the long-fabled headless iMac/Cube redux. Have the G4 Cube2 start at $500 and go up to $1k (ideally, make this machine be able to accept a modu…
