Re: Free Wireless Internet access on the road report
A growing chain throughout the midwest, called Panera's Cafe offers free wifi at almost all of their establishments. I'm pretty sure there's a good number of them on the West Coast too. (several near here are located near a Starbucks, who charge $6/hour!). Also if you need an email fix, be sure to look up local libraries and community colleges--more and more of them offer free wifi too. Later.Howard We have them in the Northeast, too.

Re: Is Apple really moving to x86 architechture?! [signed]
Please remember all the hoopla about Apple shifting to Unix with OSX. Cries of doomsday and a big Wass'up. Apple shifting to an open system??? It's all been uphill pretty much. The biggest problem Apple had with Motorola/IBM was delivering a faster chip for their laptops, one of the bigger selling sectors. There seems to be a wider horizon opening up. Intel is a chip making company period. IBM had so little expertise they had to sell their computer manufacturing unit. Remember IBM was responsible for Microsoft, practically giving them DOS, figuring it wasn't worth much and clearing the way for BG and crew to monopolize the OS for pc's. Open vistas ahead, maybe even getting game for Mac! I'm sure this is a well thought strategy for the future.

Re: Lombard snags [signed]
As a former Lombard owner I can empathize. It had a serious flaw on wake up and was known as the sleep of death. It would be worth it to send it to Daystar - http://daystartechnology.com/ and upgrade. It solves your dvd problem and gives you the altivec engine. Then you'll never have these problems. (I was never able to get Panther on my Lombard -got a kernel panic) I plan on upgrading. There is also a person named Chuck Wright on e.Bay who specializes in Lombards and has scads of parts. I bought a logic board from him and was very satisfied with his handling of the sale. He also turned me on to a website that has the service manual for the Lombard (it's in pdf format) http://www.whoopis.com/computer_repair/PowerBook_G3_Series_Bronze_kbd.pdf Happy sailing, (I really like the old Lomby) BTW, I also remember it being picky about memory ups. = Mike Amato mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Kristina [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: G-Books G-Books@mail.maclaunch.com Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2005 18:50:06 -0500 To: G-Books G-Books@mail.maclaunch.com Subject: Re: Lombard snags on 6/16/05 2:56 PM, Kristina at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: RESTART It looks like it has a serious hardware problem, maybe the hard disk or the memory.

Re: powerbook g3 pismo battery problem
From MacDaily News - Report: Apple Mac OS X 10.4.1 for Intel hits piracy sites Saturday, June 11, 2005 - 12:14 PM EST There is nothing at all that prevents the version of Mac OS X that runs on the developer transition machines from running on any PC with compatible components, Jeff Harrell writes for The Shape of Days. The Intel-based Power Macintoshes that Apple is showing at their developer conference are based on an Intel motherboard, generic Intel graphics and off-the-shelf Pentium 4 CPUs... I estimate that we¹re down to a matter of hours before Mac OS X 10.4.1 for Intel hardware is available for download on Internet software piracy sites and peer-to-peer piracy networks. (Update: A reader who for obvious reasons wishes to remain anonymous just demonstrated to me that the software is, in fact, already available on Internet software piracy sites.) If I can think through this stuff, Apple¹s management can think through this stuff. This is the most awe-inspiring stealth marketing move I¹ve ever seen. According to reports, Apple¹s bundled iLife applications, major selling points for the Mac operating system, are already Intel-native and run at full speed... Given Apple¹s experiences with software piracy, particularly the rampant software piracy that spread developer builds of Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger all over the Internet this past spring, Apple¹s management from the top down knows full well that this developer preview will be in the hands of every kid with a cable modem within days of its release. Most of them will be able to install it on their own computers and run it and the full suite of iLife ¹05 applications at full speed, and run most existing Mac software in translation. As a result, Apple will give thousands, possibly millions, of people a taste of Mac OS X running full speed on their own PCs. Apple¹s giving their potential future customers a free taste, that¹s what they¹re doing. It¹s a try-before-you-buy deal, Harrell writes. = Mike Amato mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
