I've had my iPod for a little over six months, and I love it. Of course, I'd like a little better battery life, but I'm not complaining. I am however paranoid about how I charge and discharge it (this comes from the fact that I just had an iBook battery die and was told that I didn't "manage...

Given the steady transition to 802.11g (99% of our computers), our office has decided to turn off the 802.11b (hybrid mode) of our wireless network to gain a little extra network efficiency, at least according to the IT people. This leaves myself and a few other iBook G3 owners out of luck with...

I got an iPod for Christmas, and apparently everyone who picks it up has to look at the back and try to polish the fingerprints out of it. Because of this, I already have some streaks and scuffs that aren't bad, but enough to annoy me. Anyway, does anyone have experience with using polish on...

I'm curious if anyone else is noticing a major increase in the amount of spam in their .mac e-mail account. I'm getting close to 8 new spam messages a day now all sent to an address similar, but not identical to my .mac address. Most of it is really nasty spam too. I'm talking pictures that...

Well, I've been running Jaguar for a year without Classic installed. I get Panther today, and suddenly have to run a firmware update to install it. Problem is, the firmware update is an OS 9 only installer. So, I need to reinstall OS 9. When I boot from the installation disc, it tells me...

Just announced...here. Notably product activation required in new Photoshop CS for Windows. I'm sure there will be many comments on this. d8n_two

Okay, so iSync is looking at it's next revision soon (or so say the rumors). Does anyone know anything about additional phone models? I've heard about Symbian support, but what about SyncML support? I have a Nokia 6200 with SyncML & USB capabilities. I'm just curious if the next iSync will...

So, I updated to 10.2.4, and updated the httpd.conf file to reactivate php. I tried to restart Web sharing, and it just stalls. It says it is starting up for hours on end. Any ideas why? Thanks in advance.

This is partially rumor and partially an idea. I was recently at a friends house who had his PS2 running the Linux kit that is available for it. He was also telling me that he had heard Apple had been condisering a similar package that included a "lite" version of OS X that could run on the...

While Christmas day was very good to me, it has left me with a tough decision. My uncle got me an iPAQ H1910, but obviously, I'm a Mac user and PocketPC isn't exactly Mac-friendly. I can exchange it for one of two Palm OS options: the Palm m515 or the Sony Clie T665C. I need some advice...

For any of you fans of the pop/punk band MxPx that haven't checked out their latest Web site redesign, you'll now notice that their download section is now a flash-based Aqua iBook. I hadn't checked out their site in a while, but I thought it was pretty cool. It even has a dock on the left...

I have been considering El Gato's EyeTV hardware to use my iMac as a PVR, but I am not too excited about the encoding and compression "options" that device has. I've started looking at Formac's Studio DV/TV device & software. Although it is is around $200 more, it has better inputs and better...

I had the chance to talk with a Nokia USA recruiter the other day at a career fair my university was hosting. After I was done brown-nosing for a job, I talked to him in a non-official capacity about the future of wireless and new devices that were out. After talking for a while I mentioned...

I haven't given up and signed up for .Mac yet, but I do plan to within 13 days. I'm doing it because I love my iDisk for transferring files between my iMac at home to the computers (mostly Dells) in the labs at my university. I seem to remember the reason that Apple went to the WebDAV...

I get e-mails* everyday that review what is happening in the stock market. It also gives tips on what to buy, sell and hold with brief reasons why. Today's e-mail had this to say: I called a friend of mine who works with Merrill Lynch. He said he had heard rumbling of a couple different...

I sort of asked this question in another thread but it got lost and no one really addressed it. I'm curious if anyone has ever used one of these (GVP Storage) drives. Looking at the specs it has the two prominent things people have told me to look for: 7200 RPM & Oxford 911. I've been...

I know there has been a lot of talk about Apple's Education discounts, but I just took advantage of a pretty cool deal Adobe is offering as a "Back to School special." It called the Print-to-Web promotion. It includes: Adobe Photoshop® 7.0 Adobe Illustrator® 10 Adobe InDesign® 2.0...

...hello Apple cell phone rumors, hopes? Jobs thinks the PDA is on it's way out, but seems awfully interested in the next generation cell phone market. He spoke about it in the financial conference call. During the Q&A session Steve is asked about emergence of the iPod and iSynch, and how the...

I was curious for those that have ordered Jaguar already, what shipping method did you use? I remember with 10.0, I picked 3-day shipping (I think) and it was actually at my door the Saturday of the release. Has anyone talked to customer service to know if a certain shipping preference will...
