    I like this site a lot too :) I think my origional 1st post was about my Macintosh HD icon kept jumping to the lower right corner of the screen. Turned out I wasnt giving it enough room the the upper right corner where it stays. Now i'm up to; uh 500-something posts. EDIT: This post is 525

    What was this all about?

    All of the sudden I could not launch any programs. They would bounce and disappear... So I made the stupid mistake of logging off to log back in and see what happens. I logged off; tried logging back in and it it stuck at that spinning progress bar. I had to force power off (hold power button)...

    funny windows jokes

    lol @ the second one. When you click Start and then Turn Off Computer it says "turning off that thing that goes tick tick tick really fast". And also when you click on "lookout explorer". The virus message box. LOL :p EDIT: LOL again. Click Start and then "Nuke" in the second one. :D

    is it wise to buy a Mac now?

    Apple will still support the PowerPC processors even after they move to Intel. Programmers will still make programs that are capable of running on both Intel Macs and PPC Macs.

    Safari email-defaults to helv. fractions and becomes unreadable

    I'm kind of confused :confused:. Are you talking about Mail.app? Apple's Mail program? If so; you'll have to set it up again; but go to Macintosh HD > Users > yourusername > Library > Prefrences Move the file "com.apple.mail.plist" to the desktop. Start Mail; set it up again and see if it...

    Sizzle?

    As long as nothing else happens I think it will be fine. I remeber now we had a problem with a old iMac G3 I had making a 'sizzling' noise. Turned out to be a little piece of plastic stuck in the CPU fan.

    Sizzle?

    Sounds like something went awry with the power supply unit or harddisk. Things like that and the speakers will interfere with the CRT display. Not sure about the drilling; did you have any other electric devices on? And if so; did they do anything? like lights dimming? EDIT: Is it storming...
