I finally got a Intel iMac. I got to say, this computer is significantly faster then my PB G4. This is my first desktop in awhile, and I am glad I made the purchase. Really impressed with the way bundled the iMac. :) When you get a iMac home, it is much different than using it at the store. At...

How many would buy a refrib G4 Powerbook? Does it make sense to invest in the G4 processor at this time? To make a long story short, I have a 15'PB G4. My son tripped over the power-cord, and yes, the laptop hit the floor. Although it still works, it has some dents and bruises. At times I...

I have the student/teacher version of Office 2004. All the office assistant I have is the Max one. I checked on my install CD and no other assistant is available. Are the others part of the professional version? They appear not to be on the Office 2004 web site. Can I get the other assistants...

I dropped my Power Book :eek: I need a bottom case because the corner is bent, and the top does not fit right. Can anyone recommend a repair place with replacement parts? I have checked some places on the net, although it is expensive, I am not ready to replace my Power Book yet. Has...

Has anyone started or in a group at .Mac? I am wondering if the idea of groups for .Mac has been useful. I noticed there are no groups to join, or at least one's I can find. Just curious if anyone is using the groups?

Using a PB with Tiger airport extreme and external Hard Drive (FW) I have the firewall on, and nothing is checked to allow communication. Moreover, I have Block UDP Traffic, Enabled firewall logging, Enable stealth mode. My questions is some time my external HD starts up without me actually...

I can't seem to warm up to firefox browser. I like the idea of themes, and play around with those. Generally the look and feel of firefox does not capture me. I use for a short time, and always go back to Safari. In my opinion next to Safari it is the best browser. It is fast and renders nice...

I am using Tiger. Under the Firewall setting I have checked the option to Enable firewall log. Occasionally, my external HD starts up from sleep after being idle for a period of time (although I am not that concerned with this, as I think OSX spins it on). Written in the log is several lines of...

My trusty old PowerBook 800mg dvi, died a month back. After buying a new car, I am recovering some money before purchasing a new PB. In the meantime, a friend let me take a surplus ThinkPad R40 1.8 M. Overall, I am impressed with the actual ThinkPad. Of course it has windows XP and Office. I...
