    Bag/Sleeve for Macbook Pro

    booq bags are awesome. I got mine quite a while ago, so I don't think they sell the exact model anymore. But I would think their newer bags are even better.

    "Access Denied" when installing printer driver

    Alright, so I have an issue with my XP Pro SP2 box when trying to install a printer driver. Every time I try to install a printer, during the last step while copying files, I get an "Access Denied" error box and can't finish adding the printer. I'm trying to hook up to my network printer...

    6G iPod?

    Well that picture is just some !!!!!! art, but you're right. I don't think they'd make a phone with a chrome back. Maybe brushed aluminum? That'd look pretty good... I can't wait for the widescreen ipod though...all my waiting will be worth it! Or at least it better...

    Possibly getting MacBook Pro..

    go for it. I love my MBP, and run both bootcamp and parallels totally stable. I've used mine in college and it totally stands up to the challenge.

    THE A8N32 Build database

    Well, my rig is up and running great. One problem however...whenever I try to sync my ipod connected through the firewire port on my Audigy 2ZS, I get a machine error and have to restart. Probably not a good thing. It doesn't happen all the time, but it's the only thing wrong with my build...

    looking to get a used Mac have a few questions

    Glad to hear you're thinking of trying a mac out. You do know that you can buy a new mac mini for $500 (less if you're a student) right? You'd get the latest version of OSX, which is awesome. As long as you have a monitor, keyboard and mouse, and you don't care if it's a desktop, I'd say go...

    New powerbooks on the horizon?

    ...yeaaaah, I'm pretty sure I have some idea of what I'm talking about. Are the current powerbooks not as good as they could be? Yes. Does that mean that someone who NEEDS one NOW shouldn't get one? No. I'm still using a 4 year old powerbook and it's running great. We have no idea when the...

    New powerbooks on the horizon?

    Yeah, and the 12" wasn't refreshed the last time around so it doesn't have the better screen or DDR2 RAM. The advantage of having the IBM chip will be that you won't have to run programs through rosetta (intel emulator) if they haven't been converted yet. All things to consider...

    Should I pay 50 dollars for Office or for iWork?

    I have both, and use them equally. If you want, just get iWork, and use openoffice for spreadsheet stuff. Or don't buy anything and just use openoffice. Free is good.

    what to do, what to buy...

    Alright, so here's my situation: I currently own a PC desktop that doesn't work anymore, but I think some parts are still salvageable. I also own a 4 year old Powerbook that I'm using right now. The powerbook is really showing it's age when it comes to speed (800MHz can only do so much...) so...

    I just wish they wouldn't keep us in suspense! I know they're trying to keep stuff from getting to their competitors before the products are released, but it is frustrating. All these rumors aren't helping either...

    How Excited Are You About The Intel Macs?

    I'm very excited for this change. forget not buying another apple, try not buying another PC! I really need a new laptop, but it looks like Apple has one more G4 powerbook up their sleeve (I hope..). Otherwise it's gonna be a long wait as I'm not sure if I want a Rev.A MacIntel...
