SO-DIMM in the machine.
Thinking about upgrading to 1.25 Gig & giving my son the 512 MB SO-DIMM

My DVD drive is kinda noisy on my powerbook.  Is it possible to move a
regular rented or bought movie off the original DVD disc, over to an

support CD-RW, but the form-factor is wrong in those.  Does ...

My iBook G3 Snow (800MHz) is doing the craziest thing:
The Mac will boot up, run like a champ for a short period of time and
then EVERYTHING except mouse movement stops working.. Can't click
anything, but I can move the arrow around the screen.. Then a short

I have a 12 inch PowerBook and something seems to have gotten under my
delete key.  First it was under my f12 key (it would not go down). I
managed to get it out from there by flipping the computer upside down
and pressing the key, only to have it move under my delete key, where

A friend is giving me her Bronze Powerbook, and I want to be able to
use it on the wi-fi here at home and on the road.
It's running 9.2.2 -- will the Airport drivers work with a Linksys
WPC11  "B" card?  My router at home is Linksys -- I'm about to go on

Is there a way?
Thanks,

Hi,  I'm sure many people already know...MacMall isn't the deal it
seems.  Rebates are a scam...they don't actually include rebate coupons
with your order..and by the time you figure it out...the dealine for
the rebates has passed.

Today I had the opportunity to the same set of pictures with some dozen
digital cameras of varying makes and sophistication. What I found interesting
is that the on-screen images from these cameras varied significantly in terms
of how the colors of common objects appeared on ...

Is the 128 MB VRAM upgrade worth the $90 over the standard ATI Radeon
9600 64 MB video card config on the PowerBook G4 15" 1.67 GHz
SuperDrive?  Other than gaming or video editing, when in the course of
normal use could one be shortchanged by 64 MB?  In such an instance, is
