Always have handy that saviour of DVD drives the straightened paper-
clip. Look for a tiny hole to the right of the button on your drive,
gently push the straight end into the hole, the drive will now open.
You should then be able to quit the application by force quit.

Replace the drive? I had similar problems on my Pismo. I replaced
the drive and have had no problems since.

I'm looking at a superdrive to replace the DVD-ROM in my Lombard, but I
want to replace the battery and get my home setup for wireless, first.
I found that blowing the dust out of the connectors can help a little,

A while back I asked about different ftp clients I could use with my

Don't know if I responded before, but my recommendation would be the free or
donorware Cyberduck, available at the usual sites, Versiontracker, etc.
It has served me very well know for several months.
I don't know if I looked at cyberduck before or not--I'll do so
(again?). In the meantime, FireFTP seems to be working quite well.
Thanks!
Later..Howard

Advice please - I want to save some VHS tape material onto my Pismo

this? I guess I need to hook my VHS recorder to the Pismo, but via

Hi,
yes, the lower RAM card can be replaced. You have to remove the processor
board.
Before you begin, remove
the following:
AC adapter
Expansion bay modules

I think you need a video converter. Some digital video cameras will do
this (if they have RCA in capability). Otherwise, you can order
something like this:

You need either a card called a CAPSURE for your pcmcia slot, or you need
an analogue tgo firewire converter. I have a spare one of the former I
could sell, while many manufacturers sell the latter worldwide...
