My new 13 MBP just came in the mail today. I'm typing this on it... it is sublime :) That x86 on a PCI card reminded me of the old Apple DOS Compatibility card that was available for early Power PCs? http://www.mug.jhmi.edu/mirrors/infoalley/0496/25/pc.html I actually have one of those in a

Several things to remember about Monolingual: 1. Make sure NOT to remove all the languages, leave at least one (hence the name Monolingual!) 2. Ditto for keyboard layouts and architectures 3. You might consider leaving the Klingon language installed, it's not wise to p*ss them off! On Jun 11,

There is another program out there called 'delocalizer' that not only removes the languages, but also the regional/country settings that go with them. It seems to get a bit more of the stuff most of us do not need than what monolingual does. By default, it doesn't remove 'American English' or

Lightening Season

We've entered lightening season and I have begun unplugging my systems as storms approach. I have concerns for my G4s: Yikes!, QS 2002 Dual 1GHz, and soon to be had DA Dual 533. Does this place a drain on the PRAM batteries? I believe someone contributed awhile back, that when the psu
