  • I have a small, pocket-sized brochure about the Powerbook. They were laying around at the CompUSA store I visited. These little 'booklets' were also available for the iMac2 and the iBook. I just don't see Apple spending millions to send out bulk …
  • It's a great idea. I don't see Apple doing this. Maybe when pigs fly.
  • If you can turn your desk away from any source of light, so that the light shines at the side(s) of the desk and not on the screen that helps a little. If you are having headaches, have your eyes examined. I don't know if you wear glasses/contact…
  • Originally posted by jaske: I recommend purchasing the iBook 800, as it is a "mature" product, it's less expensive, and should easily handle your wife's needs for the next few years. The 12" Powerbook is a first iteration Mac, which unfortunatel…
  • Don't know where you can find such a cheap deal from Dell, Gateway etc. You might try eMachines; they are pretty bad, though. Wondering why you can't get an old iMac with a built in screen on Ebay? Many people sell their old iMacs, and often t…
  • Used iMacs from 233MHZ to 400MHZ go for from $175 to $300 on eBay. The 233's may go for $175 or so on Ebay, but the final bids on the 400's and 500's are $400 and up. Some of these auctions have lots of bidders. Check it out and see. I check ou…
  • I've seen two iMac CRT's on "Smallville" in the high school newspaper room. Also, the trailers for Steve Martin's new movie "Bringing Down The House" shows Steve sitting at a desk with a Powerbook. Have to look quick to see it, though. --I'm new…
  • I chose my signature because I like Paul Simon's song, 'The Boxer'. Also, it's my comment about man in general---we all hear only what we want to hear.
  • Shows I watch all the time: Stargate SG-1 (Mondays and Fridays) Smallville Shows I watch when I remember the time/day they're on: Gibson Girls The Practice ER That's all I watch other than news/weather. [ 02-12-2003: Message edite…
  • I don't help the homeless. I did years ago, but some incidents last summer made me stop. There's a homeless woman, 40-ish who used to hang around our neighborhood. Last summer, she was living with an old man across the street from us. My husband …
  • Originally posted by tonton: Hmmm... from the commentary track she sure does a lot of boasting about her knowledge of physics going beyond what she'd need to know in the series. I guess it's all method acting, then. As Teal'c would say: Indeed.
  • The cast of the show does indeed work great together. Sad to see Daniel leave after season 5, but he's confirmed to be returning for season 7, together with the rest of the cast. Amanda Tapping (Sam Carter) is especially impressive. She speaks eloqu…
  • Husband and I have MASH seasons 1 and 2, anxiously awaiting season 3. Also have Stargate SG-1 seasons 1 and 2. Stargate is a good show; sometimes the storylines could be better, but the cast really works well together. MASH Season 3 will be rele…
  • Originally posted by stunned: Many seasoned mac users are probably waiting for the new processor iMacs while potential switchers are probably turned off by the prices. Many of my friends just can't believe the price tag of the iMacs. And I can't…
  • Hopefully once the iMac CRT disappears (if it ever does...) then the eMac will take over the $799 price point. Apple needs to have at least one computer down there in price, and the eMac fits the bill fine. Something like eMacs at $799 and $999 with…
