Is CCC still available for OS 9.x.x?

Try not to laugh.

It seems that bombich.com (creators of Carbon Copy Cloner) might have 
gone to the great ISP in the sky. Have not been able to connect for 
some days now. Is CCC available elsewhere?

Also FYI, Panther has restored my Rev A iMac on which OS X was killed 
by 10.2.8. update. Panther seems very good so far. Soon to put on Pismo.

But still new windows in Mail and Safari open with scroll bar off right 
of screen & must be repositioned. Arrrgh!  Anyone know a cure?

TIA,
Stuart.

Re: Pismo HD question

[Gary Adams]

I always go to Transinternational's site. Having done an upgrade twice 
(to 30gb and just today to 60gb 7200 rpm). Only real concern is to take 
care when removing and reinstalling the daughtercard. Those pins are 
really small and you can (or at least I did) bend a couple.

DPrice,

On October 1st I purchased the 40GB Travelstar for my Pismo 400 MHz. I 
got it from OWC and also got a case to use my old 10GB as an external 
USB drive (although now I wish I had paid the extra for the firewire).

I am very happy with it. Very quiet (my old one was starting to really 
annoy me with the noise), and easy to install. It was my first time 
opening up a powerbook for an upgrade. I would not hesitate to do any 
more installations or upgrades myself.

You can get instructions with pictures from several sources. I printed 
out 2 different sets of instructions and thought it was pretty 
straight forward.

Feel free to email me off list with any questions and there are a lot 
more experienced and very helpful listers here if you run into a 
problem.

Re: PC Wireless Card

[Hal]

Lucent Orinoco WaveLAN Silver card. There are freeware drivers for OSX 
and you can use the Apple Airport drivers under OS9. The cards are 
cheap on eBay.

FWIW, that site is now:

http://www.ZipZoomFly.com/

While the Travelstar is a great drive (they show it out of stock tonight 
on that site), is the size large enough for your needs? If you will be 
ripping/downloading MP3s in iTunes, you may find the drive filling up 
rather quickly. My original 10GB on my Pismo did, and I am now looking at 
a 60GB Toshiba (16MB buffer, as opposed to the smaller buffer - 2MB? - on 
the comparable Hitachi/IBM one).

Consider your space reqeuirements for now and a little into the future. I 
find that in the past I have underestimated how much drive space I 
needed, and in MacOS 9.x, I turned off virtual memory. When I go to MacOS 
X, I will need extra space for VM, since X doesn't allow you to turn 
Virtual Memory off and uses it continually (I understand).

YMMV, HTH,

Jim Rohde

Re: PC Wireless Card

[Shawn Harley]

Connie,

Download Airport Extreme 3.1.1(?), get a Linksys 54G card (WPC54G) and 
you're all set. Just remember to have the card installed when you start 
the Wallstreet, if not, Airport Extreme will not recognize it. Once 
started with card installed, you can eject and re-insert the card 
without any problems. Just need to start the Wallstreet with the card 
inserted.

I'm assuming one can leave a powerbook plugged in even after it comes 
up to full charge? Noticed that with it plugged in it seems to stay 
pretty warm on the bottom... any warnings or does everyone just leave

Re: Virtual PC6/Pismo 400/OS9

[Krevnik]

I just tried Win98 on my Lombard under 9 and X Under 9 I can almost 
play Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun. The sound is choppy, and the 
game runs slow, but it is just under playable. This game had a minimum 
of a P166, and I have a G3/333... so if you don't need CPU-intensive 
tasks done, it should be just fine.

Re: Pismo HD question

[Krevnik]

Oooo, Hitachi!

Seriously, I have a 4200 RPM 40GB Hitachi that I got for 100$. This 
sucker is whisper quiet... My Lombard with the CD-ROM drive removed 
makes NO noise above the background noise, even when grinding the HD 
like crazy. So yes, that is the good drive to get.

Bare drives are not a problem, just follow the instructions for 
replacing your Pismo HD available on xlr8yourmac.com and things will go 
smoothly. (Took me about 10 minutes to replace) Be careful though, the 
instructions tell you to leave the cable plugged into the logic board 
during the replacement, and I unseated my cable during installation, 
leading to a HD failure a week afterwards, wiping all my data. I would 
add an instruction at the end saying 'Make sure both sides of the HD 
cable are SEATED FIRMLY BEFORE CLOSING THE MACHINE. Save yourself some 
headaches there.

OSX Mail/Proxy Server setup

[Charles]

I'm having difficulty setting up the OS X Mail app to work with the 
proxy server in my office.  When using OS 9 and Outlook Express, I 
would select the "tunnel" option with port number 80 (HTTP proxy).  
This worked fine for years, but I can't figure out how to do it in the 
Mail app of OS X.

Thanks,

Charles

Re: Pismo HD question

[Tony Coult]

I have the identical drive except that it is 40g. When my old one 
started to rattle and hum, I replaced it myself with a new one. I 
followed the instructions-with-pix on http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/ and 
its worked a treat since. Quiet and reliable, bar one terrible day 
after I'd partitioned the disc and it suddenly lost my second - 
critical - partition. The guy who rescued my data said don't partition, 
and don't as I did run Norton to try and rescue things. So I didn't. I 
now have Panther on it and it's a pleasure. Enjoy! TONY
