I am not getting anything for telling this list . I just thought I would inform listers as these seem to bee in demand. The page I referred to the other day says the silvers can be flashed to Gold specs.

Hey, I have a PowerBook 1400cs/133. I was wondering if there was any way to increase the performance other than upgrading anything. I have OS 8.1 installed and 32MB RAM and a 1 GIG HD. Thanks! ___ Run a plain background in reduced color or even gray scale. No virtual memory. Set up a RAM disk and copy programs to it before running them from RAM. Run a minimum of extensions. Set up extension sets that have the minimum for the program task. Set up several and switch according to the work you need to do. minimum size on icons and text. Keep program memory allocations as high as OS overhead and physical RAM will allow but you will only run 1 program at a time. OS 8.1 should be the best for this as it has a small overhead to begin with. You could even try 7.53 perhaps. But 8.1 is probably more stable, not sure . It's been a long time. All I can think of for now. Mine has 40 MB and runs 9.1 but it's a Hog for this machine. I just like the features. Fast enough to do good Photoshop on smaller pics . And handles Clarisworks quite well. Even in thousands of colors. at 166 MHz. And 800X600 aspect. ITunes works well if run alone.

They have a terrible record for being used to scam people out of their money. Your purchases are guaranteed..but you have to pay a small service fee to get your money back so Paypal makes a profit on someones illegal activity. And who do you think pays for the losses ? It doesn't come out of Paypal's profits. The customers pay for it just as in all credit card losses and the scammers move on. The best thing to use for on-line purchases are the US Post Office money orders. They are as good as cash and can be cashed at any US post office. If you are ripped-off, the US Postal Inspectors office will be working to get the thieves stopped and possibly get your item or money back. I like the idea that justice will be served better much better than just a refund. Personally I won't send an individual I have never dealt with any more $$ than I can afford to loose. There's nothing I have to have that bad. I watch Ebay local auctions by doing a search by zip code and if you are in a large metro area you can find a lot of stuff that can be picked up. You can avoid outrageous shipping costs by picking up Ebay stuff too. I have found some good deals because the high shipping cost on heavy objects can keep people from bidding. If I don't have to pay shipping (email the seller first) I can afford to bid more. And I can meet the person I'm buying it from. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: Safe and Secure
Thanks! All your responses are helpful. All of his trans on Ebay were buys. No sells. So it is harder to watch. I will go with the USPS money order. I like that idea of them going after them if they don't send it. Kewl, Dave [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote me on 5.2.05 8:58 PM. Krow Magnum loves Macs! The best thing to use for on-line purchases are the US Post Office money orders. They are as good as cash and can be cashed at any US post office. If you are ripped-off, the US Postal Inspectors office will be working to get the thieves stopped and possibly get your item or money back. I like the idea that justice will be served better much better than just a refund. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: FW: Safe and Secure
Personally, I like paypal--never had a problem with them yet (knocking wood.) And this 50+ year-old really likes those newfangled ways--I can't even remember when I paid a bill using a check rather than my bank's free online billpay. (Did you know that Paypal also offers free online billpay--tho it has to be a provider that's already set up to accept electronic payment. My bank's system will cut a check and mail it for me, say, to my Dr. Paypal won't. But they cover a very large number of utilities, credit cards, etc.) Later.Howard Computer n.

They have a terrible record for being used to scam people out of their money. Your purchases are guaranteed..but you have to pay a small service fee to get your money back so Paypal makes a profit on someones illegal activity. When I got scammed Paypal refunded all the money. I don't remember paying any service fee. Pete. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
