I don't agree, Jaguar is a full feature upgrade and I would argue that it is as drastic a change as from 8.6 was to 9 if not more so. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Energy saver problems under Jag?
I'm having similar problems with my Pismo Powerbook (400 MHZ). The symptoms seem similar to yours, but also if I close the lid to force it sleep, while the light pulses, the hard drive aparently does not go to sleep; it will make noises like it's accessing data but I have no idea what. Has Apple had anything to say about this? Joe Ellis - Original Message - From: Jim Eddy [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: G-Books [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, September 01, 2002 11:29 AM Subject: Energy saver problems under Jag? Has anyone else noticed their powerbook won't sleep under the energy saver pref? My bronze will sleep under the sleep command, and wakes up without problem (faster than 10.1.5), but won't sleep if unused for any length of time set. The screen will blacken, but the sleep light doesn't pulse, and a touch of the trackpad (which won't wake a book from sleep) brings the screen back. A friend's Bronze has the same problem. It even showed up in the new TiBook in the Short Hills, NJ, Apple store. So far I haven't heard anyone else with this problem.

Re: .Mac
I had a iTools but opted not to pay for .Mac. The reason: I used my .mac address as a vanity address. Thinking it was going to be permanent, I told everyone to send mail to me at my mac.com address, which I simply had forwarded to my email address that I got through my ISP. My problem with the way Apple has handled this transition is not that they are charging for .Mac (more power to 'em!), but that they didn't recognize that some of us loyal Mac users (I wrote my Master's thesis on an original Mac, when it was bleeding edge) didn't use any of the iTools services other than the email address. Not even any email storage space. Apple should give away email addresses without any storage space--it's basically free advertising for them (I've had many people ask me about it--do you work for Apple now?--that kind of thing). It would be a win-win situation--they get advertising, I get a permanent email address that I can just keep forwarding to my ISP du jour. Instead they ticked me off because I had to (yet again) change my email address. - Mark - Date: Mon, 23 Sep 2002 08:10:32 -0600 Subject: Re: .Mac From: Kenneth Stevens [EMAIL PROTECTED] In-Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-Id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Monday, September 23, 2002, at 04:34 AM, Demetrius wrote: Hello, Just wanted to get some feedback concerning .Mac.

(No, I have cable). 4) IE loads in 2 minutes, when its nice. 5) Eudora runs fast. It's the only thing that runs right. Which is helpful since I need my email. On a lighter note: 9.2.2 loads in 14.3 seconds. IE loads in 2, Office 2001 applications load in under 1. The only applications that load slowly are java-based clients. I want a tech to tell me what is wrong with my book. Not a generic response but an actual diagnosis. I will run applications on my end to test if need be.

OT-new Powerbook recommendation
My sister is thinking about buying a new Powerbook and has her eyes on a Powerbook G4. She's recently retired and is looking at a system for working on photos she accumulated over her lifetime. So, I need recomendations on the following: Powerbook G4-what model and configuration printer-obviously needs to print good photos with long lasting inks scanner (also needs slides capability) digital still camera software for working on photos. Any recomendations other than photoshop which would serve for basic touchups and is reasonably easy to use. Anybody seen any bundles with most of this stuff?

I removed the extra 256 and tried that the first time, no help. Apple Store even ran AHT and got no errors when I was last in the store in late July. I am scheduled to get a new lobo but I cannot afford to lose the computer for any period of time. If I only had my certification for these computers I would have apple send me the new lobo and I would do the install myself. I had to replace the board in a tiBook 500. You don't want to have to do that in your 667. It took me a full day. I can assure you Ryan. Yours is an isolated case. I have 2 667's and they are both running perfectly. -- == Kyle H.

Re: Sleepless hard drive
Adding fuel to the fire After upgrading to 10.2 I noticed that occasionally my WallStreet would WAKE UP in my bag. I think it's related to jostling but I'm not sure. In any event it is certainly fun to reach in there after a few hours of (not) sleeping and feel the heat.

Outdoor screen
I am dismayed with the uselessness of my TiBook in bright outdoor light. Probably this is a general laptop problem. Is there an outboard outdoor monitor screen that uses the kind of technology for overhead projectors or something like that?

Re: Outdoor screen
There are screens that you can mount to your laptop--actually hoods--that enable you to see clearly. Seems like a pain to me. I've tried only once (with a clamshell iBook) to use it in sunlight. Didn't work very well. http://www.pbzone.com/hoodmanreview.shtml I was looking for info today on backlights (my son's iBook light died) and found all kinds of interesting threads on designing something to use ambient light through the back of a clear computer lid.

Re: .Mac
I am also an Apple shareholder. I'm pretty cheap too. I have to be after the drubbing I took on the stock over the last couple of years. But I paid full price to Apple for Jaguar because it offered massive improvement for the money. No regrets there. But of iTools, I also only ever used the email, which was a nice luxury and pretty cool. Speaking of cheap, I think the best cheap way to get a full featured G4 Pbook is to plop an upgrade card into a Pismo. I'm thinking of finding a 400 mhz Pismo and trading in the old Wallstreet 300. p.s. I have a copy of Office 98 gold for sale. Has the cdkey and is original. Email me off-list if interested. I am trying to build up my G4 piggybank. 8^) Ross Cottrell -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Jag Issues (Ti667)
This is why Apple tells people to backup before sending it in. And the point Kyle is well taken. No they will not. Kiss it goodbye. Sorry. You may not even get the same laptop back.

OT-ish: iSync?
Has anyone heard anything about a release date for iSync? The Apple web site says it will be released in September, and the month is almost over. Is it coming? The big question, too, is if iSync will support USB connections, or if it is Bluetooth-only. Any ideas?
