    Best Graphics Card for G4 Sawtooth

    In light of Tiger's recent release, along with the introduction of Core Image, I was wondering what graphics card I could purchase for my G4 Sawtooth to take advantage of all the newest graphics technologies included with OS X. Any help would be appreciated. It only has a 2X AGP slot, though...

    Essential Software for OS X

    Hey all, I seem to recall a thread in the not-too-distant past where users can post which software they just can't live without. I did a couple of searches and came up empty handed. Can someone point me to the thread? or, should we start a new list? thanks.

    the definitive 150 features list for panther

    when jaguar came out, i started a thread that asked users here to post whatever new features they've seen or know about in the OS. in keeping with tradition, i think it's be great to have a unified list for all to see. since a lot of you guys have the panther betas, i'm sure this list will...

    Damn you, Apple Computer!

    i'm about $2k away from being out of debt. i've worked so very hard on being vigilant, and not buying stuff i don't really need. i cut corners, i look for sales, i buy in bulk. (i have enough ramen to last a few years. who knew you could buy a whole pallette at once?) and now they release the...

    so who's buying the iSight?

    i have to admit, it looks cool. i have an aging iRez USB kritter, which of course, is not compatible. i've been using IOExperts USB cam driver with some success, but if apple has such awesome native support for FW cams, would it make sense to buy one? plus, it has nice features: autofocus...

    sonnett processor upgrade

    i just upgraded my sawtooth 400 to a 1GHz sonnet Encore/ST... i also added 1GB of ram. it might just be my imagination, but the system feels much snappier, way more responsive, and Photoshop tasks are much faster. i found the card on http://www.nextag.com for relatively cheap, too...

    Bluetooth Error Question

    as i mentioned in a previous thread, i recently acquired a sony ericsson T68i. i love it. however (isn't there always a 'however'?), lately i can't seem to be able to make it receive files from my mac. i use the bluetooth file sharing app, or sometimes the bluetooth menuling. when i try to...

    Bluetooth File Sharing

    hello all. i was wondering if it's possible to obtain the Apple Bluetooth File Sharing apps without installing the OS from scratch. can they be extracted from the installer CD's in any way? i have a full intsall of jaguar (10.2.4), so if it's not possible, could someone send the apps to me...

    dual video display with radeon 8500

    hey all, i posted in a thread a while back about flashing the rom for a PC ATi AGP radeon 8500 (128 MB DDR) for the mac. i have been using it since then with no trouble. HOWEVER (isn't there always a "however?"), i thought that if i were to use a DVI-to-VGA adapter on the DVI port on the card...

    the definitive 150 features list

    not to call apple liars but i want to have a list of all 150 features. we all know the big ones, so if you found a tiny feature improvement, list it here so we can all see it. and i think counting iChat as a "feature" is ok in this case. 1.) Quartz Extreme 2.) Rendevous 3.) iChat 4.)...

    ATI radeon 7500 for mac?

    in light of the impending release of jaguar, i've decided i would like to take advantage of quartz extreme. i have a G4/400 and i already have dual displays, but i have two ATI Rage Pro 128s, so i obviously need to replace them. i very recently (in the last 16 hours) purchased an ATI Radeon 8500...

    powerbook (pismo) processors

    does anyone know of a good, reputable place from which to buy used or refurbished pismo processor daughter cards? i can't really afford a new one (the 400 is like, 500 bucks, and i think the 500MHz is 625 or so). powerlogix has the new bluechip G4 for pismo, but they need a working processor...
