I have Zoo Tycoon (gotta love those maneating penguins ...). If it helps at all, it runs really well on mine: I have a dual 1.2GHz G4 and I've had no problems when things get crowded, unlike SimCity 4 and some Tropico scenarios, which can get very choppy.

This is a known issue with InDesign; check out the ID forum at http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx?14@@.ee6b330 where it's a sticky thread.

Thanks for the tip, slo – I just decided yesterday not to renew mine because of so many problems with Backup, which would be my main reason for keeping it on. It works, it doesn't work, it works, it doesn't work – too flaky to keep paying for.

Of course. It's a special treat for our coming of age ceremony - along with painting ourselves with woad. (Hence the expression 'having one for the woad ...'.)

Hey, watch it ... we have specially made wooden ones.

This is just what I wanted to hear. None of my usual online stores has it, which is a shame, but I found somewhere that has it for £20 less than on the Logitech site, so I reckon that's a good omen. ;)

I've spent the weekend gazing admiringly at the image and review of the Logitech Cordless Desktop MX in this month's MacFormat and rationalising why I need a new keyboard and mouse ...:cool: Has anyone got one? If so, what do you think of it? Does it do what it says on the tin? Is it 'plug...

I'm in the UK - mine's fine.

Well, yes, but won't you lose them anyway if you reinstall the system?

Did you trash the preferences? You don't mention it, so if not, try that next.

I just tried to install the Acrobat 6 upgrade on my dp G4, running 10.2.6. Not only couldn't I install it fully - it crashed every time I tried to enter the serial number - but now my finder's wigged out. Every time I try to access the 'Apple' menu in the top menu bar, the finder crashes. I...

OK guys - go and have a look at a music video channel for a while. Notice any difference in the way women are dressed to the way men are dressed? Wonder who that's meant to appeal to most (if in doubt, check out the 'I never wanted to buy power tools more' thread, just as a single example)...

MacGold – http://www.macgold.co.uk/. Excellent service, free delivery, and always seem to be able to be able to get the latest game quickly, sometimes on a special order before anyone else in the UK. If they didn't exist, I'd have to invent them.

scmca, I'd echo RacerX's point about InDesign. I made the switch to OS X on the back, so to speak, of also switching to InDesign and, despite some teething problems with both, not regretted it. I'm a typesetter so my requirements are slightly different, of course, and Photoshop doesn't figure in...

I think you'll find that was the title, not the chapters.

You're not, and he was, and his death remains a great loss. I was given The Salmon of Doubt for Christmas, which was bits and pieces in progress, taken off his beloved Mac - he was a great Mac evangelist. It's got the beginning chapters of a new Dirk Gently adventure which shows that he was...

So we did! I'm shy ....

Trying to remember back that far to when I installed mine (all of six months), that sounds right – OSX will detect the new card. If you need to (i.e. if you find nothing's happening), set up a new location in System Software/Network and you should be up and running.

I wasn't able to install Livin' Large in Classic - I had to reboot into 9. If the updates don't work, you can reboot into 9 from System Preferences/Startup Disk. I only had to do that with LL - all the other expansion packs have been fine in Classic.

Which system are you running when you try and install? I got the same message when I tried to install via Classic running OS X, but it was fine when I rebooted into OS 9.
