Also I recall that keyboard in Costco being black, even though all the pictures of it that I see online (I think it's the Microsoft Internet Keyboard Pro) show it in white. I thin…

(I should probably add this as an edit instead all these new posts, but i have tons to say.) Also I do have a FW hard drive. In the fall of 2000 i bought the Pyro enclosure and a…

Waffffffle, yee be a luckier man than I! Can't argue with the prices your getting on a steady stream of Mac laptops. You didn't give the whole story. If you're certain that y…

Yes I do agree that work treats me very well. They give me computers every 2 years, which is great. If only my salary was better... I bought the PowerBook in the sumer of 2000, b…

I think we'll finally see a selection of G4 upgrades for the Pismo over the course of 2002 (if you really want to spend some of your own cash.) When's your next work computer due?

They don't tell us ahead of time when the new computers are coming. I think with the last iBook it was supposed to last 18 months but ended up going for over 2 years. This iBook …

I think this is a Peripherals topic. I wouldn't recommend those Microsoft keyboards with buttons. The buttons don't work with the Mac, and the touch isn't excellent, either. Th…

Those buttons really don't work with a Mac? You sure? Isn't the driver based on USB overdrive? Shouldn't that make all of the buttons capable of doing something?

In recent months, my good old Firewire PowerBook G3 seems to have taken on a mind of its own. Often, when I put it to sleep, it will immediately wake up. Sometimes it then goes b…

New keyboards can be had from www.pbparts.com .

I had a G3 firewire PowerBook for 2 years and took it around the world. After 2 years it still looked and functioned just as it did the day I got it. Now I have a one month-old Ti…

I have a TiBook 400 that I bought used in December, I can't speak for the keeper before me, but I treat it pretty rough. In and out of my tool bag, traveling with it to and from w…

Unless you're treating it like a G3 PowerBook, the G4 PowerBook will hold up to normal wear and tear. I don't think it's typical to have a hinge break after a month. How often are…

I'm treating my TiBook (667) with the utmost of care, and the paint is still chipping off in places. I always remove my watch, so that's not the problem. BTW, the TiPaint is a ripo…

OmniWeb doesn't render it atrociously, either...

IE5.1 for Mac. I just meant that since this new sig is wider the text fits underneath it but doesn't go right from edge to edge, fitting perfectly in that sense. I hope it preserve…

I have three close friends with Ti G4s (667, 550, 500) and all but the 500 have been in the shop for major repairs. Not a good record. PeteWK

I tried it in OmniWeb. It's not perfectly aligned, but I can't please every browser, can I? I would need to make it part of the image, and we all know the admins don't want a sign…

I haven't heard too much about the durability of the Ti Powerbooks but I was going to get one when I got a good deal on my iBook 600 with the 14.1 inch screen. This Machine defina…
