Hi All!
I am sorry for the OT post, but I am sure there is a large majority of Star
Wars fans on this list!
Anyway, the Star Wars trilogy (IV, V, VI) are finally coming to DVD. 4
DVDs, with an extra dvd full of docos and other extras.
Due for release at the end of September in the US.

Dear All
I am looking for some advice on installing Panther on my TiPB G4 550. I am
currently using 10.2.8.
When I run the installer it goes through the initial stuff and then tells me
that there is a problem with my disk. Disk utility can't repair it so I
can't install.
Can I use Diskwarrior

Yes. USB is designed for low bandwidth peripherals like keyboards and
mice (despite what Intel's marketing people tell you), Ethernet is
designed for networking.

If you have the US (or UK) power adaptor you can just buy a simple
figure 8 power cable (try Bunnings or Jaycar) and plug that into it.
