(i read that the apple user base has just broken through the 4% level for the first time in a long while) the kids have a frightfully old G3 (1997 "beige" vintage, older than my son), which despite its decreptitude hosts OS X 10.4 Tiger. the wife has an ibook running OS X 10.3. my OS is linux; the house has 1 1/2 linux machines (the 1/2 is a dual-boot thinkpad), or 3 1/2 if you count two TIVOs on the LAN. the other 1/2 is the XPP half of the dual boot thinkpad, the id against the superego as it were. XPP is unfortunately mandatory for my school work. sitting under my desk is a mostly powered-off solaris 9 SPARC machine on which i periodicaly consider installing solaris 10 for no particularly legitimate or sensible reason. -rei On Jan12 18:40, bruce wrote: > Thanks Adam, > > I'll save it to remember how to refurbish my three G3s! > > >He does other, more traditional work as well that is quite beautiful. > > Can you show some of it, please? > > B. > > On 12-jan-2006, at 17:21, Adam Bridge wrote: > > >Hi thanks - actually it was taken about 1:40 PM!
