So, I got a copy of Leopard and I was planning to install it on my Mini (1.42Ghz G4), but first I was going to back everything up so I could wipe the drive and do a clean install. But, first, I wanted to try MacFUSE and NTFS-3g because both of my external hard drives (that I would backing up...

Yeah, somebody must have grabbed them... :'(

Well, assuming they got them around 10-12 years ago, each system would have been literally tens of thousands (US$) with all the Avid stuff...multiply that out and include all the spares, and you're probably approaching a quarter Mil...maybe even more.

Yeah, you could start your own filmmaking school with these...heck, ten years ago when I started at CalArts, we only had two machines that we're setup with Avid hardware.

Or otherwise a non-profit...because then I could go after this! Actually, I have two relatives who are either teachers or in some part of the school system, but they're a bit of a ways to make claiming it logistical...that and it would be another case of 'how do I move all of this and where do...

I bought an iBook G4 for my daughter around Christmas (as some of you remember) and luckily there was a recall on the battery, so I got a new one from Apple. With it, it lasts a pretty long darn time, and I only have to remind her to plug it back in to charge once every few days.

Yay! I'm back...and please feel free to blame me for the whole ordeal, it really is pretty much my fault. [:I] ]'> That being said, I'm glad we're back, even if in a less than perfect state. Also, I'd like to thank everyone for their patience, I got quite a number of emails and IMs...
