    WindowsXP ads..stop the horror!

    Those blade computers really look nice, Sun say that they are the ultimate thin client but when a system packs a CPU with that much punch you really have to admit that if you used it as a thin client would be wasting some serious CPU cycles.

    WindowsXP ads..stop the horror!

    for everyone who has installed XP on a system I ask this.. Did you all laugh. I used to be a humble windows user and when win95 came out to be honest it was a breakthough for the windows platform. (Same engine under the bonnet and horrid stability but we all know that) Windows XP is just...

    Go Apple Go Apple !!!!!

    While apple said that they didnt want to enter the turbulent waters of the PDA world I think they have a opportunity if they did enter it. I have a palm pilot and have been happy with it, I had to search high and low to get software to sync it with my Desktop Windows PC (shudder) at work. We...

    SCSI CD burning?? ever?

    I am in the same boat, I have a 2906 scsi card which 10.1 picked up and I have a SCSI burner which is recognised by 10.1... but I cant burn. None of the CDR programs detect the burner. I looked around and found nothing much on the internet, then when reading the readme file for Toast 5.1p2 I...

    Cd-Burning on MacOS 10.1

    In the Roxio Toast Preview 2 Readme "SCSI CD recorders are currently not supported by Apple’s kernel level CD-R component. Hence Toast does not recognize SCSI devices." Does 10.1 Suport this Kernel Level CD-R Component?

    Cd-Burning on MacOS 10.1

    I have just installed 10.1 ;) and found that it picked up both my SCSI drive (Adaptec 2906) and my Cd-Burner (Matshita CD-R CW-7502) however neither Toast or iTunes will find the burner. It worked fine with Toast in the old days of os9 but has yet to do anything under X. I was curious if...

    Hardware Delema Mac or PC?

    I heard rumors of apple looking to make a rack mount server a few months back. They could seriously shave the dollars off the cost of Render Farms if they made a simple pizza box that had basic components and a nice big CPU. Sun have the Netra's which are small and simple but do the trick. And...
