Re: More mass bounced emails...
Got another huge boatload of bounced emails today from trinettejohn...@fuse.net - some dating as far back as August of last year. This also happened around April 19 of this year. Maybe the mechanics are like this: some robot sends our G-list postings to that Fusenet address (postmas...@fuse.net) which then gets overloaded and sends us a The user(s) account is temporarily over quota message for each of those postings. (Fortunately, mine are promptly moved to my spam folder. Google Mail isn't perfect, but on such occasions, I'm really happy about it!) So it looks like this is in fact an attack aimed at fuse.net rather than at us; the originator uses our posts as ammunition to try and overload their server. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: Interesting Problem
Sorry, Chuck - I misread the part about the Safari update difficulty, which sent me off into outer space with a lot of irrelevant speculation. 3. Have you ever run the program Monolingual in Leopard, or indeed, in a previous OS X that Leopard was installed over? That would be a yes. This may or may not bear on the interesting problem, but I have heard that use of Monolingual can have unpredictable consequences on subsequent updates. I ran Monolingual on Tiger 10.4.11 and haven't noticed any trouble since, but I was fortunate to run across an article on prudent and cautious use of Monolingual before I tried it. I haven't run Monolingual on Leopard 10.5.8 (which I didn't install over Tiger but on a fresh partition), but then again, the old Tiger Home folder did migrate to Leopard. Still, though, no obvious problems have been noted as a result. I'm glad Bruce chimed in on the client question. I wanted to say 'go ahead, don't worry about it,' but looking at the Apple download page, I got confused myself. They make it confusing. Everything is somehow recommended for all users. Gee, that helps. Very frustrating, waiting on the slow progress of updates. But is your dial-up connection really *that* slow ordinarily? I had great, reliable dial-up service with Earthlink for years. I think it was about as good as a dial-up connection can be. Even so, dial-up is dial- up, and any big updates or other large downloads were projects rather than routine tasks. I remember it well, and with no nostalgia.

Re: G4 933 to G5 1.8
The advantage to the FX 5200 is that it fully supports both Quartz Extreme and Core Image, where the GeForce 4 only supports Quartz Extreme. Leopard uses these features to accelerate UI features but I don't know how much Tiger takes advantage of them. The Ti4600 would probably be faster for gaming but I honestly would stick with the FX 5200 if you're going to use Leopard. Also as Valter said there might be compatibility problems with the slot.

AFAIK, the G4 Ti (I own a Ti 4600 128MB) is way faster than the FX 5200. The FX 5200, although newer, is really a very-low-end video card. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
