    My new Dell Hackbook

    For what I saved i'm happy to drop slightly from the spec of a real MacBook. It's better specced than the MacBook Air and that's silly money. The setup wasn't fun but anyone with a knowledge of Terminal will have no problems at all. There are not many laptops to choose from if you want Leopard...

    My new Dell Hackbook

    Buy the laptop yourself from the Dell Outlet Store and install using the instructions found at the link above. AFAIK the ethernet port is not currently supported but I use wifi so that's not a problem. Other than that every main component works inc webcam and the inbuilt volume controls.

    My new Dell Hackbook

    I do already own Leopard so I didn't steal from Apple but I did have to use a modified version. The instructions were fairly easy to follow but I did have one or two complications. I now have a dual boot between Vista and Leopard. I chose the Inspiron 1525 because it shares many components from...

    My new Dell Hackbook

    My Dell Inspiron arrived yesterday from the Outlet Store. If it was ever used by a previous owner then I'd never know, it's in immaculate condition. Cost me £390 delivered, a saving of £200 on a like for like spec at Dell's main online store. Inspiron 1525 CORE 2 DUO T5750 2.00GHz DVD+/-RW Hard...

    If I'm reading this correctly then it looks like WMV-HD files will playback with the PH. http://www.avforums.com/forums/streamers-network-media-players/644251-popcornhour-networked-media-tank-thread-94.html#post7507353

    Popcorn hour

    I never got around to buying one so not sure if it can support anything other than what is listed. They claim it can be updated for new codec support easily enough though so it may be added eventually.

    Popcorn hour

    They can be bought for £200 in the UK but there is usually a short waiting list. Most people I know who have ordered one from America have paid no more than £160 delivered and then another £30 or less import tax for the version minus a hdd. The A110 is the latest model. In stock here with 500gb...

    Best iPod Headphones for ~£20-30?

    Beware of the large number of fakes sold on eBay. £17 delivered from Amazon is a good price.

    itouch remote app

    That's all I had to do. Display the remote code on the iPhone and then select it on iTunes. Obviously both have to be connected to the same wifi network.

    Itunes help on imac !!!!!

    Have you been using a dual screen setup with your iMac? Some advice if not from another forum: What happens if you go into ~/Library/Preferences and delete the .plist file associated with that app? This should do it, I just came in here to mention it. I've tried this with other apps when this...

    Apple Macbook update tomo?

    The Apple TV pricing dropped earlier this year in American but didn't change at all here. Thankfully I bought one from the refurb store and saved £80 :) We do get ripped off here.

    Apple Macbook update tomo?

    No but it is £650 cheaper :D I am tempted by the £949 MacBook but I must resist.

    Apple Macbook update tomo?

    I reckon I'll buy a Dell Mini 9 instead and install Leopard onto it :) £299, small and runs great.

    Apple Macbook update tomo?

    I cannot understand the price rise at all, £619 would have made sense to me. £950 is definitely silly money for a laptop.

    Hmmmmm it has a similar upsetting quality for me too. I'll not be buying one now.

    Apple Macbook update tomo?

    When they announce that "The old low-end $1099 MacBook will remain in Apple's product line, add a SuperDrive, and fall to $999" you expect the price to drop in the UK and not rise by £20. I'd expected a drop to £650 or £600 for the basic MacBook. I can see me spending the money on a good Windows...

    Bloody rip off, the White MacBook costs £20 more than it did before, so much for $100 less.

    I may jailbreak my iPhone 3G but has the reliability of jailbroken phones improved? When I did the same on my 2G iPhone it crashed often.

    I hope the current reports on MacRumors prove to be wrong or I'll not be overly thrilled. http://www.macrumors.com/2008/10/14/more-apple-notebook-details-clickable-glass-trackpad-gpus-pricing/
