Re: iBook screen flicker
Jeff- This seems consistent with a hardware failure in your something something (I can't remember what it's called, but it provides power to the screen.) The same thing happened to my ThinkPad from work with turning down the screen brightness being the same workaround. I would get it repaired before it goes out of warranty. My 2001 iBook screen has started to flicker just a bit when it comes out of sleep. If I lower the brightness 1 level it stops, but I don't like to do that. It's under warranty for a few more months. Is this something I should get fixed now? It's almost imperceptible, but it worries me that it might get worse, that it's a bad omen.

Re: OT: 6 Pin to 6 Pin Firewire Cable (Firewire Target Disk Mode)
If its a case of I need to walk into a store and walk out with a cable your only choices most likely are the chains, CompUSA, BestBuy, Circuit City, possibly Staples, Office Max, etc. If you mean I want to order one today so it'll be here in a few days try the typical online discount places like newegg.com, buy.com, etc. Be warned, if you're talking a brick and mortar store, you'll be paying 40+ for a Belkin brand cable.

That is grease from your fingers that the keys are leaving on your screen when you close your book. You can use a lightly damp clean soft cotton cloth and with a few minutes of gentle work they will come off. So aside from religiously washing your hands every time you touch your Mac there's not a lot that can be done. I take a piece of soft thin cloth and cover my keyboard before I close my TiBooks. Works great, but you have to remember which side is up and which is down or it will do little good. It actually happens mostly not just when the screen is closed, but when there's pressure on the unit. If I carry my powerbook around by its lonesome, I get no marks but if I put it in my bag, where it bangs against me, and books inside put pressure on it, I do get marks. There's actually a company that makes a nice leather cover for the keyboard, but their name eludes me at the moment I've been meaning to buy one for a while. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
