Lombard running hot/Pismo also
I had concerns about heat with a Pismo. I solved that problem by raising the Pismo up and also gaining more traction. I found some large rubber bumpers (maybe an inch and a quarter square and half an inch high) - the same ones as used under objects placed on wooden tables - like the little ones used to keep paintings from scratching the wall. I put 11 of them under the Pismo - four in front, four in back and three in the center - roughly following the internal structural supports. The machine doesn't slide an inch (11 bumpers in a small area is a lot of friction), there is plenty of airspace underneath, and I've had them on for three years without replacement. My two sons in Mac-related work wince when they see it - but I think it works. Paul -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Lombard running hot/Pismo also
My final solution was to pull the rubber pads off a monitor stand I had lying around. Mine are about 1/2 inch high and about an inch wide. I also wince when I look at it, but then I remember the cooling effects. Thanks for all the help, everyone. Caleb On Friday, Dec 16, 2005, at 07:43 America/Chicago, Paul K.

Lombard memory
Hello there fellow G-Bookies I have information that I need confirmed regarding the ram in the Lombard. I know there are two memory slots, I also know that the Lombard can take up to 512mb of ram. I also know or think I know that one of the ram sticks must be low profile in order to work in the Lombard. Am I correct in this knowledge. And if not then would someone on the list please enlighten me. If I am correct then would someone on the list please enlighten me as to which slot takes the low profile ram stick.

Re: Lombard memory
Yes, there are two slots. One does have to be low profile, because the lower slot is located underneath the processor daughtercard. Hope this helps.

Re: 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? Thanks, Barry Barry, I just use a standard PCMCIA card adapter which I acquired on eBay for under $20.00. It works great with my iPod 30 gig video. (I'm assuming that's what you want it for).

Re: USB2 for Pismo - use a PCMCIA Card?
Zoltan et al., Thanks for the tips. Its nice to see that there is a cheap solution for this issue. Actually I need the card for a Canoscan 8400F that purchased and then saw the spec for USB 2.0. I'd rather attach the scanner to my 1 GHz eMac, but looks like I'm out of luck there as it only has Firewire and USB 1.1 - and, as far as I can tell, no options for rigging a USB 2 device up to it.

Re: USB2 for Pismo - use a PCMCIA Card?
Allow me to answer that question. Apple dropped Firewire support with the 5G, or Video iPod, so Zoltan can't use Firewire with it. Hope this helps, Caleb P.S.

Intel Macs (Was USB2 for Pismo - Use a PCMCIA Card?)
Well, to be honest, I'm looking forward to the new Intel PowerBooks, just because I think Apple is making a good move. I love the PowerPC, but the x86 hardware runs cooler than the G4 or G5.

Re: Intel Macs (Was USB2 for Pismo - Use a PCMCIA Card?)
I should clarify that my G3 runs cooler than any of my PC notebooks have, but the G4 is just plain hot, and not only in the styling department. Ask anyone who has used a TiBook or an AlBook for any length of time. Plus, the G5 has to have water cooling to run at a decent temperature. I honestly think that Apple on x86 is the right move, but I just hope it's smoother than the 68K to PPC transition. As an Apple fan, I'll remain loyal for a long time, however. I have faith in Apple's quality, which is why I'm waiting to go Intel with Apple.

Pismo start up problem
Hi, I just tried to install additional memory into a Pismo I just got. It was working fine before I tried to add memory to the machine. When I tried to start up after putting the memory in the slots, I got a beep. I tried again and got the same thing. Figuring the problem was the new memory, I replaced the original memory and started up again. I got the chime, but now the computer cannot find a start-up volume. Tried resetting the PRAM a few times without luck. Started up and went to openfirmware, reset the nvram successfully as the machine restarted. But it still can't find a start-up volume. Decided to try to start-up from the Tiger DVD, still no luck. Any suggestions? Jim Sanderson -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Intel Macs (Was USB2 for Pismo - Use a PCMCIA Card?)
Not all G5 PowerMacs are water cooled - though that may have changed with the dual core machines. Actually my G5 dualie runs cooler than my Pentium machine (judged both by reported processor temps and the heat from the fans and the fans on my dualie almost run more than the lowest speed.) My aluminum PowerBook does run a good deal warmer than the Centrino notebook I have at work. However, before getting the Centrino machine I had a P4 notebook that ran just as hot. What I'm looking forward to is a Mac notebook that gets more than 2 hours from battery. The only thing I like about my Acer notebook is the fact that I get just over 5 hours use of it before having to swap batteries. david On Dec 16, 2005, at 9:41 PM, Caleb Cupples wrote: I should clarify that my G3 runs cooler than any of my PC notebooks have, but the G4 is just plain hot, and not only in the styling department.

I honestly think that Apple on x86 is the right move, but I just hope it's smoother than the 68K to PPC transition. As an Apple fan, I'll remain loyal for a long time, however. I have faith in Apple's quality, which is why I'm waiting to go Intel with Apple.

Re: Intel Macs (Was USB2 for Pismo - Use a PCMCIA Card?)
I didn't know about the air-cooled G5. However, I do remember the G3 Lombard and Pismo managing extraordinary battery life on one or two batteries. Then again, I'll be using my Lombard through the end of High School, so there. I'll have to check real-world life on mine, but I'm sure it'll keep up with a Centrino on battery life with a new one..
