It seems fairly obvious to me that the Leopard shown on apple.com is not giving us the full show (in addition to the fact that, you know, they *said* this wasn't all that Leopard w…

Paul Thurrott is not impressed with Leopard: http://www.internet-nexus.com/

They should have changed their banners to read "Tiger 2.0." HTML E-mail bloat? Dashboard goodies? iChat backdrops? This is the best they could do? Spaces? Welcome to the part…

Personally, I like the automatic backup part and Mail's Notes feature best. Apparently the New Finder
hasn't been included yet, so there seems to be more to come. I wonder whether…

spaces looks nice, but isnt there an app out there thats just like this?

Was anybody expecting ZFS or Ogg support?

Surely developers have to sign some form of NDA!? It's only a few hours since the keynote, and I've already seen the Leopard preview, and the Mac Pro service manual on a torrent s…

It appears that low end SCSI cards are in very short supply, as everyone is scrambling to get cards for their new G3s. Has anyone done thorough testing on multiple cards to see w…

I bought an Adaptec 2910 for Wintel and I put the driver of the 2906 in system folder. And now I have a low end card (SCSI 2) in my blue G3 for a reasonnable cost. I think the pric…

I just picked up a new beige G3MT and find the CD-ROM very noisy when accessing. At first I thought something was wrong, then it quieted; but gets noisy again when accessing. Is t…

Wade, I have the same machine and the same problem. The problem is not as difficult as it may appear. I understand this problem affects only a percentage of mt 300s but you and i j…

anyone Educated in firewire yet? i know it should theoretically be possible to make a network of firewire devices including computer-- but where do i go for the items needed? how m…

firewire is a buss. It is more an advanced SCSI (but this not technicaly seen, only in use), and less a network-system. Meaning: everything transported over the firewire buss is s…

Well, it certainly is possible, but you'd have to write a library so OT could handle it. Apple has already stated it will not do it, however. I don't see why you couldn't run TCP/I…

Think different - how about a "storage" network and a regular network? It's definitely possible for multiple machines to have access to a storage array via FireWire. Dave -------…

Will the current G3's be upgradable to the G4 (when it comes out this summer)?, and will the rest of the architecture remain equal ie: system/memory bus speeds. I'd like to buy the…

It won't be possible! The G3 is related to the 603e, and the G4 will be "directly" related to the 604e. Similar to how the 68040 was with the 68LC040 that I have in my P640 with …

Smoke signals from different rumor sites within the past 2 or 3 months suggest that a pin compatible G4 may well be in the cards. However, Maxbus and AGP4x may be available on fir…

The current G3s will, in fact, be upgradeable to G4 processors. The first version of G4 will come in the same 360-pin BCA package, so yes it will be upgradeable. Remember that the …

mkbhatia is right. The presentation by Motorola explicitly states that the first version(s) of their G4 will be pin-compatible with G3s. The only minor quibble about mk's post was …

i stand corrected =) -m

If you don't own a Apple g3 now (and you have the cash), you should buy one. Don't sit around and wait for the g4. Once the g4 comes out your will be thinking about holding off fo…

Anyone using the ProMax Digital Video Editor on G3? Please respond with your review/critique. Thanks.

I have 2 iMacs and a cable modem I'd like to share. Typically this type of setup would require a Mac with 2 ethernet cards, one for the cable modem and one to go to the hub where t…
