A web browser that stores temp files and cache in the main directory of your hard drive "for the sake of speed" is not a good browser. It is a travesty of programming. I for one will not miss it. Let them continue to pimp that junk to the huddled masses while Firefox eats their market share awa

No color quickdraw on the machine. Color support came along with the SE30. Hard to believe that anyone would want one of those machines. Nobody really wanted them when they were new. The Powerbook 100 was so much better in every way. On Jul 19, 2005, at 12:28 PM, Ian Nixon wrote: Mac Portabl

Re: I've seen FOUR Mac viruses.

There were some worms that came out about the time Apple started the Snail/Intel commercials. They just slowed the Macs down using the auto-start feature of Quicktime and were pretty easy to disable and remove. It hit about a dozen of my client's machines and started after unsolicited restarts.
