Hi, I am new to Macs, and I am hoping someone can help me with a problem I am recently experiencing on my PowerBook G4.
System is as follows
Machine Name: PowerBook G4 15"
Machine Model: PowerBook5,6
CPU Type: PowerPC G4 (1.2)
Number Of CPUs: 1
CPU Speed: 1.67 GHz
L2 Cache (per CPU): 512 KB
Memory: 1 GB
Bus Speed: 167 MHz
System Version: Mac OS X 10.4.3 (8F46)
Kernel Version: Darwin 8.3.0
The Powerbook is is plugged into a 23" Apple HD Display (previous model), Apple wireless bluetooth keyboard and kingston wireless bluetooth mouse.
For some reason, my Airport connection just dies after the computer is woken from sleep mode (at least I think this is the case) and I get the spinning beachball. I can't forcequit any application, and when I run "top" in the console I see the following information.

thanks in advance
