Well, I'm assuming that the CDRW drive is compatible with Mac OS X... but that doesn't mean that it is a bootable drive. The DVDRW sounds like it is not compatible... at all. The System Profiler can usually tell you if it is seeing a drive and if it is supported. The manufacturer should know...

And it only took 22 hours to post it here... :eek: There are already reports of problems on MacBooks. Windows isn't able to control the hardware and the systems seem to be over heating. People should be aware that any damage done to your Mac while running Windows is not going to be covered...

It seems to me that you would want to list as much about your experiences as you can. Tell them what you are bringing to the job. If I were applying, I would play download my education in mathematics... because I just don't see where any of it would help (so I would most likely not point them...

If you are using ImageReady CS or later then you can output your animation as a Flash (swf) file. It'll be much better quality than a GIF and much smaller too. Adobe added this ability to ImageReady after they stopped making LiveMotion.

So no one else uses a unique (not listed) version of the Mac OS? Wow. Well, my list of Apple OS systems gives a pretty good idea of what I like... two systems running Mac OS X v10.3.9 (Beige G3 and Pismo), two running Mac OS X v10.2.8 (iMac and Wallstreet), three running Mac OS 8.6 (8100...

My preferred Mac OS didn't make the list. :( Mac OS X Server 1.2 (Rhapsody 5.6)

I think everything takes it's cue from the speed of the logic board. That having been said, a 66 MHz bus is still faster than the read times on either a 5400 rpm or 7200 rpm drive, and you would most likely start getting the bottleneck with a 10,000 rpm drive. The major slow down with a...

Who decides what is "so good"? Adobe? To them, they may think that if the Windows version of Photoshop is good enough for Windows users then it is good enough for Mac users. I'm saying that if Photoshop for Windows runs at 100% as good as it does on a Windows PC on a Mac, that would be good...

Well, Photoshop is the perfect example, actually. Have you ever used Photoshop for Windows? I have. Photoshop for Windows is like most Windows apps... it is a rooted application. That is, the application and all document windows for that application are rooted in a single application...

I can... and it would be the single worse thing that could possibly happen to the platform. Heck, it would be the end of the platform. The whole idea is akin to keeping yourself warm by setting your coat on fire. Sure, for a short time you are warmer... but in the end, you have no coat. In...

If we are talking about Mac OS 9.0.x, StuffIt Expander 5.5 was included with the rest of the system. As I recall, you'll find it in Applications (Mac OS 9)/Internet/Internet Utilities/Aladdin Folder along with DropStuff 5.5. The first time Apple stopped including StuffIt Expander was with Mac...

I think you'll find that the AV option in the Beige G3s is not supported by Mac OS X... so if your main point of using that system is for video editing, Mac OS X is most likely not the way to go. I just finished putting together a Beige G3 for a client. It has a 40 GB hard drive, 640 MB of...

VirtualPC 4.x and lower will not run under Classic. If you try you'll get a message that says something like "VirtualPC can not run in Blue Box" (which was the early name for Classic). VirtualPC 5.x and later are able to run natively in Mac OS X on G3 and G4 systems. VirtualPC 7.x is needed...

Part of the reason I love being a Mac geek is the frontier feel of the platform. I like having to research answers and solving problems that haven't been seen a thousand times over. In fact it is that same feeling that makes me love working in Rhapsody, OPENSTEP and IRIX. I enjoy working...

The PowerBook G3s have the same limitations as the desktop systems of the same period. You should be safe with an 80 GB drive. If you need more internal storage, you could do what I've done with my Wallstreet... I have a 40 GB internal drive and a 20 GB drive in the expansion bay that would...

Well, Word 5.1a works great for me in Classic. No delay or slow down, no multiple characters when typing, it just seems to work. I've been using Word 5.1a in Classic since Mac OS X Public Beta without any issue. But, today's systems are quite a bit different than what I use and what Word 5.1a...

Then some one should have told Apple that they changed at 10.2... because it wasn't change at Apple until 10.3.

I hadn't noticed that missing pixel before. Though it seems to be there on both my 8600 and ThinkPad running Rhapsody... so I guess they put it back after Apple bought NeXT.

Well, what can I add that others haven't already said? It is real. That is the first ever web browser/editor. It was designed to read and create a modified version of SGML documents that included linked text within a document... this is where HTML started. And the name World Wide Web came...

OPENSTEP/NEXTSTEP does run great on PC hardware... but only on systems where it can recognize all the hardware. Companies and the like that used OPENSTEP/NEXTSTEP were all very careful to follow the list of compatible hardware for these systems. I've had very few problems with either...
