IMO Appleworks is better than iWork.

help, i'm going deaf!

2011-01-18 Thread Jeffrey Daile Engle
here's the problem...

While using my powermac G5, I use ichat, skype and other video conferencing 
software. When I get an invite to chat, I have to turn my (system) volume way 
up to hear the caller. Then when the chat is over, heaven forbid if I had 
itunes playing a song earlier, because the song is now 1400 decimals!! and the 
race is on to turn down the volume before my ears burst and the neighbors call 
the police for noise pollution.

What I need is a way to control iChat/skype volume without altering the system 
volume? any way to do this??

TIA, from

Hello Jeff,

1. Powered USB speakers with a volume control on one speaker,
sitting on the desk next to you.

2. Use headphones, or a headset.

Good luck,

Bruce Sugarberg

You could route the audio through Audio Hijack Pro using Soundflower, 
and use the AU/VST effects to boost the signal but it may be more 
distorted by the time it gets to you. Can't hurt to try if you own AHP, 
Soundflower is free.

Oldest Mac operating system for Sawtooth

2011-01-18 Thread Sean Carroll
I'm wondering what the oldest Mac operating system is that I could
install and run on my Power Mac G4 AGP. I researched it as best I
could in order to avoid asking such a silly question here. No luck.
One of the reasons I plan to keep this Sawtooth (or possibly another
pre-Intel Power Mac) is to be able to run older systems on it. Not
much practical reason for this beyond (before) Mac OS 9.2.2. Just for
fun and to satisfy some curiosity.

Thanks.

Sean
