what you really need is what's called an "AAUI Tranceiver" (sp?) as far as i know, all powermacs shipped w/ ethernet, but the earlier ones, such as your 6100, didn't have a nor…
Asante made one for the longest time, EN/SC. But as far as I knew, the drivers for it were NOT Open Trasnport compliant. And if I can extrapolate what you're trying to do, I'd gues…
On the New iMacDV, Apple says that you can connect a device to one of the firewire ports and capture analog video from a VCR. They said it was called the Sony DV-AV1. I've looked…
Its called a Sony DVMC-DA1 and it converts analog signal to digital signal (firewire) on the fly. There is actually a newer model too, its the DVMC-MS1. I have the MS1, and it wo…
I have the DVMC-DA1. I paid $371.74 before TAX from Troxell Communications - 272-0440, but I work for an education so this might be and education only price.

Can somebody tell me what the maximum length for a firewire segment is? I read in Macworld that a firewire segment can be 72 meters long, however, Orange Micro claims that you need…

I'm going to be connecting a video camera via firewire to my B&W G3 like this: (Sony DCR-PC1)+(15 Foot FireWire Cable)+(Orange Micro FireWire Repeater)+(15 Foot Fire Wire Cable…
Why do they make s-video cables that are 30 feet long when the spec says 6 feet or less?

I tried many times to add another USB trackball or wheel mouse (different brands) to my B&W 400 G3 which already have an ADB trackball (Logitech Trackman Marble) attached to it…
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…
Thanks for the reply, that's what I thought. I understand about the Avid capture needing all the bandwith, but I thought my CDR at a slower speed setting would be OK. Oh well, I'm …
In my older mac, a Performa 630CD, it doesn't agknowledge the printer driver installation in the chooser.

I want either the HP 895cse or the HP 895cxi to use with my new iMac. I can get the cxi for $20.00 cheaper. What is the difference? I have looked at the specs of both and they a…
Most likely it is the same thing packaged differently to prevent price matching among retailers; Apple did something similar a while back with the Performas, selling the 637 to one…
They had different software packages bundled with them. One had business software and paper samples while the other had home software and paper samples.
The hardware is the same.

I'm wondering whether I should buy a new usb keyboard or whether I should use a USB to ADB adaptor with my old keyboard. If not any recommendations on USB keyboards?
there is an ergonomic Mac ADB keyboard w/trackpad here: http://www.adessoinc.com/egpdtmn.htm
but you'd need a ADB/USB adapter... not a great expense for the adapter, i think they'…
Most ADB keyboard's power buttons won't work through an adapter. You will have to turn on the system using the power button on the tower. If it's on the floor, it could be pretty…
I just upgraded from a Beige G3 to a G4/450 and was in the same position as you. I had been using the stock ADB Beige keyboard & a Kensington Tubro Mouse. I bought a Griffin Te…
To wjpjr-so how did you get your G4? Mine's been on order since september! Hope it's all it's cracked up to be. It seems that the conclusion appears to be to buy a USB keyboard to …
