    Elite!

    Thanks for all that. A friend has tried Oolite and apparently it just doesn't have the feel of Elite... Wikipedia mentions Elite 4, but at no point does anyone mention if an OSX version is being considered. I hope it is. David Braben is involved. Thanks for your replies. Rich

    Elite!

    Greetings... Does anyone remember the game "Elite"? I had it on my BBC microcomputer and on my Acorn Archimedes A3000 many moons ago, and in my opinion, no game has ever been as epic, imagination-boosting and engaging as this classic. Graphics get better and better, but this game had it...

    Cleaning Superdrive on PowerBook G4

    Thanks Al I always clean discs, but am pretty sure that on some of them some grime will survive. I guess I am unsure about: -When I do need to clean, what sort of cleaner is best? [no Radio Shacks in UK!] -Does a DVD cleaner do the same as a CD cleaner [or do you need to use both] -And...

    Cleaning Superdrive on PowerBook G4

    I have a Powerbook G4 with a Superdrive, and it dawned on me recently that I often use rental DVDs as well as CDs, and this must be bringing in a lot of foreign dirt, dust, etc. into my precious SuperDrive. My questions are: How often should I clean the Superdrive? And what should I clean...

    Spotlight / iPhoto

    Hm... That's how I change my photo names, in the dialogue box on the iPhoto screen. But Spotlight doesn't find it. I have iPhoto v4, and 10.4.3 of Tiger. I heard that v5 of iPhoto was slow and unreliable, so didn't see the point in upgrading. How odd.

    Spotlight / iPhoto

    I don't get MacTV, but do use keywords on iPhoto. None of these keywords, or photo names, come up in Spotlight. I have version 4 of iPhoto, and v.10.4.3 of OSX. Help!

    Spotlight / iPhoto

    Really? Did you change the name in iPhoto, in the dialogue box on the left of the screen? It definitely doesn't work on my machine. I have quit the program many times? How odd...? I wonder why this could be.

    Spotlight / iPhoto

    Hi there. Recently got Tiger, and am surprised to find that apparently Spotlight doesn't work with the names of photos in iPhoto. :eek: If you name a picture outside of iPhoto (ie. physically change the filename in Finder) then it will recognise it, but if you name the picture in iPhoto...

    Edirol FA101

    Hi I have just got an FA101 to use with my Powerbook G4, and when I plug it in the Powerbook starts to make this faint high pitched sound that only stops when I turn off the FA101. Everything seems to be working fine, but this is going to do my head in if I can;t stop this noise! Any ideas??

    iPhoto / Tiger problems...

    Hi I have just installed Tiger, but do not have iLife. I have a Powerbook G4 and used iPhoto v4 with it. How can I install iPhoto v4 on Tiger? I have tried to use the Install/Restore discs as advised that came with the Powerbook and they do not let me just install the iPhoto programme, they...
