    Apple Store shows a G5 ad

    For the record; the screenshot that Izzy put up is real. I saw the website and it was really there. There was no manipulation on the screen shot. I do believe someone hacked the Apple site. I hope the description of the new machine isn't real, because they're talking PPC rather than 970. 3...

    apple.com down?

    Check out the store and select the PowerMac...at the top of the page listing the PowerMacs is a very interesting item about a G5 powered Dual 2Ghz machine...no joke. It's gotta be a hack...but a good one!

    Apple Store shows a G5 ad

    Go to the Apple Store and select the PowerMacs...the top of the page shows some amazing stuff under the heading, "Choose your PowreMac G4". It goes on to say, "The world's fastest personal computer. 1.6Ghz, 1.8Ghz, or Dual 2Ghz PowerPC G5 Processors." It goes on from there, but it's gotta...

    FCP 4.0 arrived!

    Just got an Airborne Express delivery of FCP 4.0. Haven't looked at it yet, but will surely do it tonight. Anyone opened the app yet?

    Need a new printer

    I agree that the Epson printers seem to clog up pretty frequently. I'm on my 4th Epson, because I like the quality of the print, itself. However, the Stylus Color 980 that I'm using is driving me nuts with clogs and warmups... Not only are the printers kind of aggravating in regard to...

    AAC conversion to AIFF or MP3

    Thanks for all the help...yep, converted the AAC to CDA, and the CDA to MP3, so the Nomad is back in the game, and the purchased music is playable in the car's CD deck. Life is Good!

    G4's and harddrive capacity

    Nope, never tried a CPU upgrade card, nor would I. The RAID card works really well.

    G4's and harddrive capacity

    I appreciate the reply, but the firewire cases are good for the capacity of the drives. The 200 gb drive works flawlessly. The 250 gb, which has the same brand case, but with an advertised >250 gb capacity does work, but takes itself out of the picture from time to time. The Sonnet card...

    G4's and harddrive capacity

    I have run into a sort of problem with harddrives. My G4 Dual 450 has a 100mhz bus, and won't support harddrives with capacities greater than 120gb, I believe. The problem is, I have 6 harddrives on this machine now...a 40gb, 80gb, and a Sonnet striped raid set consisting of 2 - 120gb drives...

    Hard Drive Advice....

    The IBM Deskstar is a great drive. I find Western Digital just fine, as well. Use both of them.

    Data Cd Burning

    MP3's are actually data files. I use Toast, and simply copy the file as a data file. The MP3 car player is really just reading the files as your computer would.

    Cloning bootdrives

    I'd like to copy my current bootdrive onto a much larger drive. Any recommendations for a nice, clean, flawless copying app? Thanks, Pish

    Replace combo drive with a super drive in an iMac?

    The install is easy if you have written instructions. Figuring out how to take things out of the G4 is not all that intuitive. I have directions, but they are not digital, and I don't have a website for you to get the data from. I'm sure someone on this forum will, though. It's...

    Replace combo drive with a super drive in an iMac?

    I installed the Pioneer DVR A04, which is recognized by the Mac as a DVR 104. Guess there the same thing, but the bottom line is the install was easy and it worked right off the bat. This is an old Dual G-4 which came out before the SuperDrive. Piece of cake; flawless; records DVD's or CD's...

    Desktop organization

    Undoubtedly this is a rookie question, but I haven't figured out how to stabilize the icons on my desktop. It seems they love to rearrange themselves, and often open on top of existing icons...sometimes many layers deep. How do I make the icons remain organized as I want them to? Sometimes...

    Bootdrive is full

    Thank you for the suggestion, but even selecting the external firewire drive from Preferences, (which does the same thing that you suggested) won't allow the system to boot. The process starts, but then a little kernel type message appears during the boot process (upper left corner of the...

    Well... it's the 28th :D

    How will I change my 5600 songs from MP3 to AAC, if I'd like everything in the same format? There is one downside to this...how many automobile setups support AAC? Probably zero. So, alternatively, how do we convert AAC to MP3?

    Bootdrive is full

    Greetings all, I'm interested in either creating a new boot drive, or transferring apps on my current boot drive to one of my much larger secondary drives. The situation is like this; my current boot drive is a 40GB drive, but I have an 80 GB drive, and a RAID 240 GB internal config, as...
