thanks, i'm going to call tomorrow and see what the deal is. it's hard to let it go though.

As another data point, i just sent my 12" in again after waiting a few months with the same box, and it came back 2 days later. No call in or anything. And it looks like it might a…

Grr. Maybe it's already supposed to be this way, but, I'm about to kill somebody over this. There are 2 settings for volume. 1. Alert Sounds which I have set at 25% 2. Overall S…

Nobody else has had their hair straightened by a 90db alert tone from an app?

I'm kind of in the same boat as you. Long time PC user who recently got into Macs. Got a desktop G4 to try out and loved it, so I got a G5. Last Friday, I decided to replace my…

the problems with DreamweaverMX2004 seem to be macromedia problems. It runs terribly slow in both Jaguar and Panther. Seems to be nothing but bloatware. Pickup a copy of the pre…

I've got the 1.25 GHz Al and the 550 MHz Ti both paid for with other people's money, so I don't get too worried about having to send them off to early retirement. If I were really…

Remember, Apple sells a couple of million macs per year, and you don't hear from 99% of the happy users. You hear from the small percentage of people who are upset about somethin…

jasonsRX7, I may be in the process of switching as well, though my trajectory is the opposite of yours (started with a PB, seriously considering a G5). Until my 12" PB arrived 2 …

My switch to a mac has been horrible. For over $3k I am seriously disappointed in this machine. I am setting it aside to just use at work, and ordering a new pc laptop for persona…
