PoweMACuser - I am confused by your Threads. You say that you are a Mac user, and then you also say that you are not an anti-Microsoft user. Then you start this thread saying at CNet has a screwed up evaluation method in testing these two operating systems. But you never say which operating...

I like TextEdit - but if you want a Unix terminal window text editor - you can never go wrong with Emacs. Pico is for Windoze *nix user.

I suggest you go to apple's website and seriously take a look at the new 800 MHz and 867 Mhz G4's. It's the most impressive systems that I have every seen. I suggest gettting the single processor 867 Mhz - then upgrade the RAM on your own (b/c if you ask apple to upgrade it for you - it will...

One reason why OS X runs so fast on the G4 chip is that Altivec has additional features specific written for the G4 processor.

try the following command: mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/fd0 or mount /dev/floppy Hopefully this works for you - even so, I still do not know how you can get the disk to eject the disket without pushing in the releash button with a paper clip. If the command is succesful - you can access the disk...
