Anyone know of a screensaver that will count down the days, hours and

screensaver.

My 'resurrected' disk lasted less than two days then.
This time I'm trying to start up in verbose mode. It gets as far as
reporting IOBlueToothPCIController, then dies.
I get the following message:

I have a very useful little utility called fseventer which builds a
graphical tree on the fly showing which files are being accessed at any
given time. It's a lot easier to interpret than the output from lsof,
that's for sure. See:

It doesn't appear to be possible but someone will have a workaround I'm
sure. I want to print from my iBook connected wirelessly to Airport

I asked here about getting my new G5 (10.4.7) to share my old G4's
(10.3.9)  Webshuttle connection to the internet, with the two Macs

As per the title, seems to have been down for a while. Is there any way
to get hold of the DarwinPorts installer? Google suggests a few
locations, but I'm uncertain as to which are official and which aren't.
I'm aiming to put subversion and apache2 on the machine, but this time

...and presumably Logic itself as well. Says that it's now been
optimised for increased performance on quads, be they Mac Pros or G5.
I wonder how they've done that then? I'd have thought the way to do

Quick question. I am working on JavaHelp files for a client and I have
been looking for a Mac client. I am trying to install JHelpBuilder and
it is choking on the location of the JDK. I am using what I thought to

I was helping a friend who wanted to digitise his collection of ancient
vinyl using his old iMac.  We got his turntable connected up to his
iMac, and recorded an album using Audacity.  Did a bit of noise
