OS X on a G3 233MHz
Hi all, I'd appreciate some feedback from anyone currently running (or with prior experience of running) OS X on a G3 233 Mhz processor. Just a brief word or two on general speed of system would suffice. Additional comments on how MS Office X performs would be a bonus. Happy for them to be sent direct to me if you prefer. TIA, Matt.

Re: Cataloguing issues
Also, you can't put a PHP/SQL database onto a CD to distribute it to multiple users on multiple platforms if you ever decide to do so. FileMaker does this relatively painlessly. The best part is the licencing of a CD to distribute - *not*. AFAIK Filemaker standalone executables made with the developers tools don't need to be licenced. As to licensing the content of the database, surely the information's just as copyable as when it's viewed on a web page?

Re: Cataloguing issues
Then again, distributing CDs is such a dark ages model :-) It's easy to slap a database up on a web server, then it's always up to date.

Cubic VR vs normal VR's?
Hey gang, I've been developing some QuickTime VR panoramas and have stumbled upon something called Cubic VR's. As I understand it, QuickTime 5 for both Mac PC can view cubic VR's, but how do I create them?! Normal VR panoramas are long images which are wrapped around, but this doesn't enable the person in the scene to look directly up or directly down. Cubic VR's should be able to let me provide a fully immersive solution, but how do I create the images which then get transformed into cubic VR's? If it helps I'm using Art*Lantis 4 to create the VR's at the moment, but they're not cubic. Cheers, Darren. P.S. If you're bored, or want a sneak peek, the new Telethon 2002 Home web site at http://telethon.7perth.com.au/home so you can view the VR's that I've created there.

Re: Ink Cartridges
Try going to www.newreality.com.au they do extremely good refill kits for many types of printers include Epson Stylus 740's (I have the exact same printer). I'm pretty sure they do new cartridges too. Ruben A. Franke Any one know the cheapest place to get ink cartridges for a Epson Stylus 740 printer? -- ~ Robert Griffin Morgan Got a Question?

IE 5.1 OS X
Hi all, recently IE 5.1 on OS X.1.3 , G4 QS 867mhz, has decided to occasionally not work. - random occurances, quiting and re-opening doesn't help. the program opens fine but won't connect to any web pages, it just says looking for www.apple.com.au (as an example) in the bar at the bottom of the window. There is no problem with the connection, as I can use Netscape in classic, but it is a pain waiting for classic to load up etc etc. Any hints, I would have deleted the prefs in OS 9 but what to do in OS X - are there prefs to delete? Cheers James
