Here is the first screenshot of my SPARCstation 10... running OPENSTEP 4.2. The shot is grayscale as I only have a grayscale display for my Suns... which is actually fine for me. It reminds me of back when I first started using NEXTSTEP. :D

I charge $35 per hour for home users, and between $50 to $75 per hour for professionals/businesses... but I've been told that I don't charge that much compared to other consultants/service people.

Neither am I... but five years seems like a long time! :eek:

Nothing eliminates this restriction as it is part of the firmware and can't be changed. As I have been (and am currently) a Wallstreet user, I can tell you from years of actual experience that Wallstreets can run Mac OS X quite nicely, and you would be better off with 10.2 than 10.3 or 10.4 do...

Just about every post I've made in this forum since late August 2002 has been done from a PowerBook G3 Wallstreet running Mac OS X v10.2. My wife's primary system for the last two years has been a PowerBook G3 Pismo running Mac OS X v10.3. Not only is it the system she does everything on, it...

That is pretty much the way it happened... and had Apple not bought NeXT, NeXT was planning on dumping their OS business altogether (moving their users to Sun) and just doing Enterprise Objects and WebObjects. But the financial end of a move to PCs is massive! For the sake of argument...

The retail versions of Mac OS X Server before 10.4.7 are PowerPC only. The current version being sold by Apple is Mac OS X Server v10.4.7 which is Universal (works with both PowerPC and Intel* based systems). Future Intel based hardware that required a newer version of Mac OS X than 10.4.7...

The best thing to do is to not waste the time putting the links in in the Word document. Microsoft doesn't want you to use PDF, they want you to use their DOC format for document exchange. Using PDF means that readers of your documents can be on any platform and don't have to buy any...

Second criteria: takeback and recycle their products responsibly once they become obsolete. Here is an odd thought... at what rate do PCs become "obsolete"? A Dell is generally headed for a landfill between 2 to 5 years after it was originally sold. On the other hand, Apple computers tend...

Some of Apple's early DVD drives tended to be a little flaky, and often just stop working. Drives aren't meant to be worked on, they are meant to be replaced whole. I've replaced 4 DVD drives for clients in the last 2 years... sadly, this isn't that uncommon (and because it is a purely...

The Mini Docks with ethernet were done by a third party company and are very rare... I haven't seen any around recently. I used the spare keyboard I had on my 2300c when I got it a few years ago because it's keyboard was sticking on a couple keys. This means that the only spare keyboard I...

The specs on my primary system: Beige G3 Mini Tower (originally a G3/266) G4 at 533 MHz with 1 MB of L2 cache 640 MB of memory ATI Radeon 7000 (with 32 MB of VRAM) Ultra ATA/66 PCI card 80 GB hard drive (connected to Ultra ATA/66 card) original CD-ROM drive (on first logic board ATA...

The ones with Mac OS 9 doesn't work with the 3400c, that is why these are out there. They are replacements... not additions.

iTunes 2.0.4 (the last release for pre-Mac OS X systems) only requires a PowerPC system running Mac OS 9.0.4 or later... there was never a USB port requirement. Infact, the only built-in USB ports or built-in Firewire ports that pop up in any of the iTunes/iPod products is when connecting an...

Yes, Mac OS 9 isn't really compatible with the PowerBook 3400c... but there are ways to fix the issues. The parts you need can be found here.

Well, there is a number of page layout apps for Mac OS X... going from most expensive to least: QuarkXPress 7 ($749.95) Adobe InDesign ($699.95) Canvas X ($349.99) Ready, Set, Go! ($175.00) Stone Design Create ($149.00) AppleWorks ($79.00) Pages ($79.00) Swift Publisher ($35.00)...

I'll second that... the only thing that even comes close to having those abilities is Illustrator... and even then you'll be limited to single pages. The format really wasn't designed to be read/write... it was designed to be read-only. PDFs are a distribution format, where the original...

In the Keynote it sure looks like they are talking about hooking up an external firewire or USB 2.0 drive for use with Time Machine... even a second internal drive could be used. The main back up takes place once... and then everything else is done on the fly as files change (with a time...

So I just went to my 20th high school reunion (about a month ago actually), but they put up a site with images from our yearbook (I lost mine more than 10 years ago, so I hadn't seen those images in a long time). Anyways, this is what I looked like more than two decades ago. :D

Yeah, but I poopoo both Camino and Safari... as I think the only real Mac-like browser is OmniWeb! :D That having been said, I actually use Firefox more than Safari. I really think that X11 has been an easy out for some developers. It has given them the ability to ignore the Mac and still say...
