Does the "getting started" guide talks about installing software from disk images? I think that is one concept that is hard for most Windows users to grasp, that you can drag and drop install in Mac OS. I know it's so intuitive, but most Windows users expect software to mess with the registry...

The iBook 500 has 1 single slot, and depends on the model, has 64MB or 128MB of RAM soldered onto the motherboard. Thus the max memory you can have (if using the 128MB version) is 128 + 512 = 640MB.

Let's see... The AGP card has 1 x DVI port and 1 x ADC port. The card also comes with one DVI-to-VGA connector. Both Sony monitors have VGA adaptors. So you would connect one of the Sony monitors to the DVI port using the DVI-to-VGA cord. So that leaves you with one VGA monitor and one ADC port...

The Mozilla project is actually in charge of the Java Plug-in development. If you are having problems using it, please submit it as a bug on Mozilla.org. They would highly appreciate it. Apple released their Java framework API relatively late to Mozilla, and that is partially the reason for...

That is terrific! :D

WINE is an implementation of Windows API over UNIX. Thus a program's Windows' API calls are mapped to UNIX calls instead.

Machine codes for RISC processors are "simpler". This allows the processor to process many, but simple codes. So the performance improvements is that the processors are generally more efficient - like a well run assembly line - do simple things at a time, but do MANY of them. CISC on the other...

You have been misinformed... You need a $39.00 ADC to DVI connector, then you need a $19.00 DVI to VGA adaptor. Both items can be purchased at the Apple Store online...

No, you can drive two desktops from one video card. So spanning should be no problem.

Don't define yourself, since life will often define it for you. Instead, do what you love, and see where life leads you. I, for example, got accepted to U.C. Berkeley in their Electrical Engineering and Computer Science program. But before even starting my freshman year, I decided I want to...

Even if Apple does use AMD chips, which I HIGHLY doubt they will, the hardware would still be created in house. In other words, despite using the AMD chip, the motherboard would still be designed and manufactured by Apple, and Apple would make sure that proprietary boot codes are used, ensuring...

What am I looking out for? I don't get it...

For simple sites, either options would be fine. So it really comes down to personal preferences, especially considering you don't plan to use Frontpage extensions. Apache is the most popular webserver for the Unix platform - it is the webserver bundled with Mac OS X and most Linux...

I know what you mean... I RARELY like Cronenberg films, but somehow eXistenZ jumped out at me. I saw it on cable one day, and it INSTANTLY drew me into it. I thought the story and the way the film was shot really drew in its audience. I found it suspenseful and thought provoking. Although the...

In terms of security, go with Apache. Microsoft just released ANOTHER security bulletin regarding its IIS (Internet Information Server). Go with MS if you wish to use FrontPage extensions. Apache is more stable and secure, it is also much more popular MS solutions. Apache has more than 54% of...

My friend bought her Mac using the Apple Loan program as a Univeristy student. She hated the decision because the interest was murder. In the end she would've been able to buy a MUCH higher end machine with all the additional money in interest. In general buying anything using loans is not a...

Will it would be about time for a G4 iBook... But I think it'll only be in the upper end of the line. I was hoping and waiting for a G4 iBook update a while back, I finally caved and gotten myself a DVI TiBook 667MHz. It's really quite an amazing machine. Remarkable powerful and portable...

I like the post 1.0 build of Mozilla, it's stable, has the W3C conformity of Mozilla 1.0, but also supports anti-aliased text. My only complaint is that it's slower than Mozilla 1.0. I do also use Chimera, cuz I like its interface, but it really is alpha software right now. I have IE...
