    Battery life with peripherals connected...

    ...is down to 2hrs 50mins. The peripherals attached are an Apple BT keyboard and an external display. Would this cause such a reduction in battery life? I've also noticed that the battery level of the keyboard is down to 60% 2 weeks after starting to use the keyboard. I thought the batteries on...

    Run Application only on external display

    First thing I'd like to say is OSX is one very good OS! Bought a Fujitsu-Siemens 17" LCD display, connected it and without installing a single driver, the OS knew the model of the display I had just connected. :) :) Now, to my question. Is there any way of customising an application's...

    Logitech MX 1000 compatibility

    Ummm...yes :) I actually did that...found a bunch. There were some that reported that the cursor would jump wildly across the screen when using this mouse. Poor drivers or something of the sort. Has anybody experienced this?

    New mouse

    I'm a right-handed person and like to keep the right side clutter-free. Therefore, I plug everything into a powered hub including the receiver for my wireless M$ mouse and plug the hub's USB cable into the left USB port. I have found from experience that a wired mouse on a laptop is more of a...

    Spotlight going into Vista???¿¿???

    Check out http://www.lingvosoft.com/English-Latvian-Dictionary/ and type Vista. Choose to translate to english and Vista(Latvian) = Hen, Fowl (English).

    Mac OSX 10.3.9 installation considerations

    I've searched this forum, but I can't find anything relevant. I remember @ the time of 10.3.9 release, there were some issues that were experienced and reported as problems with the 10.3.9 update. I'm currently downloading the 113.4 MB Combo update, and I've downloaded the 202 KB Java fix for...

    10.4.2 is freezing my Mac!

    Gasp! ...amazing you say?! Why, you oughta be flogged for that...there're some serious viruses that take advantage of System Restore; you run anti-virus and clean out your PC. Next time you switch on the viruses are back. I run my PC with Sys Restore turned off. But I get your point, MacOSX...

    Ghost Recon: what do you think?

    We have a slow (shared) connection so that's not going to be possible for a while. :( I find the FireFight type of game (@ Recruit level) almost unfair...haven't lasted more than 5 minutes...

    Ghost Recon: what do you think?

    It arrived yesterday and I got a swift introduction to the scary sound of being shot. I'm still learning to control my teams; otherwise I'm loving the game.

    Ghost Recon: what do you think?

    Virtual paint ball? I was under the impression that you were part of a 'ghost' team...sneaking about...only taking out crucial targets...in fact, one review of the game advised that if you go into a stage with guns blazing you'll most certainly not come out :D Anyway, thanks for all ur opinions...

What bobw has listed is pretty close to what I have as part of...
