Turns out that the Network browser crash is a bug not a flaw i got the same freeze from the iMac DV SE so i am guessing that the rest of the crashes were similar bugs in the O…

Dlink suck - I have wasted many hours trying to configure that equipment: routers, access points, you name it. It's just flaky, you do the same thing over and over and over, even c…

With extreme difficulty. It's one of those things that gets lumped in with 'MLB failure' as the only remaining (but unspecific) cause of malfunction. When you have eliminated the…

I am puzzled by the references to the <8GB spectre. Ryoohki is writing about OS 9.2.2, having suspended his use of the formerly installed 10.2.5. I'll not deny that the li…
