I just received my Mini 1.42GHz on Friday. Installed 1GB of RAM and then fired it up. Though it does boot a few seconds longer than my dual 867MHz G4, the responsiveness of OS X fe…

Hi there, I'm thinking about investing in some of these FX6021 speakers, but I've read a review over on the Apple UK store that they buzz when silent (I know, a slight contradicti…

They look lik ecool speakers and I'm really interested in buying a pair. I'd like to hear a review from a member macnn poster.

I thought about getting the Altec Lansing FX6021 speakers but I couldn't justify their expensive price tag. They do sound quite good and look fantastic but I decided on getting th…

I got the 6021's in yesterday, great sound, no hissing. One feature I didn't notice when I saw them first at the Apple store is that they come with a remote. ~$200 from newegg.

I've had these for about 8 months now ... I was attracted by the decent sound and how well they go with the current cinema displays. No buzz or hiss, and the sound is certainly ver…

I searched for this already, and nothing came up. I want to know if it is possible to change the tension on the latest Apple Wired USB Mice. Can anyone tell me? I went to CompUS…

As far as I know, it's not possible. The difference probably has more to do with age of mouse than anything else. Let's not kid ourselves anyway, on those older mice, that little …

Actually the ring did change the tension... at least... on my mouse anyway.

I know it still depends on the OS, but do you think the standardization of peripherals like BT mice/keyboards, etc...... will occur for the mac once the Intel switch occurs? Then …

Err... No. The only thing that prevents a device from working with a Mac is its drivers, which, unless the device maker is using some assembly code in its drivers, will not make it…

...though I think a lot of Firewire and USB devices won't require much work, right, because they're targeting the bus protocol rather than peculiarities of the CPU and chipset? don…

Does that have anything to do with Open Firmware? If the Intel Macs use BIOS or whatever from Intel, will FireWire peripherals still work, or will FireWire and USB capabilities be…

How long is the cord on an Apple wired mouse? Is it worth is to buy a BT mouse and have the 1.1 module installed in an iBook or just go with the wired mouse?

Depends on your needs.

I don't know exactly how long it is, but it's too short to make it from my keyboard tray to the back of my G5. However, USB cable extenders are pretty cheap. I stole one from my Po…

Mice is also acceptable, and is far more common. The peripheral can be pluralized either way; the actual animal can only be pluralized as "mice". tooki
