crashing sys. prefs.
Hi In 10.2, system prefs crash when I attempt to open networking. This is on a 550 Tibook with airport card installed. I have not added anything new lately. But, I wanted to load the drivers for a Linksys card from ioxperts. Thanks Billy -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Network card
Hi; I have a Linksys networking card and I was wondering if it will work in my G4 powerbook, or if there is third party software work around? OR does anyone have a recommendation for a compatible networking card. I want a little more distance than my airport card permits. Thanks Billy -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

It was a bit awkward to properly tuck in the ribbon cables when installing my (not-included) 2.5 drive mechanism, but the instructions were clear and it was not difficult. I also appreciated that the manufacturer even includes a wee screwdriver with the product. I anticipate that with repeated drive replacements this ribbon cable will break, so don't plan on frequently swapping mechanisms. Another nice thing about this housing, aside from the convenience of being an internal (expansion bay) device, is that it IS fully bootable, unlike firewire/usb/PCMCIA solutions. Now I have a way to back up, and boot up, my Powerbook, aside from the CD-ROM. $119, MCE Xcarat Pro 99, http://www.smalldog.com/product/39290 [This might sound like an advertisement, but it isn't. I've been an advocate of the PCMCIA external housings on this list for a while, but the discovery that I can't boot from them with my Pismo (as I could with my 1400), got me looking for other options.] --Jim. Hi: Forgive the long quote, but I wonder if anyone else has experience with these enclosures? I believe others have mentioned these drives hanging resulting in their machines overheating. Also. Way off topic, I'm interested in using Direct TV or Dish Network to connect to the internet. Salespersons say it only works with PCs.(ie. No hardware for Mac) Is there a work-around? TIA.
