First weirdnesses

okay, all day today, the battery icon on my menu bar has been followed by (Calculating...) and some but not all supposedly black text is actually showing up sort of multicolored on the screen. I used Software Update yesterday and had it install what was recommended--did I open Pandora's Box?

dumping keychain?

I have OS 9.2 on my Wallstreet. Can I get rid of the keychain foolishness by simply tossing everything in my sys folder that says "keychain"? I don't need it. Thanks in advance. -- G-Books is sponsored by and... Small Dog Electronicshttp://www.smalldog.com | Refurbis

Re: PowerBook of the future?

Now this is something that is pretty cool. Went to the website and read some and watched the videos, very impressive. Not sure on how the cost of it compares to more conventional metals but I agree that this could be the next step for Apple to once again get out of the starting block ahead

Re: Ibook video connectivity

I have a 17" apple Multiscan monitor with the apple-style two-row plug, that I'd love to hook up to my ibook, but I'm not sure it's possible. The little video out cable that came with the ibook connects to a VGA monitor--is there an adapter I could use to switch it to apple two-row? Has anyb

PowerBook of the future?

Hi all. A while ago, I posed a question about Apple's next generation of laptop design. The titanium of the TiBook is nostalgic already and the choice of aluminum for the current design had me wondering what might be next, since polycarbonate seems to be falling to the wayside. I just came acro

FYI: Hard Drive crash, 17" Al Book

This is not a rant or complaint, but rather a point of information for anyone that might be keeping track. My 14 month old 17" Aluminum PowerBook had a Hard Drive crash. Luckily? I purchased AppleCare. The procedure is basically direct replacement of the HD. There is no option to upgrade my 60 G

Re: Can System profiler be wrong?

:) I bought an ibook rather than a desktop so I wouldn't be tempted to muck with it's innards. (I have this tendency to have great ideas, but I suck on the follow through, so I already have a house-full of computer bits I need to get rid of.) I'm planning on NOT learning how to get into this

Battery Query.

Hello All, I'm using my 17" PB 3/4 of the time as a desktop machine connected to the power adaptor. I read somewhere that it would prolong battery life if you removed the battery when connected to the adaptor. The battery would not be continuously charged. Any advice? TIA, greetings, Andre --
