PS problem on Lombard
Does anyone have an idea on why, in Photoshop 5.5's rubber stamp, I can't select the area to copy with Option/Enter on the Lombard?

Pismos booting firewire?
(sorry, the message that I'm replying to isn't quoted here because I accidentally deleted it) Would the machine run faster off of a 7200 rpm ATA-100 firewire drive (than when booted off of the internal 4200 RPM drive). I would think it would. Has anyone done this? Is there a significant difference? Justin Has anyone booted off of a firewire drive with a pismo in OS X?

Re: Airborne Express AppleCare shipping: no insurance allowed!
-- My mother, a cartographer and computer artist, has had many bad experiences with Airborne Express in the past. One of her clients had a big, multi-million dollar deal with another company, but they missed out on it because they had switched to Airborne Express to save money. It turns out Airborne sent the package to the office next door. Big mistake. I've used Airborne Express once for shipping something, and they weren't very good. There was no one home when they delivered it, but they didn't leave a note. Luckily I happened to check the tracking number that night and I called customer service, but if I hadn't, that cycle could have continued for days. I'm never using Airborne again and I don't recommend it to anyone. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Interesting news regarding OSX
I noticed that myself... That is cool. I have an old 3400c sitting at the house :) I just wonder how badly it will run..haha. I mean, this processor speed is 180MHz. I know they made faster ones, and even included the G3 in one of them, but unfortunately, I have the 180. I only paid $300 for it though, so it's not that bad. I was planning on keeping it an OS 9 machine. I guess I will be aquafying it this summer. Walt -- Here I am. Now what are your other two wishes?

This came in my weekly OWC newsletter: Ryan is still hard at work with XpostFacto. On April 16th, version 2.2b4 became available, little more than a week after the first 2.2b1 was released. Version 2.2bx of XpostFacto makes it possible for the first time ever to install Apple OS X 10.1.x onto the original PowerBook G3 (3500/Kanga), PowerBook 3400 Series, and the PowerBook Duo 2400. Additionally, the latest version supports OS X installation to a drive connected to a third party ATA interface and provides 'processor throttling' during startup that eliminates OS X compatibility issues experienced when booting off some third party SCSI cards in a machine with a G3 or G4 Upgrade.
