Somebody has sent Anne a .ics file. I have iCal on the iG5, presumably
from the original installation, although I have never used it- I use
Palm Desktop which suits us both. iCal opens that .ics file fine.
Anne doesn't have iCal on her TiBook, which has 10.2.8. Is there

A friend has a Mac Book.  As far as I can see there is no forward

OK, so. The lease on my dual G5 is up and it would cost me £365'ish to
keep the machine now. I've beefed up the initial spec, but the one as

I swear I have no idea why, but for some weird reason I started to watch
a Bill Gates webcast. Five minutes later, I woke up to find I'd only

I was on the phone to Apple Marketing UK today to ask for 1-2 posters
for a new mac area in school. I was told "We don't have any posters at
present"
Does anyone know where I would get a new ipod or mac posters ?

I have 10.3.9 running on my old Lombard 400MHz + 512Mb.  It's OK if a
bit sluggish opening files/apps etc.  It only gets used for Web
browsing, eMail, News - a bit of iTunes/iPhoto and MS Office apps.

We're on a birthday roll, people! Didn't we once try to work out why
there was such a big cluster around this time?
Anyway, today is Phil Taylor's birthday. He hasn't posted since December

I have somehow managed to throw out all my Documents from my Documents
folder, all I have left is aliases. When I click on the alias it says
