I'm selling my Visor Prism for $215. If you're interested, check it out here: Visor Prism @ Half.com Thanks

I have a Beige G3 with Mac OS 10.1.3, and the internal floppy drive doesn't seem to work. I put in a disk, but nothing happens. I've heard thought that external floppies work in OS X... is there a way to get the internal one to work?

Nah, far from it ;) . Hmm... one tidbit of info: you have to turn down the graphics a bit (lower quality) to get it to run decently. And, in the requirements for OS X I believe it says you need a 16MB Video card, but my 8MB worked fine - it didn't even mention it.

I LOVE this game. It's one of the best I've ever played. Despite some of the word I've heard about it on older computers, it runs fine on my iMac 400MHz 8MB/ATi RAge 128 (384 RAM). It's probably the best built OS X game I've played - incredibly stable. And, the game play is amazing (as well as...

Does that work even if the computer is out of applecare?

I was wondering if anyone had any tips for promoting sites. I've tried search engines, signatures, etc. and all to no avail. I know it's hard to promote sites that consist mostly of forums, but there must be a successful way. Any advice? Thanks!

Hi folks, I was hoping someone could help fix this annoying problem. I have a Surfboard SB3100 Cable Modem and a Belkin 4port gateway (which is also used as a hub to fileshare, etc.) Every so often (somedays never in a day, sometimes every 10 minutes) the Cable Modem gets "disconnected" from...

Actually, I'd love to hear the answer as I have the same problem. And while we're at it... anyone know what to do about getting the DVD fixed/replaced? Thanks

It has one built in, but without a 3rd party app, you have to get really techincal (ie. you have to use the command line). I would highly recommend the application "Brick House". It can be found at www.versiontracker.com. Not only does it support NAT (Network Adderess Translation - the...

Ok, after launching a few apps, I relaunched AIM after my hard disk had spun down. It launched without the hard disk spinning up! This makes me think that the app was fully cached in the RAM. If so, how eager is OS X to give up that RAM and give it to another app? Just wondering, because after 6...

I've never tried connecting to a Samba server, but with Appletalk and TCP/IP connections, I get a box for a username and password, and there's a button that says "options". When clicked, there is a checkbox in the window that "Allow Cleartext Password". Now I'm not sure how Samba works, but...

Try shutting down your computer, and, while holding down command, option, and p, r, turn on the computer. Let it reboot twice, and then let go. You'll loose a few settings (like date and time, map (os 9), resolution, and a few others like keyboard). This should work, and then you can change it...

It was in 10.0.4? Weird, I don't remember it. I does seem like there were more options in 10.0.4, but maybe that's just because they changed the layout of the get info screen.

As far as I've been able to tell, that's the best you can do. If you make the icons the smallest setting, then they will be a bit closer together, that may just be my eyes though. ;) This may be a good thing to tell Apple though... I'll tell them when I send them my weekly feedback (well...
