    Take the Leap

    Well, technically yes :D. Them Canadians are always behind on technology.... I actually miss all the games from the classic days. The games these days may have better graphics, but the ones back then were much more awesome!! I thought I might also point out that your post count Amie is...

    I Want a Good Aquarium Widget that's NOT a CPU Hog!

    I feel as though there really won't be any good aquarium widget that won't be a CPU hog. There's just so much processing that has to go on in order to make everything look real. Just think of each of the little things that have to go on every second. I guess, if you don't mind having a low...

    Apple ][ software

    Thanks! I'll also take any websites that have open source programs written in AppleSoft basic that I could type in myself.

    Do Dashboard Widget Browsers Require Internet?

    The reason why I use the safari widgets or whatever they're called is because I just want to view a bunch of small parts of multiple pages at one time. I love how it auto updates as well. I use it most for sports websites that don't have any widgets. Basically I use them for parts of websites...

    Apple ][ software

    I recently acquired an Apple ][e the other day and while I know a bit about basic and can do some programming on it. I'm assuming there is a lot more software out there for it, but I haven't been able to find any. I'd been fine with any software, but of course a DOS would be nice too or some...

    MacBook problems and not an Apple Store in sight!

    Well, I'm assuming that they went buy either the email address when I bought it or when I registered. Hopefully it works out fine. I received the box yesterday and sent it out as well. It's nice that it's overnight, I'm hoping to see a repair status sometime soon.

    Which 1 Dictates Computer SPEED?

    I think he really is banned.... Generally it shows in their tagline. I'll let the mods give the final say though. I'm guess out of his four posts, they were possibly irrelevant, flaming, or simply spam. (They seem to be fairly irrelevant and posting for the sake of posting)

    MacBook problems and not an Apple Store in sight!

    I had a nice talk with an Apple tech support guy this morning. Other than the really annoying automated system that tries to get your serial and can't get it right after four times. Luckily after it screws up enough, it just sends you to a human. I talked to the guy and assured him that I had...

    MacBook problems and not an Apple Store in sight!

    Really? I searched all over the place to see if they would send me a box and all I saw was that they didn't. Do I just call or email them and ask for one?

    MacBook problems and not an Apple Store in sight!

    Recently on my 2008 MacBook, my Mini-DVI out port has given up the ghost. I've tried many adapters and such, but no go. My AppleCare runs out on June 18 and I would like to get my laptop in so that I don't have to pay an arm and a leg. The problem is... I live in the middle of Iowa. There...

    g4

    Well... Your Powerbook G4 uses a G4 processor. I would second the app mentioned earlier, it's great for telling you everything you ever needed to know about any mac. You can get a simple readout if you just go to the Apple menu on the top left of your screen and then go to "About This Mac."...

    Safari

    Well if you got to the pull-down menu "View" and then "Customize Toolbar." You can add a new tab button, however there is no new window button, but tabs are much more convenient than windows. Odd.

    Norton 360 installation problems

    There used to be a time when Norton was a good company... But it's definitely not now. If you are interested in Anti-Virus, then I would use Kaspersky which is for both Mac and Windows and has always worked well for me.

    Big problem! Help!

    Well, seeming that it is your only post on this forum it seems a bit odd (even though it says you joined in 2005). There are many programs out there that can mess up your computer if they are used wrongly, thus I am not surprised about what happened. I find that a lot of people run into many...

    Does iPhone 4 replace a GPS device?

    The iPhone 4 have an Assisted GPS (A-GPS), which means that instead of a straight satellite to iPhone. It is instead satellite to cellphone tower to your iPhone. Since the cell towers do the calculating, the calculations are faster and requires less processing power which uses less power. A-GPS...

    Radio Software

    So basically you just need an audio recorder program. Garageband will do a great job and if you don't have Garageband, then Audacity will allow you to record and save it as an audio file.

    Websharing

    When you just enter in the IP for your computer, it will go to the computer's main web folder as there is a separate web folder for the computer and all the users on it. In order to edit the web pages that will show up when you enter in the IP of your computer, you must go to your root drive...

    Streaming woes

    I must agree, I feel as though YouTube lacks what the people at Google can provide us. There has never been a time when I haven't had problems with YouTube, either the video won't even show up or it takes an hour to load a three minute video. (End of rant :D ) I honestly think it's just...

    I accidentally my mac

    If the only thing deleted was your iLife apps, then you can easily just reinstall those from the installer disc; whether it came with the Mac OS X install disc or you actually bought the separate iLife disc. If it did actually delete more than just one application and you would want to...
