I mean -- damn, that's irritating. I want a new PC.
You could buy a Firewire card (assuming that you can find one with six-pin connectors).

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Nah, I just feel robbed that I have a PC with integrated Firewire, yet it's all second class third world connectivity. Or I could just remember to disconnect my iPod when done. Whichever.

A powered Firewire hub is a solution to both charging while the host is asleep and hosts with unpowered Firewire ports.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
The $5 firewire card I got last year must be six pin because I've charged FAQ Girl's iPod though it.
I don't remember the brand -- it was a dealnews deal.

Trust my rage
Just thought I'd share the following - on Friday I ordered via Apple and iPhoto some prints of digital pictures I had taken. They arrived today and look great - as if they had come from a print camera.

FYI: MGM sent a letter to my cable internet company about me torrenting one of their shows, threatening to leverage punitive action against them if they don't sanction me next time I'm caught doing it.

Well, no more torrenting Stargate, that's for sure. I think I want to finish getting Galactica, since I'm almost done, and then I'm good for now. Thank GOD I got Spooks already -- I can wait for the rest of the stuff to air on TV.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
but do you have to tell the browser the path to the Java runtime?
Yes. I think I did so, but couldn't do it precisely as instructed, as it kept telling me there was no such file or path or directory. Perhaps I got the structure mixed up, but I tried various permutations, and did a search to ascertain that the file was where I thought it was. So, if the file was in my Desktop, the command would be ./libkitty/Desktop/blah blah blah cut and pasted from the Java site, right?
