    Roxio Popcorn

    I've been useing Popcorn since it came out. Great product- and no, in my experience it does not re compress files that will already fit on a single layer DVD unless you choose main movie only, just goes straight to burn like Toast does. There were issues with playback on some brands of players...

    SMC Wireless Router and USB printing

    My linksys router finally gave up on me, so when I was at CompUSA last night I found and purchased a SMC Barricade g router with built in print server. Says that the router is Mac friendly,and installed easily on all the router functions-except- the printer server. They have no setup...

    A PC after Apple's Heart

    This computer was reviewed on The Screensavers tonight (12-19). I guess the conspiracy goes deeper than we all know!

    Sidekick Anyone

    I'm sure lusting after one now. Need to see it in person to know for sure if I'll pay the $300.00 to change my phone over. Does it feel well built? I need something that may have to take a beating. If there becomes a way to sync with iCal/ Address then I'll probably be sold.

    I Broke My iBook!

    No idea on what may be broke, but as to where to take it to get checked- Uh.....MadMac?(or Mac Docs) Both are great with customer service and fairly reasonable.

    Connecting Newton 2000 with OS X

    there is a product called "NewTen" that will allow you to install packages under OSX, and it will work with a few USB adapters, but your data dosen't show up in finder- it doesn't mount the Newton as a HD or other device. This is from the last time I checked into this (it's been a few months)...

    Connecting Newton 2000 with OS X

    Yes, it does... but only through classic. You still have to use Newton Connection Utilities (NCU). There are a few newton developers that are working on a OSX only solution, but it isn't there yet. The only utilities that have been written for OSX are package installers as far as I know.

    Connecting Newton 2000 with OS X

    If you can get a supported network card then that is without a doubt the best way to connect to your mac. it can run either through the computer directly or through a router/hub. Go to newtontalk.net and search for the list on supported cards. I got my card off of ebay for about $15.00...

    A good multibutton mouse for X ?

    I've always had good luck with the Kensington Mice (mouses) also. The new Studiomouse by Kensington looks promising too. They designed it to fit with Macs specifically. Check it out.
