Re: Road Warriors [OSX hates modems]

2002-12-10 Thread Andrew Chong
My wife also has no problem with her Wallstreet which has given her 
another reason to smirk with smug satisfaction as I grumble on with 
OS 9.
Maybe i should have put [OSX hates me]?

Re: Road Warriors [OSX hates modems]

2002-12-09 Thread Andrew Chong
Thanks for the tip, I've been trying all weekend without success. The 
symptoms look worryingly similar to my loss of internet communication 
on my G3400 tower; handshake succeeds but no reception. There is no 
problem using LAN or OS 9.

I think OSX hates modems, I thought X.2.2 was going to save me but no. Hmph

Re: Portable color recommendations

I've got a canon BJC 85, it's the larger but cheaper of the 2 mini 
printers from canon. Cheap being a relative issue.

It prints well but the EXTERNAL battery option is extra and the 
advertised IR feature only works with windoze machines. USB drivers 
work fine with OSX.1.5 and 9.X. Not used Jag yet.

Re: Screw problem

2002-07-29 Thread Andrew Chong

Sorry that this is a bit 'after the fact' - but I would like to 
eulogise about a product introduced to me by a puppet maker - Zip 
Kicker is a superglue catalyst. It's available under different brands 
but that's the one I know. You can get the same result as epoxy in 
seconds! Spot of glue in the head, drip of catalyst on the driver, 
bring them together and an exothermic 3 seconds pause gives a solid 
fusion. You get multiple chances with fresh applications.

Brilliant get out of trouble stuff!

We have a shared multi-printer HP OfficeJet [it's the cousin nobody

Re: Wallstreet firewire pc card q?

2002-07-19 Thread Andrew Chong

Advice from a resller who told me that Wallstreet Macs used different 
types of connections on the PCMCIA bus set me off on investigation 
into Firewire cards. Nothing I could find mentioned the PC-cardbus, 
BUT the slowest recommended processor speed for adding Firewire was 
300MHz [Belkin]; Swann recommends 400MHz which I think means yuo'd 
need a Firewire equiped PowerBook in the first place.

I don't have the bottle or cash to have a punt but if you get one to 
work I'd like to know.
