Re: Limewire
Although the bulk of the money earned by the artists comes from the concerts and other merchandizing schemes and not from sales of CDs. The money from the CD sales mostly goes to the music companies.

Yes. You are right. Sharing music has a potential, although slim, to hurt independent do-it-yourself artists.

That's what these technologies, starting with napster, were intended for in the first place, that's what they've largely been used for, and that's what they continue to be used for. Yes they have legitimate uses, and mere possession of the software should not be viewed with suspicion, however, the preponderance of evidence shows that what people are sharing is largely music files, films and warez.

Re: Limewire (OT)
Tim Collier said: Interesting answer. I was thinking as I read it.hmmm, no music industry, then nobody to pay artists, no artists being paid, no music! What a sad, sad world that would be. So you have a hard time getting it or what? My point was that the record companies of *now*, ie as they are structured now, will wither, because there will be new alternatives for distributing online, that will in many cases give an opportunity for new types of business models, that to a large extent will prevent the big 6 or whatever corporations that own all the other record companies in the world (!) from controlling the action. This is good. The big evil mogule record company of the 20th Century is a dodo. Good riddance when they are replaced (which will be a long process of course). The main reason music industry is doing so bad is inflated record prices, that they haven't been following with their times. I'm quite sure what people want to pay for is artists not record companies as they are now. It's very possible to create new business models online. It's actually hard work getting music for free (as if time was free) on the sharing networks and in many cases well worth to spend about $1 or so per track. Which is why there is a big incentive to actually purchase music. But it has to be done right. So far the only well done alternatives I know of is iTunes Music Store and Beatport http://www.beatport.com and swedish Dotshop http://www.dotshop.se, though the latter doesn't sell downloadable tracks yet I think, but they will and they do sell CDs for $14.50 incl. local shipping (normal prices like $20 or more here (with shipping or in the shops )). If you as many record companies think it's possible to turn back now, I think you're very mistaken. If online sharing is prevented, I think a majority not buying CDs will continue to not buy these. Online services will grow if and only if they have good services, treat the customers right and have a fair price, possibly varying with demand. The only way to meet this situation is head on and not by bullying people to buy music. Because that doesn't work. The situation now is similar to the situation when the punk music had pawed the way for independent record companies in the early eighties. It took the major labels well over a decade to get control of the situation again and independent labels have continued to play a significant part in the evolution of music, again also in the late eighties/early nighties, when the dance music revolution changed the musical landscape worldwide (except for many years in the US). It's still a delight to think of the fact that some tracks for a period of time in the made it to number one in the UK without major channel airplay and without massive store presence, solely by being sold off trucks and markets, often with any label at all (which also happened for a brief period during the early punk era). The reason they could do that was because DJs played tracks in big outdoor parties and on (non profit) pirate radio. The majors, the radio stations and the record companies, initially didn't get it as many times before, that the market for music was changing very very fast. They were actually bypassed to a large extent. Of course, they got hold of the situation again, but things was changed for the better a while at least. Ok, I'm sorry for the length and prolonging this offtopic subject, but I feel strongly about this issue. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Wallstreet battery probs?
Laurent Daudelin said: It could also be the PRAM battery, but I think that the main batteries have to be in working order for the PRAM battery to recharge. I have charged batteries with a dead PRAM on the Wallstreet II and also had a working PRAM hold the data (dates and so on) without a working battery or even without one. So I think they are unrelated. But the charge board coudl have been damaged I suppose or there is no contact internally. Also there is the issue with shielding tape touching the outer ring on the power adapter connector.

Nothing, in fact the study that produced the startling statistics was done to support just such throttling. It was done in the dorm subnets, the worst offenders (accompanied with much wailing and gnashing of teeth at the time); in the other parts of the University it's an issue of inappropriate (and illegal) use of state property. (though that line is blurry, since in many cases systems in research labs actually belong to the grant holder, not the state, moreover large numbers of grad students and even faculty have their own systems on the network. Also, network administration on campus is enormously decentralized, since the computer network was never (and still isn't to some extent) viewed as a purely infrastructure item, like power and phones, but done on a department-by-department and College-by-College basis. It's a mess, but it works. It has also kept us remarkably free from some of the crippling outages experienced by more centralized institutions during various virus and other exploit outbreaks. (for example, Melissa didn't hit us too bad; it completely shut down e-mail at Arizona State up in Tempe. They have the rigid, centralized corporate model of IT up there. Like the reed in a storm, we're flexible, and various parts of campus can easily be quarantined to prevent spread of something. Up north, all roads lead to IT. Everyone must use the central mail server, Exchange-based, of course, dontcha know. On the other hand it was well into the 90's before the UA actually had a general access e-mail system in place, which is why we have a proliferation of academic units (like ours) with their own domain, mail servers, etc. If you wanted e-mail you had to roll your own.) It's complicated, as always, by issues of academic freedom, our status as a public institution and such. This can be an interesting place to work sometimes. Suffice it to say, it's somewhere in between a business and private homes. Anyone who thinks that a University can be efficiently run like a business a) has never worked in one, and b) has never read Dilbert, which after all, arose out of 'efficient' business. I hold no great love for the recoding industry as it stands, and sincerely hope that the proliferation of online sources of music, coupled with the rapidly dwindling costs of music production do in fact fundamentally change the balance in favor of the artists.

Re: which way to connect to tv
I know you can do a video connection and an s-video and assume that all require different cables. Which is a better connection to the tv??? Are there cheaper non-Apple cord equivalents available? Pat :) It depends on the inputs the tv has. Most have composite video with RCA plugs, some have S-video, and some others have VGA and even DVI inputs. In a Powerbook with DVI output (most G4 Powerbooks since the 667MHz model, I think), I'd rank them as 1. DVI 2. VGA 3. S-video 4. Composite (though not an absolute scale; I suppose 2. and 3. may be reversed, depending on tv models). All these options are available from the Powerbook side; of course, the tv could limit your choices. In this case, cables are not a major concern, since they are quite standard. In an earlier Powerbook, you'd rule out DVI, but the rest is about the same. In an iBook, the picture is somewhat more complicated. In some models there is no S-video out port per se; some models do allow an adapter to be attached to the mini-vga port, giving the options of vga, composite and, in some, s-video. On older (white) iBooks (until about the end of 2002) there is a mini-vga (and included adapter) and a composite port, but this port carries both video and audio signals and has a connector similar to the usual stereo mini-plug (with 3 contacts instead of 2). The plug is similar to the ones used, e.g., in some camcorders, but the order of the contacts is different (so that the same port could be used for audio only, with a regular stereo mini-plug, and for audio/video).

How do you unlock a folder that is ensconced on the desktop? I've already tried the Get Info route; the option for unlocking the file is greyed out. Is there a way to unlock it in terminal? Or do I log into root? If so, how? When I tried to trash the folder am told that I don't have enough privileges even though I am the administrator for the computer.

Re: Wallstreet battery probs?
I thought I had fried my PMU (power management unit) and my Wallstreet II battery a few weeks ago, but followed advice given on this list to run Battery Reset from Apple. Didn't work. But I tried it twice more, and it still didn't work. Tried it again two days later, when the battery still showed no charge. Then I noticed the other day that, WOW! The battery was now fully charged! Moral of the story? Have patience. Apparently using Battery Reset, perhaps repeatedly, and then giving things some time - in my case, more than a week - and good results may ensue.

Re: Wallstreet battery probs?, try battery reset software?
Hi, gang. - just picked up a Series II Wallstreet 266. It won't start up unless AC adapter's connected. It came with two BTI batteries but neither one shows any charge lights when installed, and there's no indication that they're charging. Red X through battery icon in menu bar, Battery Monitor CS module options greyed out. I've pulled the batteries and disconnected AC, gonna let it sit a while then check if it's still holding time; couldn't be as simple as needing new PRAM battery, could it? Anybody seen similar issues with your WS? Have you tried battery reset? It's an Apple utility for OS 8.1 and 9 (not sure about 10) that works on Wallstreets and Lombards (but apparently not on Pismos) that resets a battery's microprocessor. Works for batteries that are sound but have the internal controller confused so they are reported to the computer as dead. Here's a bit from the readme file: About Battery Reset 2.0 What Is Battery Reset 2.0? Battery Reset 2.0 addresses a situation that may occur with some PowerBook G3 Series and iBook computers in which the battery, while in the system, doesn't show up in the Control Strip, or a red X appears over the battery icon in the menu bar. Battery Reset 2.0 includes two components. For PowerBook G3 Series computers, a file called Battery Updater is installed in the Extensions folder and an application called Battery Reset is installed on your hard disk. For iBook, only the file called Battery Updater is needed and is installed in the Extensions folder. Installation Requirements To install and use the Battery Reset 2.0 software, you need the following: A PowerBook G3 Series (family number M4753 or M5343) or iBook (family number M2453) computer. The family number is located on the label on the bottom of the computer. Mac OS 8.1 or later installed -- Andrew in Ann Arbor -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Partition schemes
My brother has a clamshell 366 iBook with a 60 GB 4,200 RPM HD now as a single partition with 10.3.9 9.2.2. He rarely uses 9.2.2, but does still use it regularly, so it can't be OS X only. He recently has tried to play so video's (DVD or MOV format) and has a slight stuttering which may be the slow CPU or HD? I will be upgrading his System soon and I'm thinking about partition schemes. I thought a small 2 GB for OS 9.2.2, then a large 48 GB for OS X, and then a 5 GB for video or scratch disk. The questions are: If the final 5 GB partition is on the outer sectors will these have faster access than inner sectors? Could I striped RAID the 48 GB by making two 24 GB and use Disk Utility RAID to get faster access? I've never heard of RAID on a single HD, will this work and actually gain speed? Perhaps I should do the whole drive this way if it is faster. Thanks! Kris -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: PowerBook G4 power supply issues
There could be a short, probably caused by kink, in the line. The sudden loss of power MAY not be sudden because you do not notice the monitor in the upper right hand corner has switched from electrical supply to battery. It was sudden though - I had a full battery in the laptop, which I confirmed by rebooting afterwards. If that is not the culprit, take your Power Book to your local Apple authorized repair shack. They should run a volt meter over the circuits to determine if the Power Book is drawing adequate power from the plug or battery. Good call.

In case it matters my OSX is 10.3 but my first need is to replicate the functionality of the desktop as I migrate/learn/upgrade to OSX. Hi Al: There should be only one OS 9 folder on your PB unless you have more than one partition, in which case, technically you can have more, but really, only ONE OS 9 system folder is recommended, so you can remove the one already installed. I'll assume you have the original install disks for your PB so you can restore it if needed. Classic needs at least OS 9.1, with 9.2.2 recommended - I don't think Panther has changed this requirement - anyone please pipe in on this... I have had success just copying the OS 9 folder over (there is no concern about invisible files in OS 9). On startup of Classic OS X will install what ever files it needs to run Classic. The next time you start up Classic, hold the space key down to bring up Extension Manager. Edit your start up set there. You can also go to System Preferences-Classic-Advanced-Start Up and Other Options and start up Extension Manager from there. You can experiment with what start up set works best for you under Classic. Remember to save whatever original set up you had so you can refer back to it, during testing.

Lock folders
there is a way to do this in terminal as stated in the missing mac manual but I choose not to do it. Instead I booted into OS 9 (not classic) and trashed the folder there. All other attempts to trash the folder in OS X didn't work. I am sure the command in terminal will work and will find and post it if you still need it.
