I hate being illegal!  It does say it is illegal if sold outside 
Thailand...i thought ebay didn't deal in this sort of thing? Tho i 
noticed when I went back to question this guy about this he had been 
removed as a seller. Is this why?

The game is Juiced...something about fast cars...where are the noble 
men of our culture getting their training??? angst!

The Dell in question is my husband's work laptop only home in the 
evenings...not here now...

His sister got a cheap Dell inspiron 1150 for graduation...the 
processor is already bad we think...it runs much slower than it used 
to...my other daughter and I are mac stable!

iLife and G3 upgrade for WS

[Mike K]

I have an old Wallstreet 233/512 cache. I love it cuz it gives 6 hours of
battery life, but it's very slow and too slow for OS X. However I found a
fairly inexpensive G3 upgrade (Avanti G3 400MHz) that I would like to
install with some more RAM (512MB) and then load OSX. I want to do all this
so I can run iLife and after looking at the requirements I need OS 10.3.
Will OS 10.3 install on this notebook? Do I need a helper app like Xpost to
get it running? I heard 10.3 only installs on USB Macs. If it will not
install on this PowerBook then which one will it including iBooks? I know
this would be the bare minimum for iLife but that's fine, later on I may get
a faster Mac depending on how much I like the applications themselves.
Thanks for any help regarding this.

The Sims on WSII

[Mike K]

I installed the Sims on OS9.2.2 (the original Sims) and I'm trying to play
it. It starts up, asks for a resolution, I click play and immediately get
"Error code = 17". I installed the latest update, restarted, tried 1024x768
and 800x600, etc. Anyone gotten "The Sims" to run on OS9.2.2 before? It
installs fine so it must be compatible. Thanks!

Its not that American cars are junk it's that a lot of people don't know how
to take care of them. Change the oil and perform regular maintenance and
200k + miles is not a problem. I've had several American cars last this
long, foreign too. Working on 201k on a Toyota and has a Pontiac Bonneville
with 214k on it before I traded it. 

PC's and Macs become obsolete because of advances in technology and software
requirements, not because people throw them away.

A LOT of people don't know what an iBook is, but a lot of people know what a
notebook is. 

Just defending the American public and fighting "hate".
