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!
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?
So, my laptop only has 256 megs of memory. I'm told more is good. If I want to double it, do I buy another 256 megs, or do I have to buy 512, and swap what I've got out? Is this something I can do myself, or do I have to take it somewhere to get it done? (Laptop in question=12" powerbook)

It depends if you've already got memory in the expansion slot. Apple System Profiler (found in the Utilities folder inside the Applications folder) can tell you that.
If the slot has a 128MB DIMM in it, you'll need to take it out and put in a 512M for 640MB total. If not, you can add a 256M or even better a 512M module.
The slot is under a little panel held on by four 00 phillips head screws. You might not have a 00 phillips head screwdriver, but otherwise the install is easy.

Hey, there's a reason they're called "thumb drives"....
We've mentioned that the little personal USB massager skeeves me, right? Because the fact that USB provides power does not mean that we must treat it like a cigarette lighter, which is being used for its original...okay, maybe not.
But really, it could be USB anything. The mind boggles.

You know, if you could get a web app to control it ...
