    Cool websites for Desktop Backgrounds?

    One of my absolute faves regarding desktop backgrounds is Fracture: http://macupdate.com/info.php/id/7859. "But it's a screensaver, and I want desktop backgrounds!, you say. Well, hold your water, sir or madam; while Fracture IS a fractal generating screensaver, it allows one to save any of...

    Do Mac users support GW Bush?

    Hey Dude, absolutely no offense taken, really! And the Hitler/Bush image is not, in any way, related to my comment. Sadly, an inherent problem with email is that it's often too easy to get a wrong take on the writers intent. Since the theme of this thread is GWBush, I felt a gentle(or not so...

    Do Mac users support GW Bush?

    Yiddish is a language, not a religious affiliation. I believe Edwardo Shmedo is Jewish(is he circumcised?).

    Cleaning iBook, iKlean etc. merged thread

    Here's my post from a previous thread regarding screen and case cleaners: "I've always used the "house brand" spray screen cleaners found at chain office supply stores (Staples, Office Depot) on all my Powerbooks over the years and have never had any problems. I've found those spray cleaners...

    What's the normal temp for a MBP?

    I'd say 83C under full load is too hot, although that kind of peak temp seems to be the norm for MBPs, currently. If I'm not mistaken, pre MBP laptops have an absolute max temp of around 74C at which point the computer will automatically shut down.PB I've just used your script to run my...

    Which Brand of RAM?

    I've made a number of purchases from OWC and haven't had any problems. My latest purchase was for a 1 Gig Samsung memory module for my PB. Samsung modules tend to be pricier than many others, but Samsung's memory quality is consistently high. Samsung memory is what Apple has generally used...

    Monitoring Macbook Temperatures

    Well, of course, I'm not referring to the entire laptop.......even at 70 Celsius folks who rest their laptop on their laps would be rushing to the emergency room of their local hospital with 2nd degree burns! Since the processor usually gets the hottest, that would be the most salient area to...

    Screen Cleaning

    I've always used the "house brand" spray screen cleaners found at chain office supply stores (Staples, Office Depot) on all my Powerbooks over the years and have never had any problems. I've found those spray cleaners be extremely efficient. I've also been using their spray cleaners (called...

    Monitoring Macbook Temperatures

    In light of the ongoing issue of Macbooks/Macbook Pros running too hot, it would be really interesting if Macbook/Macbook Pro owners would monitor the temperature ranges of their laptops and post them here. Using something like Temperature Monitor: http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/12381...

    to macintel or not to macintel?

    I do think there's evidence of a drop in quality with the MacBooks and MacBook Pros, and possibly the last generation of Powerbooks. My Powerbook, though, has been pretty solid; just a failed hard drive after a year and a half of steady use, replaced free of charge under AppleCare's warranty...

    Do Mac users support GW Bush?

    Well, of course! And I think that a very good case can be made that BUSH SUPPORTERS, as well, are DANGEROUS IDIOTS! A valid question might be, "Are Bush supporters of lower intelligence than Bush opposers?".

    Maintence

    Since viruses for Macs are, for all intents and purposes, still nonexistent, anti virus programs are really not needed. In the event that an active virus does rear its ugly head, you would likely get wind of it via the internet well before it attacks your Mac, and in plenty of time to take...
