Finally Figured out how to RightSize piccies wiyh the F-Spot Program in the ubuntu NetBook Remix I've been running on HP_Mini ever since XP-Home3 pulled a typical "MicroSoftOS_Meltdown!" FEH!

. . . whatever . . . here b d firstest pic scaled down on HP_Mini!

This is my own version of a practical/useful MiniQuadraFeetsMac™ Hack! [;)] ]'>

My Q700 triplets were complaining incessantly about the awful condition of whatever was left of the handful of remaining HoChiMinhs they had between the three of them. Ultimately, that didn't matter, because they'd been tasked to support a MacShelf™ and their rubber feetswear was NOT up to the task of keeping their lil' air intake vents functional while they were to be sitting on the carpeted floor . . . soooooo . . .

The sneaky little MetroSexualMiniQuadras wanted to do it up in BIG TIME Retro-CAMP! }:)

Their new feetswear was specifically designed to be much larger/higher than that of their sibling's, my Quadra 950 has pathetically dainty lil' feetlets for such a MachoMan! The pesky trio kept badgering me to let them go HighHeeledDiscoPlatformStylin' to boot! (so to speak :o) ) So, naturally enough, I took the project way over the top, with industrial/adjustable height, Hex Head Heels and a platform heel setup made out of scraps from some of the MacFurniture™ they were destined to support.

Anyways, while i'm on vacation, I'll try to post some piccies of the hack process.

All kidding aside, . . . < 8-o . . . did I just say that!?! ::) . . . > this is a great little trick to make practical use of part of a 68k collection, while retaining the ability to hook 'em up and run 'em without burning them up by blocking their air vents in the carpet . . . and BTW, leveling the shelf, with Q700 panache, all at the same time!
