Congrats on the new iBook! You'll love it
You can definitely put Tiger on it. I had Tiger on a 500 MHz G3 iBook and it ran fine. If you don't like memory-heavy things like Dashb…

Another quick question. My girlfriend has a brand new iBook G4 which came with Tiger installed. Can I user her boot disks to put Tiger on my iBook G3?

What kind of printer do you have?
Cheap printers and pretty much all inkjet printers currently available use `host-based printing' which means the host (your computer) has to do …
Why does printing use so much of the CPU? — #3
The ones I use regularly are Canon inkjet printers, sorry I should have said that. I take your point though, they are just dumb boxes after all. Thanks for the info.
Why does printing use so much of the CPU? — #4
Just one last bit of clarification: you will have the same effect with inkjet printers by HP, Epson and Lexmark (except for very few, e. g. some HP Business Inkjets).
Also, very …

Why does printing use so much of the CPU? — #6
Never noticed that, I guess the 166 MHz RISC inside of my 'old' LaserJet 2100 TN is guilty here :-/ Could be it?… since there is no comparison between it (CPU inside LaserJet) and …

Why does printing use so much of the CPU? — #9
Probably if you buy a large expensive inkjet it will have its own processor. My school recently got some 13x19" capable HP 2800 inkjets that most certainly do their own processing …
Why does printing use so much of the CPU? — #10
Well, there are only a few. HP's Business Inkjets (the new K550 and the older 2xxx line) do have its own `brains', the same goes for the not-so-popular Canon Business Inkjets.

Anyway to save or download a real player .rm file? I know there is an app from Ambrosia that can capture video but it chokes my machine (G4 450MHz sawtooth).

Leaving Thunderbird running seems to prevent my G5 from going to sleep on it's own (due to no action on the keyboard or mouse for a specified time). Short of quitting Thunderbird e…

First of all, nice Mac!!!! I see your specs in the post.
Are you sure it's T-Bird causing the problem? I don't have that problem w/it on my G4 iBook.
Hmm, I'm running t-bird 1.5.…
