Hi All, I gotta prob and I need to see if anybody else has seen anything like this: smudges _under_ my screen! I'm not talking about the infamous finger-grease-from-keyboard prob…

Yeah, I know what you'r talking about. It looks like a defect on my screen, like a bump. It shows best on startup, a darkish circle around the center of my screen. It doesn't bothe…

I was noticing a faint yellowish spot, especialy when on a purely white screen. Then I looked at other parts of the screen and realized that the spot moved. (yep. The spot's in …

Well, I've a dark "smudge/line" at the bottom left of my screen after moving my PB around...tried shaking the PB to get rid of it but to no avail. It looks more like a shadow of a…

Well, I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one with this problem (Coyote, it's not the blind spot, but worth mentioning, thanks. My spot doesn't move :-) I'm on a bit of a deadl…

hi, I want to hook up more than 1 monitor to my powerbook pismo. The first monitor I buy is a Sony Wega 21", the next one probably an apple studiodisplay (does anyone know if you c…

As far as I know the PowerBook will only support one extra screen but I'm waiting for someone to prove me wrong as usual!

Each monitor requires a video card.... powerbooks have only one.... My PB 300 can only do video mirroring and also the screen must be open because of heat issues... as for a seco…

2000 PowerBooks �CAN! drive two monitors at the same time. All you have to do is put the Pismo to sleep. Wait a good 15 seconds. Then attach the new monitor. And lastly open(wa…

yah, i inadvertently discovered the two monitor thingy during an in-class demo...i dont think they quite understood why their teacher was jumping up and down and such...my only con…

OK... I sat down and started creating a 3D model of my G4. It was taking too long so I just used some Apple images of the G4 and modified them in Photoshop. The designs aren't exac…

Wow very nice, cool ideas.... A slot loading dvd rom drive is what Apple should have done a long time ago. Anyway what program did you use to do the 3d in? Cimema maby, or Maya? -…

Very nice, suhail. I would add onboard AirPort to the new Duo, however. AirPort is vital on a subnotbook. With AirPort in both machines, you could also "dock" with non-docking mac…

Hey, good ideas! Here's my take on things... I think the dock is too functional, and is basically a computer in itself. I would understand if the subnotebook was like a PDA, much …

Thanx for the input http://forums.macnn.com/cgi-bin/smile.gif Here is a diagram of where the components reside. The Upgrade-Slot on the old Duo held a Co-Processor. To take the up…

Maybe you can have a second processor in the dock, of exactly the same frequency setting. Multiprocessor notebook when docked... (crowd cheers)... http://forums.macnn.com/cgi-bin/…

I'm sure you can put dual processors in the Dock since the current G4s can handle duals in the same processor slot. But I don't think its possible to have the G3 active when the Do…

No. I mean this: If you have one processor in the PowerBook, why not have a second one (identical processor) in the dock?

That was a problem I faced, too. I don't quite know how to make them "talk" to each other, frankly. http://forums.macnn.com/cgi-bin/smile.gif Anway, I don't think it's going to h…

In another thread, I asked about Powerbook G3 must haves. I mentioned that I wanted to add a DVD-ROM drive to my 333mHz Powerbook. (I could not afford a 400mHz version yet I want…

To clarify, what I meant was that there is no way to use an Apple DVD-ROM drive with a PowerBook unless the PowerBook came with that DVD-ROM drive (because of the decoder kit). VS…

OK, I think I am getting with the program. Had I ordered my 333mHz Lombard from Apple and had the DVD-ROM drive upgrade installed, it would have been $300 for the DVD-ROM drive an…
