Can anyone give me an opinion comparing the display quality (color, sharpness) of the Apple 15" Flat Panel Display with the older 17" Colorsync? I now have a 17" Colorsync that I a…
Whatever you do, dont use any other resolution then the optimal one on LCD's.
Borrow a Powerbook and find out how it looks.
I have a 15" Studio display closeby and the quality is s…
he's right, The flat panel has similar quality, the color can be a bit off though if you do not calibrate a profile for the display. Don't settle for the Apple Default FPD profile…

I have an Entrega 7 port USB hub. My Epson 740 works great with it as does my Keyspan USB/Serial adapter for my PalmPilo, my Iomega Zip drive, and my Umax 1220U scanner. However m…
hi there,
sorry, but that's the big drawback of using usb for high-bandwith devices. usb can't push enough data to the farther devices fast enough to keep up with their needs. when…
