    Rhapsody on Virtual PC

    I have a disk image of Rhapsody DR 2 for Power Macintosh. I don't know if it works or not but the image mounts fine. Personally I'd like to get my hands on Rhapsody for Intel so I could use it with VPC.

    New keyobard and mouse!

    I have an Apple Pro Mouse and a Microsoft whatever two button mouse and I don't ever use the MS mouse because I don't care about the two buttons! Even with Windows I don't use the right button often. If I need to use a contextual menu with Mac OS I always have my left hand near the control key...

    15" lcd is not same as 17" crt so stop

    A 15 inch LCD has an optimal resolution of 1024x768, the same as a 17 inch CRT. Any higher than 1024x768 on a 17 inch CRT and everything is too small or, on most 17 inch CRT's, the refresh rate is so low it is unusable. So you get the same resolution on a 15 inch LCD as a 17 inch CRT. All LCD's...

    WHY is window resizing so slow still in macos x and so fast in Windows 2000?

    If you use Windows XP you will notice that live window resizing is just about as bad or worse than OS X 10.1.

    Services Menu

    What exactly is the use for the services menu? When I am using Word, the Finder!!, and almost all other apps the services menu is disabled. For example I wanted to mount a disk image in the finder. I click finder -> services -> disk copy and mount image is not available. It seems like it is a...

    Poll: PC and/or Mac users in this forum?

    I use Windows XP and Mac OS 9.2/10.1. My desktop is a PC and my laptop is an iBook. So I get the best of both worlds. I like Mac OS better since it is easier to use and doesn't lock up or do something it is not supposed to. I also have an emate running Newton OS 2.1, a PocketPC with PPC OS...

    I still dont understand...

    Actually the name Windows came from an OS called X-Windows. X-Windows was not copyrighted so Microsoft stole the name. I believe there was a lawsuit over that issue.

    I paid an authorized service center to do it. You need to take the entire iBook apart to get at it.

    iBook G3 Performance Question

    I replaced the original Apple 10 GB hard drive with a 20 GB IBM Travelstar HD. I notice a significant increase in performance. The models at the store are base models and they have been used and abused.

    Battery time on TiBook in 10.1 vs. 9

    I notice this problem as well. I am sure Apple will address this issue in a future update. After the 10.0.4 update I was getting about 20-30 minutes more out of my battery than with 10.0.

    iBook screen size

    I read something saying that the increase in performance is only 10%. When I went to buy the new iBook I noticed they had the DVD 500 MHz model $500 off (Canada). I picked one of those up instead. I love it! Although I can't wait until they put my 20 GB hard drive in it and a lot more RAM. I...
