  • As of 10:46 PM on Wednesday December 1st the Canada store is live. Choose sign in, then select the option for not having a US credit card. Canada now shows as a country and you will be taken to the store. Tracks are $0.99 and albums seem to be $9.99…
  • Edit: Oops! Mods, if you could change the title to read "HL-1435" that would be great. Thank you.
  • On a related point (why bother starting a new thread!) I'm thinking about getting an iSight soon, but I'm confused about what the currently included mounts will work with. Apple currently lists the following mounts as being included: Quote: a m…
  • Did Microsoft ever actually come out and say that native graphics hardware support would be included? I've been paying attention to all of the VPC 7 news since I have a G5 and if there's one thing Microsoft has been this whole time it's cagey. B…
  • Oops! I did mean the WRT54G. And those prices at Canada Computers look pretty good. I think I'll check them out next week.
  • One thing you might have to look out for is if you have things set up to connect with PPoE (say, if you're using DSL at home). If yes, you will probably have to go into Network prefs. and turn this option off.
  • Quote: Originally posted by bborofka I just expected Apple would support this very popular line of phones in the near future, the V300, V400 (both USB) and V600 (Bluetooth). They support a whole slew of other Motorola phones. People looking to ge…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Leonard You have to watch it, though when you look at those update dates. The PowerMac update on 11/2003 wasn't really an update in my book. Apple simply made the Single 1.8 G5 a Dual 1.8 G5. Most people didn't coun…
  • What you need is this: http://acmfiles.csusb.edu/corel/wpmac.html Why? It's the final version of WordPerfect for Mac, available for free, and able to run in Classic. Doesn't work 100% of the time, but this has helped me out quite a bit when I've …
  • For what it's worth, I just received the Sept. Macworld and it has a full-page ad for VPC 7. I remember this happening with Office earlier in the year. There was an ad in Macworld and then around a month later Office shipped.
  • Also, if your friend doesn`t mind using the PC Card slot, they could pick up a PCMCIA 802.11g card. Since last summer, the Airport software has recognised such cards without the need for additional drivers and treats them as Airport cards, plus you …
  • Quote: Originally posted by Ra Anyway, in the meantime you can try bochs or QEMU if you have a G5. I can vouch for QEMU working on a G5. It took a certain degree of playing around and looking at UNIX commands I didn't quite understand (bu…
  • Quote: Originally posted by stevegongrui ok guys, I really need help. this problem is driving me crazy. What are the policies on apple care? Do I need the receipt from where I bought it from? also, how about the phone service if i call …
  • Quote: Originally posted by kumrabai I buy the hacking argument - doesn't seem right. Why the apologies? Why the apologies? Isn't there a quarterly results conference call coming up shortly? if yes, with such low stock of iMacs and with so …
  • Looks like the notice is only up at US and Canada stores. You can still buy an iMac in Japan and Europe.
  • Now that is both strange and cool. For anyone who doesn't want to check the link themselves, what it says is that they are no longer taking iMac orders since a new model will be "announced and available" in September and that Apple had planned to ha…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Chris Cuilla ( why am I doing this...why am I doing this...why am I doing this ) Because you're trying to avoid chores, dissertation work and packing for a trip like I am I'm right with you. I'd put the chan…
  • Mind you, some of the Japanese Apple stores (not THE Apple store) can be quite on top of things. If you go to the tech district of Tokyo you'll find a bunch of multi-floor stores that sell only Apple stuff. I was in Tokyo last year during WWDC a…
  • Quote: Originally posted by Mac OS X Wow. I absolutely cannot believe that Apple opened the iTMS in Europe before Canada. I really, really get the feeling that Apple has it in for Canada, as the poor country habitually takes it up the a$$ from …
