    New PowerMacs Mar 23 ?

    Personally, I think that Apple will hold off until the WWDC, which is held in June; that would be more realistic. It would be strange for Apple to release upgrades at this time so close to the conference, but you know Apple... Not much of a speed bump thou :( Hasn't it always been thought...

    Final Cut Pro Exporting to avi files

    I do. :) First, what you ask can not be really be done within Final Cut Pro. You need a third party compressor software that will turn you movie into a AVI. The AVI format that you want is better known as "DivX". The whole movie files that you around the Internet that are around 700MB (1...

    Quark 6.1 update

    I have updated my Quark 6 and it's seems much faster, but in all honesty, I don't use it anymore. Like so many other designers, I have moved over to InDesign, which is a hell of alot better than Quark. My printers have yet to more over to InDesign, which I can't understand why? They have just...

    G5 PowerBooks by year's end?

    With the advances in technology from month to month, here is a logical guess on what the new PowerBook G5 should roll out with: 1.6GHz G5 chip. (Less MHz than the desktop, so therefore, less heat, less power from the battery, longer batery life etc, etc, etc) 80GB Hard drive. This is...

    G5 PowerBooks by year's end?

    Personally, in my opinion, Apple will released updates to the current line this July and then release the PowerBook G5 at the MacWorld, Jan 2005. Apple will only release the PowerBook G5 at an major venue, which are only a few a year. This will generate lots of press etc. Do you think...

    Pure fucking sacrilege! (The strong language needed to be said) :mad:

    alubook update today?

    I seriously doubt it. The new updates are more likely July time. G5 PowerBooks probably be New Year 2005 and they won't be an inch thick. My two cents worth...

    Why is Halo Running Real Slow!

    Indeed. Initially, I had all the graphics setting on high and it was very sluggish. I then set the monitor to 1024x876, turn down most of the detail and turn off the dynamic lighting etc. The game now runs fine :) Machine spec below... Oh, you might want to appliy the updater as well...

    Microsoft Sues 17 Year Old Over Use of Own Name.

    Pathetic, absolutely pathetic. Typical American lawyer bullsh*t. Is that the answer to everything in the USA? Sue them? It's not like that Mike Rowe (soft) name is spelt the same as Microsoft™ is it! Ain't the USA meant to be the land of the Free, democracy and all that, and yet, if you don't...

    Quite Possibly the Dumbest Stupid Newbie Question Ever

    You answers: 1 - Does Panther truly only come on 3 CDs? (Yes, I am so neurotic that I worry that I lost the 4th, 5th and 6th CDs) Yes. MacOS X.3 comes on 3 CD's. There is also a forth disc included in the packs, but this is mainly for developers. It contains the XCode software. 2 -...

    Panther problem? Open and Save dialog boxes, slow to open...

    Dear All, I am running Panther (10.3.2) on a PowerBook G4 (Spec in sig). I have notice of the last few weeks a problem with my software that is starting to get to me. When ever I try to open or save a document within an application, the dialog boxes take quite some time to appear. In...

    Anyone seen or used this?

    Yes, I have an iSight. No, I will not buy the flexable stand. I have a PowerBook G4, and the iSight clips nicely on the lid, thank you Apple. I can see the attraction if you have a CRT monitor and don't want to use the 'stick-on' stand that is supplied with the iSight. Nice price as well...

    Dear Admiral, Thank you for going in to more depth on your specfics. This helps. I have read all your comments and it seems to be a classic Firewall port numbers closed case. Ok, you said that iChat works on your desktop, but it won't for long. I too was under the impression that the Beta...

    iChat problem

    Dear Admiral, Let me get this straight so that there is no confusion: 1. You have a PowerBook (new) and a desktop Mac, in effect two machines? 2. The desktop Mac can connect to the iChat network and such alike? 3. You want to set up the PowerBook so that you can access the iChat stuff...

    Jedi Academy

    Jedi Academy is a blinding game for the Macintosh. Runs a dream on my TiPB 1GHz. (Spec in sig) Multi-player is a dream to play, either with the AI bots, which, in my opinion are easy. The real jewel in the crown is playing other Jedi people. I thought I was good until I played the pros...
