Here's a quick list of games I play(ed) with my iBook G3 800 R7500 32 MB with no problems at all: [ranked by coolness] - SW Jedi Knight II - Medal Of Honor - Heavy Metal - FAKK2 - Giants: Citizen Kabuto - Aliens v Predator - Diablo II - Starcraft - SW Battlegrounds - ST: Elite Force...

I agree with RacerX. And if HP and IBM really wanted to sell an 80%-Mac OS X compatible PC, thay just could build a Darwin-powered G5. I wonder anyway what would happen to the OS market if Apple started selling an x86 packaged version of Darwin 8 (aligned with 10.4 and BSD 5.5, Linux...

If it just could loose its monitor and sport a REAL, upgradeable AGP slot!

By the time Office 2004 will arrive, Macs will be almost completely gone from the publishing company where I work. Reason number 1: journalists are poor at languages, and MS has left us Italians without a localized version of Office for two iterations of the software (Office 2001 and Office...

<Aspyr has been forced to examine copy protection for Macs.> Better late than never... instead of crying, they could implement copy-protection schemes just like I've seen on the PC in the past 5 years. Serious thieves will keep on stealing (I know people on the PC who don't own a single piece...

Almost an year ago I heard about ST Micro's interest in buying all the chip-manufacturing and chip-R&D activities of Motorola... BTW, now I'll be trying to convince my girlfrined to sell her 500 Mhz iceBook... but what about the look? The new iBooks are all plastic, and frankly do not have...

Sorry, but here it doesn't work. I too put an object (Tordek the dwarven fighter) on a key, then pressed return 5 minutes later. No crash. But since I was there trying, I tried command+alt+del, and discovered that escapepod (an Ambrosia software utility) can force-quit the password protected...

I looked at the G3 introduction timeline, and discovered it took more than 11 months for the new chip to appear on a consumer model - that happened to be the original iMac. So I don't think we will see a G5 iMac before september 2004, but I'm quite sure that by then we will get it. In the...

In my sig you can only see the Macs I still own... the complete list was: Philips MSX [Ms BASIC] Mac Plus [System 5] Mac SE [System 6] Mac LC III [System 7.1] Mac LC III+ [System 7.1] Olivetti P120 laptop (aka Schifezzolo) [BeOS 5.1] PowerMac G3 333 [Mac OS 8.5 to OS 9.x] iBook 500...

Think about 2 things: 1) Macs have not sold well in general PC stores since the original (Bondi Blue) iMac rolled out. A lot of PC stores balked at Apple recent trade agreement, and anyway their salespersons are not overly motivated to sell Macs. 2) Apple still owns the Power Computing brand...

Giaguara, WHERE are you from? ::alien:: The minimum wage in Italy is 900 € (cent more cent less) in ANY established company both in the North and in the South. And discriminating IS strongly forbidden: maybe there is a "lower" glass ceiling for women in Italy than in other countries, but...

They could, but I doubt it. With IBM moving to the top spot, Apple will gradually phase out Motorola, until we will have G4s on portables and G6s on desktops (like it has happened with G3s and G4s)... then Motorola will make the NEXT BIG CHIP and it will move back to the desktop and so on and on...

Try looking on www.edgaronline.com. Apple SEC filings are over there. Last time I looked, Japan was the second market for Apple, followed by UK, France, Canada...

As I once wrote in another thread (don't know where), I guess Apple will call future PPC 970 machines 'G6', skipping a generation (G5 is now something of an urban legend, not a real processor, with a lot of bad feelings about it). Just a guess, remember... And PPC chips were developed by...

I think this is the most incredible point of the rumor. I could understand FireWire 800 support, but to include a feature in an Apple product (even in its Win version) that can't be used with/has no counterpart on a Macintosh is really... well, incredible. Unless Apple plans to include USB 2.0...

Supposing your IceBook is OS 9-bootable, you'll NOT be able to have a fully functional OS 9 iBook with an "old" 9.2.2. This comes from my personal experience: going from iBook 600 to iBook 800 I moved all my hard drive with CCC, and ended with a System without video drivers and unable to sleep...

<window resizing from any side> No please... I still have nightmares of windows moving and resizing anywhere and anyway just because I tried to click in the wrong place. Two most useful things: windowshade and classes. I need them back (meanwhile, I thank Unsanity...)

If you want details, look at my sig and add a 600 Mhz Blue Dalmatian iMac (192 MB RAM) at work. BTW, all of them still working and beautiful!!!

It was about time... it didn't make any sense anymore. And no, the iBook is here to stay (at least up to 1 Ghz and maybe a true 266 Mhz frontside - that's to say about 10 months).
