Re: updates for OS X 10.2

You have two options: one, email me your address, or two, go to either an Apple Store or a CompUSA and get an update disc. Does anyone possess or know of the existence of a CD of updates for OS X 10.2 that I could buy? My problem is an inordinately slow downloading setup. Thanks much. Victor

shutting down PB and heat

Maybe I'm too much of a worry wart, but my Lombard frequently seems so hot on the bottom that I think I must shut it down. I sometimes hear what sounds like a fan come on. When I have it on my desk, I raise the rear end with a little saucer. Am I being silly? Willi (actually, on occasion, more

upgrading jaguar to panther on pismo (with no 10.2 discs)

Hi, am new to the list but have enjoyed reading the advice and tips that you guys share. I have a 400mhz Pismo that I bought second hand with a fresh copy of Jaguar installed on it but no discs so took it as my opportunity to dive into the world of OSX which is just fantastic. Now that Panther
