Stupid Pro Keyboard Dead — #1

Well, this morning a glass of water got spilled into the pro keyboard for my G5. Brilliant maneuver right? It spilled all over the desk, all over a bunch of things. I quickly…

Stupid Pro Keyboard Dead — #3

Sigh. I don't think Applecare covers spillage. I refurbed an old pro keyboard from the G4/400 and removed the old keycaps, cleaned the mess up and put newer keys from a keyboard …

Stupid Pro Keyboard Dead — #6

So is it a "Pro Keyboard" or just "Keyboard"? (Look on the back.) G5's all shipped with the non-pro one. Anyhow, 10 hours isn't anywhere near long enough for it to dry out to the…

I second tooki's suggestion. Practically all keyboards sold today use capacity switches (including the Apple Keyboard and the Pro Keyboard) -- and water or moisture might render th…

New ones are dirt cheap, even here in 'Rip Off' England. If it doesn't work after a couple of days, just buy a new one. Its no biggy.

Stupid Pro Keyboard Dead — #10

I ended up buying one out of the refresh bin at the Apple store for $19 over the weekend. IF I'm lucky the old one might dry out enough to use it for my old G4 - it was in pret…

[Seti] 9K RAC 1.8M TC Athlon? — #2

That's odd. No way a Pentium D or an Athlon 64 X2 rig would beat a G5 Quad in SETI, let alone by that large of a margin. I was thinking that maybe they were MP systems. But then …

ClearDock or equivalent for Intel Mac? — #4

Well, 2.3.7 is not Universal but PPC only and - surprise surprise - doesn't work on Intel Macs. Are there alternatives? ClearDock doesn't work either (too old)?

ClearDock or equivalent for Intel Mac? — #8
