Old Mac Geezer

Remember you're talking about the low end of the Mac graphics lineup. Most of the better games require a lot of power that low end video solutions don't have. I bought a G4 tower that came with a Rage 128 Pro 16mb graphics card that couldn't play games for crap. That was the low end back when this machine was new. I have a Radeon 9700 in there now and games run a lot better. Unfortunately, the mini can't be upgraded, so you're stuck with what you have. Be sure you read the system requirements on any game before you buy it in the future as it may not run adequately, if at all, on your machine. If gaming is your goal, you need a machine with a better graphics card in the future. My brother has a 24" iMac with the 7300GT graphics card and that's not even high end for games and graphics work although it does work well enough.

AFAIK you can't engrave refurbs though so OP should think that through.
You can't so this is a moot point for the OP.

The PowerBooks span between their own inbuilt screen and a second (external) screen.
I can't imagine it'd be all that possible/easy to span between two external screens with a PowerBook though. :)

the new spymac is great, especially the spydisk. 100 MB of online disk space that mounts on the OS X desktop.

Off of the spotlight tutorial (http://www.amazingsyco.com/archives/000071.html), I made this. Thanks to iLikeMyiMac #8 (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=84534) for the idea.
Also, I got the iMac from the Apple website.
Hope you like it!

that one on ebay is still cheap , i payed for my one a couple month ago a hell of a lot more , in fact i payed as much as you pay for a 27"imac ,but i dont regret it a bit ,to me its worth 3 times more then a top iMac 27"
Ok mine was only ever used for just a couple month if at all before it went into its box again because it was replaced by a iMac g3 by the original owner , remember that was 1998 and has not a single visible sign of any use ,and ALL accessoires that came in the original box when shipped from apple cant even make out that the keyboard with trackpad was ever in use ,so is in brandnew condition , and thats how i want to keep the TAM ,at the moment its in its original box again (upgraded to a sonnet g3 500mhz card...hard to source) until i find a way to store it visible but without it getting signs of wear and protected from sunlight as they tend to get grey if exposed to sunlight especially i want to care for the leather palmrests as leather wears if it gets in contact with hands

Good work!
Here's some all important functions i've come accross in my own RSS creation:
// convert timestamp to ISO8601 formatted date
function iso8601_date($time){
$tzd = date('O',$time);
$tzd = substr(chunk_split($tzd, 3, ':'),0,6);
$date = date('Y-m-d\TH:i:s', $time) . $tzd;
return $date;
}
// convert special chars to UTF-8 valid entities
function strictify ( $string ) {
$fixed = htmlspecialchars( $string, ENT_QUOTES );
$trans_array = array();
for ($i=127; $i<255; $i++) {
$trans_array[chr($i)] = "&#" . $i . ";";
}
$really_fixed = strtr($fixed, $trans_array);
return $really_fixed;
}

Hi, I have my Apple mouse that came with my G5 iMac (bought in Aug/Sept. 05') and have no need for it. I used it about a week until my wireless mouse arrived and now I wish to sell it. It's in great shape and very white ;)
$20 shipped to the Continental US or Local pickups welcome.
I take PayPal and have feedback on MR Marketplace with others (just look my name up if you wish), also feedback on heatware.com under artfuldodger.
Send me a pm, post here or email...I prefer pm over email.
All I ask is please leave feedback as it helps each of us out :)
is this the mighty mouse? interested, but if it's just the plain apple mouse that comes with all systems before the mighty mouse came out, $20 is lame price IMO. You can get them for pennies on ebay

"I want to set up all this stuff on it"
Let me guess, pirating?
You don't need SSH to set up things.
How would you pirate with SSH? I use it for installing Winterboard themes. And by SSH I mean iPhoneBrowser. SSH needs wifi and drains battery life, while iPhoneBrowser just requires a USB cord. Plus SSH makes your iPod vulnerable to hacking (unless you change the default password from alpine, which many people don't do).
Just go here: http://code.google.com/p/iphonebrowser/downloads/detail?name=SetupiPhoneBrowser.1.93.exe&can=2&q= and download it. If you have Windows 7, you have to run it in compatibility mode for Vista.
PS: 4.0 on iPod touch 2G is terribly slow. You should update to 4.2 and jailbreak with redsn0w (untethered for MB models), and it will be a bit faster.

Moving across iTunes was far harder. Reformatting one 1TB Hard Drive to be used on the Mac then copying across 200GB of data from an NTFS drive to the new one.

EDIT: Sold, thank you all for your interest.
Topic should make it obvious...
For sale:
-Dock (gently used)
-Dock Cable (gently used)
-Charger (gently used)
-Headphones (brand new)
Would prefer to sell these all to the same person, but if there's just one or two things you're interested in give it a shot.

Cool. With Firefox having a tendency to go braindead in its 1.0 release, it's nice to have a stable Gecko browser for testing things.

I read something about how it's impossible to upload to your computer unless you have a 3.0GHZ processor or better?
Most consumer cameras use AVCHD to encode their footage, which is a highly compressive codec, thus the CPU needs more power to decode the video.
But if you want to edit the footage, you should transcode the video to an editing format anyway, iMovie and FCE/P will do that for you. After that process, the CPU is hardly used during playback.
Other than that, I don't have any recommendation for a consumer camcorder.

Updates replace changed files. Softare Update merely automates what you would do when you manually download updates. IMHO, the reports that you heard about updates originate between the keyboard and chair.Actually, the issues aren;t of the PEBKAC variety. Ever since Apple started with patch updates through Software Update I've had issues occur that were fixed by applying the full point update (not the combo update). Pretty much every issue that has been fixed by installing the combo update (that I know of) has been where the system in question had one ofr more point patch updates installed by software update instead of the full point update.
Ever since that became a common occurance, I only install the full point updates and haven't had any of the funky issues that people seem to have that are apparently caused by the smaller patch updates.
I think Apple could save some money by not bothering with the patch updates so they have less software to test and have less customer issues. In theory having the three types of updates (patch, point and combo) gives them too many combinations to test. Since apparently depending on which updates were patch and which were point changes the outcome of how the system works.
