Subject: External speakers for G3 PowerBook
From: Michael Hawkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I've recently discovered iTunes and right now I'm listening to a radio
described by Apple as "Drink or Die - Barstool Blues"
My computer is a G3 PowerBook 400 (Firewire), 640 meg ram, OS 102.3. The
sound from the internal speakers isn't too bad, but are external speakers
available? Both the USB ports are in use. Would I need to buy a USB hub?
Thanks,
Michael Hawkins.
Mike,
Go for a product like the TDK. The system plugs into the headphone
jack left of the ESC key. I got a system from Hardly Normals at
$149. Brilliant sound. You have the sub woofer on the floor and the
two small towers L and R of screen. Its powered from the mains. Now
all you need is a darkened room, full screen visuals and a little
tinkering with iTunes set up and you're set. I heard from a person
(who thinks MACs are the lowest form of computer life) that iTunes is
vastly superior on the MAC than the Windoze version.
