X pdf libraries generate a pdf.


I'm not willing to risk it for a work-related document.

YMMV.

I use a similar product made by Targus, so I can second Fabian's

Re: Lombard running hot.

That sounds like a good plan, but with my funding for the next little 
bit going towards purchasing a Newer Technologies 7200 mAh battery for 
the aforementioned Lombard, I'm looking for more of a homebrew 
solution. I'll see about getting one of the Targus units when I can, 
though.

Re: Lombard running hot

2005-12-14 Thread Andrew in Ann Arbor

Are there any good, cheap solutions to keeping the Lombard cool. I've
got a Lombard 400 with OS 10.2.8, and it seems that it's always running
hot. I usually have it going while I'm relaxing on the couch, for
comfort reasons. Any suggestions?


Are you using the computer on a pillow or something soft?
Powerbooks shed a fair amount of heat through the underside.
If placing the 'book on a hard surface fixes the problem then all you 
need is a small bit of plywood to got on top of your pillow and you're 
home free.

Most of the time, it's in my lap, or on a comforter, so I'll try the 
hard surface idea. Also, would placing a book or something of that

USB2 for Pismo - use a PCI Card?

Hello List,

Is there a PCI Card out there for a USB2 port that
works with a Pismo?  Are there any other options for
adding USB2 to a Pismo?

A Pismo has a single CardBus / PC Card (PCMCIA) slot, no PCI.  Yes 
you can put a CardBus USB 2.0 card in there.  But it will only work 
at USB 2.0 speed under OS X.

Re: USB2 for Pismo - use a PCI Card?

2005-12-14 Thread Caleb Cupples
The easiest method for either a Pismo or Lombard is to use a cardbus 
adapter, as far as I know.  I'm sure someone else knows which models 
work best, but as far as the basics go, the cardbus is the way to go.


Hope this helps,
