Or perhaps you could execute a terminal program instead (grep?), which would be more efficient than AppleScript. Alternatively, you could embed code in you document that would auto…

Well, this morning a glass of water got spilled into the pro keyboard for my G5. Brilliant maneuver right? It spilled all over the desk, all over a bunch of things. I quickly…

stupid pro keyboard dead? or stupid pro, keyboard dead? just joshin' good luck

Sigh. I don't think Applecare covers spillage. I refurbed an old pro keyboard from the G4/400 and removed the old keycaps, cleaned the mess up and put newer keys from a keyboard …

I'd wait a while longer. Maybe by Monday you will be back in business. I had an older pro keyboard that i got from a friend that barely worked due to chocolate, soda and a variety …

doubled!

So is it a "Pro Keyboard" or just "Keyboard"? (Look on the back.) G5's all shipped with the non-pro one. Anyhow, 10 hours isn't anywhere near long enough for it to dry out to the…

I second tooki's suggestion. Practically all keyboards sold today use capacity switches (including the Apple Keyboard and the Pro Keyboard) -- and water or moisture might render th…

what about pouring some silica gel into the keyboard? Maybe it'll help absorb the water sooner, and after a few days just shake the balls out

New ones are dirt cheap, even here in 'Rip Off' England. If it doesn't work after a couple of days, just buy a new one. Its no biggy.

I ended up buying one out of the refresh bin at the Apple store for $19 over the weekend. IF I'm lucky the old one might dry out enough to use it for my old G4 - it was in pret…

AppleInsider is rehashing the 13" widescreen iBook rumours: Apple's Front Row media experience coming to iBook line They're still talking about: Core Solo Yonah 1.67 GHz 13" wide…

Same here. I'd spring the extra $500-$600 for a Core Duo over a Core Solo for the stuff I'd be doing on my new Mac portable, assuming this MacBook will be $999 and a theoretical 1…

The problem with using Core Solo is the pricing... by dropping a core you only save $32 ($274 for single core 1.67 + chipset, $306 for dual core 1.67 + chipset), but you take a hug…

I'm just guessing here, but I think they'd go with the dual core, but use the same or similar plastic case and maybe knock off a few of the "pro" items off the ibook. Smaller scre…

I agree... for only $32 more for a Core Duo, Apple better not cripple the next iBook. But you know they will.

they'd be stupid not to include magsafe into any future portables, especially consumer portables since they're more likely to be used in bed, on the floor, kitched table, coffee ta…

I also agree MagSafe will be on the new iBooks/MacBooks. However, while I think it's a nice feature, I don't consider it a must-have like Firewire 400. I'd like to see an iSight i…

I would like an ibook - does anyone know when it'll come out?

I would HATE to have an apple product associated with the word Celeron. YUK! The word celeron just conjures up utter crappy processors which no matter how fast they are clocked at,…
