    Airport Cards (non-extreme)

    Is it the exact same size as the Apple Airport card? Does it fit in the Airport Card slot? If we have an option other than the card made by Apple, I'd love to get one. I'd rather have one that fits into the builtin space as opposed to a third party PCI card.

    Wireless Connection Problem

    Welcome to the MacOSX.com community! What system are you running and what are the specs on the PowerBook. Is it an airport or airport extreme card? Have you updated the drivers for Airport Extreme if an extreme card? There are quite a few software udpates out there if you haven't done an...

    Renewing .Mac account, question.

    If you don't have a credit card, why not use a debit card? You'll have to have some kind of plastic to use to renew your account. It's impossible to do any commercial activities online without plastic. Goodluck.

    T-Mobile GPRS Powerbook

    I've got a bluetooth phone and I have used the GPRS with T-Mobile. The speed varied based on how good my signal strength was. You will have to upgrade your plan to unlimited data, $20/mo. Another option would be to signup for T-Mobile hotspots if you're travels will keep you close to Starbucks...

    Booting a Pismo from an external drive

    I had the same problem. I went almost 2 years without an internal drive. Mine broke as well. I used a firewire CD-RW drive to boot from and install OS 10.3. I don't know about a USB drive, but if that fails and Firewire drive is your answer. FYI I purchased a replacement drive, CD-RW on ebay...

    remote to control AirTunes/AirPort Express!!!

    Earphoria is another great remote control for iTunes. 100% Cocoa. I use my powerbook to control the music on my Powermac with it. http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/18202 While not as feature rich as iHam on iRye, it is very simple and easy to use.

    Airport Cards (non-extreme)

    I know I may need one for my PowerMac G4, but I may just opt for the Linksys 802.11g PCI card. Luckily I've already got one for my wife's ibook and my pismo. 3rd party cards are a definite alternative for Powermac G3 and G4s.

    Airport Cards (non-extreme)

    The issue of supply and demand has caught up with those of us with older macs needing the old airport cards. There is a fixed supply of airport cards since Apple no longer makes them and a greater demand because of the rapid spread of wireless networking. Hence the rising prices on ebay...

    "support@mac.com" email virus?

    My father got it and freaked. He uses it for his business and was pissed that problems might exist with his account. I had already read this post and knew he had received this fake. So many non-computer people are clueless. That's why these virii are so successful at spreading.

    ISP with satellite/cable TV service?

    ...Only if you are broadcasting would it be illegal. However if you are simply recording for personal use, I doubt there would be an issue. But what you wanted was for an ISP or someone to record it and offer it freely via the web which would in essence be a type of public broadcast. Of course...

    ISP with satellite/cable TV service?

    Anything broadcast by NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX, or other public stations (except for mayber PBS) would be illegal to retransmit. However if all you are asking is for someone to record a tv show or two so you can watch it later, I doubt that would be too much of a problem. Afterall whats the difference...

    iLife '04: Don't waste your money

    No I haven't forgotten. But serious musicians and production teams don't use programs like garageband or even soundtrack for that matter. They use professional programs like Pro Tools. Everyone that I know who owns a Mac has a digital camera too. So I would disagree. I think iPhoto is more...

    Apple to be debt-free

    From a financial stand point I really don't see the point. There is nothing wrong with that debt. Nearly every company, albeit Microsoft, has debt. Should they ever need to aquire more debt later it may have a larger negative effect for them to go from no debt to having debt rather than having...
