I second that— I had a similar problem and bought a new battery that I found through froogle.com for much less than Apple's cost.

The problem in a nut-shell: - iBook G3 locked in boot-up process indefinitely - disk utility failed to fix problem - erased HDD "by zeros" with no errors - installed Tiger while in target mode and from another iBook - same problem ocurred, unchanged, after reboot So...

I'm working on a C++ program using Project Builder, and I came across something really odd. When running the executable in Unix, I receive a bus error. After some intense sluthing, I discovered where the problem occurs: an if statement that only uses variables (ie if((x > y) || (x < y)){ )...

After a little experimentation, it had to do with how the Unix shell was starting. I just had to go into the Terminal preferences and tell it to log in with the command 'bin/tcsh' instead of logging into 'usr/bin/login,' and the executable would run in its native folder.

I've been working on a Unix program in Project Builder, and everything has, for the most part, worked fine. However, I cannot figure out how to tell the executable to run files from the same directory. Instead, it keeps looking in my user home folder as the active directory. How can I change...

Do 802.11g devices have a better range than 802.11b devices? Other than that, after doing extensive research on router problems and etc, would this be a suitable configuration? --- 333 MHz iMac ---...

I decided to look for a reliable, cheap, 802.11g router, but I keep running into problems. For instance, the Netgear WGR614 seemed like a leap over Linksys, yet I found a staggering number of bad reviews for the router. Though there were a few who had no problems, or were able to solve them...

Cool beans! Also, 802.11g is reverse compatible with 802.11b devices, correct? And does anyone know if ethernet-power adapters (the things that turn an ethernet signal into 110V power and visa versa) are any good?

I was thinking of getting a 802.11b wireless+wired router for my home network and have been looking around for some good picks. So far, one of the best (and prettiest) routers appears to be the NetGear MR814. It's got what I need: WPA, WEP, 4 ethernet jacks, etc. I am NOT touching a Linksys...

Yeah, this is a very sticky issue-- the Vermont company created a design that is very basic, and, therefore, effectively has the right to do whatever it wants to whosoever infringes on their patent. If you look closely, Winamp and Windows Media Player have interfaces different enough from...

If it were just the case of companies "staying away" from the new guy, then AMD would not have formerly enjoyed a 20% stake in Sony's graces. The reason why anti-trust laws are in place is to allow companies to compete by fair means and keep the consumer market rich in choices and fair prices...

I definitely agree. EV NOVA is an incredible improvement on an already great series, but prepare for a time-consuming game. There are at least 7 (or 8?) possible storylines plus a multitude of plot forks, and not to mention some neat easter-eggs (*cough* wormholes *cough*). Unlike the other...

It was not too long ago that I lost the network connection between my iBook and my home LAN, and it may be awhile before I look back to Lynksis for a router. The router mocked me, I swear it, because every computer on that network, a G3 iMac and Dell PC, could access it. There were no changed...
