I seem to have lost the ability to translate doc files (said
ability just arrived with 10.1 or 10.1.2).
Not sure if this happened with 10.1.5 upgrade as I don't use it
very often. Anybody else lost it?
More importantly, can we get it back? Or is it something
We have a shared multi-printer HP OfficeJet [it's the cousin nobody
speaks about], which is shared between 3 machines using a USB switch
from Belkin. The only drawback - it's manual. You have to push a
button to switch machines. An inellegant solution but it works.

Stout just started it this year and I really don't know about all of the
other schools in the UW system, but they are firm about having to purchase a
PC. Students that are in the Arts get a Mac instead, but they also get no
choice, even though they already are getting the best laptop for the job.
If you can afford it go with a gig of ram it is a huge
improvement. I got my gig when the price was $75
apeace for the 512s now i think it is down to around
$100 now from near $200 a few months ago. I would not
recommend running OS X with less than 512 megs of ram
or at least a min of 256 or 384.

What book is the best buy

The answer is Yes. Which is best depends on your needs. The TiBook is

Would a G4 upgrade, if there is one, provide a significant performance

If I still have my 66mhz bus in my lombard, will I

How do they get the computer to process at 500mhz?
Speaking of memory...how cheap is too much for memory?
Is it all the same or do some suck less than others?

The major name brands cost more, often twice as much as the off brand.
