    Stupid CD-R's

    You should do what I did...I was sending my iBook in, and the manager told me it's be $80 for them to back up my data to a DVD-R (I had a DVD iBook, not a combo). So I politely asked him if I bought a blank DVD, could I transfer my data via firewire to one of the store's machines, and burn the...

    It doesn't bother me, I'm just worried about it become loose over time.

    Does anyone else's iMac have a crooked screen?

    I put a builders level on it to make sure. The manager @ the local apple store said to bring it in, they just have to tighten a few screws.

    How much ram can the 12" PB take?

    It has a 256 chip soldered in, and only the other slot is upgradeable, to the best of my knowledge. You can use upwards of 640, but you have to be willing to put out for a 1GB stick...which is currently hovering inthe $800 range.

    USB TV Tuner for Tibook

    EyeTV is really the only choice. I have one, and it ROCKS. That MyTVtogo or whatever its called it a piece of crap...I got it, and returned it the same day. EyeTV is pricey, but worth every cent.

    Does anyone else's iMac have a crooked screen?

    I just got my third LCD iMac a few weeks ago (a 1ghz 17"), and when I got it home, I noticed that the screen is crooked. It's only off by 2 or 3 degrees, and I probably wouldnt have noticed it if I didn't have something hanging on the wall behind it. Does Apple cover this under warranty?

    The Windows Forum

    I've used XP before...*shudder* But by being a mac bigot ("But keep this in mind: MAC IS ALWAYS BETTER! no matter what i mention thats good, there will be something even better on mac"), all you're doing is showing your ignorance. I LOVE apple. But there are some things that Microsoft is good...

    This Bill Gates quote is laughable!

    It's a shame that all that money's wasted on such a screaming dork.

    Which Newton should I buy?

    An HTML server? I know you can do a bunch of crap on a newton, nbut what are the advantages over getting a Palm? (At this point, I'm getting it over a Zire mainly because it a piece of "Apple History")

    Which Newton should I buy?

    What's a fair price? I'm looking on Ebay, and seeing the things go for $250....I can get a nice Palm or Visor for that much...I mean, they were discontinued in 98, they should be cheaper.

    Which Newton should I buy?

    I'm looking to buy a Newton on E-bay...I know that the first few models are actual pieces of feces with the Apple logo affixed, but I can't find model #'s. The later ones are supposed to have great handwriting recognition, etc. Which model should I be looking for...does anyone have one to sell?

    How to make iChat use USB cameras...

    Ridiculous. Reminds me of the iPod debates. When the 3G iPod came out, people who had the previous generation iPods were crying because they couldn't use the new features. Suddenly the iPods that were GREAT on April 27th were absolute trash come April 28th. You mean to tell me that you're crying...

    G5 vs. 17" PowerBook vs. 17" iMac

    For what you're using it for, even the iMac would be overkill. I just got one last week (upgraded from a G4 700 iMac), and it's FAST. For the kind of money you'd spend on the 17" PB/G5, you could get yourself an iMac AND an iBook.
