Considering the fact that VPC has many years of development optimization under it's belt, unless someone huge had an emulator in the works with tons of money behind it, you probably can't beat VPC. There was another one for a short time, that just emulated the chip and you had to install your...

Last night when I got home, and remembered, I DLed and installed Qemu and QemuX. However I was never able to get anything to work. When I tried using my Win98 disc, it just kept telling me that it was doing something and spinning and spinning but nothing happened. I also tried a linux...

People are always quick to say "Maya". Which is fine, but Maya is not consumer level priced nor consumer level usably-friendly. What kind of budget do you have? Are you a student of any kind who qualifies for an academic discount? Are you a pro who is willing to invest the money or a dabbler...

Tried Ebay? I see 2 on there expiring today that fit your needs and budget.

The static IP is a good thing. It means that you are one step closer to being in control of your host capabilities. However I do want to remind you that security is a big issue with a host and if you are not prepared you can get blindsided easily. There are so many jerks out there who are doing...

I was also thinking about the idea of a dock. Not just for cars but also for home. I bring my mini to work sometimes and it's a pain to fish all the cables from behind my G4 that fall after I unplug it. They used to have the DuoDock laptops, wonder if they are scared of the dock idea now.

You could have but the info for qemuX says it will do the whole shooting match for you. What OS are you trying to install with it? 98? 98SE? XP HE? XP Pro? I will have to try it when I get home and see what happens.

Are you using QemuX to do the install for you or installed Qemu first by itself?

Sounds like for the time being you need to be somewhat tech saavy to install it and use it. But the benchmarks are not bad. I have a PC at home but wouldn't mind testing it for kicks. Couldnt hurt to try. Let us know how it goes if you do!

j2603 - You can always just try it and if it works great, if not, find out what went wrong and work around it. Adonsa - the IP depends on what IP you are provided. Most likely it changes everytime your connection is reinstated (PPPoE or whatever). To give people access, you would need to...

Nice! Just the first of many of these kinds of installs I'm sure. Waiting for the mount kits to appear with the whole shooting match already made for ya. Think about it. THere are alot of tuners who spend $2000 on a DVD player for their car. This guy got a whole computer for that kind of...

I was under the impression that AppleScript can be easily moved to Xcode and then enhanced, so I was offering that up as a possible idea towards the end mentioned.

299? Holy Snikeys! I'd at least look thruy and weed out the ones that might be less stellar before choking FF with them.

I read this earlier and did some digging. I believe that it can be done without too much scripting. However I am not a AS person, so I cannot tell you how. As far as I know, everything in the Finder is scriptable, including all menus, popups, contentuals etc. Have you tried digging around...

This thread raises some interesting questions about what we back up and how safe it really is. I have used pretty much every kind of storage there is out there over the years in one form or another... Floppies (the big and small ones), HD, CD, DVD, DVD-RAM (those cartridge suckers), Zip...

On the Windows side of things, I usually use Symantec's CleanSweep to monitor all installs and remove everything when needed. It's really too bad we don't have that on the Mac. In the old days of the Mac OS, installing was usually just a matter of trashing the application's folder and...

Well, essentially to do so you will need to rip the video back off the disc. You can do this with any number of utilities out there, I prefer Handbrake. (free!) Keep in mind that most of these utilities convert the video to something more managable than DV such as Xvid/Divx/mpeg4. So the quality...

Qion - Never too young to do good design. Don't let your age bother you, I have seen some amazing artists/designers who were just kids with nowhere but up to grow! I'm still amazed when I see some of the complexity and depth that the younger graphic designers produce. Lots of skills out there...

It's really kind of shocking how few wireless networks out there are protected. I have firmly believed since it first was made available that the products should force you to password protect/wep your network by default. And that you should have to specifically unlock it and read a notice that...

Yes, Snapzpro is excellent. I used it ages ago to capture video game footage for a review and it worked swimmingly. Another option would be to run it out via TV output to a VCR or similar.
