  • Definately look at their ebay rating (the number right besides their ebay ID (it's in brackets). If you click on the number you can see thier feedback & if they have any negatives. Generally I only buy from people with at least (5) positive …

  • I record some music off of my satalite TV. To my understanding it's legal to record TV for personal playback right? Well I go to a music station, wait for a song I like & then record it. I have the AV Audio going straight into my mac via a AV…

  • Seems like you've already got your bases covered... If you just want a 2nd monitor for simple 2D you could always see if you can find a cheap ixmicro (I think that's how it's spelled) card from a 9600 or something. To my understanding they work we…

    in Moved: Apple Store idea that will have PC users flying over to the Mac. Comment by x704 July 2002
  • Yeah, I expect paid. Probalby $40-$50. Anything more & I think that there'll risk major public outrage in the Mac community (know I'd be angry). Personally though I think it's a mistake & something that's just going to sour the adoption o…
    in Jaguar pricing? Comment by x704 June 2002

    in Apple Buys iChat for $120,000 ? Comment by x704 May 2002
  • Another 256 MB would probably help some. Perhaps you computer just needs a restart? As far as OS X being a little slow (if your refering to the GUI) ... refer to the many Jaguar posts.
