    Computer makers sued over hard-drive size claims

    That is the truest statement. One unfortunate (mis)conception of the USA is that one can never, ever underestimate the intelligence of the american buying public. Whatever happened to good old solid intelligent people that take responsibility for their own actions?

    No more PowerBook... now we play the waiting game...

    :) I was waiting for someone to pick that up - check out http://forum.rpc1.org/viewtopic.php?p=68275 It apparently works on most 15" and all 12" Superdrives, makes cd burning faster and enables a host of other features on your drive that were hobbled by Apple. obviously at your own risk (and...

    No more PowerBook... now we play the waiting game...

    insurance - no :mad: backup - yes (one week old, full backup of entire Home directory) :D if anyone doesn't have a portable LaCie drive coupled with Synchronise Pro, they should definately get themselves one... police - about as useful as tits on a bull. these things just disappear...

    PB12 vs PB15

    http://www.bookendzdocks.com/bookendz/be03g412.htm 12" powerbook dock - however it just replicates the ports, doesn't add anything new or useful... kind of silly really...

    PB12 vs PB15

    - Powerbook 12 screen is definately brighter and nicer than iBook, and on par with 15" - Graphics-wise, the 15" kicks the 12" all over town (Ghost Recon is crappy in 12", smooth as silk on 15") - Widescreen is certainly much nicer - 12" MUCH MUCH MUCH more portable. MUCH. HEAPS...

    Buy.com Music Store (the mighty merging of 3 threads)

    1. buymusicsucks.com is quite crude, and unfortunately neither slick nor clever. buymusic.com does indeed suck, but i could be conveyed a little more convincingly... 2. the music industry has it's head up it's arse. i want radiohead - the bends. I can either pay $8.90 for NINE out of the...

    FireWire 2, USB 2 - When on Macintosh?

    this thread is a moot point. usb 2 is obviously going to be included on every new upgrade from herein, and firewire 800 is presumably only going to be on the Pro lineup. ya? (i say obviously, because it is impossible to source usb1.1 controllers anymore - check out the slashdot thread when...

    Download music and prepare to pay..Starting 25Jun03

    the main drama is this: record companies failed miserably to identify this incredible shift in markets in their industry. there are very few industries that have been impacted by technology - think about the major players (ebay, amazon). even though these services are out there, people still...
