I've had a similar problem with different types of symptoms.

Generally, if a CD inserted into the drive doesn't mount, then the eject button doesn't work. Login in and out or a restart either mounts the CD or I can use the eject button held down at start-up to open the drive. (Does the eject button work OK with disks that mount?)

Some CDs won't mount because they have non-standard tinting on the disc or they are scratched in the wrong place. In some cases the OS reports that the CD is unreadable.

My question to you is did the optical drive play up soon after you got the machine or has it been normal for a while then played-up?

I don't think that the device IDs are a problem as they are on different ATA buses, but I'm no expert on ATA.

Haha, I thought you were talking about all the little noises you could turn on when using OS 9. The little sounds it made when opening/closing windows, dragging icons etc. I'll see if I can send you those alert sounds if you want.

I never really understood resolution independence. Can someone explain it in layman's terms?

My father works here, so I have no idea.

There's no reason to run Garageband on a secondary drive, unless of course you're taking a performance hit due to a drive filling up.

But back everything up, multiple copies of .aiff's, .aac's and especially .band's.

What is all this about PAL? Just curious.

The Dell 20" Widescreen has the following connectors

VGA / DVI-D / S-video / Composite / 4 x USB 2.0

which means you could plug a tuner/settop box/TIVO into it by DVI or S-Video. If your Powerbook has DVI, then you would want a DVI Switchbox (fairly pricey) for the best quality on both TV and PBook. THe Dell also does a picture-in-picture thing for watching TV while you computer -- they don't specify but I would guess that that is only on the S-Video or Composite input -- I would be surprised if they do PIP with VGA and DVI.

You would have to deal with sound output separately.

Samsung and Sony have released TV/monitors with built in tuners. The sony 19" unit is part number MFMHT19S

OK then, a little advice.

What would be a good looking way to get an ad out to clients....

Just something quick. I don't want anything fancy or interactive, just something I can fire off in an email....

?

Ok what email client are you using? From what I read it seems that Mail.app doesn't have any options to send HTML emails. Though it is possible with that apple script posted earlier or perhaps a plugin of some sorts. (See you need to be able to change what type of email you are sending from text to html, which you can't really do in Mail.app).

You might want to try another client like Thunderbird. I read that there is an option to send email as HTML. Then all you would have to do is writeup a little html code to display your banner or whatever and then send it.

Of course the images would have to be stored on a server somewhere since sending the images as attachments won't work since most people won't bother opening the attacment.

a beta of tiger crashed and thats not on stupid videos :p

But it did not crash that badly. I mean did you see that? The screen flickered and the blue screen of death came up!

Could you describe what values you're trying to teach children by designing an old fashioned newspaper?

Why not try to develop a new kind of newspaper or service?

You're not going to print it out on an old-fashioned press after all.

So what's the point you're trying to make?

does it make any sense that only real places in tarrant county to get apple stuff are southlake and the bestbuy in grapevine? wouldnt it make sense for bestbuy to put them in somewhere else?

My thought exactly. I would rather have a root canal than drive from SW Ft. Worth to Southlake.

So why don't they make these anymore?

They have MR now.

That was the first thing I thought of! :D

To be honest, I think permanently branding yourself with ANY company logo is idiotic.

Anyone with experience with this product?

I have a G5 that is functioning in a room without a cable hookup. I purchased a Rosewill RNX-N2X USB Wireless Adapter (http://www.rosewill.com/products/1120/productDetail.htm) to connect to my G5 to my wireless router. The install seemed to go well. I setup a profile, entered by password, and the The Rosewill Utility says I have a connection to my router however, in my Mac Network System Preferences page, the USB connection says "USB Ethernet (en1) has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect". Indeed, I am not connected. I have selected Configure using DHCP.

I have read the manual which is not helpful. I plan on calling Rosewill tech support later, but thought I would throw this question out in the meantime hoping to get some easy configuration adjustment advice. Thanks!

Do you have a price range for the PC Laptop?

Would a Celeron M kinda recent laptop do?

(like your sig.... ;) )

My MacBook Pro wont burn DVDs properly well wont burn my Xbox 360 Games right. Every time I attempt to burn a game I finish the burn with this error

I heard changing the book type would fix this but I dont know how

or is my drive broken?

Help?

Carracho is the only really good P2P. Give it a shot.

Er, nevermind, I just found the answer.

Carry on... :o

Heh, I was just sorting out my console collection today and found my 'Cube. Awesome little machine that was. But yea you should probably get;

Metroid Prime 1+2
Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes
Mario Kart Double Dash is okay
Smash Bros Melee is brilliant
F-Zero GX is brilliant
Viewtiful Joe and Resident Evil 4 are pretty fun too
Mario Sunshine? It's got some great moments but it's not as good as Mario 64 or Mario Galaxy.

Jump over to XDA and search. It's there. Not the most fully baked solution yet, but at least it's something.

Here is a list of things that do and do not work. like i said earlier, until google finds a way to update all the phones to the latest OS. Android sucks!!
With that said, a short list of things that DO work.

Radio works fully - Calling, SMS, Data
Bluetooth works for music only.
Wifi works fully.
Sensors work, but may be slow. Run /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha in terminal or via adb, place the phone on a flat surface, and hit Enter. Reboot the phone and sensors will function at normal speed.

What does NOT work ::

GPS
Camera
HW Acceleration in UI and in video, etc.

and 4G (might never work)

If this is acceptable to you, I have a slightly used bridge for sale. You can have it for real cheap.

Do any of these new ipods have a firewire connection??

If not..that's some BS

A bunch of Microsoft's Zune "engineers" (which train do you drive?) live in my building. They're complete jerks, and aggressively vulgar toward anyone they see with an iPod.

I hope they enjoy listening to their precious Zunes while standing in line at the unemployment office.

DIAF, boys and girls.

Muscelnerd tweeted that all iPad 2 jailbreaks would have to be userland. Im glad comex found an exploit...and especially this fast.

Me too, I've been hoping it would happen soon.
Hopefully they find a hardware/low-level exploit so it will be jailbreakable for life. But I know for a fact that would near a release until the iPhone 5 is released and purchasable.

Father Christmas and the Easter Bunny are now working on the jailbreak, not sure of ETA.

What if Al Gore swings by, will that expedite the release?
