Clear plastic self stick feet are great replacements for the original
black rubber feet that peel off and get lost so easily. Think 3M
makes them. Available at hardware stores. Bouncy like rubber and they

charging the full retail price ($129) to get the 10.2 update?

Well, the greatest performance boost from Jag comes from Quartz Extreme,
which means you'll need 32mb or better VRAM and a modern OGL chipset to

I'm not discounting it- but to say it is the biggest performance boost is
really pushing it. It is a big deal- but it really only helps with

Generally to run an ISP from a residence you're going to need to install a
