I think he's lost the password, not the Powerbook.

Thanks for the info and, I really did buy it, from a friend who is currently on a cruise. This is my first venture into the Apple world (25 sorry years of IBM-MS) at his insistence…

Allegedly...

Come on, people! Lots of people buy used gear. Just because you didn't show prudent judgement and got your iPod stolen doesn't mean that all used gear is stolen. tooki

Hey, DavisH was nice about it--maybe a bit overly suspicious, but still polite, which is cool. I'd be overly suspicious if my iPod got stolen, too. Port Arthur, welcome to the Mac…

I should have clarified my previous post, I believe Port Arthur! I was just implying that not everyone is straightforward and trustworthy. I was (past tense) a little apprehensive…

I suspect that isn't possible, since it defeats the whole purpose of referrers. However, you can use a proxy of some sort. Eg I don't really recommend doing this, but you can piggy…

I like your thinking! ;-) How would I do the same thing that the script does in php? Just do a location header with the url? That way, I could put it on my school's servers, and …

I guess you have the right idea. I don't know much about php. You could also do it with a meta redirect.

The Referer header is sent at a browser level, but it's an important part of the HTTP standard, and it's not something that JavaScript is allowed to mess with. If it were, the secu…

YOu can still buy an internal one from several places. If you are mechanically inclined you could install it yourself.

If you're not afraid to open up your mini, the Pioneer K05 laptop drive is one of the drive models used by Apple and is fully supported in OS X.4.3. It's only an 8x but it does sup…

sixdoubleseven: Before you open your mini, make sure that you are aware that your warranty will be voided. WHy don't you try selling your Mac Mini on ebay and buy a new one with Su…

I'm not comfortable in cracking open the mini myself, regardless of warranty issues. Would Apple sell me a superdrive and install for a price? I'll probably end up buying an ex…

I was just browsing the "Mac mini setups" thread and noticed the last pic posted has a stack under the mini. Does anyone know if there are any planse to instroduce an external dv…

Unless you're asthetically stuck on the mac mini, you could buy a Superdrive and stick it in an external case for around $100. Maybe less if you shop smart. (Shop S mart... you got…
