KILL BILL (would make a great name for a movie title, no?!)

karavite - from what chevy says, it sounds like you need to get yourself the latest copy of "guns and ammo"!!! Seriously, though - all the best of luck with your move - i'm sure it'll be great (if only to stop you having to shovel snow while I sit in the sun!) In a nutshell - I've lived in...

Congratulations karavite! Presumably this is now somewhere warmer, eh?! Me too! I'm moving to Malta! First job is Cat 5 throughout! I will be looking again at all the X10 Europe sites now... Do let us know if you find anything new and exciting!!! ;)

i understand that to go down the "lossless" route would be a step backwards - I'm sorry if I didn't make myself clear... I was simply commenting on the fact that they have created a lossless system for iTunes that uses half the size of previous attempts - can't they do something similar for...

Given that Apple's just released iTunes 4.5 with lossless encoding for half the size, am I right in thinking a similar approach could be taken to iChat? Running on 1MB / 256 kbps connection with friends on 512 / 256, iChat is still a bit hit and miss... 3 way video conferencing with good...

does no-one actually read what's been written previously prior to posting their own little pearls of information?!

i just changed my PB for a new 1.33 GHz... I'm trying to sell my old one (11 months old) through my local Apple dealer... When I said I didn't have AppleCare the price he offered me dropped by much more than the cost of the insurance... so I got it. I'm in the middle of completing...

i would wait - they've got to update them sometime soon... ;)

I think he's bought his RAM as an after market purchase from the G5 - sensible and cheaper! I was forgetting the G5 has so many slots - whenever I've bought a Mac I rip out all the existing and give it away - trying to max it out... Therefore the total always seems more "even" I see the...

gerbick - you're absolutely right - my brain was obviously switched off when i posted that... DOH!!!

fahrvergnuugen - glad you've still got the number one PowerMac - I hate / love it when they outdate mine! :mad: :D How did you manage to put 2.5GB RAM in your PM? I thought it was imperative to have matched pairs of RAM in the G5s? :confused:

What about the future integration of "Spoken Interface", anticipated for 10.4? Methinks this could work rather nicely with the whole Home Automation theme... ;-)

thanks, bob! ;-)

Has anyone bought 1GB RAM sticks for the new PowerBooks? Outside the States the prices are just silly, so a friend of mine has agreed to purchase on my behalf... If someone has experience of buying 1GB sticks online, that would be great - different stores seem to confuse between 1GB kits...

i can wait until september!!! ;) and then the precious will be mine.... all mine! :D

As the article says : "Microsoft and the PC industry have a two-to-three-year window to simplify home networking and moving content around the home," American Technology Research's McNealy said. Or could it be APPLE?!?!?! :rolleyes: Interesting article in the NYT - I've been trying to...

let's face it - most Mac lovers hate windows... (I'm not going to bother capitalising the "w") If we can have an "Apple Rumours and Discussion", can't we have an "m$ rumours and discussion"? I used PCs for 15 years - I tried 95/98/NT/2000/XP Pro - I spent more than $7,000 per computer...

i get the feeling that hulkaros' strapline might equally apply to you, octane... i.e.. "Don't make me angry... You wouldn't like me when I'm angry"!!! This is so much better than Coronation Street / Eastenders / Melrose Place / Friends!! tee hee...

It's hardly positive, though, is it? :confused: "The headphones that come with it offer a dismal fit, tend to blow out and, say audio experts, don't match the high-performance capabilities of the player," reports Forbes.
