Re: Pismo doesn't see FireWire QPS Que!
That sounds good, the strange thing is that the drive does work, sometimes. For example it worked last night for just one CD, then when I rebooted a bit later on it wasn't there. Maybe a loose connection inside the FW ports on the Pismo? Anyone know how to check without breaking either the bank or the 'book? Thanks, Sam * Kevin Stevens wrote at 24/7/02 19:30...

I regret ever buying .mac
Talk about some really bad support. Now the moderators are deleting posts that are exposing their bad support in their forums..ha! Wow. Apple policy there is that your question gets answered in 1 business day. Then a moderator comes on and says it's 24 business hours. So I ask him if that means that I can assume it will be 3 days (assuming 8 hour work days) until I can receive an answer, or rather I should allow 3 days before complaining that I have not received an answer. That post got deleted. I can't believe the sub-quality support, and services there. People are complaining everywhere, people are getting banned from posting for 30 days, its like WW3 up in there! The funny thing is, the support is the whole reason I bought the account instead of waiting for my trial period to end. I wanted to go into tech support forums and find out some information. People are asking how they can get a refund. I am totally shocked that this is coming from Apple. I will probably cancel my account there myself, and if they don't then I'll just post my name and password everywhere I can think of, and never look back. I let my mind wander and it didn't come back. Here is a post from someone that puts it all in perspective: -- What kind of company can bill you $49 (or $100) and not have a customer care phone number or email. Where else do you get to spend $100 and not get 'ANY' service. This is a service industry and the first thing that matters in this kind of business it to provide 'excellent' customer care. I hav been totally unimpressed by the lack of moderator support and speed of response from billing. The fact that you have no way to deal with Apple directly about your purchase is disgraceful and insulting to say the least. It is totally unacceptable to take money from people and offer zero customer service. I will use my iDisk space and some of the other features for the year I have paid for. But based on current experience and the attitude of Apple I will not be renewing my account next year. .mac will be a big problem for Apple if they don't get it sorted out for users. You can't run a business like this and expect it to succeed. How would you feel if you could not contact you phone company if you had billing or technical problems, other posting a message and hoping for a reply. You would change companies for certain, well that's what a lot of .mac users will do. Apple need to understand the strong feeling most of the users on here seem to have about the support and service provided - WE ARE NOT HAPPY WITH IT. This is a 3rd rate service at the moment, and no amount of extra functions are going to make up for that. Continued success of a SERVICE, requires quality and customer care, both are not evident at .mac For those of you like me who are not happy with .mac I suggest to make sure people who are considering joining understand the limitiations and issues we have painfully discovered. They are :- 1. Inconsistent technical service, Web Mail down for hours, HomePage problems, poor iDisk speed. 2. Little or no support on the .mac boards, just standard company waffle, that skirts round the real issues. 3. No way of contacting Apple regarding the service. 4. No ability to officially complain. 5.

Re: UW students forced to purchase a PC
UW Stout requires every student not in the Arts to purchase an unknown brand and model (top of the line is all they would say) of PC laptop (as is Windows) and if you purchase your own, you will have two laptops.

At the school I go to (UW-Stevens Point) we don't have to get a computer unless we want one. And even so, while they recommend PC, using a Mac on a college campus isn't that bad. You get more hands-on support than PC users simply because there's less people having problems. As for UW-Stout and the laptop thing... Well...

Slightly OT -- Testimony for AppleCare
I have a positive testimony for AppleCare that I would like to share among the listas. My son's iPod needed service -- the audio port was physically damaged and not working properly. Monday, 7/22, I went to the area of Apple's website where one can put in an order for service. The next morning, 7/23, before 8:30 AM, an Airborne Express box had arrived at my door, with a return label for sending it back, and even tape to reseal the box. I properly placed the iPod in the box, sealed it, and called Airborne. They picked up the box at my door by 6PM. Wednesday, 7/24: the box was due to arrive at Apple. This morning, Thursday, 7/25, at 9:00 AM, doorbell rings. It's Airborne Express! I sign for the package, open the box. Is there a repaired iPod in there? NO. Did they deem the problem not covered by warranty and return it unfixed? NO. What was in the box was a BRAND-NEW, PRISTINE, NEVER-USED IPOD!!! Matter completely taken care of within a 61-hour period!

Airport Help
Hello, I recently purchased a store model ibook/500 and am attempting to install airport... The airport software kept submitting a network listing of Dot-F for which I have no password and it would not allow me to add another network. I did a software restore wiping my hard drive and after reinstalling the software...the Dot-F network is still there. As my Airport PCMCIA card is used, I thought perhaps it is retaining some residual software on the card. It is probably my ignorance both with airport and Mac since I have recently converted to the Mac format. So I humbly ask your help. Richard -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Do you mean Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Charmed, both are WB (Warners Bros. TV)? I can recall one of the good witches on Charmed using what appears to be a Lombard or Pismo.

As I stated before, you can show up with a Mac and probably be just fine, but the PC is part of the tuition fee and you get one, like it or not. Tom Yes, that's right! What happens if you show up with the Mac? I can't imagine you'd be thrown out of school. What could they do? -Laurent. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: UW students forced to purchase a PC
Sorry, they want it back after two years! Wow! that's exorbitant! $4,000 for a _rental_. I'd say that withdrawal is something to consider. This is not about computers. It's about draconian educational and business practices. What if your employer said that not only must you have a car, but that it must be a Ford (or whatever). Even Ford or GM don't do that, I think. This is a university? I'd further suggest they have their charter revoked for this kind of thinking. Next thing you know, they're going to ban college students from eating french fries... oops! they're already trying that. 8-( Don't confuse fame with success.

Re: airport question
Actually, not true. They have a version out for Windows. You can use airport with a PC even. The administrator app you use to set it up only runs on Mac OSes as listed above. -- Ryan Coleman Coleman Web / Internet Services http://coleman-web.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] (612) 378-7901 Get your email address through lemlists.com for only $5/year. http://lemlists.com/email/ -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: iBook / Kensington Saddlebag
I used to use a SaddleBag with my Blueberry rev.a iBook. And I can tell you that it fits and much more. I was very happy with it on my trips across the Pacific as well as across the continent (SFO to JFK). I have replaced the Blueberry with a 14 600 iBook and got a Timbuk2 messenger bag which Im happy with as well.

(I have a graphite iBook, and it looks from the official specs as if it could be a tight fit.) Any other comments on the Saddlebag? Further, any recommendations for other (graphite-accommodating) carrying cases that can serve as both backpack and briefcase? Thanks. CM -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
