    Funny: guy proposing on latest apple.com timelapse

    ? Just because of the context. He's using the Apple Store's web cam to propose to his girlfriend. He apparently got up at the crack of dawn to do it; the sun hasn't been up for long when he first appears. And because you don't expect to see any such thing on the Apple web page. His...

    Can I make a 1st Gen airport base station act like a wireless adapter?

    In a nutshell... I currently have a nice Linksys 802.11 b/g connected to my cable modem. I also have an old first-generation Airport Base station (single ethernet port). I was thinking - wouldn't it be cool if I could connect the Airport Base station to the ethernet port of my videogame...

    MacWorld Announcements

    Ok, so what does this mean: Pardon my ignorance but - "Machine Park" ? Is "park" a noun or verb in that sentence? And "UNTIL the end of 2006?" Not "BY the end?"

    Can you buy internal bluetooth for a G5 - not BTO?

    Me, I ended up just buying the D-Link adapter. I had a free USB port on the back of my display, so I just put it there.

    Can you buy internal bluetooth for a G5 - not BTO?

    Yeah, there are. But the way I have things set up, USB ports aren't that plentiful at the moment. But, if the alternative is to take the CPU in for service, I may go that route anyway.

    Prayers and best wishes to members in Texas and Louisiana

    I just read that Wall Street rallied on the news that hurricane Rita was downgraded to Category 4. :confused: What a total JOKE! Ask people in Biloxi or Gulfport how tame a Cat 4 is. I guess that's why those guys are stock traders and not meteorologists. Rita reportedly reached a...
