Re: place to replace aluminum panels onsite...
If you don't think the scratch is biggie, perhaps you can talk them into giving you some cash for the damage and you can go on your merry way...

Re: Pismo w/Tiger - battery time reduced and not calculated
It's interesting.

This has always been very accurate, but now is stuck 'calculating'. Second, it seems that my runtime is significantly reduced - probably around 50%.

Re: Doesn't anyone wait anymore?!
Well... On the date of the release of Tiger, at 6:00 p.m. I found myself in line waiting for the Apple Store to re-open. They opened up the store's door and about 200 or so of us faithfuls were in line and under a general applause we entered the Store. The Apple personnel were distributing some sort of scratch and win game... I won an iTune! Upon entry, I proceeded to go straight to the counter and purchased my fresh copy of Tiger. I came home soon thereafter, and installed on my TiG4, 15, 1Ghz. I figured, bugs or no bugs, I will deal with it. I did the same when 10 came out. Then the same when 10.2 came out. The same with 10.3. Never had any issues (major ones) to deal with. Some of us are crazy that way. ___ NBT On May 4, 2005, at 19:36, Pacer wrote: My Fellow PowerBook-philes and Zoltan, I purchased Tiger right away but did not install it right away.

Re: Limewire
Although the bulk of the money earned by the artists comes from the concerts and other merchandizing schemes and not from sales of CDs. The money from the CD sales mostly goes to the music companies.

Re: Limewire
Yes. You are right. Sharing music has a potential, although slim, to hurt independent do-it-yourself artists. Although there are many artists who have benefited from sharing by having been able to bypass the monopoly the music industry exercises on distribution.

The money from the CD sales mostly goes to the music companies. Many artists in all genres are producing and releasing CDs independently. It can cost an independent artist tens of thousands of dollars (or Euros, etc) to record and master their album. Thus the artist needs to sell 1000-5000 CDs simply to break even. We're not talking profit, just recouping costs. If someone copies a CD instead of buying it, the potential that the big bad greedy music company that is being ripped off is actually an artist with boxes of CDs collecting dust in the basement.

It remains black until everything is loaded and then I have to MANUALLY, press the monitor brightness button in order to get the monitor to come on. If I try hard enough, I can see the shadow of what goes on on the monitor when it is black. Does anyone have a clue? The monitor functioned perfectly well under OS 9.2.2.
