Re: Help needed with proposed airport network

This is one way to do it, but prehaps not the correct way. As you want to use the 7600 as you router, you will need a software router (IP Net Router) to make that work. You might have to add another Ethernet card to the 7600 unless you are using a modem to connect to the Internet. A better way t

Identifying a Powerbook

A friend's PowerBook HD died and as he is upgrading to iMac I may "inherit" it. He says it is a G3 but doesn't know more. Numbers on the back read: 14.1TFT/233MHz-512K/32MB/2GB HD/4MB video/CD/Modem. I can make sense of everything but the 14.1TFT. Does this number ID the PowerBook? Thanks. Cliff --

Re: Identifying a Powerbook

I can make sense of everything but the 14.1TFT. 14.1-inch Thick-Film Transistor display - ie an active-matrix LCD. Sounds like a Wallstreet, but I'm a PB1400 person so don't take my word for it. I'm sure someone will be along in a moment... -- PowerBooks is sponsored by an

Re: Identifying a Powerbook

Hey, Cliff! 14.1 is the screen size (14.1 inch diagonal) - TFT is 'Thin Film Transistor': an active matrix display LCD panel. HTH! Winfidel From: Cliff Rediger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: "PowerBooks" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PowerBooks" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Identifying a Powerbook Date

14.1TFT is the screen size. This is a 14.1" screen PowerBook Wallstreet II (with cache). TFT means active-matrix. It's the higher quality of the two types of screens (the other being passive matrix). On Dec 1, 2004, at 9:33 AM, Cliff Rediger wrote: A friend's PowerBook HD died and as he is up

broken TiBook, Lombard, & iBook plugs

Several months ago, some of you may recall, one of the two overgrown galoots, euphemistically called Œsons¹, who hibernate in my home tripped and fell on my desk¹s keyboard tray, knocking the tray with my TiBook to the floor and irreparably shattering the plug that goes into the back of the compute

general PowerBook question: angle of repose

When I use my PowerBooks (a Wallstreet, a Duo 280c, and a Duo 270c) I keep them flat, or - when actually used on a lap, as a true laptop - pretty nearly flat, horizontal But now I'm thinking of a use for one of them, by the piano, in which the screen would be kept vertical but the keyboard bas
