Which one are you???

Nice to put a face to the name! You look nothing like I expected. iMac - which one are you (I'll get my microscope out) and which radio station is that? I'll post my own picture. When Hell freezes over. :b&w:

Airport Extreme cards can connect to ordinary wireless points, can't they? And you don't need any extra software to do it, surely? An iBook I'm using doesn't pick up any wireless spots - the best I've managed is it picked up the computer-to-computer network put out by the Orinoco card in my...

Curious, how could a G4 possibly be slower?

Me too. :'( Curse you, work internet!!

Awesome [8D] To be perfectly frank I'd sooner stick my face in the blender than wear one myself, but awesome nevertheless. Any chance of a Bowler hat version perhaps? Or a beige Panama? Size 7 1/8

6 on the SE/30, 7.5 on the LCII.

I finally received it this week. Strangely, just the fact that I was using an LCII with its impotent little startup chime and one of those 14" trinitrons really took me back. 14 years melted away. And it does run system 6 without needing Wish I Were, but for some reason, same as my SE/30...

Awesome, I was in a print centre yesterday and they had a big copier/printer that had a screen that looked like a Xerox star, with one of those star mice. Looked like a fairly new machine despite that, though. ;D

That would be this: http://www.lulu.com/content/667661 :)

Hah. People are throwing out piles of books on eBay and I’m used to paying 95c for the ‘classics’ in hardback, so paying $30 for a paperback pains my tightwad heart. I will definitely read it at some stage though, even if I have to use my teabags four times instead of the usual three for a...

Hey, I'm still going to read your book, Neil. But because I'm a cheapskate, I'm waiting for it to end up in the bargain bin of abebooks.com. :)

You are trying to play Wagner with a baroque orchestra mate. Of course a 1994 Mac is going to look like rubbish if you put it on a higher-res screen than it was designed for. And run like rubbish if you thrash it with system 9. If you don't get the same peculiar joy from running system 7.5 at...

Mate!! ;D How’s it going? Great to see you, where the bleedin’ heck have you been all this time? Gosh, I’ve got so much to tell you – Terry and I finally made the state croquet finals last year!! We didn’t win, but we’ve both been training non-stop so I think this year might well be the...

You are too polite, Tom. It’s your forum! If it was mine I’d have told him to shove an apricot up his bum then locked the topic.

Always glad to add something. I think my purpose in life is to make dejected outcasts feel normal! :D Did you see what I wrote about the dream you were in? I was actually not taking the Mick about that one, for once... ::)

Thanks! :) I don't think it will work, but I'll give it a try anyway. By the way, welcome to the forum. Have we a fellow Melbournian in our midst?

Any time :) Kiwis and Aussies don’t genuinely hate each other, by the way. Except when we’re in the middle of a test match. If I may return to the previous subject, I found a quote from that very, very great poet and philosopher, Wynyard, which sums up my thoughts on the matter. Wynyard...

Ne’er were truer words spoken, sir. Anyway, it was only English that I desecrated. Had I disgraced the Language of Love then, true Frenchman that I am, I should have had to fight a duel with myself to satisfy honour.

I remember seeing several of those graphite G4 towers at Fox Studios in Sydney in 2000 and thinking what amazingly powerful machines they must have been to be able to generate special effects for the movies. Same machine I now have sitting idly in my room, used as an occasional backup to my...
