Update: Apple has been relatively unscathed by the recent stock price drops. Today they even gained a bit bringing it very close to pre-bombing prices by only losing 2.1% since close of business Monday Sept 10, before the bombing. Other companies... Microsoft is down 6.5%. Intel is down...

Let me say something else about this... If you upgrade your 333mhz macs without purchasing new machines (by upgrade cards) you are not benefiting Apple in any way. In fact, if you are not going to buy new machines for your render farm, the best thing you could do is to sell the machines or...

My prefered is OmniWeb. I love the way that it looks, and all of the added features that come with Cocoa (like the spell check). I also use it exclusively when I code HTML.

They will not allow just anyone to come in to the Apple Store and burn the CDs. How would the employees know that you actually purchased the software if they give you free access to copy it? It is more likely that they will have a counter with pre-burned, or mass-produced CDs that we trade for...

You said that you have 30 macs G3 333mhz? I assume that this render farm is computers that your co-workers don't actually use as workstations, but as grut computers to do all of the rendering. If that is the case, then by all means go out and get PCs!!! You are right when you say that you...

There is a good website for upgrading macs at http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/ which as far as I can tell is not related to any one company. They have a large database of options available. They have a section dedicated to the pro G3 models called G3-Zone (http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/G3-ZONE/)...

I remember a few years ago, a friend of mine who was one of the Mac lab techs at School changed the desktop screen of all of the PCs in the lab to have the apple Menu Bar at the top of the screen and hid the start menu. He even went as far as to change the loading screen to "Welcome to Mac OS"...

Apple stock has fell some this morning, but was mostly stable today. It only dropped $0.38 per share or -2.19% with the last trade of the day being at $16.99 per share. Microsoft however has lost 8.11% of its value today closing at $52.91 per share. Motorola (makers of the PowerPC chips...

All of that sounds REALLY GOOD!!! I wonder how much of it is true... I really hope that Apple will be including the HyperTransport technology from AMD. I read a review about nVidia's new nForce chipset that uses HyperTransport, and the performance gains are very impressive!!! If Apple is...

Let me explain the symbolism here... My wife and I run a coffee/ice cream shop (among other things) and I modeled this cup after one of our 24 oz. mocha-for-here. It is not ice cream, but whipped cream on the top! It is, after all, COCOA!! =)

just testing it out... I created this icon for the cocoa applications that I write.

I don't know about the Beige G3, but I know that for the G4's Apple setup the computer to only allow CD and ZIP drives (no hard drives) to be run on the secondary IDE controller. I remember from your earlier posts that you do not have any problems with the second drive (on the secondary IDE...

Recently I read that 1 in 5 servers run Novell. That is pretty amazing considering how hard Microsoft has been pushing NT, and that Linux is free. I do not know if the statistic refers to all servers (including web/mail) or if it is strictly file servers. I know next to nothing about Novell.

I think one of the biggest problems with this format for developers is that it does not allow the developer the control over the user. Say for example, there is a demo application that expires in 30 days. Because the use just dragged it onto the hard drive, the preferences are stored only in...

you can change the Linksys router to be on the 10.0.0.x network instead of 192.168.1.x. You can turn off DHCP on the Linksys also and assign it to 10.0.0.2. DHCP dynamically assigns IP when a computer starts up, but will not assign an IP if it is in use. It does not matter if that IP is...

The problem is with the DHCP on the iBook. In order for the Linksys router to re-route port 80 requests, you have to define the IP address of the iBook, not the airport basestation. By default, the Linksys router only DHCPs numbers up to .100, any number after that is available. You also...

I just read an article about the new Quicksilver from MacAddict and I was amazed to find out a few things about the newest of the G4 line. 1) The 867 and the 800DP both come with a 2MB Level 3 cache that is suppose to make the machine a lot faster. The 733 only comes with the 256kb Level 2...

Ok, you guys are right and I am wrong. The Beige G3 does have IDE hard drives and IDE CD-ROMs. http://www.info.apple.com/info.apple.com/applespec/applespec.taf?RID=271 As far as swapping out the internal, that is possible even with the 7100-7600 style case. You need to pop off the front...

I have done this with the 733 I have a work. Using the software restore disks are actually faster than installing them from the OS9 and OSX cds. When you install the OS only, you do not get the extra applications, and especially the 650mb of MP3s with iTunes. Other major apps installed with...

technically, the firewire enclosure should not need any drivers, but the CDR would. Make sure the CDR supports mac. Another option that I just thought about is instead of an firewire case, you can get an IDE card for your mac. Personally, I would go for the firewire solution. It would...
