If you get Q3 of RTCW would you please be able to post some benchmarks, with the exact configuration you are using... I want to see how this new Radeon 7500 holds up... Thanks

Hi All, I have my PB 500 connected directly to my cable modem, using DHCP mode in the TCP/IP settings. Under conditions which I cannot replicate, but which happens a number of ti…

From what I hear about cable modems, they do not have static IP numbers. They have dynamic IP numbers. This might be what is causeing a problem. The change in IP numbers might b…

Yes, Macs can handle Dynamic IP Addresses. That is how Road Runner is set up. In the TC/IP control panel, my settings are connect via Ethernet, configure using DHCP server. Road Ru…

Crow, cable modems can either use DHCP or statics IP addresses - it's all how the server-side is setup. My Earthlink/Charter cable modem uses Static IP. Static IP is more reliable…

I live in LA. I just got a cable modem. I just got Airport. Seperately they are great bits of technology but... I can't get the Airport to work with the cable modem. Apple says it …

every time my powerbook seeks for information , I can hear the cdromdrive speeding up. When it speeds up , the whole powerbook is waiting for it. I don't like it. It is irritating.…

Having to wait while dvd rom drive spins up is a pain, but its the price you pay for battery life. If the cd was constantly spinning at full whack it would drain the battery in no …

This is probably a dumb question, but can I plug in my Pismo RAM into my WallStreet until my Pismo arrives??

Anyone?? Anyone??

No. Wall Street RAM is too slow for today's PowerBooks. (Not to mention that it voids the warranty.)

That's not what I asked. Can i put my PISMO RAM into my WallStreet?

Anyone know?!??!

Pismo RAM is too fast for Wall Street PowerBooks. It will make everything unstable and void the warranty.

No!! You cannot do that! Pismo and Wallstreet use completely diferent ram standards. Pismo uses PC100 and Wallstreet uses SDRAM.

Excuse me...I know for a fact that you can plug pismo ram into a wallstreet. PC100 RAM is SDRAM. PC100 will slow down to 66MHz, just like 60ns ram will slow down to 70ns---same p…

I knew it, but I wanted confirmation. Thanks!!!

would it therefore follow that pismo ram will work in a lombard? seems a better deal as far asI can tell b/c cheaper and then maybe useable in a new computer in the future.

Yeah, that seems to be how SDRAMs work. They just run at the lowest supported speed when multiple modules are detected.

Just to make sure it is clear: PC66, PC100 and PC133 are all SDRAM. PC133 (not yet used on Macs) and PC100 SDRAM are backwards-compatible. "Standard" SDRAM is 66MHz (and is occasio…

Thanks tooki. That's what I thought originally when I posted this discussion. Anyway, I don't have to worry about it anymore cause my Pismo arrived today and I'll just put my new …

My IE 4.5 used to be a dog ! Very slow web-page refresh. Afetr I installed OE 5.0, (without any problems what-so-ever), my IE 4.5 browser is screaming fast ! Is it my imaginatio…

Same thing happened to me, although it wasn't quite as drastic. I just got a cable modem about 2 weeks, and I had noticed that netscape seemed to be considerably faster at renderi…

WOW! For me IE 4.5 is *definetly* faster after I installed OE 5.0. It's *much* much faster. I had found IE4.5 to be virtually unusable with my cable modem, but now it's much fast…

IE 4.5 is much faster with Outlook Express 5.0. It has more features than Netscape, too. Now I get more features and faster HTML rendering. I am running Mac OS 9.0 on a Rev. A i…
