Re: Good quality laser printers?
On Wednesday, February 26, 2003, at 09:37 PM, Darren Kam wrote: Both monochrome and colour laser printers would be much appreciated. Also, if anyone has any suggestions on particular brands (ie HP, Epson, Canon, Xerox) please let me know! Thanks, Darren. I've just sold (and installed) an HP 2500L Colour Laser Printer for someone - very impressive machine. Running in a Windows 2000 network, which includes a lonely eMac running MacOS X 10.2.3. The only downside has been the amazingly inept installer for MacOS. It purportedly installs over 400 files, and there are no clues as to where they go. Certainly, Print Center isn't aware of them, nor, for that matter, is Chooser in Classic. So far, an email to HP support has not elicited any response (BTW - if anyone out there has had any experience with getting this stuff to work I'd love to hear from them...). However, it does work very well with Samba networking and Gimp Print. This is not difficult to set up, and is probably necessary anyway if you're in a mixed environment. The printer itself produces excellent results, and is pretty good value at around $2500 RRP. The 2500L is the cheapest. For another $500 you can get the 2500 with an extra paper tray, and the 2500N at around $3700 has an ethernet port thrown in.

Wanted to buy - a machine from the dark side
Hi, A friend of mine had his PC and modem wiped out by lightning the other day, and wants to pick up a second-hand one. Does anyone know of a similar list to this (or the Mac-for-sale list) for PC users? Alternatively, do any of you want to rid yourselves of a working PC lurking around the house? He used his machine mainly for email and needs Windows 98 or 2000, and a modem that works with it. Cheers, Kaye -- Kaye Stott Geoff Prince Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.omninet.net.au/~kg/
OSX Eudora question.
Does anybody know a way of stopping Eudora 5.1.1 for OSX coming to the foreground each time it checks mail? I have disabled the open mailboxes (with new mail) and this stops it from splattering the foreground with open mailboxes which it did even to it's self so that you'd be halfway through typing an e-mail and it would over display the message your composing with the new mail's mailboxes but what ever the application it's self still comes to the foreground as soon as it checks mail -- ~ Mark Secker [EMAIL PROTECTED] 9380 2308 (GSE) 9380 1855 (ECEL) ECEL Computer Support Officer, University of Western Australia.

Doesn't that keep it fresher? Or is that only if you store it at the

Kaye I believe home and contents insurance covers lightning damage to modems and PCs. Hopefully your friend is insured.

Franke When I hook my Fuji Finepix 2400 camera up to my G4 it mounts the SmartMedia card on the desktop as a disk. I can copy files from the SmartMedia card to my hard drive and even delete them directly from the card with no problem. I've also gone the other way to share pictures. All I had to do was make sure the files were named using the same convention the camera used and I could even see the pictures using the controls on the camera. I've transferred pictures to the camera for storage without using the naming convention the camera uses and even though the files can be seen when the card is mounted on the desktop the camera can't see them.
Seagate HD
Hi everyone could someone please enlighten me on the Seagate hard disks described with HDD 120GB SEAGATE 7200RPM 8MB SATA150 specifically the 8mb sata150. Is this an onboard disk cache to improve performance? kind regards and thanks for any support chris [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
Re: Seagate HD
Hi Chris Yes the 8MB is cache and the SATA refers to serial ATA. There is no support for serial ATA on a Mac as yet, we've been looking at a couple of PC PCI cards but I haven't as yet started hunting down any of the Mac rumour sites about Mac support as yet. The word from Apple has been probably.
