    Deafening roar - DP 1.25 G4?

    Yep, they sure have a fan... And whats more, the noise reverberates in the casing (being the shape it is) and is magnified! And the inbuilt monitor makes scary humming, and popping, and whizzing sounds while its running... kind of liek a degauss, but without actually degausing the screen. And...

    Can I format my Mac iPod to windows?

    SOmeone wants to buy my old 10GB iPod off me, and then I'd buy a new 20gb.. BUT he uses Windows, and I of course have a mac. He has FireWire, so that's not a problem. If he uses iTunes for WIndows, will it automatically see the iPod, or will he have to reformat it?

    I should hope that American autos have 2 pedals ;) Brakes are usual;ly a good idea ;) Yeah, you can't do burnouts with an auto... and it's always impressive to have the smoke coming from the front, not the back (though getting a front driver to burn out can be damn hard.) Where did this...

    Thanks, I'm sure I will.. It sure is a stick shift. :D (As an Australian, I woul dhave had NO idea what a stick shift is if I hadn't had an American friend telling me about it for 45 minutes a while ago! We jsut call them manuals here.!)

    I think I said in post earlier it's a Honda Jazz. But I don't want to sell it! Apart from the fact I can't sell it, as it's not actually mine yet, I really like it, and it's not like I'm going to have the chance of having a new car for a very long time. The other thing is if I replaced it...

    Bad news & CRT evils?

    I agree completely. I was going to be buying it and paying for it by the month though, as I would be happy to do with a computer, but as yet I can't find a loan that I can apply for without my parents acting as garantors. I will be moving out of home in a year, and need to have to pay rent...

    Bad news & CRT evils?

    There were no discussions about buying this car (A Honda Jazz, just to say), as I was planning to buy my own car, and one way when I was out with friends they called me to say that they'd bought it. At this time, I didn't realise a) My iMac would die b) that I would be doing serious...

    Bad news & CRT evils?

    No. a)I really like that car and b)My parents would (literally) kick me out of home for being 'ungrateful' Besides, the car isn't in my name, so I can't sell it. Why would I sell it two months after buying it if I want to avoid serious depreciation? That's kinda stupid really, because...

    Bad news & CRT evils?

    Well th ebad news (for anyone who cares, so I'm guessing very few ;) ) is that it looks like I won't be getting a replacemtn mac for a very long time, as my parental units won't give me permission to FlexiRent a new one, because "You have a perfectly good iMac upstairs" (which is not useful...

    Deafening roar - DP 1.25 G4?

    I was reading http://www.computervideo.net/jan03-2.html and I was wondering if the reviewer was exaggerating the amount of noise produced. I'm not sure I want to buy this computer if it truely is this load, because one of the things that annoys me is the noice from my old Rev. B iMac...

    1.6 G5 or dual 1.25 G4?

    I've got an iPod... a rather beaten up looking original 10GB model ;) The main comparison I'd liek to make isn't against my 333 iMac, because I know a bottom spec eMac would cream that heap-o-junk, but against my original release 700mHz G4 iMac with 512 RAM. I want one that will be notiably...

    1.6 G5 or dual 1.25 G4?

    My little ole 333mHz iMac has finally dsecided to die. Almost. I think me runing Mac OS X.2 with 96mb of RAM probably didnt' help it, but hey ;) To replace it, I can afford either a 1.6gHz G5 with the 17" screen, or a new dual 1.25gHz with a 17". I'd have them both specced the same, with 1GB...

    Suggestions for a new app...what would you like?

    How about... a timetable app that I can use at school, using a lsit file to generate the grid, (6 period per day, 5 day per week, 2 week timetable, for example) and not only does it show that (even Excel coudl do that) but gives extra information (like the Get Info... thing in iTunes, works on...

    Spend up on a Airport Extreme Base Station, or try to find a second hand older one?

    Nah, I haven't got the iBook yet. I have to sell my bass guitar before i can buy the iBook. I think I'll buy an AirPort card for the main computer, and then a base station when I can afford it. At least I will be able to use the internet while the other computer is on, and then when I ge tthe...

    An iBook on a Novell Netware network *shudder*

    What a surprise... we have a FastScout internet monitor thing on the net here, and it's blocking that site :P I'll have to go look at it at home. There's no chance I can get the school to change over to macs. They just bought 3 computer labs worth of Dulls. They are ALL crap. The ones we...
