Laptop HD Price and Compatability	31 Jan 2004 08:30 GMT	1
Ok, decided to upgrade the hard drive in my 800MHz late '02 iBook. Looked around on all the PC buying sites and found a Hitachi 60GB notebook HD (with an 8 MB cache) for about $300 (http://www.umart.com.au/ phtml/products_list.phtml?id=10&id2=15&&bid=2&sid=7104). Found nothing
Default App when CF Inserted.	31 Jan 2004 04:56 GMT	1
I have a quicksilver G4/800 running panther. When I insert a compact flash card from a digicam, iPhoto automaticly starts up. How do I make another app start up instead? I think I'd rather startup the Canon browser, or Graphic Converter, since iPhoto

I am having problems installing Jaguar on my beige G3/300 desktop (192Mb RAM, 4Gb HD). Previously I have had been able to install it in the G3/266 Tower (768Mb/120Gb) and the G3/266 PowerBook(512Mb/60Gb).
A few more questions	29 Jan 2004 20:26 GMT	1
Thanks for your advice in the other thread, I just have a few more questions. Is the 200Mhz difference between the iBook and eMac going to make a huge difference in everyday use? Obviously it would affect video

New Mac	29 Jan 2004 02:39 GMT	7
Hi. I've been thinking about getting a new computer, and I'd love a new Mac. I'm a little out of touch, since my last Apple computer was a Performa 6400. (And before anyone goes looking at my post headers, yes I'm using a Windows box right now. I'm mostly platforum neutral)

I've got a G3 Indigo iMac which is beautiful, but I really need one with inbuilt FireWire. Does anyone have a FireWire iMac that they're looking to sell? Ideally it will have CD-RW and be at least 500mhz. I'm in Canberra, but will consider paying freight if I can find the right

I want to add a Pioneer 104 and 120Gb drive to my eMac. While I've built PCs from scratch, I would rather just hand the eMac over and get someone to do it, saving my sanity. Does anyone have an idea on where I could take the eMac in Brisbane to have
Quadra 630s in Australia	26 Jan 2004 01:42 GMT	11
Quick question for those of us who can remember back to when Quadra 630s/LC 630s were released in Australia. Did we ever actually -get- a Quadra 630 here? All the LCs I've seen have full 68040s in them, and I can't remember seeing a Quadra labelled version on eBay Australia, which ...
Why don't laptops have region free drives?	25 Jan 2004 10:41 GMT	6
