Randycat, Yes, it does seem that (based on customer feedback on various Apple forums) Powerlogix needs to do a better job with customer support. Most people who get their upgrades running absolutely LOVE the upgrades, but there are quite a few pe…

Quote: Originally posted by Randycat99 Thanks! I do attribute it to you guys for dispelling the notion that Powerlogix had gone rogue, enough for me to dare opening the package to install the part. Randy, It's been a while since you las…

Only $69 for students and teachers with educational pricing?!? WOW! I've never been so happy to STILL be taking college classes in my late 20s!!!! I hope my Pismo PowerBook will be very happy with Panther.

Regardless of what the new iBooks look like, I'm sure they will raise the bar in terms of features and performance for the iBook line ... which is all most people care about. Sure, I'd love a black-colored iBook that looks so cool that everyone on t…

Randycat99, I'm glad things seem to be going OK. Your situation reminds me of how I would always get strange error messages on my PowerBook whenever I upgraded the RAM until I pressed the PRAM reset. Yep, like I said, computers are complicated…

Quote: Originally posted by klinux RD, I agree with you 100%. I am not complaining about the RAM speed per se but really the overall system - a slow CPU with a slow FSB and a slow memory and a slow HD (not Apple's fault - all laptops use slower …

Quote: Originally posted by Randycat99 Here's the big moneyshot question, then. The root of my concern is that allegedly, they may send out a DOA CPU. You try it, it doesn't work, so they allow you to return it in exchange for another part. Whe…

I don't know about your particular situation, but I know several people who purchased Pismo upgrades from Powerlogix and "thought" they had a DOA processor. They re-installed the upgraded processor card, turned on the computer, and nothing happen…

Quote: Originally posted by Eugene Owens Corning's has complete rights to the Pink Panther toon? I'd think DePatie-Freleng or MGM/UA would still control those rights. I'm not sure. I was really just making a joke regarding the new "Apple vs.…

Quote: Originally posted by s.metcalf I'd like the Pink Panther one! Somehow, I think Owens Corning (the company that secured the rights to use the Pink Panther for their pink insulation) would bring a lawsuit against Apple. Besides, I r…

Quote: Originally posted by Amorph Where do you get this from? The 750FX supports 32-bit physical addressing (4GB) according to IBM's documents, and the 60x bus also supports 32-bit addressing. Certainly, any number of G3 desktops have support…

Quote: Originally posted by CosmoNut I think the Pismo is STILL the most well-rounded laptop Apple's ever produced. It's the only one to have 2 FW ports, 2 USB ports, VGA, S-Video, audio in and out, IR, PC card, 2 removable batteries and/or a ho…
