i need to get noise-deadening headphones.

I tried the Sennheiser earbud type headphones (MX 400, i think, £20 from Maplin), took them back and got my money back. The sound wasnt that great, and the wire was too thick and s…

Are you talking about these?

I don't know why anybody would use the Apple earbuds... I think they are the weak link in the whole iPod experience. I've had 4 ipods and don't even open the earphone package anymo…

hmmm... so do you reckon i could get this looked at under the warranty, perhaps after the next ibook update occurs ? or is that just pushing my luck? sminch

I've seen it on some iBooks, but not all, most or mine. Just another shining example of Apple's stellar quality control

i was just sifting around in the powerbook forum and this guy mentioned what he called 'backlight bleeding', which is the perfect name for somehting i've noticed on my ibook but, e…

If'n you want fancy colors. I use the foam covers also, as they make the buds more likely to stay in my ears. Since no one else seems to use them, at least that I know, I always h…

Yeah I've never used them...I put the first ones on when I got my iPod, they fell off later that day and I never bothered to screw with them again.

Why even use the covers? I never have... Chris

Here goes the shortest thread in MacNN history. I found them myself at Radio Shack. They have two different options: the usual foam covers and silicon covers. The foam covers cost …

I'm going through those foam earbud covers like anything lately and, short of spending $40 on another set of headphones at the Apple store I can't figure out where I can get a hold…

I purchased a Canon scanner quite some time ago. I recently had occasion to try to use the OCR software that came with it, which is OmniPage SE. It won't open, giving me a "possibl…

WRT54G++ I have used this in multiple situations with my trusty iBook. It is such a solid router that it has spawned an entire subculture devoted to tweaking it ;-)

I've quit pokerroom.com because it just didn't 'feel' right. I was up by a lot but I kept seeing some strange goings on (which I also reported) I now use VP7 to play partypoker or …

I most certainly hope they do as well. But like you said, the odds of it happening are probably so slim they most likely just ignored it, I'm willing to bet (pun intended) that t…

Upgrading firmware through the web interface of a Linksys router hasn't always been there. In fact, it's a fairly recent addition, and one that is a real boon to Mac users, since …

WRT54G here. Mojo - You can upgrade the firmware from a Mac. Through the web interface. I have done it many times...

My vote goes to the Linksys WRT54G. Endless config options, great reception, cheap price, very stable.

You know, it's a funny thing about wireless routers: there are success and horror stories for every brand. I would have been happy to stick with Linksys if it hadn't caused me pro…

SBC's 2Wire equipment doesn't really come with any more support for Macs than Linksys' equipment does. In truth, there's not much "Mac-specific" about networking; just where you c…

The company that I work for, OnDeckTech, recommends Linksys. We are a Mac based consulting firm for home users. We consistently install and support Linksys on Mac based systems. …
