I've ordered a MB Pro 13"; it will most probably have 10.5.7 or .8 when I get it. Which would be the better - upgrade or fresh install (i.e. before moving over my data and installing any apps.) to 10.6? I think upgrade will be fine since there wont be any broken apps. or plists to contend with...?

well, I'm a nokia user presently & do not own an iphone. I was just curious if the iphone had an equivalent app. to the afore-mentioned nokia ones. To move my contacts, old sms, gallery (pics,music, video clips etc), to-do notes & other calendar entries from my old e61 to my new N97 I activated...

Does the iphone have a sync application that allows a user to move data directly to another iphone? I recently upgraded from a nokia E61 to the N97 and found the 'switch' (N97) and 'sync' (e61) apps. quite handy in this regard.

I'd like to thank everybody who suggested I try to upgrade; called the shop on day 7, shipped it back on day 10 and they've credited me with the full amount! Now for my next one..

owing to the volatility of our currency vs. the dollar, I'll be getting a bigger HDD, twice the amount of RAM and slightly faster processor (the 2.53Ghz option) than what I have now for the same amount I paid for the macbook.

Quite right ElDiablo...its still my new macbook (that 'replaces' (PB still works just fine) my 4 year old PowerBook) and I'm still as happy with it as I was last week. Its just that...imagine if I'd waited a week... tomorrow when I call the shop where I bought it it'll be 7 days exactly. By the...

How about that huh? and the starting price of the 13 inch MB pro is lower than before. That integrated battery tho...what does it mean when it comes time to replace it? hand it in at a service centre or buy a new laptop?

Good to know, though I wonder if the version of iMovie and iDVD matters. Please elaborate on how you get the movie clips and still photos off the camcorder. Is it a simple matter of connecting the cam. to your computer and iMovie pops up or do you get the media from the SDHC card via a card reader?

I'm thinking of getting a camcorder that records to HDD. So far I've found Canon and Sony HDD examples. From my research on this site, I see a lot of people have had a lot of grief trying to get iMovie and IDVD to work with Sony dvd cams, but there're very few reports on HDD ones. Does this mean...

I use an "Option Globetrotter GT MAX 7.2 Ready" PCMCIA (wireless) modem to get online on my Powerbook G4. I upgraded the card's firmware a few days ago as well as the connection software. This has brought about an unexpected problem: the data transfer rate drops to zero every 5 minutes or so...

Got this on another forum - could be my problem: "The mini-USB specification is fairly reliable and rigid in terms. But it does include some options that allow for variations. For example, there is a resistor involved and the value of it can be varied to give a cable supplied with a for a...

well, @ least now I've an idea of what's contained in the little cylinder. thanks for the info.

I've got a Garmin nuvi 205 unit and it is able to charge when connected to the PC via USB (to mini-usb) cable. for some reason the cable I have does not charge the device. I've noticed that the only difference btwn my cable and one specified as garmin accessory is the cylindrical plastic on the...

I'm still skulking about with my PB 5,6 and a 20GB 4th Gen iPod with bad sectors...the dying iPod made me look at the new line of iPods. Why don't they ship out with a mains power adapter anymore? With the Intel macs, does the old adage still apply: "don't buy 1st gen. variants..."? And on the...

Nope, no funny DNS entries...strangely I am not moved to condemn y'all who've suggested I'm a porn site aficionado LOL! Anything specific for 10.3.9 that I could check? So it could be traffic volume. But I always get these re-directs at whatever time of the day.

I usually initiate my searches by typing whatever I'm looking for in my browser's search field and I've customised it to use google. If I use the above URL I get to google.com and when I perform my search I'm not re-directed to sorry.google.com. However this does not necessarily mean my problem...

The case of entire networks being affected was reported on the Mozilla discussion forum. happened in the US - an entire school district was affected I think. I'm an individual user - are there any tools I can use to check for malware on a Mac?

Multiple browsers I use on my Mac are affected. I've read that entire networks are affected as well. My Google searches are frequently re-directed to this page where I've to verify that there's a human behind the query. I've tried clearing browser cache and deleting cookies to no avail. I...

I came across this blog on Techrepublic http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/10things/?p=331 and I'd like people's opinion on point nr. 8. How true is that?

ah
