Emate

2002-12-30 Thread Tony Simons
Hi
Not directly connected but I am trying to update my emate with the 
hpirda printer update, I have downloaded the file from apple site, its 
a smi file. On running it it unpacks then declares I have the wrong 
format drive. This is on my wallstreet II running Jaguar with an os9 
and an osx partition.

I don't have a floppy for the machine has anyone got the file I need 
please which will be hpirda.pkg.

Missing G-Books digest

2002-12-30 Thread Dan Knight
The lemlists.com mail server was down for a while last week, so G-Books 
Digest #1014 never reached me. If someone on the list could redirect or 
forward a copy to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED], I'd be most grateful.

Thanks!

New Pismo Owner - G4, Upgrade Questions

2002-12-30 Thread Stephen Bright
Hello, I am a new Pismo 400MHz/256/10 GB/DVD owner ($700) and this is my
first post to this list. I am migrating to the Pismo from a Umax s900 to do
fanless (hopefully) audio reccording via Firewire (MOTU 828) interface. And
I am interested in getting some feedback about Pismo upgrades.

1) G4 upgrade. I was planning on going Powerlogix, mainly because it is only
$279 for Austin TX, residents. Any reason to prefer Newer?

2) Ram upgrade. I was planning on getting 1 new 512 MB stick from OWC. Any
reasons to consider the much more expensive low power RAM?

3) CD upgrade. Looking at the IBM 40 GB Travelstar 5400/8 MB cache. Any
thoughts on what may be a better choice?

Thanks in andvance for any help from more experienced users.

Best,
Stephen

Re: New Pismo Owner - G4, Upgrade Questions

2002-12-30 Thread Hal
I had a similarly configured Pismo and did all 3 upgrades. Here's my 
thoughts on each:

I did the Powerlogix upgrade. When I first got it back, it crashed a 
lot, so (after a week of testing it) I sent it back to Powerlogix. It 
turned out to be a bad G4 chip. Since getting it back, it's been 
running great, and noticeably faster under OSX.

 2) Ram upgrade. I was planning on getting 1 new 512 MB stick from OWC. 
 Any
 reasons to consider the much more expensive low power RAM?
I got the 512 chip from OWC (not the low power one) and it's been fine. 
I have 1GB in the Pismo now.

 3) CD upgrade. Looking at the IBM 40 GB Travelstar 5400/8 MB cache. Any
 thoughts on what may be a better choice?
I got this drive (for $155 from googlegear) and love it. It's 
noticeably faster than the 6GB OEM drive it replaced.

Good luck with the upgrades!

-Hal

what is googlegear? i just got a bismo 500 w/12 gb hd. i received today
a 512 chip from owc so i will be up to 640, but still need to deal with
the hd. i had ordered the 4200 40gb travelstar from dell- don't ask,
they had an insane price - but instead received a module fro one of
ther computers. it has been almost a week trying to get somebody to
correct this with no luck so i am thinking on contacting visa for  a
credit and returning it to them.
