Ahh. Leopard would be ok then, I'm still using a G4 powerbook (1.5Ghz) with leopard as my main machine here at home!

You have the internets though. What speed is the CPU in it as leopard won't install on anything lower than 800Mhz. I can't remember now what speed quicksilvers went up to, but I don't think it was that high, mine was a 733. The case opening mechanism on them is awesome though.

It's real, see here: http://www.apple.com/uk/itunes/ Link on the right hand side to that site.

I'd put tiger on a G4 quicksilver, tiger is far more suited for a machine of that age. Wish I still had my old G4 quicksilver.

It's just history repeating itself. Netscape open sourced and became mozilla, the mozilla foundation realised that the code was crap so started again from fresh, only thing is, the code they wrote to replace the crap code was itself, well, crap. Webkit based browsers are the future.

connect is utterly useless between 6pm and midnight, youtube, iplayer and downloading just don't work properly because of the shaping. The LLU packages are fine though as I previously had one of these.

search for "jquery slideshow", you'll find loads.

Anybody know if the "bolt ons" are fixed with this iPhone simplicity tariff? It looks like a good deal to me, only thing is the lack of unlimited texts.

FWIW the recovery discs don't have images on them, only retail discs have that on. As you've pointed out, the number on the disc will indicate what it is.

I'm guessing that firefox isn' t based on NSTextView and therefore doesn't support the rather useful "Cmd+Ctrl+D" sequence when you're hovering over a word on the webpage. I bloody love that OS X feature.

The webkit engine rocks, hard. Haven't used firefox in years, safari is where it's at.

Macs hold their price incredibly well, you'd struggle to get a decent (4 year old) G4 for that.

Extra RPM = more speed but extra heat and extra power consumption. Unless you're a geek who spends half their time benchmarking their computer pointlessly I'd say don't bother unless you have specific reasons for a faster drive because of the extra issues it'll bring.

We've been replacing the drives in some of our macs here at work with these: http://www.businessdirect.bt.com/products/hitachi-travelstar-5k500-b-500gb-5400rpm-s300-8mb-9-5mm-5HJB.html No problems so far.

Essentially, yes. There are qemu ports for windows so you may be able to find an up to date one somewhere. qemu will also quite happily run inside a virtual machine, so you can install ubuntu in vmware player (generate a virtual machine online) and then run qemu in that, windows in linux...

You'll be needing emulation not virtualisation then. I use qemu under linux to do this, not sure about gui's as I just use it direct from the terminal.

I didn't say there wasn't, I was tickled by the posters comments (and links) when he clearly hadn't even read what the products actually did. Kernel panics give a greyed out screen saying that something bad has happened, I've not seen one in years, probably puma was the last time I saw one and...

Yes, I think you should have taken a quick check on those products you mentioned. Here's the sophos information about the mac product: http://www.sophos.com/products/enterprise/endpoint/security-and-control/mac/ Lol, so the whole point of sophos for Mac is to stop you passing on files to...

Good good, any word on why it failed first time around?

It's in: Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor

Dunno, I suppose you could ring the helpdesk monkeys and see if they know why it failed, but it's more than likely you'll get a "we don't even unlock them" response.

There's loads of people on the o2 forum who've had the "sorry, we can't unlock your phone" text, I expected it as I'm on my 3rd one but it all went through ok.

Mines just been unlocked. :D

We use parallels and VMware at work, VMware has one killer feature which I absolutely cannot live without...linked clones. Although fusion doesn't let you create them within the GUI (which Workstation does), it does fully support them. Install windows once and create virtual machines from a...

Seriously, what's the point in MS not allowing this to be completely disabled should you want to? (i.e kiosk style applications) They can still keep up the thin veneer of "security" by keeping ctrl+alt+del un-hookable in user mode. I had to resort to writing a driver to filter out the SAS...

Submitted mine a few days ago, not heard anything back yet though, I guess it'll be right on 14 days that they do it.

lol. There most certainly isn't. To paraphrase a comment I read about an uber expensive cable for a digital bus....

It's nothing to do with locking down, Apple deprecated the firewire charging interface for iPod years ago, they've been telling accessory makers not to charge devices using the firewire pins on the dock connector as they would be removing support for it in future devices, when the 3G came about...

Int 21 returns the scan code in register AL. There is no default "pop" location on 80x86, it's not an accumulator style instruction set, you need to explicitly say where you want to pop the value to. PUSH 20 POP AX would put the value 20 into AX via the stack. And your final...

I wonder how complete googles own mapping data is now? They also allow "community edits" to add to their mapping data, http://www.google.com/mapmaker Although it's a pity that they haven't just contributed their data to openstreetmap.
