Anyone have any magic tricks for getting an HP 6120 Officejet printer to network with a couple of Macs using an Airport Express as a print server? We had it working in the old apartment, and now I can't remember how we did it. (So far the Just Plug It Back In The Way It Was In The Old Place method has failed to yield satisfactory results.)

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!
Yeah, the 8100, 8500 cases were some of the worst designs ever. You had to completely remove the processor, all the expansion cards, and pull the motherboard to upgrade the RAM.
Heh. I mean, damn.
I was annoyed that replacing the HD of an iBook required major disassembly of the laptop, including prying the display apart. Apple recommended against users doing it themselves. (BTW, anyone want a G3 iBook with a dead HD?)
They made replacing the HD easy on the MacBook. I'm planning on replacing the 60MB HD on mine with something far larger, so I can store my 60MB of music on it.
BTW, anyone want a G3 iBook with a dead HD
I do. Andi's iBook has a dead C on the keyboard and I could use the spare parts as spare parts. Or her hard drive in yours.
I really wish her previous Mac laptop (The one bought from Noisedesign, A powerbook G4) hadn't encountered a blunt force injury right at the center, including shattering the Hdd. She loved that thing.
How much do you want for it?
Does this:
seem like a good value for pretty much going on the internet and/or using in the costume shop to take notes/type out emails to send later (no internet in costume shop). Frankly, I am attracted by the flexpay option that HSN gives.
I'm caving and going back to Firefox. Camino is not as cool and Opera isn't fitting my style.
Extensions I should install? (I've got Tabbrowser extensions, greasemonkey, an extended opera-style statusbar that shows time and page size and images loaded, FireFTP (in case I don't want to use Cyberduck for some reason), ImageZoom, AdBlock Plus, and Foxposé. I've also got Greasemonkey - any cool scripts I should be sure to get?
- DownloadThemAll (makes downloading a bunch of files from one page a breeze)
- Linkification (converts text links in to clickable ones)
- It\'s All Text! (compose posts like this one in your favorite text editor)
DownloadThemAll rocks, btw. I just used it today and it was very handy and timesaving.

Ha! I have a G3 Powerbook with a dead HD. Remember just over a week ago when I said I thought it was nearing its lifespan? I had my browser open to the Apple Store when it stopped spinning.
I honestly STILL haven't found a text editor I love on OS X. I'll take suggestions for that, too, as I mostly still use vim in a terminal. So I don't think I'll get ItsAllText for now. That linkification thing looks cool, though, so thanks! And I already got DownloadThemAll, right after posting here.
Firebug is the best thing EVER. I already used it to deconstruct the forum software for my website and fix something in my custom theme.
