Sidestepping the issue that Quadraman and Bunsen are so angry about (for the record, I'm with Bunsen, but I'll say no more but that) If Contiki gets ported to that, I am getting o…

Since exporting our old computers to developing nations was mentioned, here's a video that someone put together to explain a bit about how it works:

Not going to happen, unfortunately. ALL PCMCIA USB cards require CardBus, and unfortunately unlike the 2400 and 3400, there is no way that the 1400 can be modified to take CardBus …

Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to accrue USB functionality on a 1400 through the use of PC cards, and if so, what is the make and model of the card?

I had this happen with a Pismo. The ATI Rage chip came loose causing the screen to get garbled. Applying pressure to the bottom would make it better. When I got the logic board …

Hmm, thats interesting because I have yet to get this issue and I have never heard this issue in the 500MHz models. BTW can someone please help me find dual screening in OS X on m…

Not the 500MHz, it's the iBook's between 600MHz (16MB of VRAM) and early G4 iBooks. Click to expand... The 500MHz iBooks certainly suffer from this problem, too (and it's not u…

I know a dude with a solder rework station that fixes those. He strips, fluxes and resolders the BGA parts using nice machinery and offers warranty. Although $150 is a bit much to…

The problem with most developing nations is that the previous government ran up huge debts (most african nations) leaving the people to sell resources to try and keep up with the p…

People seem to think it's easy going into a poor country that has nothing and turning into a new high tech state. It took hundreds of years for Western nations to reach that point …

You're an idiot

Here's the first piece of reasonably accurate reporting I've managed to track down. Judging by the comment thread below it though, people are still failing to grasp that they are …

Motivations and, frequently, perceived motivations are very. One of my old roommates would always shop at big box stores and would always make purchases on credit or debit cards. …

This is ridiculous. Someone wants to do something good in the world, and we all want to bag their motives or claim that we know better.

In this sort of case, I think it's fair to bundle in a Canadian with Americans. Our countries may be different, but there are sufficient similarities and enough wannabe Americans …

Well 5 out of 6 are American at least. Click to expand... In the sense that they are from the Americas, yes ... II2II; I'm not calling Canada a developing nation. I'm just po…

Uh, since when did Canada get on the list of developing nations? Click to expand... Looking around me, it seems an honest mistake.
