Damn! She really DOES have an iPod in her pocket...

Well, I don't see anything wrong with making right-handed mice, it IS what the majority of people want. However, I do think these developers should be forced to make a keyboard WITHOUT a right-only mouse bundled, or with no mouse bundled. Preferably the latter since I prefer a wireless keyboard...

So, I downloaded the great Fink, and it downloads stuff as much as I want it to, then it complains that I don't have a C compiler. It suggests I upgrade Apple Developer Tools, though I have none. I joined as a developer for free, but downloading these 600MB from this iDisk-like thing really...

Now, I don't know the legal issues involved, but Real can blame themselves. I used to love 'em, but have you tried to use RealPlayer recently? Let alone DOWNLOAD it? I gave up on the download part since they required me to register everything from credit card number to my parents' social...

Just what I was looking for, thank you.

I'm writing a newbie AppleScript ping application, the intention is to check internet connection with only one click. So far, the code looks like this: tell application "Terminal" do script "ping -c 10 www.vg.no" end tell As you've probably guessed, this opens Terminal and pings vg.no 10...

Took 'em long enough...

Personally, I'd go for the Griffin one. After a while your laptop gets hot underneath, right? Griffin's stand seems to not block that bottom as much...

Also, USB Oversdrive is, if memory serves, a very handy tool for anything you don't have drivers to. It'll let you put those extra buttons to work...

Yeah, they are sending a car to pick it up, unfortunately, since Apple hires some company which hires a local company to do the job, I have absolutely no idea when they come by...not even which DAY...

Sure, you find me a CompUSA store in Norway which'll replace the screen Apple has damaged and the keyboard they stole, and I'll be more than happy to take it there...

Five weeks ago I recieved my PowerBook G4 15", excellent hardware, even if it arrived much later than I was told at the time I ordered (see sig for specs) Three weeks ago I got the "yelllow spots" problem. Great! The Apple Support guys first denied it, said he never heard of the problem. I told...

Still, this should be a part of the keyboard preferences be default. Good idea for OS X programmers...

50 USD a year may actually be worth it...will give ti a try once I get my PB back from repair...

Well, seeing as how they are all bades on the general idea of sharing text with othher people, I guess they are all "Text based", but personally, I find X-Chat Aqua to be the best alternative. Also, unlike Ircle and Snak, X-Chat Aqua is free.

In case you're taking about AlBook (only one not replied to yet), you lay it upside-down on a table, remove the battery (3 seconds), unscrew 4 small screws (less than a minute) insert the RAM, press it down (30 seconds), put the lid back on and screw the screws (1 and a half minute, maybe)...

Has anyone considered random violence against SCO workers and stock owners?

I'm on a Wintel which doesn't do well with PDF, give me the short story.

Also, when getting a new one, try building one from scratch. There's not much you can do wrong as most parts fit one place and only there, and pcguide.com is the Macosx.com of PCs, they help very much. This may not be very visible in terms of benchmarking, but it will sure be easier to upgrade...

If you need references, click this link: http://discussions.info.apple.com/ Then go to PowerBook>FW800 (which is 15" AlBook)>Displays There's a flow of people who have had problems with several "white spots", as in some parts of the screen were much brighter than others, and some with "yellow...
