Hello people! I just today purchased a shiny new iBook G4. I have a quick Q though: When you buy a mobile phone, I've always been told that you should do a long, 12-hour charge the first time you use it or the battery will not hold as much life. Does this hold true with an iBook...

This may be a stupid question, but what the hell. How can it be said that monitors all run at 72 or 100dpi - I thought dpi was dependant on resolution. How can a 17" monitor that is running at 800x600 be said to have the same dpi as a 17" monitor running at 1024x768 or more? Wouldn't a...

definately, and I couldn't be happier about it. Problem is there are a lot of people out there who don't realise there is even another option out there other than IE. These are usually causal computer users, like people who only use it for work or for email etc. There are a lot of people...

I'd like to talk about Microsoft Internet Explorer's, shall we say, "quirky" support of Cascading Style Sheets. I think it's extremely irresponsible that Microsoft has refused to fully support CSS. I read an article recently that claimed Microsoft has again said they will not aim to fully...

thanks guys, that was great help. Looks like the best option is MacDrive, downloading trial version now. Never knew of it before, but sounds like exactly what I need. And thanks Ghost for the info about >4GB files on FAT32, seeing as I would mostly be transferring very large DV files for...

I have an External HDD that is formatted using Mac OS Extended, which my PC won't read. I would love to be able to use it on both, because I often do huge transfers between them and have to use DVDs to do so. Is there a way I can allow it to be read on both (perhaps an application for Windows XP...

what a bunch of poo. somehow I thought that it was going to happen (at least a HL2 port anyway), been a few months since the last posting on this forum, since then they have ported it to xbox...i donno. now that I type it out loud is does sound pretty hopeless. i especially thought so tho...

I read a thread on MacOSX.com about the old CS, and how they going to release the original CS on the Mac but decided not to at the last minute :mad: But what about CS Source? could it happen? Just imagine...

thanks for that guys. sorry about posting links - wasn't thinking ::angel:: I hadn't thought of using Linux players through Fink (have never done it before, but can't be too hard). So if i find an update for my exact drive, it would be safe (providing I don t do any stupid like turn...

true true, you certainly can't complain considering it is free, and good point about an included game needing to have universal appeal lol @ solitaire for 12 years. I wonder what will be in Longhorn...Wolfenstein perhaps!?.

So for the last couple years I have been addicted to Amazon.com. Living in Australia, I cannot get many of the DVDs I want (especially TV Shows). So 2 years, and thousands of dollars later, I have a stack of Region 2 DVDs (as well as many Region 4 from when I buy local). I think you see...

but does it have the same level of functionality as JAWS etc? 'read under mouse' sounds like it just reads whatever you point it at...pretty useless if you can't see the cursor to begin with. I mean, do you think you could (reletively) easily turn on a mac and surf the web if you were completely...

good call Mikuro. certainly looks like what I want, and more! :)

As I understand it Tiger introduces a free Screen Reader, "voice over". If this does everything a screen reader like JAWS can, then I think that alone is enough to make Tiger a milestone release. Stand-alone screen-readers cost $1000+ on their own, and being Apple you just know it will blow...

We've all seen them by now. Just when you thought that sleazy, obvoxious, intrusive form on internet advertising - the Pop-Up window - had finally bitten the dust with anti-pop ups becoming standard on most browsers. Now comes its more evil, more sneaky cousin - the pop-down window. When I...

Great game? really? Visually it is stunning, but the gameplay was very thin. I got sick of it very quickly. I mean, collecting eggs for hours and hours? Seems to me it's a glorified Atari 2600 game.

yea I think you're right Zammy-Sam :( couldn't find mac version in any of those links (much appreciated tho HomunQlus).

I'm interested to know how my iMac will handle Doom 3 (god knows my PC almost blew up!). Anyone know where (or if) I can download a demo version? Been looking for ages and can't seem to find it.

Well, I took the risk and bought it anyway. Luckily, you CAN program TV shows manually (i figured as much. Be pretty useless if you couldn't). EyeTV absolutely rocks! It's a really good quality product, not one of those gimmicky products they throw together without thinking everything...

I've been looking at the EyeTV 200 for my iMac. From what i've read I'm convinced it's a great buy. I have just one concern that I hope EyeTV owners can answer for me. I have read all about their Electronic Programming Guide available to easily program TV shows. However this is only...
