  • Almost same problem here ( B/W G3, Stock ATI Rage128) Whatever the choosen resolution, it's limited to 75Hz. My desktop was usualy set at 1024*768/120Hz or 1280*1024/85Hz whith 10.1.4, but now I max out at 75Hz
  • I don't think so. Your computer must be turned on to use an alarm clock.
  • I use yhis feature almost every day. My computer wakes my every day at 7Am by playing an audioCD or a bunch of MP3's. Since the computer sit in my bedroom, i turn it off before sleeping and it wakes me up every morning ( it's hooked to my stereo)

  • Deleting iMovie's prefs may help. I had a big problem last night. iMovie crashed while saving my project and when I tried to re-lauch it, iMovie said the my project file was corrupted and that it couldn't load the movie. I almost cried, because…
  • Same problem as norfa, here. iMovie is quite crashprone on my B/W G3. (it crashes once an hour, quite disappointing), but now (this problem just apperared this afternoon), I can't load iMovie anymore: it quits on launch.
  • You should try GraphicConverter ( see
  • CPU utilization on my B/W G3 400MHz, 512MB iTunes 2.0.3: 10-15.5% iTunes 2.0.4: 9-14.5% after a reboot Not very impressive (at least for me), it's still way too high ! Perhaps a G4 would help...
  • iMovie should import all the QuickTime codecs, not only DV stream ! An yes, the interface should be improved: using iMovie with a resolution higher than 1024*768 is just a waste of sceen space.

  • G4Dude, I've benchmarked VPC 3 & 4 on my G3. VPC 4 is faster ( I've tried Norton System Info and Sisoft Sandra) but screen redraws are painfully slow under VPC 4 so it seems slower.

  • I really hope VPC 5 is as fast on OS X as VPC 9 running on MacOS 9. It's slow on my 400MHz G3, even with 512MB

  • Seeing the keyboard, I'd bet for a G4 since this one is silver. A G3 keyboard is blue-ish.

  • Ebby, You can't use that model on a 350MHz iMac (100MHz bus, slot loading)
  • [quote]Originally posted by xmoger: I believe this feature is available on gf3 cards and up, possibly gf2. However I don't have a mac with an nvidia card around here so I don't know if it's not available. It's nice, but not a big deal. It sort…
