Re: Internet / 1400
Hello, My lower back is DOA. Has been for about a month, and I need to look at another option rather than sitting at this dark desktop machine. sorry to hear about this. I earn my money by sitting in front of a PC. What i can tell you, you are not alone ;) I can get the 1400 online, except it stops at getting online during the last step, where it lets you know when you are on. It just quites and gives me an error message and the modem doesn't finish getting on. The 1400 has 64 megs of memory and doubled using ram doubler. Any ideas. Sitting on this chair, at this computer, is killing my back. You should post the error. What you descrivbe can have many causes. From uncomplete installation or damaged hardware to wrong/not working ISP acount. Some additional hints. If you look straight forward your view should point to a little bit below the center of screen. If not , put something below the screen. Avoid it to stare down to the monitor. Such kills your neck and later the rest of yur back. Get a better chair. After you have set up optimal ergonomic tablehight and position of monitor, the chair is more neccessary as you probably want to belief. My back was killing me for years. I tried out a lot. Medics, massage, gymnastics and what else... Finally i found the japanese way of computing ;) Wich means for me: no chair at all. http://www.ryzom.de.eu.org/pics/DSCF1050.JPG I found this out while trying Shiatsu (i also have a grade in Shiatsu). Sitting in seiza http://www.mkzc.org/seiza.jpg is the most natural way to sit. Beginners might use the small chair. Advanced ones dont need the small chair. This way of sitting needs a little more discipline to sit. After a while your body gets used to it and you will start to sit more consciously. Give it a try. Your back will be thankful. -- +---+ | () Gruesse/regards [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | /\ Manfred Guentnerwww.serv.de.eu.org | +---+ -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: compact flash memory as virtual memory
So, I was reading this article about using compact flash memory as virtual memory. http://www.lowendmac.com/macdan/02/1114dk.html It seemed helpful as my sister has a Ti Book with only 256 MB RAM and a battery that runs down quickly. It seems that using a CF card could be a solution to both problems. But I've never done this before so could use some advice. Has anyone had experience with this? Any suggestions as to how to go about it? Which card to use? What to look out for or be careful with? Thanks for your time, This is usually done on machines that are maxed out on their limited RAM capacity. Models such as the 5300 and 1400. You are better off increasing the real RAM on this model instead -- Clark Martin Ok Clark, I will recommend that to her. Also, I do have a 1400. So the questions still apply.

Why won't 280c boot?
Hi all, A quick question: I have a 280c with a SCSI Dock adapter connected to an Apple Mini-Dock; the SCSI Dock adapter is also connected to a properly terminated external Apple ROM SCSI CD-ROM drive; inside, Apple OS 8. I have never gotten this arrangement to boot; holding down the C key, all I get are the chimes of death - doesn't the 280c allow CD booting? I know SCSI concerns are NOT the issue; but can't figure out what is. Any thoughts? Thank you, Dana -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
