Don't worry about people on the board being jerks, either. There are just people like that here. There are some helpful, polite people as well.

Yeah, don't worry about people on the broad being jerks. There are just people that just quit smoking like that here. I hope I was at least a bit helpful anyway.

I had a little incident on Friday - blue screen of death. I thought the hard drive with my system folder had failed because Tech Tool didn't even recognize the drive existed. Dis…

Hi! 1) You used the RAID from OS X or is this a hardware RAID system? You won't be able to boot from a STRIPED RAID unless it is a hardware RAID, and not from a MIRRORED RAID if y…

to put ownership back "on". Thanks for letting me know about the security issue. I made the RAID using the disk utility in OSX. I won't try to put a system folder on it now that…

I'm running from a RAID 0 software RAID made in Disk Utility right now, and have been for months. Worked in 10.3 and continues to work in 10.4.

If anyone can help I would appreciate it. I have an emac and the shuffle isn't recognized, but it works on other computers. I have all the correct software. Anyone?

Did you reboot the compute? <just kidding> Try using the ports on your keyboard or using the "iPod Shuffle Dock" as this may fix your problem with the eMac. It is suggeste…

Yeah, Apple just sucks like they said in the other thread. They are doing the right thing! as usual. It's still one of the best computer companies if not THE best in the marketpl…

My God! Do you ever pull your head out of Steve Job's ass?

Is anyone surprised? Rev A models always tend to be the buggiest, especially when it involves a change as the iMac went through from G4 to G5. Now, I'd be interested to hear about…

What else would you call them?

I think Rev A is a convenient reference. While technically a "Revision A" would be the first revision (not the first model), I think there's no need to be overly pedantic about it…

Feel free to call me retarded, but does "scrambled video" and "no video" basically mean the screen messes up? My G5 iMac is totally stuffed, the LCD erupts in a display of pyrotech…

Well my revision B was useless too so it's not just a revision A thing. Any mention of the capacitor problem specifically?

Did they just add the two year condition, or did the original poster copy it and forget to put that in? In any case, Apple now says that it will cover this problem for two years fr…

I say this was way past due. If I were an owner of an affected iMac I would have been totally disgusted by this lengthy denial. Apple knew about this problem long ago but would adm…

Any Mac with video problems will be fixed by Apple... as long as it is under warranty. The ones out of warranty better hope they have serial numbers in those ranges. Everyone else…
