I have a Lombard PowerBook and I can't play DVDs on OS

decoders.
Apple suggest to boot on OS 9 (or OS 8.6) for DVD
Playback.

An exaggeration IMHO.
10.3 is a BIG improvement over 10.2.

Subject: ot: new scanner and os 9 after X
Date: Sat, 17 Jul 2004 03:20:20 -0400
hi to all:
i am in the market for a new scanner. i would like a compact one, but
quality goes before size. i use os 10.3.4
I have an hp flatbed with an adaptor for negatives.
It works OK for everything except that I cannot get an OCR
program to drive the sheet feeder--they all say they will but they
dont'.
Anyway, if you want to do photos, make sure you have a
scanner attachment for your negatives.

I just purchased a ibook 300mhz from a yard sale. It seemed to be in
perfect shape in the box with all cords and packing. However the battery
does not seem to be working. I can get it to work plugging in the ac
