I waste my time arguing with PC users on why I don't waste my time with PCs.
LOL. Isn't that the truth! :D

Went into an apple store and asked a guy working there if he knew anything about G4 ibooks coming out. His response was a VERY official "No. We don't know anything about that. I can't tell you anything about that."
When I pressed a little further, he basically said, "I can tell you I don't know anything or I can lose my job. What would you do?"
Sounds like something's coming soon to me. This RAM sale definitely makes it look probable as well. I'm dying to buy an ibook, but have heard the G3s aren't so good with OS X. That, plus an upgrade seemingly soon - I'm waiting. Hurry up, Apple.

Who was yzdef?
I liked him, then he got banned... then I asked a mod who said he would look into it... and he never die...
*WINK*
*WINK*
Okay so the 4 person vote is
Move: 3
Nothing to Talk about: 1
Leave it here: 0
(Stelliform never gave an view did he?
He just gave himself a complement... ;) )
edit: See Below.
So... unless there is a surge in the 'Leave it here' Votes, I see Move the current victor.
All we need is a Mod or Someone to give Mod powers and we are all set.

6 months is not unreasonable - that would make it March. But my guess is you'll see an upgrade sooner than that.

Waxing nostalgic over the old days is not necessarily a good thing. Rampant flame wars and such didn't really make the forums all that fun - even though there was plenty of other things going on.
For me the best times at MR were in April - July or so.

What I for one hold against Real is what it did to my OS 8 and OS 9 systems. Taking over filetypes that ALREADY were usable--like wavs and even text files!--and then trying to open them, making them LESS usable than before. In fact, it took over filetypes it could NOT open, making those files temporarily useless. And trying to reverse the whole mess was a huge labor.
Now, OS X apparently does not allow Real to perform such nonsense. But I just saw what Real did to a friend's OS 9 machine last week, and am reminded yet again of how I was burned.

While on the subject of non-VPC x86 emulators...
http://www.lismoresystems.com/
This company has had an x86 emulator for a while now (for pre-OS X systems) called Blue Label Power Emulator. Their new Guest PC app is supposed to be a newer version built for OS X.
I tried BLPE on OS 9 a long time ago, so I don't remember much about it. I'm not sure if I even got it to work.

I have a dual processor 867.
I opened up Terminal and typed in "machine" then return.
It output the following line "ppc7450".
Doesn't sound like 7455 to me

Of course, there's probably a huge difference in hardware costs, but hey, We're Number 3, We're Number 3, We're Number 3!
Yeah your exactly right, it gets the job done, and it gets it done very well, but macs are expensive enough, im sure just one chip would cost less.

help!
I just got done upgrading my G4 B&W to Tiger (fresh install) and I decided to get this comptuer back folding again. I ran the little single processor install script that is linked in the folding FAQ to get it installed and running.
Now for some reason, every time I open Terminal, it calls the Install script. I deleted the install script, but it still tries to open it every time I open a new terminal window, and I get the following.
Last login: Thu Jun 23 09:57:48 on ttyp1
Welcome to Darwin!
Yosemite:~ USERr$ /Volumes/single/.setup/script.command; exit
-bash: /Volumes/single/.setup/script.command: No such file or directory
logout
[Process completed]
Here is what I attempted to do to resolve my issue, which none have fixed
1. Install and run the script again.
2. Change the default shell from the terminal prefrences.
Does anyone know what file I need to edit to get a normal shell, and to have the system stop trying to call the install script?
Thanks for any help!
I thought my Linux experience would help here, but I am lost!
One of the files that get executed every time you open the terminal is ~/.profile (where '~' is your home directory). You can't see this file normally because it begins with '.', so to see it you have to use "ls -a" instead of just "ls". Open it, and if it has a line that executes the program you don't want, just erase it.

i could very well be a 13 year old instead of the middle aged engineer everyone thinks i am, or i could be the washed out rocker who almost made it but didn't, or i could be spikey
but i suspect from some of the comments i have seen here in the last two years, there are some really young ones on these forums under age 13 judging from what my young nephews brag about concerning the internet

You don't need to be online to Fold. The only time you need to go online is to dl/ul work units. My PB 1.33 runs 24/7 Folding.

I love seeing that video, but every time I watch it I wonder...
� There's a big chuckle/applause as he reaches into his pocket and pulls out a floppy disk. Something that didn't get caught by the camera? Something about the new small 3.5" diskette? Steve reaching into the wrong pocket at first or something?
� Huge surge of applause just as the large MACINTOSH letters begin scrolling across the screen to begin the show. Coincided with the MIDI of "Chariots of Fire" dropping into that first deep bass note. Is it just because the show is beginning, or is it a more dramatic 1st-time accomplishment to see a computer that can display a font at that point size and scroll it across the screen like that? Surely not in response to the music alone?!
� I had that text-to-speech app, running under System 4. Eons before MacinTalk & the rest of modern text-to-speech. What was the name of that silly little app?
� Boy, that audience sure did love the looks of that chess game! What is it with chess games that impress Mac users so much? (The 3D Chess game in OS X was constantly being featured in screen shots, too).
1. I think it was just the way he presented it, the charisma in which he just took it out of his pocket.
2. Yeah i'm guessing the size of font and the fact it's scrolling smoothly. Possibly the epicness of the soundtrack helped add to the illusion.
3. No idea of the name of the app. Sorry.
4. Intellect, maybe?
Great video though!
Rich.

Kids being kids, of course, they have iPods and they use Google, just not when Dad is watching. Telling kids not to do something is the best way to get them to do it.

Agreed. I don't know what it is, but when your told by your parents to do something, you don't want to even if it makes all the sense in the world. And if they tell you to refrain from anything, you want it even more. Makes no logical sense.

If not, then either keeping with the current solution (i.e., loading and editing DV on the PowerBook and later transfering via GBit ethernet to a PowerMac for burning) or moving to an external bundled DVD-R that was supported under iMovie would seem to be the practical route for now.

For people such as myself, having a PowerBook with a built in Superdrive would be amazing!! Currently my PowerBook G4 acts as a complete desktop replacement system, so alot of the time it spends it time plugged in......
The idea behind having a built in DVD burning would mean that you wouldn't have to worry about finding someone or somewhere with a PowerMac to burn a DVD, you could do it directly off the PowerBook..... indeed it's impossible that you could burn a full DVD off a current battery without it going flat..... But when you're a freelancer like me, going from clients offices to clients offices, being able to directly burn a DVD without having to pester them for a DVD burner would be much more professional and much less time consuming.......
What's so wrong with having it as an option anyway??

the -O2 and -funroll-all-loops are optimisation flags. The -o mr2 says to create an output file called mr2. GCC will work out this isn't an object file and manage the linking for you. The mr2.c on the end specifies the input file.
