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!

Sadly, any friends that I might be able to sell my current TiVo to, I've already converted to the wisdom of TiVolove, and they already HAVE them.

i'm in the market for a tivo, meara. what are the specs on the one you want to sell?

Oooh. Tiggy with the tempting! It's a 60 hour, Tiggy. Series 2. Has always worked fine for me--I bought it...hmm....almost 2 years ago--it was in March.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

DH has a new iMac G5 in the other room (17", 1.8Ghz, Superdrive).

I have envy.

I also have a question. Our printer is a serial printer connected to my (WinXP) computer. I know the instructions for getting the iMac to use the printer are somewhere in the manual, but if someone here knows off the top of their head, it'd probably be faster...

(Okay, and he just sing-songed "I love my new computer, la la la!" from the other room. That's just not nice.)

We've named it Angelus.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Hah!

I presume the G5 is running OSX. Are your computers networked? The easiest solution would be to network the computers and access the printer through the network via the IP address using the Print Center in OSx.

Yeah, he's definitely begging for a "well I hope it keeps you warm on the couch at night" comment now.

You're not the only one.

That reminds me, aren't we supposed to be building a franken-computer for you?

Should we do this Sunday or Monday?

Art Crawl!!!

Jessica -- perhaps you should have named it "Buffy", because it seems to have turned him evil.
