Re: Digital camera files

If you haven't already got it, download GraphicConverter. With each image that you view, you can see the JPEG compression ratio (in "picture>show information") which will probably show different settings for the different images that you have seen. The level of compression varies depending on wha

Hugely appreciated!! Thanks. I will get it happening as soon as I get back to WA. I'm currently in Cairns. Just a note for anyone thinking about getting one of the Apple LCD Screens. They are excellent. My 17" looks fantastic and has exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended. Thanks again fo

Re: OT: And you think that you paid too much?

This lady's Performa now has 32 meg instead of the original 16. That's right, she's paid $460 for a 16 meg, 72 pin SIMM. It's one of the most common memory chips ever made, and was used in both Macs and PCs in the mid 90s. That same SIMM retails from Apple for $38.50, and takes about 10 secon

OT: And you think that you paid too much?

Hiya all, Totally off topic, but this one just blows me away... figured I'd pass it around. I was just talking on the phone with a lady up north. She recently took her Performa 5260 to the local PC shop to get some more RAM put in. Being a PC person, the shop owner didn't know off hand exactly

I'd like to add Computer Trade Centre to the list of good service places. I recently had to have the hard disk in my iMac 350 replaced for the second time. Apparently, the Philips chip which controls the motor is faulty and this is the second HD I've had in not quite 2 years of ownership. Tony at C

Re: Digital camera files

Hi Kevin, I am using a Sony which can produce 3.3 megapixels, and saved in Jpeg they are around 800k. It can produce smaller 640x480 pixel photo's file size about 63k. But the file size will be dependent on the amount of information your photgraph holds. You can reduce the file size by reducing

I have a Jenoptik digital camera of 1.3 megapixels. When I save files through photoshop as jpegs they end up around 600-800k. A friend has a Mavica which creates files of around 5-10kb. Is the Sony Mavica able to compress better? Should I save as something else rather than Jpegs? JPEGs are pret

eMac - does it have L2 cache

Can some-one point me in the direction of a web page that sets out the specifications for the eMac (including software, if any)? I can't find any page that gives detail about bus speed, L 2 cache, software. Thanks, Michael Hawkins.
