Several days before Apple's announced iLife and iWork release, the applications are available for purchase at a cost of $39 each at University Bookstores.

sounds like your PC won't boot.
Yes, you are probobly right. The fan spins at boot up. than, it starts to load Windows. However, I don't think it is booting at all. Besides, I have no video signal, so even if it was, i have no way to do anything.
"Putting the harddrive in the iMac?" Sounds a bit risky to me. I dont know. this is an iMac G3, 233 MHz. The original "Bondi Blue." I might be willing to give it a shot, but how would it affect the iMac's HD? Also, Where can you buy one of these "External encloseres?"

I'll leave the obvious comment until the end, but signs seem to point to a September release - around WWDC would be nice. Announcement, with shipping a month later maybe.

I think that we'll see the imac get an update before any of the other models.
It would probably mean Apple would have a poor 4th quarter if they do not introduce some sort of upgrade.

Hey everyone, just thought I would share a website that I originally happened upon, when someone discussed Cocktail. Rixstep did a review of the program and gave it a real beatdown for what it properly deserved, along with other programs such as MacJanitor.
www.rixstep.com
However, I think within the last few months or so, Rixstep has gone from a website that reccomends alternative operating systems and cheerleading Mac OS X, Rixstep has totally gone in the opposite direction and goes out of it's way to completely beat the hell out of Apple in it's articles. I mean, they give Apple no mercy whatsoever.
Rightfully, they gave Steve Ballmer a hell of a beatdown in a faux-interview about Windows Vista's upcoming release, delays in the release, and the rush to gold while hacking and slashing features.
I readily agree with them on many points but it just seems that within the last few articles they're not even bothering to give a viable alternative. They're just beating the **** out of anyone who makes an operating system or a computer product (they absolutely love beating Apple over the head with their Intel Switch, and it's like they find delight in everything that goes wrong)
I think at one article they basically said the only alternative today is Ubuntu Linux. Now, don't get me wrong. I think Linux is a great operating system, and Ubuntu is what i've used to learn my way around Linux. It's a very nice system but it still is not ready for primetime just yet. I have yet to have a seamless upgrade from a Breezy Badger to Dapper Drake distro, which makes or breaks a OS in a office environment.
I'm just really upset that a website that I read seemed to have some very good pieces of writing, and some very good points of view, suddenly just starts beating Apple over the head for everything they do, without really giving me a viable alternative to consider. It's like Apple was their girlfriend that decided to break up with them, and now they're mad as a bull and trying to make life miserable for them.
Thoughts?

guys..............
they didn't aknowledge it because it was a sat. tommorow, mark my words, they will have a new website, products, and recognition. after thier last event let us down so much, maybe they decided to skip out on the event, or maybe it will just be a live web stream. sat is not a work day, ppl! do not loose faith!
I was thinking the same thing virus1. I guess that it was too much to expect any announcements from Apple on Saturday. :(

i agree with you here, but for me, 667 to 1+ghz would be quite a jump. nearly 100% speed increase. and yes, speed is not such an issue when opening a program, but doing high ends graphics work requires power.
the ti book is not for consumers who only surf and email. it is for pros who make a living with their ti book, their tool.

First of all, I'm just going to assume that you're using Mac OS X only, and if you're not, just ignore my post :) .
The first step in repartitioning your drive is backing up all your data that you want, but seeing that you bought a new Mac, that might be nothing...
Second, take your Mac OS X install disk and put it in the computer and boot it up holding down the 'C' key. That will boot your computer from the CD.
As soon as you have control over the computer after bootup, go to the Installer menu (I'm not sure that's the one... it's whatever's between the Apple and Edit, if there's even an edit menu there...) and select "Disk Utility"
When that loads, select the "Partition" tag and then select your drive. It should be pretty apparant how to setup the partitions you want from there. My suggestion is to reserve about 4-5 gigs of the drive for your Mac OS X and some apps, and then you could partition the rest anyway you want. Either by subject, client, product, whatever... I'm not into graphic design so I don't really know...
Anwyays, after you've set that up, click Partition and it'll erase everything and repartition it for you.
Oh, and make sure that your OSX disk is an install disk not an upgrade disk! You won't be able to reinstall OSX after you partition if that's so...
Anyways, hope that helps. I'm sure others have some things to add or change, so listen to them :)

Doable?
If you had a professional company do it. But as yg17 said, it wouldn't be cheap.
If you do this though, you must have a deafeningly loud siren; no security system is complete without one. :D

No real pattern, but since inception of the PowerBook G3 (hacked hybrid of the PowerBook 3400) Apple has updated their hardware an average of every 7.5 months.
Given that we should expect to see an update around November 15th. Though I'm not holding my breath and expect to have to wait until MacWorld Expo San Fran. 2003. *sigh*

That and QuickSilver insists on using Safari to open internet pages, and I haven't figured out how to tell it FF is the new hotness.
You probablly need to set FF as your default browser.
Do this in the Safari Prefs under the general tab.

How about this...
A Car iPod that fits into your car just like an aftermarket CD player that has:
AM/FM Tuner
Airport Capability
Rendevus Technology
CD Player?
Hard Drive
So when you pull into your garage your "iStereo" automaticly sences your Mac and connects and downloads new mp3's from iTunes. SmartLists could also be added. ex. you want all jazz music, punch a few buttons on your "iStereo" and when it syncs up it erases all old music and downloads all jazz files.

Obviously, Apple will freak (what else is new...), but all this does is provide a shortcut around the burn-to-CD-and-rerip shortcut that's built into iTunes.
Wouldn't this shortcut result in a loss in sound quality?

Wow, it really sounds like this is likely to use stolen code. Based on PearPC with lots of evidence--even while the author denies that!
I certainly wouldn't be giving them money until that is answered!
And is this actually much better than the open source PearPC anyway?
I downloaded trial version. Looks like it is just a poor wrapper around PearPC.
It comes with compressed HD images from 3GB to 12GB and simple GUI to create config files.
Could not load Mandrake PPC version. And it's sloooow, same as PearPC.
If they mentioned that it's PearPC beneath and respected GPL, I would not have issue with someone selling GUI wrapper around GPL-ed product. But problem is this guy is claiming it's all his code so we are talking about theft here. PearPC has to investigate and take actions somehow.
On similar note, I noticed that there are many of this emulators popping up recently that "forget" to mention open source projects they "borrow" code from.
If you are interested, more discussion on CherryOS is going on osnews and slashdot.

Godfather: Blackhand Edition (the wii version) is really neat... lots of stuff to do, lots of destruction and mayhem... and the wiimote integration is were the game really shines... i never played the original version, but as i understand it, there hass been a good amount added compared to the oringinal xbox version... not to mention over 25 wiimote gestures for executing and intimidating people...
Lots of additional levels in the Wii version that weren't in the original, as well. Definitely buying this next week.

What I can't understand is why you would actually encode something into RealMedia format.
Unfortunately, QuickTime player is only available for two platforms, and on the platform with wider distribution the player simply isn't very good.
Trash Real all you like, but their player is available on many more platforms, and it can offer passable video with dialup-friendly file sizes. Quicktime handily bests Real when more bandwidth is available, but broadband availability is still far from universal :(
