The servers are purposely throttled, as these are run on home connections.

You has never been that. It's always bee Yaow.. Well, they did get better.

wackymacs, is your server located in a residential area? I can't seem to download from it any faster than 10 to 20 kilobytes per second. The mirror is no better; it started at roug…

Except that only works if you already have a G4 Tower, and RedJack states he has a G4 Powerbook. The upgrades are also pretty pricey, so you're still looking at around $100-500 fo…

that may very well be, but G5's are still not cheap and considering how much more powerful even the first-gen 32bit Intels are (unless you plan on getting a last-generation G5, whi…

Intel. I'm not even sure why a G5 is still a consideration at this point. Unless you just really like the PPC platform, 2 internal HD limit, purchased obsolescence, and knifing y…

I fired up Console and it says my video card is too old. Never have I had it say that Click to expand... try booting in verbose mode and you may see that message again. It isn…

My Pismo had it's stock 20GB Toshiba until about 6 months ago when it decided to not spin at all. Still, thats long for a laptop drive without the sudden motion sensor if you ask m…

Those Toshiba drives are lemons. I had the same 30GB in an iBook G4 (mid-2005); it lasted only two years. The guy who sold me a new one acted as if the drives had a fairly high fai…

None of those things worked, I tried them, and the Pram thing isn't an issue because the pram batter is gone and the factory battery that powers the thing is removed. I managed to …

I'll take it if you don't want it.

Christopher, What I would do is first is reset the P-RAM (Command + Option + P + R). Hold those 4 buttons down on the keyboard, until you hear the startup chime about 3 times. I…

I do know AppleWorks does pay attention to that switch. You could conceivably use the switch for other things, as it just flags a certain address in memory. I doesn't actually do a…

It's not my recording, but discovering and listening to the online clip the other day finally inspired me (after some 12 years as a Newton user!) to install the macintal.pkg, talkt…

I've got speech enabled on mine too. Its kinda fun to have it read stuff. It will also speak the temperature.

Didn't the Quad G5's have the max RAM of 16GB? Click to expand... You're right. All the older ones topped out at 4 or 8Gb.
