Just curious, what colour did you get?

Like I said, they may have changed dimensions from the version I have and the one you have, SuperGroove. But I got one on March 03, 2003, from REI, and here are some pictures of it…

The place where my power adapter plugs into the PowerBook G4 seems to be loose inside. The plug fits in securely, but there is considerable play. I could live with that except t…

Hi folks. Well, I've learned a lot in the month since switching but I need to ask a newbie question once again. Now that all of my eggs are in a portable/more fragile basket, I'd…

Hi, I have a Lacie external d2 120GB and it's a excelent equipment. It's my backup (misic, pictures, soft installers, etc, etc) and I install a panther to use when I need repair …

When I got my PB12 in October, I decided I needed a couple external drives - one for data (all those movies, photos and songs can really add up) and one for backup. I decided to ge…

Another vote for CCC, just be sure to get the latest version that's necessary for running with Panther.

Carbon Copy Cloner is without a doubt the best "bang for the buck" backup solution! Also, depending on how valuable your data is (e.g., work files, financial data etc.) be wary of …

Thanks for the responses guys. A question re: CCC. Lets say I've cloned my machine to an external drive with CCC then for whatever reason I put a new blank harddrive in my PB (due…

.Mac. is your friend. You can use the backup app to backup what you need to a drive or to Disc. Also with iSync your addressbook and Safari bookmarks are all backed up. IMO I do…

If you have Panther (which I assume your PowerBook came with) you don't even need CCC. Just boot from the system software DVD (not strictly necessary, but advisable) and when the …

CCC is simpler, easier, and it allows sequencial backups where only modified files get copied. I have to admit, I've been living with two copies of my files stored on HDs for seve…

Is there any speculation in the pipeline to what kind of graphics card could be included in the G5 powerbook. I'm hoping that I'll be able to play World of Warcraft with some pret…

My guess is Whatever ATI Is Up To, seeing as how the high-end PowerBooks tend to get whatever ATI's best happens to be at the time. tooki

ati 9700 mobility

9700? Right. That's a chip on its way out, and I don't believe there was ever a Mobility version. It all kinda depends on when the PB G5 design is frozen, and what is available at…

Let's hope it'll be the M12... if that isn't too far off in the future, that is. Quote: Well, our next mobile product is M11, which isn�t too far off, which will deliv…

Has anyone tried the Multi Drive upgrade from MCE Technologies: http://store.mcetech.com/Merchant2/m...de=PBG4DVDR2-A Has anyone heard anything? Pros/Cons? Thanks

Just a little note, DVD-RAM is very incompatible with normal DVD readers and most DVD-Burners. You might as well get the superdrive, and try to find two sided media, that would eq…

How do I make the 'F' keys default to 'F1' through 'F12' instead of having to push 'Fn' each time?
