I know I've been ranting in here a lot, but here is an update: Left computer alone for a while and the display went to sleep while running 3 apps. Tried to wake it up and it took about 4 minutes to wake up. When it did, no apps running. I got about…

Okay, took out the ram and am going to monitor my computer for a few days and see what happens. The slowness of my computer is killing me now. Ram is soooooooooo damn essential. Dropping 512 off of your ram is a killer. I don't dare open more than…

Thanks all for the info and advice. Much appreciated. The ram does have a lifetime guarantee. I have to leave it our for a few days to determine if its the culprit. The quirks of my iBook are so random, its not like I can pop the ram out and know im…

I guess I could take out my ram tonight and see what happens. I'm just curious as to why you guys think it might be the ram. I want to understand as much as I can before I do anything more really.

Here's the version I used to span with success: How do I enable Monitor Spanning on the iBook? The iBook comes standard with video "mirroring". Using a simple, pretty much harmless Firmware hack, monitor "spanning" can be turned on. First I'll…

Woah! Seriously... WOAH!

I haven't toyed with playlists. I just rip albums and then end up organizing them. A lot of the music I listen to isn't found in the CDDB, so I end up typing track titles. Last night is a good example. A 99 song EP (yes, you read that right) on a 3'…

Yup. I must have clicked on Track # by mistake. Thanks for the fix. I'll go hide my embarassed face now...

Whee! I made the team. Now I need to take new photos with my swank new desk and spanned monitor set-up.

Woah. Cool app. I'm running it now. I have gotten 3 hours max out of my battery. I'm going to keep an eye on it and see what happens.

I travelled a few hours away to buy my iBook because of the pushy sales people at the local store. I knew exactly what I wanted... yet they pushed more expensive product on me constantly. "You should really get the 12'' Powerbook!" Sure, give me the…

Woah! Those look nice. I just might have to splurge and pick one of those mice up. Price isn't too bad either... considering an Apple mouse is $60!!!
