Dead 14 iBook? Any ideas?

Hi all, I've been presented with a challenge that I can't do a thing with... One of my colleagues has presented me with his 14 iBook (700 MHz G3). There's just no power. I've tried taking the battery out for a few days to reset the power manager, but I don't know what else to do... Any

Hi all, Laurent has an excellent point... using iMovie with a digital picture in OS 9 (and in OS X for that matter) will produce 5 second clips of the still. It's about 149 frames too much stuff, but you can split the clip and delete the extra 4:29 (sec:frames) to get a single frame. Of

Re: VHSDVD and TV tuner

Hi all, I use a Formac Studio TVR for analog to digital conversion. Only $299 and it's *totally* seamless when converting from just about any analog source to iMovie. I agree with Jeff that a DV cam works great for this (I have a Sony 730 digital-8 deck,) but for plug-it-in-and-it-works

Re: All enclosures created equal?

Hi Markemmanuel, I have had excellent luck with enclosures from Granite Digital http://www.granitedigital.com I currently use three of their older cases and they have worked perfectly for over 2 years. They come with some seriously rocking firewire cables as well. On top of all of this,

Re: Mac portable keyboard ? [OT?]

Hi, If I remember correctly, the keyboard and trackball are adb devices, but they use a different internal plug. You might check out some of the technical references online to see how they're wired. Interesting concept for the machine. You can get some serious rechargeable batteries (check
