The disk in a G3 Mac has died.  Temporarily I have installed a 20GB
replacement (for the original 12GB drive) and installed OS8.5 from the
original CD.  This 20Gb drive is 2nd hand and it's obviously not a good idea

Does anyone here run a blog and what do you use? Is it a straightforward
choice between online services and local software/hosting, and what's

For some time I've used an old Wintel machine as a file server to store
music etc.  As part of a recent house move, my network was rebuilt and,

at PC world today for my iTunes library - they look OK for £60/£70. These
seem like a reasonable buy? They should be bus-powered, shouldn't they?

Do most people want to go to the Expo on Friday 26th Oct. Friday has so

I'm looking to book tickets and that for the Expo, and wondering what
sort of plans people have for getting home. It looks like my last
available journey from Kensington Olympia is 9:45pm, the last train from
Paddington is 10:15pm and the first train the next morning is around
