Re: USB card speed for Wall Streets
Ok. It said 250 in the original e-mail, but Ok. I think the Sonnet lowers the bus speed to 66 MHz. But they did have DVD players on 66 Mhz notebooks (early iBooks), so go for it. I would recommend a CardBus DVD drive. It would be bus powered (less cables) and probably a bit faster. Check compatibility though. And the Wallstreet's DVD decoder card is not supported by OS X in case you didn't know. DVD playing is not supported in OS X on a Wallstreet, precisely because of the decoder card that is not supported. Apple felt they had to put their time and resources somewhere else or they were a little lazy so they decided they wouldn't support it. Now, I think I've seen, back when OS X was released and I was still using a Wallstreet, a few hacks that would describe how to install the DVD player and maybe how to play DVDs using software decoding, but that was a long time ago, so I might be wrong... -Laurent.

Re: Wallstreet Saga Part 3: The Fan
Pull the battery out, and the power plug out. Leave it for a while (try a few minutes first, and then leave it overnight if nothing happens), and plug everything back in. If the fan doesn't turn back on, try booting (if you can't boot, reset the power manager holding the keys for 10 seconds then waiting for 20 seconds). Hopefully that will improve the situation a bit.

Dual batteries and OS X, Processor upgrades
I have a few questions about PBG3 Wallstreets. Before I buy a second battery, I had a few questions: 1a) Will OS X recognize both batteries (if you have one in each bay)? 1b) If it does, does it treat it as one large battery, or does it give you two battery indicators? Also, I want to upgrade the processor. But I don't have $300-$400 to spend on a 500 MHz G3 or G4. I've looked on eBay, but that didn't help much.

Re: G4 Ti Powerbook accident :-(
You aren't the first person on this list to spill beer on their Powerbook... I thought it might be as simple as brightness, and but it is turned all the way up. Incidentally, turning the brightness all the way down then all the way back up makes no discernable difference to the screen. So maybe it is a brightness thing, and it is just stuck at the lowest...? What OS are you running? Is it Jag? I have had brightness problems in 10.2. Try booting to an OS 9 CD if you have one. -Dustin -Original Message- From: G-Books [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Susan Casey Bennett Sent: Saturday, November 30, 2002 7:04 PM To: G-Books Subject: G4 Ti Powerbook accident :-( Hi, This is my first post to this list. I had used low end mac's Quadra list while refurbishing my old Quadra to give to a friend and the folks there were so helpful. I am hoping to have similar luck here. You see, I've done something absolutely awful to my dear Ti Powerbook! Feel free to tell me what an idiot I am... believe me, that's what I am saying to myself!! You see I accidentally spilled beer(!) on the surface of the laptop. It was a bottle less than half full and it tipped onto the laptop. The opening landed right about between the space bar and the track pad. The second it tipped I grabbed it, so it only had a half a second to spill. And it wasn't full. So it's not like it poured in. I immediately soaked up what was there with paper towels (cussing profusely...) The liquid was mostly confined to this area of the lower keyboard. I removed the keyboard pad, and very carefully soaked up any droplets that I saw. Again, there wasn't a whole lot, it wasn't soaked. Mostly just at the ridge where the keyboard sits. I opened the battery area and wiped in there and wiped the battery. I removed the back and there was a small amount on the back metel cover. I looked inside and used a non static dry cloth to very carefull soak up anything I could see, but there wasn't much. There was one droplet on the large chip in the center that I think said lucent (is that the processor?) But not much to get from the back. I put it all back together, and booted it up. It did boot up, but the screen was all dark. I could barely make out the desktop underneath. I let it run for a short while hoping the heat generated might help evaporate anything. No change, restarted, no change. So I shut down and packed it up and left it propped up with one corner down (the cd corner) hoping if there is anything in there it could flow down and out. I left it like that overnight. Went to bed and prayed for my mac. Today, started up, and same thing. Everything seems to work, but the screen is very dark. I can barely see the desktop, but I can see enough to see that it seems normal in there. I opened the monitors control panel and tried to adjust the monitor to overcompensate for the darkness. Not able to make any significant difference. I thought it might be as simple as brightness, and but it is turned all the way up. Incidentally, turning the brightness all the way down then all the way back up makes no discernable difference to the screen. So maybe it is a brightness thing, and it is just stuck at the lowest...? I've left it running so it can warm up and evaporate or whatever. I linked to it via ethernet, and everything appears to be there, and normal when linked remotely. I ran norton on it and it was fine. So, the good news is that it seems to be ok except for the monitor display (which of course is a pretty crucial feature!) There is only one local mac service place here and I don't have alot of faith in them... would rather try to troubleshoot this myself if I can. I am kicking myself so much, I absolutely love this laptop and I can't believe I have done this. Can any of you help me with any ideas of how to remedy this problem? Thanks and sorry so long...

Re: G4 Ti Powerbook accident :-(
Still on 9.2.2 If you have the CD try to boot to it anyway...also try zapping PRAM. Maybe it's just a setting that got stuck. Check out this Apple tech doc: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449 Inverter, hmmm? Is this something I can replace myself? I finally found an inverter for a PowerBook G4. If you were to replace it yourself it would be expensive ($180-350) and risky. I can't find any info on how to replace one. If clearing the settings doesn't work, I recommend calling Apple.

Re: Installing OS X 10.2 on Wallstreet Help!
Sometimes when the screen is about to go to the spinning disc under the apple, the screen gets a bunch of horizontal lines and everything grinds to halt. This happens to me sometimes too. I just restart, and everything is fine. Never happens when the computer wakes from sleep though. sometimes it will get to the blue install screen. The installer window opens and then the installer fails with an unexpected error and asks me to reboot. Is it giving you an error code? That would be helpful. I would recommend backing everything up and doing a full format. My drive was clean when I installed 10.2, and I had no problems. If you want to try anything other than a full reformat, you may want to try using X Post Facto to install OS X. It may help.

Re: G3 vs G4
I'm assuming you are comparing a PowerBook G4/500 to an iBook/800. I'd go with the iBook/800 12'' screen with a CD Burner. It's newer, smaller, and has QE capabilities the latter of which would benefit the things you said you wanted to do with it. -Dustin -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: G3 vs G4
Hi all,an opinion question,for web surfing and mpeg downloading and playing,is a G3 800 as fast or faster than a G4 500mhz machine running OS10.2 ? thankyou in advance In OS 10.2 everything will be a bit faster on a G4, but I'm not sure about that big of a clock speed gap. If you are going to be doing basic stuff (downloading, playing music, etc) then go with the cheaper one. You also might want to look at things other than the CPU speed, such as hard drive size (essential for all of that music) I'm assuming you are comparing a PowerBook G4/500 to an iBook/800. The TiBooks are cooler (figuratively, anyway) and you can add a CD Burner if it isn't already there. The screen on the TiBook is MUCH larger than most iBooks's. The iBook will beat the older TiBook's by a good margin in gaming because of their much faster and more recent video cards. Also, only the iBook's video card can do Quartz Extreme. The iBook is more compact -Dustin -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
