    Apple - Part II

    I can't believe this guy...that is an idiot that complains in a non-sense way. I LOVE it so much and it's dead stable and u can beat it up if you want to without crashing it hard. It runs pretty well in the finder on the G4....but it's slow in some area that's just the GUI!!!!!!!! They are...

    OS X on Intel AGAIN (osopinion.com article)

    NO WAY in a million years....Apple would never port the whole OS X to x86 machines....that will kill Apple for sure. Believe me. If they run OS X on x86 they will not buy Macs cause they cost more than cheapo PCs....if they dare. That will lose Apple overall sales and can hurt them...if...

    Lombard PowerBooks and OS X

    That's right 512 is the max for a lombard but for a Pismo is 1 GB...you must be talking about the Pismo. Most say it's 512. I never heard of anyone having 1 GB on a lombard. I don't think it's compatible. Smiles Galen

    help!!! Memory reading problems

    I have a 333 MHz powerbook G3 lombard bronze keyboard. It would not read the 256 MB module. Instead it only reads 128. That's half less than it is. It should read 256 cuz it's a 256 MB module. I only get total of 192 Mb of RAM instead of 320 with 64 and 256 modules. The 256 is on the top...

    Does 512 MB memory stick will be regonizable on a B/W G3?

    Hey Macsters, I'm wondering if a 512 MB memory module will be compatible with a Blue and white G3 since I heard rumors it works on them. If possible I can go up to 2 GB of memory with 4 512's. I would like to hear if anyone have any luck have them work without any problems thank you. GALEN

    External HD

    nah, I've messed up internal drives many times. Every new hard drive needs to be formatted to Mac, most of them are default to PC. U may need to use special 3rd party driver. I know u won't pay for software that does the formatting and attach 3rd party driver so it'll work as a start up disk...

    I Have Been Forced To Buy A Pc

    In my opinion I think Macromedia is not making the flash player optimized for Mac. I don't see a problem on my computer, I'm serious. I haven't got a crash or slow animation. IT runs just fine, fast and smooth. I don't know what u guys talking about. Maybe u meant the flash player when u...
