Halo played surprisingly well, even with high settings. Sure, there's some stammering in outdoor scenes, but for those I turn down the vid settings a little. By the sound of it, …

permissions repaired fixed the promblem! i shouldn've tried that first!

Joe, you have a private message.

[capitan] howdy so after trying fixes for displaying png's with transparency in IE/PC, I tried this and it actually worked. my client can now see the image transparency, and the d…

no. i don't have the option to re-register. the 'register' button is greyed out. its very weird. i can apply a theme, but it doesn't do anything. un-installing and re-installing…

I wouldn't attribute your "transformation" to the clean install of Tiger in particular--do a clean install of Panther and your Powerbook will be equally "transformed". This happen…

i woke up this morning and found that my register copy of shapeshifter 2.1 stopped working. am i alone in this? i updated from the last version and everything was fine until today…

IF you look at it, 167 MHz bus, in today's PC notebooks is laughable. The G4 has all these limitations that somehow limit its performance, which is why i'm complaining because per…

Mmmmmm... on my 1.5ghz Powerbook I did an 'archive & install' and everything went smoothly... even at reduced speed on this thing, 10.4 is snappy™ - I don't get any spinning be…

i'm thinking of doing a clean install but i don't have the external harddrive space to back everything up.

>9700 Mobility Radeon 256 MB a As long as it fits in a powerbook (height) I'm all for it. That way i will be able to drive the next monster size LCD coming down the pike.

I know the Mac game market is limited, but there is a market. Otherwise, why would Blizzard be making PC/Mac compatible games? Why is Aspyr in business? Doom3 was out on Mac befo…
