See, I'm sure that Longhorn will be nice and much improved over windows XP...i'm sure of that, and I'm sure it will be polished and finished. It will bootup faster, have very nice 3d affects such as shadowing and transparency and animations...but it will also need more ram, more cpu, at least a...

Heh....I've used that beta build of Longhorn...LoL. How are they even COMPARING it to OS X. The final product isn't going to change the way people use their PC. It will have a damn SIDEBAR...that's it....sidebar...you will have to choose your apps from the taskbar, and everything will work the...

doing a clean install of jaguar would be cool, but you can do a lot without reinstalling to help it run smoothly. You could use something like MacJanitor or Cocktail to run the cron scripts and clean out your VM cache and such. you could also use something like Disk Warrior to defrag and...

i have a digital subscription to umm.... Pc World and the files are about 18mb in size, they do still include and what not. The software used to read it at least for the PC is much like Adobe acrobat..you can zoom in and print and skip pages and such...but it is a rather large 18mb file that is...

Heh....simple solution....don't share your itunes playlist ;) But who really cares what people think of you anyway?

Heh.....i used to play everquest about 4 years ago...it got me so addicted i forgot about the real world entirely, heh....but i finally quit playing and never will touch EverCrack again....never......that game has some sort of hypnotic mind control built into it...maybe it's the colors, or the...

I like people the same, whether they are religious or not(not fantatical religious people) and I love debating certain things with them. I do this often with my mother and I have at least opened up her mind to some things she never thought of, which is good, considering she's from the "old...

I'd run some diag on the drive..make sure SMART says its okay....and if possible...run some other diag. Also maybe try switching the position on the IDE chain or the IDE cable and the power connector it's connect to...try to rule out all the easy hardware problems first :)

Yeah, it really is....but one has to change with the times, and the times have really changed.

Identity theft is a huge deal nowadays, watch your back and know where your wallet/purse is at all times. Have copies of the phone numbers to cancel your credit cards and other important information on hand and just use some common sense :)

yeah, you want something that does 1600x1200@75hz at least....look for a second hand Viewsonic, or Sony, or Mitsubishi...with a nice flat trinitron tube :D Like Zammy said ;)

hmm....still thinking about this and I really have NO idea what it could be. I'm running 10.3.1 right now on an iBook 700 and i have no speed problems during minimizing or doing any quartz stuff....I have a 16mb video card in this thing and in itunes while playing a song with opengl checked off...

are there any 3rd party dvd players available for mac os x? hmm...if so, i'd try one of those, heh.

you can get XP Home OEM for $99 most places....but you have to buy some sort of hardware with it, if not a complete system....regardless, $129 is fine, $99 would be a more attractive price, people like anything under $100 ;)

i was brought up catholic and thoroughly brainwashed into believing and not questioning anything the catholic church taught me, until that is i went through confirmation and stopped going to church, heh. Then i started questioning just about everything...which is sometimes a good thing, but now...

running fine so far here....though it's only been about an hour, heh.

Mine was a 700mhz G3 IBook Dual USB/Firewire model, 14 inch...i just got it back and it's working fine..for now *knocks on some more wood*
