iMac Turns 10
·
· Score: 1
Accessing *everything* on the original iMac was dead simple. Turn it upside down, remove a couple screws and a panel, unplug a couple of cables, and slide out the system tray. From there you have access to the CD, HD, memory, video memory, and processor card. Hell, even the modem was replaceable. The optical, HD, memory and processor all had third-party upgrades readily available.
I like to compare this to an HP Brio that needed a HD swap. Because of a single screw that attached the HD to the case was in a bad spot, the motherboard and everything else attached to it had to come out. Real smooth there, HP.
This comment is being posted from a Rev D, running 10.2.8, that I overclocked to 366MHz. (At about the same time I added CCFL lighting inside the case. Oddly enough, no physical modifications to the plastic was needed...)
Aside from Youtube videos not playing smoothly, it's decent for casual webrowsing.
They (ATI's marketdroids) announced they had new graphics cards in a new line of G4 Powermacs that were being Steve-noted the next day. (and may have even revealed some specs) All mention of ATI (including a demo, IIRC) got ripped out of the keynote.
Apple was nVidia-only for more than a few months after that. Don't steal the Steve's thunder.
No, because there was no such thing as a 20 bit pointer. You had two 16 bit pointers, a segment and an offset that were added together (with the segment shifted by 4 bits) to generate a 20 bit memory address.
They were selling a USB 802.11G dongle (Model DWG-122, IIRC), one model number, *THREE* different chipsets (each requiring different drivers, only one of which had drivers for other than Windows)
Nothing on the box other than a "A" "B" or "C" in tiny print in a corner.
I seem to remember when Li-ion batteries first came out, they were touted as being "perfect" since they didn't suffer from memory effect... Sure, they're better in a lot of ways, but they're not nearly as good as they were first hyped.

I've seen a couple systems where UFS was used as a OSX boot volume.
Of note: Some software packages (Macromedia, don't know about later releases.) have *severe* trouble executing from UFS volumes. T'was a bitch getting that figured out. Also, instructions for modding the startup image (modding bootx) don't work. (hidden bootx)
Yeah, but back then recordable discs were rare and expensive. ISTR Apple selling a 5-pack of DVD-Rs for $40 or $50, and that was quite reasonable at the time.
USB wireless dongles using the RT2500 chipset aren't too hard to find, and they do have OSX and Linux (well source anyways) drivers. http://www.ralinktech.com/supp-1.htm

Ok, I just ran 'top' on a Rev. D iMac (366MHz G3) running 10.2.8 and held down the mouse button.
No change in CPU.
I seem to recall that Jim Mallon has stated that he has the first three KTMA episodes and the KTMA pilot locked away in a safe.

"just the subnet" is a programmed limitation of the worm, rather than an inherent limitation.
In other words, it *could* be a Code-Red type worm rather quickly, if the author chooses to modify it to target outside the local network.
(Unless, of course this attack is non-routable... experts?)
Which showed it not twice, but *three* times, and also mentioned that YouTube was being sued over it.
Way to get publicity, NJTA!

You got the quoting backwards
I've 'dialed' numbers by tapping it out on the hook button. ...more often than not, I'd get somebody random.

No. Really.
For the homework of one of my astrophysics classes, we calcuated that you could, if the cable was not the same thickness along it's entire length.
For steel cable, it had to be 162 (IIRC) times thicker at the point of highest tension than at the bottom. Minimum(no load).
Or something like that.
Seriously,
I'm sick of every thread about music having a post or three dozen bleeting out
ALLOFMP3.COM *ZOMG* ITUNES SUX0RZ!!1!
Every post that mentions AllofMP3.com should be modded "-5 Idjiot"
Anyone else verify this?
Have you tried the new driver that is specifically for 10.4? (the 10.2/10.3 driver will not work)

Face it, digital oscilliscopes suck. Too much aliasing on shaky signals, and not enough resolution in x/y or t.
Long live analog O-scopes!
