Three people who have found this thread on the web have contacted me directly asking for the Mac drivers. Apparently their suppliers are failing to provide them with full Mac support (even though the printer is advertised as being Mac compatible Link 1 Link 2). If you find yourself in this...

Hey, thanks for the reply actually. Several months have gone by without anyone helping out, so it's appreciated. We have upgraded our equipment to get rid of the Cisco DSL modem, added T1 service and some Netgear routers, and I have a better handle on things now, learning by trial and error...

Well, here's what I asked of APC: And here's what APC said: I checked out the link that pedz suggested (thanks!), and, following the advice to install APC PowerChute Personal Edition (1.3.3), it appears to have worked. The documentation from APC was adequate, but I will still need to...

ARP looks handy for some things, but in my case, I don't think it will do me any good as the APC unit is not equipped with an ethernet card. The only connection between my Xserve and the APC unit is the APC-provided serial cable. Am I missing something? :/

Thank you for the replies - I will try to post back with my results when I have time. I've never used "arp" before - what is it? Any pointers for a beginner? I am somewhat familiar with Telnetting through the Terminal app.

I shoulda bought a UPS unit with USB... BUT, what I do have is an Xserve G5 and an APC Smart-UPS. Both have serial ports, and I am using the APC provided serial cable (apparently it is different than a standard serial cable). I believe Mac OS X 10.3.3 and later (I'm running Server 10.3.9)...

Blah, I think Apple wanted to flip the bird to everyone who has been screaming for a two-button mouse forever. Technically, they still have never produced a two-button mouse. The Mighty Mouse is still one button, with right-click functionality that mostly works, and is sort of intuitive...

I've heard much the same, generally speaking. I have a pretty negative view towards the wireless world. I really wonder why the wireless is better in Europe vs. USA...

We are old AT&T Wireless customers who became Cingular customers (still on an AT&T Wireless plan right now). We have been planning on switching from Cingular for a long time now, and probably still will when our contract finally expires. I would like to try out this phone, but I'm still very...

Thanks for the tip. I did do a quick search for something on VersionTracker.com, but nothing turned up. I will keep that in mind for the next time this happens. While I agree with your sentiments for "Mail.app" in that it's perfectly clear and simple, it really only would work if Mail.app...

OK, this really pisses me off... Apple Mail is the default email program in Mac OS X (I'm running 10.4.2). But I want to use Entourage instead (mainly due to the stupid way Mail handles attachments). So if I want to change the default email application from Mail to Entourage, I have to...

Problem solved! Or at least identified. The WAN port on my BEFSR81 is malfunctioning somehow. Plugging a workstation into it produces blinking lights, which supposedly shows it is working, but I brought it home and tested it out on my cable connection at home, and no go there either. So I...

Said mouse might get a mention, but since when did Mac sites like this ever not focus on Apple products? That's the normal mode of operations around here, and I wouldn't expect it to be any different. I think the thing that is driving the most discussion on this thread is the fact that Apple...

About freaking time. I'd like to try it out.

I'm still digging myself. Here's a thread where somebody else apparently has the same issue: http://forums.techguy.org/showthread.php?t=379034

Furthermore, I have the suggested cable modem at home (BEFCMU10), and I'm beginning to think that Linksys rep is full of crap. It's only got one ethernet port. Also a coax cable connector and a power connector.

OK, I'm setting up a fractional 768 kbps T1 connection to a small LAN. I had a Linksys BEFSR81 "Cable / DSL Router with 8 port switch" v2 laying around at home, so I figure I'd just use that to hook up my LAN to the T1 device, the Adit 600. The Adit 600 has a single ethernet port coming out...

Did y'all catch the recent Joy of Tech comic about "Vista"? http://www.joyoftech.com/joyoftech/joyarchives/711.html Pretty funny, I thought.

You're right. The biased anti-republican left-wing media is much better. Especially when it comes to internet mapping conspiracies. :p p.s. Are you really an anarchist?
