Willow ,'Conversations with Dead People'
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!
Tech support says there's nothing they can do if I don't have Tiger installation discs, and I should just bring it into the Apple Store. Which...no. It weighs a fucking TON.
But it did occur to me that I have the installation discs for MY G5 at home, and I could just bring them in. There's no reason that shouldn't work, right?
Yes, those disks will work.
Now I just have to remember where I put them. Fortunately, my apartment is less of a black hole than this office.
Does anyone know where one can acquire an *ahem* client for Mac? There are some shows out there I would like to watch.
Anne, I like Azeurus a lot. It's not the prettiest interface, but it's fast and easy to use.
Ooh! Thanks. I'll see if I can track that down somewhere.
Anne, I like Azeurus a lot. It's not the prettiest interface, but it's fast and easy to use.
Especially if you tweak it from the default install.
My favorite mac BT client at the moment is called Transmission. Do a search on versiontracker. It's not as feature-rich as Azureus, but it takes up less memory and is much prettier if you don't need all the bells and whistles.
I'll give that a try. I've got Azureus loaded and working right now, but it does seem rather more complex than I need.
I really like Bit Tornado but I think there was some issue with the Mac client.
Ah yes, it only comes as source for Mac OSX, so never mind.
Are there shielded composite video cables? I have a problem with a computer I use to play video on the TV. It sometimes gets interference that I think is coming from power cords, I know it isn't the computer's video that is the problem because the interference will remain when the computer is off and I turn the TV to that input. It's not real bad, but irksome nonetheless.
