    Help me get a mac book!

    At least pay for half of the Mac... I paid for half of my Powerbook, when I was younger, and I think that my parents were too generous there (and they're well off). Now I'm buying a Macbook with my own money. I know I'm older, but still, you shouldn't be expecting your parents to buy you...

    iWeb... publishing progress?

    Hi, I am using iWeb 1.1.1 on Mac OS X 10.4.6 After it tells me that the publishing will continue in the background, a little circle next to the Site name starts to show progress, like a pie chart, each segment becomes white. Then it completes, and nothing happens. It just remains like that...

    The MacBook is out

    Nice! So what are you doing with your old Powerbook? Are you happy with the keyboard on the Macbook? You've convinced me to buy the base model (I was thinking about the Superdrive... but meh...)

    FS: 12 inch Powerbook 1.33Ghz/512mb RAM/60GB HD/ UK

    Hi, I have a Powerbook here that I'd like to sell. I brought it for £1219. It has suffered from the "Ink blot syndrome", in which there are black marks on the bottom left and right of the Powerbook when opened (thus to the left and right of the trackpad), it is missing the F10 key (although it...

    The MacBook is out

    I expect to buy one sometime soon. I'm going to buy the basic 2.0Ghz white MiBook (see what I did there?) and order a 1GB RAM stick from Crucial, sell one of the 256s and put the 1GB in its place. I'm also going to sell the 60GB HD and buy a 100GB/120GB. Along with a student discount I should...

    What hard 7200rpm hard disks would work in a Macbook?

    I know little about this. I've learned that the Macbook's HD is very easy to remove and on Ars Technica the reviewer managed to replace the HD with a 120GB 7200RPM hard disk. What HD would one use? They come in all sorts of sizes. I'm trying to contact the reviewer, but thanks anyway.

    quicktime

    It might not have the codecs required for the video file. When the video file is made the author may use codecs for various reasons such as reducing file size without making the video quality poor. Of course whoever views the video will need the codec. Try VLC player. It seems to have a lot of...

    What size Intel notebooks do you think Apple will sell?

    We already have a 15 and 17. Do you think we'll get a 12 inch Macbook Pro? And what about the iMacbooks? The iiBooks, I mean, the iBook replacements :p, do you think they will be offered in the 12 and 14 sizes like the iBooks? I'm still thinking about what to get. I might get a 15 inch...

    The new MacBook (No "Pro")

    I hope it doesn't look like the Macbook. I might buy the Macbook but I'm presuming it's the same material as the Powerbook which I wasn't so fond of. Sweet thing is I can pay for this all by myself with the money I get from my army basic training. I don't think I'd need the power of the Macbook...

    I am using 10.4.6 Firefox simply won't load a page, it just times out. I'm using Camino but I want to try out Firefox. Thanks.

    Video version of Audio Hijack?

    I've been trying to find some videos of Elliott Smith performing live but I can't find any. If anyone knows of any for sale in the UK that would be great information to pass on. But otherwise is there such a tool that can copy the video from a source? The video is played through a flash...

    Is it possible to set download programs to download onto an external HD?

    Basically I want it so that when I plug the HD, and launch a download program, it downloads straight to the external HD. Can this be done? 10.4.6.

    BootCamp run Windows on Mac

    Of course you'll have to buy a separate copy of Windows, but in my opinion that's better than just having those recovery disks provided with most PCs. I'd rather just have a clean disk with the entire O.S in its normal form.

    1 gig nano enough?

    Yeah, on the side of the shuffle. Apple will take broken engraved iPods. However they cannot promise the consumer that they will received an engraved replacement. And the service usually takes longer than a non-engraved iPod.

    Mac OS X 10.4.6 released...

    See if you can get the W800i. That is a brilliant phone. I used to have it but mine broke (dropped) so I brought a Nokia 6280. I prefer the Nokia but it depends on what your needs are. The W800 has the best MP3 Player I've seen on a phone so far (other than the W600, that is a bit better) as...

    Mighty Mouse?

    I too use a powerbook. I brought the Apple keyboard and Mighty Mouse when the Mighty Mouse came out. In the Apple Keyboard box there was an extension cable. Sadly you can't use it for the mighty mouse (it has some groove in it to prevent doing so) but it's still handy.
