One update since its release is pathetic :-( And the update mainly contained ways to stop people hacking their AppleTVs, rather than expanding on the product (YouTube addition was just to keep pace with the iPod Touch and the iPhone). Nice site though :-) Neat and tidy, rather than a billion banner ads.

Re: Does RAM go bad?
Yes, RAM can go bad after twelve months. I supply my clients with lifetime warranty from Amicroe, and I've replaced RAM that was 6 years old straight from the manufacturer no problems at all. So in my view, if you can get it with a lifetime warranty for a few extra dollars,..do so. It might be worth it.

If it works when you install it what are the chances of it going bad later? I can imagine a watch breaking down, or a car (and I did purchase Applecare for the iMac) but does RAM really deteriorate with time? --- Daniel Kerr MacWizardry Phone: 0414 795 960 Email: daniel @ macwizardry . com . au Web: http://www.macwizardry.com.au **For everything Macintosh** -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml Guidelines - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml Unsubscribe - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
speech and window weirdness
Thanks to Ronni, David Moyle and Daniel for your help with my prob a few day ago. The main issue not being able to restart or shutdown from Apple menu. I finally got it sorted. In the end I did a full rebootable backup and erased the hard drive and reinstalled Leopard. Its a cleaner, faster MacBook pro now. All's well that ends well. I hope everyone enjoys the Macworld Expo keynote this morning. Here in Melbourne its starts at 4am - to stay up or wake up? That is the question!

Turnaround time on iMac repairs?
Hi... Anyone been waiting a while for their flat panel iMac to be repaired? The inlaws have been told there's no parts available (vertical lines on the screen), so it may be 'a while'...

Re: Saving Keynote to disk???
Is it just me, or is the Australian Apple store advertising the new Apple TV as being able to download movies and TV shows? When you go into the details though, it just says music and free podcasts.

Mighty Mouse scroll fix
Yesterday my cordless Mighty Mouse stopped scrolling upwards. Down, left and right was fine. Some people have reported similar problems in the past but their fixes seemed to be total replacement of the device or interior exploration with makeshift tools. Uh oh! I found a suggestion on Apple's website which suggested wiping the small ball with a damp cloth. I'd already discovered a dry cloth doesn't work. Guess what, the fix was immediate. Just thought I'd pass this simple cure on, in case others fear the worst at some time.

Re: Mighty Mouse scroll fix
Hi Paul, The problem with our mighty mice came once water was no longer capable of cleaning the build-up. This eventually led to detergent then solvents inc alcohol. I believe the cleaning encourages corrosion in the components which inevitably went haywire. And I *mean* haywire :-) We are currently on our 4th 'Mighty' mouse. Our current one came with our iMac, I will never go out and deliberately buy one again. We have given it to our iBook for light duties. My hope is that there have been improvements in the design.
